I can't be the only person here with a wardrobe full of dry-clean only clothing. Considering the laundry room isn't exactly equipped to take care of it, what methods have the rest of you been using?

[Private to Mindy]
We're overdue for a meeting. Level 6 common room, after dinner. NOT OPTIONAL.

I want you to tell me everything you remember about port. [He figures he doesn't need to specify which port.] In person, preferably.

[Filtered to Miss Parker, added later]
You're on inventory, right? And congratulations, on graduating. I know it's belated.

[OOC: Like so many, Arthur's going to pretend the flood never happened. That's right, he's not even going to give a cursory "WELL THAT SUCKED." The only indication that he's pissy is the fact that, well, EVERYTHING'S TEXT BECAUSE HE DOESN'T WANT TO TALK TO YOU JERKS. Also, his hideous solicitation post is now retroactively encrypted-- well, Arthur-encrypted. He's probably decent, but not better than any of the tech types here.

ALSO. He's hanging out in the laundry room right now, sitting on a machine that he accidentally overloaded with all of his bedding ~~because it's unclean~~. Fun Fact: Arthur doesn't actually do his own laundry back home. SO HE IS IGNORANT and has been barely scraping by on the Barge. SO IF YOU WANT TO HANG OUT WITH HIM, SPAM AWAY.

And sorry for the crap post. I have awful writer's block today.]

[There's a pause for a few minutes as he considers, then he responds.]

Okay, you have my attention. Tentatively. Right now? I'm just another warden. I used to run the library, while the Doctor was away.

That's all I can ask for.

Are you a friend of the Doctor's?

[HE CAN WORK WITH FRIENDS OF THE DOCTOR. Maybe. If he has to. They might have Doctor cooties, though :|]

No. I only spoke with him a few times.

[COOTIES AVERTED.]

He's not trustworthy. [Says the super-hypocrite.]

How long have you been here? I'm new. Two months, odd.

Why not? The same, actually. Two months. Enough time to see how things run-- or don't-- around here.

I've known him for centuries. He serves his own interests.

Then you've seen how little difference there is between the two classes. We're the same. If you're our way out, we're yours, and the ship's against us.

Do you have any special skills? We need to use everything we have to learn more, and to protect ourselves.

I was a research librarian before I got here. For the New York Public Library. My skills tend towards books and information.

[Okay, he will not be remarking on how useless being good with books seems on the Barge. If Arthur had said 1337 h4x0r, he would be much more interested.]

[On second thought, nah, he will remark.]

Books.

[SORRY BRO, he won't tell you about his mind raping skillz until AT LEAST the third date.]

Books. Is there something wrong with that?

[And the Master gets distracted by, let's say, the Seventh Doctor appearing at the end of the hall he's texting from, and takes evasive action. By the time he's finished ~~running scared~~ gracefully retreating, his attention span has wandered. Thread-dropping. The least of his evils.]

[He'll remember you seem like you have potential, though, Arthur. For a warden.]

[Private - Text] I am far too lazy! Woo~ I have no idea where I'm going with this thread, either.

[Private - Text] NOR I.

[Private - Text] This is what happens when you thread because you're bored at work.

[Private - Text] Yeah, I confess... I was in the same boat. GO OFFICE JOBS.

[Pseudo-Spam] They are just that fantastic, office jobs.
