[Day 236] Video/Action/OTA
[It's really only through luck that everything is steady and not like being moved up and down or side to side with his fiddling of the earpiece, but after the incident that was Helen and her weird future communications device he's learned not to mess too much with things. Well, sorta kinda ish, at least he hasn't messed with the thing on his leg.

But the video turns on to one bearded English gentleman standing in front of a weeping willow and he's standing rather steady-ish as he talks because he's not sure how these things work and if jostling it will do something weird to it.]

Last I checked removing a gentleman's clothes and hat was exceptionally rude and not really the best way to insure he is willing to stay in your attempt at a prison. [If he doesn't sound all that pleased, well he's not. At least for a brief moment before he sighs and brushes his hair down.]

But I suppose not everyone has Scotland Yard's sensibilities when it comes to the well fare of it's prisoners nor it's taste in what to give them to wear. Even Lestrade is kinder and I have yet to meet someone as rude as he can be in his line of work. [He pauses to do what amounts to a huff before fixing his hair again because he lacks a proper jacket to mess with and really how rude can you people get giving him a bright orange jumpsuit without a jacket.]

But be that as it may, I suppose I should ask if there is anyone here by the name of Helen, with a similar accent to my own. Blond or brunette, I know two women that share the name and accent and I wouldn't mind speaking to either nor to anyone that knows of them. Or someone who happens to know a different woman from my Helen's [It really sounds weird to say that.] we can discuss similar traits in such ladies if you prefer.

[Okay so that's not the best way to go about introducing himself to people but he doesn't really care especially as he totally forgot to actually introduce himself whoops. This is all said by the way, from Sector 3 where he's been wandering about before settling in near the weeping willow if anyone feels up to poking him there.]

[ of all the things she was expecting today, seeing this particular person pop up on the communicators -- and that particular age, as it is -- was not one of them. for a moment, she freezes, unable to believe her eyes. it's like a trick of some sort, someone's idea of a practical joke.

but no. it's a newbie day.

and it's perfectly logical for him to be here. ]

Dear god, James?

	[...Wow, Helen. Aren't you happy he can't read your mind right now, because wow. He loves you too. But okay squinting, squinting, dark hair check. Knows him, okay good. And not asking how he knows she goes that hair color, okay then.] Well I'm either James or some contraption of Nikola's to look like me. [Yes, yes it's him.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[What was she expecting?] Now Helen, unless that was particularly invasive I imagine I'd rather like that. [James stop.] How was your vacation? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	video; lifelines 2013-09-11 12:20 am UTC (link)
	[ she practically chokes at that. ] Oh, please. As your doctor, I have every excuse to make it less than pleasurable the next time you walk into the clinic for a check-up. [ no. why. don't even ask her that. ] Long. Very long. You know I don't idle well. [ it was awful, james. awful. and she's turned out the worse for it. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	video; notofthisera 2013-09-11 12:30 am UTC (link)
	[UHUH. But no just logging away that bit about her vacation for later, it just confirms when she's from for him. Which really helps. So just grinning now.] Now you wouldn't do that, Helen, otherwise I'd have to return the favor. [And lbr here, with him being from 1898 he's totally capable of it.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ she just gives him a pointed glare for that. ] Where are you? [ she's ignoring the implications of that and instead focusing on where he is. with her luck, jean-luc ~~her not!gentleman friend~~ would see this and imagine the worst. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ROLLING HIS EYES and then looking around...he really didn't pay much attention to signs. WOOPS.] There's a weeping willow here, and I think I saw a pond with some fish in it not to far away. [SO FREAKING HELPFUL JAMES.] And cherry trees. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Give me a few minutes and I'll come find you. If you ask nicely, I'll even bring you a change of clothes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	video; notofthisera 2013-09-11 12:43 am UTC (link)
	If by clothes you mean a proper suit, I'd be ever so thankful if you did. Please. [He even said please.] Unless it's another thing like I'm already wearing in which case you can keep it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	video; lifelines 2013-09-11 12:45 am UTC (link)
	It won't be quite like your suit, but I'll see what I can do. Just do me a favor and stay where you are. [ don't make her hunt for you, james. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If I move any where it'll be to the park I saw. Which should ideally, make me easier to find. [He hopes.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

It should. I'll be there in a few minutes.

[ it will take her more than a few minutes to leave the clinic in someone else's capable hands and go find a suitable change of clothes for him. she manages to find a more modern suit. it won't be what he's used to, but it'll have to do until they can make it to the kiosk to request his other clothes back.

she makes her way into the park, hoping he's there and not still wandering the sector, clothes bags in hand. ]

	[HE'S JUST GOING TO GO THERE AND PROCEED TO FURTHER SPILL YOUR SECRETS, HELEN. NBD. But no, he's just going to be in the park near enough to the entrance for her to find him because it's easier than wandering into it too deeply and he'll just approach when he sees her. That's a smile there on his face yes, and a little worry.] Helen! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ so. just another day ending in y, yes?

he's probably going to get a bit of a shock when she gets closer, as she's wearing something he's probably not used to seeing. look at that. she's exposing skin. what will his future hold? her expression is one of relief when she spots him and she holds out the bag of clothes for him to look into. ]

You're fortunate I was close by.

[ and yet it still took her a while to get there. oops? ]

[Yup, yup.

He's just going to stare a bit, and stare because okay that outfit isn't even close to what she was wearing the last time he saw this version of her. But he just snaps out of it and takes the bag, looking into it as he you know debates how far he can get away with teasing her here for that delay. Logically he knows it was because she was finding him clothes but that doesn't mean she can escape his teasing.]

Indeed, I was beginning to worry I had interrupted you in the middle of something with a gentleman.

[JUST STICKING HIS HEAD INTO THE BAG NOW...]

	[ yes, well, if she'd known he would turn up today, she would have chosen something else to wear. that comment, however, gets a pointed stare from her because it's easier than acknowledging the slight flush creeping across her cheeks at the memory that thought brings up. ] Whatever would give you that idea? I was working at the clinic, James. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	action; notofthisera 2013-09-11 07:57 pm UTC (link)
	[Well now that his head is still firmly attached to his body he's going to look up with the biggest grin ever and look rather proud at that flush.] The polite gentleman I talked to before you showed up here, saying he was familiar with you. [This is primarily teasing but now he's curious.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	action; lifelines 2013-09-11 11:29 pm UTC (link)
	[ she glares at him in response. there's nothing going on here. nothing at all. nothing to see. ] And which gentleman would this be? [ she has a feeling she knows. but she's going to make him work for this, even if her blush isn't. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[He's just going to dig through the bag now and sigh, and shrug and you know play as if he's put out by this entire thing. Because he totally knows what's going on here.]

A captain, something distinctly French in name, Jean-Paul, no, Jean-Pierre? No, that's not it...

[Playing dumb is a go even as he tries to move to watch her face as he runs through names, listen to her voice for little clues.]

[ lies. there's nothing going on here. no one to be jealous of and certainly no one to be jealous of her. ]

Captain Jean-Luc Picard.

[ because her emphasis on the correct title and name doesn't say anything about how she feels towards jean-luc. not at all.

she does, however, reach for a handle on the bag to give it a shake in his direction. ]

Does it meet approval?

[To that he just grins, tilts his head and gets a bit of mischief in his eyes which really helps to hide that twinge, just a twinge because this isn't his Helen, of jealousy. Because he has no claim on his anyway so why should he be jealous of another man over a woman he doesn't even you know, have any sort of claim to a relationship with.

Yup.]

You could have found me a hat.

[...And then maybe because he's curious and maybe because he's a troll and maybe because he actually cares, he asks:]

How long?

[ he has full claim on his helen. he just doesn't know it yet. this one's heart is with another at the moment, whether she likes it or not. ]

There wasn't time and I doubt there's one that would suit your fancy.

[ oh yes, ask her that. ]

I've been here all of 18 days. [ oh she knows what he was asking, but she's not giving him the pleasure of a real answer without dragging it out of her first. ]

	[That's a grunt at the lack of a hat thing, because it's probably true and yet he doesn't believe her. But it's in the spirit of teasing her that makes him push on, grinning as he looks up at her.] And in that time you're blushing over a Frenchman, now I am impressed he must be rather special. [Feel free to hit him anytime Helen.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	action; lifelines 2013-09-16 09:29 pm UTC (link)
	[ she chokes. ] For god's sake, James. [ sob. she inhales sharply. ] Yes. He is special, but there's nothing between us. [ lies and slander, helen. she wouldn't have kissed him otherwise. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
