My, my, this is quite the development. Get unlawfully incarcerated, get a free Skype account and a reject Xbox headset. Microsoft ditched this design for a reason, but it's good to know that access to social media isn't limited to the footloose and fancy free. They can cross being biased against the criminally charged off their would be lawsuits -- if any of these charges happened to be valid, that is. You seem to be lacking a proper judicial system. Get one. The Big Brother look isn't good a look on anyone, and I have zero interest in playing along with your little game of transdimensional authoritarian checkers, Stalin and Mussolini. [ that'd be you, conscienti and veridical. ]

As for the pocket placement itself, sans your little list o' crimes... [ a shrug of indifference. ] As a good friend of mine once said, "Go to heaven for the climate, hell for the company."

[ not like he's got anything better to do -- at least, not at the moment. give it time, he'll grow bored and restless, and start rattling the bars on his underwater cage soon enough. neither will stop him from being difficult, though. ]

Anyone know if this thing happens to do Guitar Hero?

I'm - not sure that would convince me. [ particularly because she wouldn't understand it, and even if she did, that's not necessarily proof. ] How are you - here? Why would they take you? [ obviously people have been imprisoned for far less than jaywalking -- and jaywalking too -- but somehow 'famous well-known scientist' doesn't fit the idea in elena's head when she thinks of all the other inmates, from so many different worlds. ]

[ you'd be surprised. this innocent face isn't as innocent as it seems. the man who was once a peaceful futurist grew bitter and tainted in the years following his staged death. he's committed his fair of jail-able acts and even has blood on his hands, though he'd insist the cabal side of that was perfectly justifiable and needed to be done.

unwilling to give her the real answer, he holds up his hands and tells her what a british prime minister once told him. ] "Illegal" use of electricity. Whatever that means. Also, they seem to frown upon faking your own death. Apparently getting world powers off your back is taboo.

	I didn't fake it, per say. Called in a favor. Pays to have friends in high places. Needless to say, I've been quote-un-quote dead since the 40s and it's been smooth sailing under the wire since. [ shrug. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ right. ] And you managed that by building a time machine? [ really, it's either he's lying about who he is or he's an immortal being - elena doesn't pause to wonder what it says about her that option b seems more likely and comfortable to her. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

No. I make a point not to mess with time. Too many variables, uncertainties, and possible paradoxes. As interesting as it is, it's not worth the trouble in the long run. [ another shrug -- he's full of those today. ] Let's just say I conducted a few blood experiments in the 1880s and presto, change-o, accidental longevity.

[ not a lie! but also not the whole truth. he excels at delivering those these days. ]

[ elena knows a thing or two about exploiting the convenience of partial truths. the way her life has went, the things she's had to say and do and keep to herself? let's just say more than ever she believes trust has to be earned; you can't just magically hand it over.

and that goes both ways.

in other words, she is sure whether this is the truth or a truth... there's probably more.

but for now, accidental longevity will suffice in muting her for a moment. her eyes grow wide and round; she blinks. she believes it's possible, because what isn't at this point?

after a moment of processing, she nods. (she's doubting how someone could "accidentally" find the key to immortality.) ]

So you weren't looking for it?

To tell you the truth, my dear, [ and this was the truth ] we didn't know what we were looking for. What we did was ambitious, but also extremely reckless. It was, in hindsight, foolish of us to go into tampering with such things blind, but at least we had the sense to experiment on ourselves instead of willing or unwilling test subjects. [ or animals, god forbid. ] What we found varied somewhat from person to person.

	[ elena can't help it; the sense of recklessness and ill-action tesla describes is one that evokes in her curiosity and concern and dread. she wonders what they were hoping to find, if they didn't know what to look for. ] What kind of experiments? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
