.008 | Video.

[The video turns on, and Arthur's looking... well, as slick and suited up and uptight as usual.  He's actually pretty relaxed right now, thanks to his night of binge drinking and partying in port, but since he's not like BUDS with any of you, it's unlikely anybody would notice the slight changes in his body language.  He clears his throat, then holds up a MYSTERY BAG.]
 
I'm not wearing this.  I don't care if the Admiral strikes me down or, or turns me into a rabbit for going against orders.  I draw the line at [He points to the bag] this.
 
[Slowly, his eyes drift upward, as though he's expecting retaliation.  When nothing happens, he sets the bag down and moves on.]
 
Oh. And with the Doctor's return, I've resigned from my position in the library.  [Arthur may be all business here, but he's secretly TOTALLY HAPPY about this.  Because damn, librarian was a horribly boring cover, in retrospect.]  It just makes more sense this way. [He offers a slight smile.] So, if you're looking for a book, don't come find me.
 
[Private to Mindy]
I think this is the longest you've gone without trying to kill me.  [A beat.] If you're interested, I'd like to show you what I do.
 
[Private to Hayley]
If you're free, I can meet you on the deck.
 
[OOC: This is assuming, Jae, that the "LOL ARTHUR ALLOWED MINDY TO BUY HIM A COSTUME" thing I mentioned to you is still a go. lolol got his costume now]
