Someone want to tell me what the hell happened? Not the short version; I want the details.

How long was I gone?

[SPAM for Perry Dawsey]
[As soon as he gets his answers, Arthur heads over to Perry's room and knocks on the door. Between Perry's coma and Arthur's temporary departure from the Barge, a meeting's long overdue.]

[OOC: For reference, Arthur disappeared shortly into the Reboot event because he either got sucked out a window or sucked out of one of the panels.]

Someone's going around infecting people with a virus. Have you noticed anyone sticking you with anything lately?

Check in as soon as you get this message.

[SPAM for Ariadne]
[Arthur is sitting by the bed, a glass of water in one hand and a cool washcloth in the other. He dabs at the sweat on Ariadne's forehead, then offers the glass.]

I really think we should get you to the infirmary.

[It's late at night, and Arthur is sitting at the bar, a glass of scotch beside him. He has something in his hand, but it isn't visible, so it's clearly something quite small.]

I've got a question for... anyone who feels like indulging me. [He drops the object in his hand down on the bar, just out of the shot.] What do you dream about?

What I'm wondering is... [He takes a sip of his drink, frowning a little.] After a breach, do you dream as the person you were, or the person you are? [Arthur can't answer that question, himself, since he doesn't dream at all without the PASIV. SUCKS TO BE HIM.]

[Private to Iris]
I found a few articles relevant to our last conversation. Thought they might interest you:

[And attached will be a very brief list of articles about dream sharing technology and how it can be used in psychotherapy and military training. All the good, legal stuff. Nothing about extraction, naturally.]

[OOC: So I changed my mind for the millionth time; let's say for reference thta Arthur was one of the nicer soldiers working in the facility during the breach. So folks are free to remember him being sort of not a jerk.]

[WARDEN FILTER + PERRY; backdated to shortly after this post and this log.]
Just to give you an update on the murder of Agent Sandoval, the party responsible was my inmate, Perry Dawsey. He's in Level 0 now, and he'll be there for the week. If you have any further questions, now's the time to ask.

[Private to Agent Sandoval + Perry]
My name's Arthur; I'm the warden of the man who killed you. [Might as well just get it out there as plainly as possible.] How are you feeling? Do you mind if I ask you a few questions about what happened?

[Private to Ariadne + Perry]
Are you free?

[OOC: As usual, Arthur's filters include Perry; however, that doesn't mean that responses to Arthur need to include Perry!]
paradoxlol: (looking at youuuu)
[There's some tension in Arthur's body-- he's not happy, but he's pretending everything is A-OKAY. If your character would pick up on that, they're welcome to.]

I guess I should do the usual round of apologies. If "Dr. Dreamer" took any of you hostage, I'm sorry. Luckily, it doesn't look like he was a very successful supervillain.

Moving on, I just wanted to let everyone know that I'm reclaiming my position as co-supervisor of the library. If you need anything and Chromie isn't around, you can give me a call. [He smiles. It's tense, but trying to look pleasant.] I was a research librarian back home, [Hahaaaa such a lie.] so I should be able to help you out if you need it.

[Warden Filter]
Just so everyone knows, I'll be keeping an eye on Perry Dawsey until he's assigned. He would be that big guy who made the post about tearing people apart.

Perry's not the type to go out attacking people unprovoked, but if you have an inmate who particularly enjoys poking at people, I'd advise them to leave him alone. And, as you can probably see, it's not a good idea to give him unrestricted access to alcohol.

[Private to Perry]
You're stuck with me until you get a new warden. Deal with it.

[Private to Ariadne]
You, me and the PASIV. Let's have a date the Barge can't interrupt.

[Private to Capa]
I think it's time we caught up with a few drinks.

[OOC: Yup, that's Arthur, just your friendly neighborhood librarian. If you wanna say he took your character hostage during his failed "MAKE GOTHAM SLEEEEP!" plot, go ahead!]
paradoxlol: (you annoy me)
well that was a touching 'welcome back, arthur.' good to see some things never change. [Some things LIKE HOMICIDAL INMATES >CCCC]

[Warden Filter]
red hair, petite, really likes leather. calls herself 'willow.' she's smarter and stronger than she looks, so don't underestimate her.

was trying to get her to lvl 0 after she attacked me. let my guard down after i thought i subdued her. it was a stupid mistake.

[Private to Ariadne]

Where are you?

[OOC: Short and to the point :V]

[Warden Filter]
[The video starts as a shot of Arthur's modern, stylish bedroom, then turns, catching a shot of his hand, where he's holding something, fingers wrapped around it, hiding it from view. It's just a brief adjustment, settling the camera on Arthur's face. He looks tired, hunched over slightly as he sits on his bed. He is not a happy camper.]

My item's not connected to Perry anymore. Who's he assigned to, and how long was I out? [Because this is obviously the result of a Barge Coma.]

[Added later; OPEN TO ALL]
[Arthur's looking like his usual slick self now that he's had some time to recover from the news that he was absent from the Barge for nearly six months and lost his inmate.]

My name's Arthur. I don't know how many of you were around when I was, so I thought I'd make the introduction.

[His expression's somewhat grim, but he quirks the corner of his mouth slightly. It's ALMOST A FRIENDLY SMILE.]

I promise, I'm nothing like Tommy St. James.

[OOC: I'm gonna apologize in advance for being SLOOOOW. My schedule's kind of a mess right now, but I figured Arthur would jump on this ASAP. This post will be edited to include a general greeting to inmates, too, once Arthur's informed that he wasn't in a coma, so, uh, STAY TUNED? DONE.

Also, I'll get to breach tags in a bit.]
paradoxlol: (worried)
[Why is there a mistletoe right above his door? Arthur is filming it for a moment, then he turns the camera to himself.]

You know, I know this is supposed to be festive, but I can't help but feel suspicious, considering last year. [He lets out an irritated sigh and glances up at the mistletoe.] I don't think I'll be taking visitors until after the holidays.

Fucking mistle--

[STATIC.]

[OOC: ARTHUR HAS LEFT THE BARGE. Against his will. Blame the mistletoe. ~HAPPY HOLIDAYS~ BARGE]
paradoxlol: (wtf is this shit)
[Arthur's new and improved communicator is sitting in his cabin after his old one got destroyed by a tornado in the CES, taking a nice shot of his... door. There's no Arthur in sight. This plays for about a minute, then there's a thud and Arthur swings the door open. He's looking... like he just survived a zombie apocalypse. His clothes are torn and muddy, his hair's a mess, his legs are soaked up to his knees, and he's got cuts, scratches and bruises all over. He's even got a few manly cuts on his face. He storms into his cabin and kicks the door shut behind him. He pulls off the remains of his shirt and throws it aside, then notices his new communicator. Stalking over to it, he leans down close to address the audience.]

I hate this goddamn ship.

[END TRANSMISSION.]

[Private to Perry]
[And then a minute later, it clicks on again.]

Did you get hurt?

[Filtered to Capa, Ariadne, Dick, AND OTHER FRIENDS IF I FORGOT ANY]
You okay?

[OOC: ARTHUR HAD A GRAND OLD ADVENTURE. Laugh at him. Oh, and spam's welcome, too.]

Private/Filtered Messages for the Admiral, Kitchen, Maintenance! )

[PUBLIC]
Is the book club still going? I'm not really interested in spending time with a lot of you, and I'll probably think your selections are derivative and insipid, and I usually only hung out in the library to research people and talk to Coyolxuahqui (and her breasts), but I'm bored now that my inmate's broken my ribs. So I need something to fill in the void left by sparring until this heals. Right now, my most strenuous activity is jerking off, which I've already done twice today, though I'd prefer a partner. Luckily, I'm attractive, and many of you are attractive, so I'm confident somebody will lend me a hand.

[OOC: I'm sorry. I'm so sorry /Tennantvoice]
paradoxlol: (worried)
[SEE BEARDLESS ARTHUR. With a black eye and possibly other bruises. Thanks, Perry!]

So, that's the person I would've been if I didn't actually grow up in the last fourteen years. [Douche Arthur was disturbingly similar to teen Arthur. He pauses, like he wants to say something, then clears his throat and says instead:]

I think I'll be putting my plans to grow a mustache on hold after that.

[Individual Messages to Mirror!Arthur's Graduates (Parker, Snape, Loki)]
I'm drawing up a blank on some of my counterpart's memories before the flood. [He's not.] Do you remember anything about your time together?

[Private to Perry]
We need to talk. [Because he knows the dreamsharing jig is up.]

[Private to Arthas]
What did you see when you did-- whatever you did.

[OOC: Some notes on the PASIV! Mirror!Arthur would've been very careful about it, so few people, if any, should really know what it does. He let Mirror!Perry know about dreamsharing, because he thought Perry had a lot of "potential" and could've been a great asset to his team upon graduation, and because he wanted a more "personal" touch in teaching him his life lessons. The inmates he graduated would've been sedated and incepted without their knowledge; HOWEVER. Feel free to have them suspect something, to have a vague memory of a Very Important Dream co-starring Arthur, to be aware of Arthur having a strange machine, etc. ALSO, I imagine that there were probably rumors among wardens and inmates about Mirror!Arthur having some kind of machine that changes inmates, even though only a handful should know what it does. So if you want your character to remember the rumors, they totally can.

ALSO, SARA. If you wanna spam Awkward Times up in here, GO FOR IT.]
paradoxlol: (worried)
Ladies. [YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE >C Arthur holds up his hand, showing off some HIDEOUS NAIL POLISH.] I have to admit, I'm impressed you managed to keep most of the paint in the lines. [Lowering his hand now. THAT'S ENOUGH OF HIS SHAME.] But I don't think I can pull this look off. Anyone have any nail polish remover?

[OOC: CISSIE AND POSSIBLY OTHERS PAINTED ARTHUR'S NAILS AT MARTHA'S HEN PARTY. Because he accidentally intruded while searching for his misplaced communicator. If you want to claim some credit for his woe, you're welcome to.]
paradoxlol: (you can't be serious)
Thanks for that, Admiral, but I didn't need a flood to tell me that cats are assholes.

I think I'll skip the personalized apologies this time. To anyone I pushed, slapped, kicked or sat on during the flood: it wasn't personal.

[OOC: WHOOPS, I posted this prematurely, because Korean keyboards are weird.

...

AND NOW I'M TOO LAZY TO ADD ANYTHING ELSE TO IT, SO ENJOY A VERY BRIEF POST. I'm gonna try to finish up catlog tags uh. Tonight or tomorrow, idfk.]
paradoxlol: (wtf is this shit)
[Warden Filter]
I'm not big on speeches, so I'm going to make this quick.

[Arthur's voice is a frustrated growl right now. He sounds about ready to punch something. Also, he's hanging out by the entrance to Level 0 and keeping his voice somewhat low so Perry can't overhear. This also means that because he's by the entrance, anybody else looking to sneak past him to play with Perry while he's making this post... would have to be invisible and teleport through the door, I guess?]

To those of you having a laugh about Perry's big-screen debut-- [Have some condescension:] and I know some of you are, despite the big W next to your names-- you do realize that he wasn't just "beating up" Rex, right? That part, where he stops moving? He's not unconscious; he's dead. That's a snuff video. It's not a goddamn joke.

I don't give a damn how you feel about Rex. I don't care what he did to you-- and yeah, I was affected along with the rest of you. When you support something like that video, you're not just doing it at his expense. You're doing it at my inmate's. He's not your attack dog; he didn't kill Rex for any one of you, and it's not behavior I want encouraged.

You'd think that'd go without saying, right? I sure as hell thought so. I knew I had to expect some inmates patting him on the back for a major backslide, but I didn't think I'd have to worry about wardens doing it. Wardens sneaking around behind my back to give him positive reinforcement for his actions. Wardens trying to congratulate him. Wardens going against my explicit orders to leave Perry to me. Wardens making it so I've got to keep one eye open for them at all times, when I should be focusing on my goddamn inmate!

Yeah, I know I'm saying "wardens," but what I really mean is Loki, who I've had to chase away three times now. But hell, who knows, there could be more of you who think Perry did a big public service for you.

It takes a lot to turn a man into a calculated murderer. Perry wasn't one before he came here. Now it's my job to push him back to Square One, and I don't need you assholes undermining me and standing in the way.

If I hear about any one of you trying to sneak around to congratulate him, to give him a fucking prize for killing a man, I'll put a bullet in your goddamn head to give you a headache as big as mine. And the only reason I'm not telling your inmates this is I expect you to pass the word if you think your inmate's up to something with him. You know your inmates better than me, so you should be aware of any [Sarcastically:] "budding alliances". Anybody looking to turn my inmate into their personal attack dog better think twice.

Keep a tight leash on your inmates, while I try to do the same with mine. And any unpaired wardens out there might want to try their hands at keeping an eye on Loki, so I can get back to my job already.

[With a disgusted noise, he turns off the communicator.]

[OOC: I WILL NOT GUARANTEE RESPONSES TO THIS. Arthur just wanted to alert the other wardens to 1) Loki undermining him and trying to applaud his inmate's backslide and 2) the possibility that their own inmates will probably try to seek out an alliance with Perry now to take out their own enemies... although that part kinda got lost in his bitchiness :V Anyway, he's not up for playing ~barge politics~ right now, so that's why there may not be responses from him. BUT YOU GUYS ARE FREE TO DISCUSS WITH EACH OTHER, IDC.]
