Summary: Parker's crazy labeling of everything wasn't so crazy anymore

Since the evening had been cancelled, Eliot had been home when a new roommate was dropped off at the flat. He wasn't sure what Hardison and Parker were up to, but Eliot had been listening to a football game on the television. The knock at the door came, and he was introduced to the skeleton that was to be their new roommate. Their new fully blind roomate.

As soon as the escort left, Eliot re-introduced himself his own way. "So they decided to stick the blind people together. Not sure if that's smart or crazy on their part. I'm Eliot, again, the partially sightless one. Sixteen paces from the front door to the kitchen, nine to the right when you feel the floor change and you'll be at the wall that separates the living room from what'll be your bedroom. Face left, go around the wall, and you'll be at the door. It's only got a couch in there right now, on the left wall from the door."

Eliot moved back to his spot on the easy chair in the living room. "From where you're standing, there's the living room couch within arm's reach on your right. Once you check your room and dump your stuff, feel free to explore. There are labels literally everywhere. I'll be in here listening to the game. I've got beer if you want some. Hardison and Parker are... somewhere."

"No name tags, I like to travel incognito, Parker," Alec said with a roll of his eyes. "Well if you have to live in a blindfold, you'll be able to find all your cereal."

Hardison nodded, knowing it had to be easier for him an it was for Auggie for many reasons. Number one being he'd spent so long looking for Eliot and Parker that finding them felt like a triumph more than anything, even if they were being kept in like animals. "Well they put you in the best house, just hope you can live with Eliot singing in the shower."

He had in mind some kind of device, the ultimate sight aid, something that would help Eliot get around like he'd never lost his sight at all, it was just going to take some time to develop. He'd find the time though. "Got it, I'll plan out something, get a prototype, see where we end up, no doodads."

Hardison laughed again, he liked Auggie, as much as he ever did like someone new. "Open minded, look at you, you just want to be shifted because you're a closet racist," Hardison said as seriously as he could.

"Why don't you use it as an opportunity to learn another language, other than Klingon?" Eliot told Hardison. He settled back in the chair, putting his feet up on the coffee table. "Don't forget me and Parker are going out again on Saturday, so get us another list of electronics you need before then. It's also Disco night at the club this week - want us to get you a 'fly' suit?" He smirked.

Eliot glanced over at Auggie. "Auggie, if you'd rather cook yourself, everything's labeled in basic Braille. Otherwise, I have breakfast on the table at 0600, lunch at 1315, and dinner at 1900," he said. "I also have a screen reader on my laptop and a money reader if you need 'em. I don't know if the crazies running the asylum gave you anything important."

It was more than apparent the three of them had a well established rapport in place, not just the sort that was built over months spent here, if it had been that long for all of them - Hardison apparently hadn't been there that long, and yet he was a welcome part of the group. No they were close before they'd arrived and it was obvious just in hearing the way they talked to one another not.

"I'll let you know if there's anything I need." He assured Eliot nodding. "I think I'm gonna keep working on getting to know the place before I worry about the tech." That could come later, he wanted to be able to get used to the physical space before worrying about anything else.

"Nice to meet you two." Auggie said facing in the direction of the other two just briefly. "Don't mind me wandering around. I'll do my best not to stare."
