day 210 | video
[ the art of disguise is not merely physical. it runs on many layers, and the ability to replicate and manipulate emotions is just as important as the way one looks. it all comes in handy, though, especially when you're a world-renowned criminal mastermind in a new place with new people and you need to get your bearings.

this is why the residents of marina will be finding themselves in the company of richard brook, the fretful out-of-work actor, rather than the criminal mastermind that is james moriarty. it's only practical, after all; it would be absolutely ridiculous for everyone to be aware of his capabilities right off the bat.

the rumpled-looking man showing on the video feed is rather obviously distressed. he seems more fearful than angry, however -- his voice wavers as he mutters to himself, very quietly. ]

...torture? Murder? Really, I can't --

[ he pauses, and takes a deep breath. ]

I thought we'd been through all this once already. I'm innocent. I didn't do any of those horrible things, not a single one -- all I did was look the part. I swear, I'm being honest, I'll tell you everything all over again if I need to.

[ that tremor isn't just in his voice, now. he's shaking. ]

You've got the wrong man. This is a mistake. Please, just let me go home.

	All right then. [She's glad that someone else has filled him in.] Find a flat, make some friends, see if you can help find a way out. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Not sure how much I could contribute to the escape effort, to be honest. I'd love to try but I'm not the best suited for that kind of thing. [ internal snickering - if jim were jim at the moment, that would be an utter lie. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Probably goin' to want some sorta hobby here then. Passes the time, y'know? Don't think I got your name. 'm Rose Tyler. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I've heard there's an educational center, so that might be fun. Richard Brook. 'S nice to meet you, Rose, despite the circumstances. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mightbelate 2013-03-19 09:09 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, it's interestin'. Nothin' really about this place, but still, lots to learn there. [She gives him a big, genuine smile.] Nice to meet you too, Richard. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What do you do to keep yourself entertained around here? I could use some ideas. [ he mirrors that smile, actually looking like somewhat of a normal person for once. ha ha, funny joke. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	There's lots of events, like this dance that's comin' up and there's a couple of pubs you can look into. The shops are free. There's some classes and the like. I know some people gets jobs, but I haven't done that yet. There's the defense force too. I'm on the research team there. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	semtexed 2013-03-20 03:35 am UTC (link)
	Dances and pubs aren't exactly something I'd expect to see in a prison. But then again, it's already been established that there's not a lot I'd expect here. Defense force? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mightbelate 2013-03-20 03:39 am UTC (link)
	It just keeps comin' too. Every time I think I got a handle on it all, somethin' new comes up. [She nods a bit.] Prisoner run sorta group that helps keep things safe for everyone. You know, like a neighborhood watch sorta. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	semtexed 2013-03-21 12:26 am UTC (link)
	Hm. Is it open to volunteers? [ richard seems innocently curious, for the most part. jim, on the other hand, thinks it'd be a lovely idea to get settled in with those trying to be protective to learn what exactly they're doing. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mightbelate 2013-03-21 01:48 am UTC (link)
	Yeah, you just gotta sign up and be interviewed. [Whether he could pass the profilers interview or not is up for debate, but that's not Rose's concern. He seems perfectly nice to him.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	semtexed 2013-03-22 04:55 am UTC (link)
	That doesn't sound too bad. What's the interview like? [ jim's got no doubts that he can bullshit his way through it. it's kind of his thing. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mightbelate 2013-03-25 10:07 pm UTC (link)
	Usual sort. Ought to be easy enough to get through. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	semtexed 2013-03-26 01:20 am UTC (link)
	Noted. I'll look into it when I'm more settled in. ... thanks for the heads-up. And for not being a prat like you definitely could've. Means a lot. [ layin' it on thick, there. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mightbelate 2013-03-26 02:16 am UTC (link)
	Welcome. [She smiles a little at that.] Most people here are a decent sort. We've all had first days here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	semtexed 2013-03-26 02:26 am UTC (link)
	Yeah. I think it's a bit off that there're people that expect us not to freak out. Would be weirder not to, really. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mightbelate 2013-03-26 02:51 am UTC (link)
	Yeah. Sometimes we get people here who don't freak out much, but not very often. (Reply to this) (Parent)
