"So far where you are that you no longer see the sun ..."
Who: JT Cole and Ganesh Surendar
When: Saturday, June 26 (backdated)
Where: An unknown v-club, though in a different sector
What: JT and Ganesh are searching out information on the internet.
Status: Closed; complete

"My avatar doesn't look anything like me," Ganesh warned JT as he held the holoband in his finger. "So don't be surprised when you jack in, if you see someone who's a lot... taller."

He'd modeled himself off what he'd thought Americans would find attractive. Tall, blond hair, blue eyes, pale skin... and absolutely nothing like himself. He frowned as he thought about that. It still didn't quite work, even with all the hours of practice he'd put in since he'd gone in with Matt.

With his comment, "See you in a minute," he slipped the band over his eyes, white light flooding towards him suddenly until he reached the end of the tunnel and found himself in the small, dark room in which he'd last jacked in. As he waited, he practiced his walk, stepping casually back and forth, barely keeping from tripping over his own muscles.

His face scrunched up in thought, JT replied, "Hmm, not sure, most clubs I go to are focused on dancing and such. Let's wonder a bit?" He grabs Genesh's hand so they can keep together and takes off down the steps into the main floor. The place was mostly dark, there are some flashing lights, but not enough to really give a good glance at the place. He was fairly sure the code here would stop him from adjusting the look of the room, at least until he was given a membership code. The nice thing about the V world was one could still get a drink and the haloband would cause a similar effect. He glances around the crowd on the way to the bar, pulling Genesh along.

Ganesh was watching the people as JT led him. There were some of them dancing but many of them were gathered around a table arguing about something.

"Do you see any jokers?" He asked in a low tone. "Bollocks, does anyone come into these places as a joker?"

"Oh yeah," JT replied, "but only if they want to be one. I'm sure quite a few nats do it for the fun of it. Should we go and see what they are up to?" He nods his head at the talking group.

"Yes." He nodded though his eyes were wary.

The pair of them walked over to the table, though Ganesh was careful not to come so close that it was obvious.

"Political rallies," one was saying. "We should make our presence known. They'll never do anything unless we force their hands."

"Like those ever work!" yelled back a girl, sneering. "Who are we going to rally to? The Feds?"

JT turned his side towards them to hear better, pretending to talk to Genesh.

Ganesh caught JT's action and stepped in a little closer.

"I don't fucking know," the man shot back. "Maybe we don't rally. Maybe we blow up the Feds. We can't let them keep pushing us down."

This wasn't a hate group, Ganesh thought in surprise. Or if it was, it wasn't the Wild Card they hated.

The girl gestured back wildly, "I'm not saying let them keep subjugating us! Of course not. But a rally isn't the way to go, we going to have a bake sale to fund it too?"

Another man close to JT and Genesh glanced over at them and mumbled, "Same argument every god damn time." He doesn't seem to notice that they are new.

"Do they do this a lot?" Ganesh ventured.

The man rolled his eyes, "Nightly, it seems. I don't think I know you. I'm Turk."

"Turk," Ganesh repeated. Bloody hell, what was he going by? "I'm Carter, this is-" He paused.

"Gray," JT added, smiling. "Nice to meet you."

"You too." Turk hooked a thumb at the arguing pair. "You two jokers then? Nice avatars."

JT nodded noncommitedly, "Thanks, you too." He had noted the whipping tail poking out from under Turk's trench coat.

"No one here keeps their joker," Turk growled. "And we all sit around bitching about how we can't get any respect in the real world." His head whipped around to Ganesh. "What's your joker, Carter?"

"I was born with a detachable penis." Ganesh answered with a completely straight face.

"Hell, boy, that's an ace."

"Not when you've no bloody control over it." He barely managed to look uncomfortable. He had known a joker like that once. "So what is it you people do here?"

"Complain, sometimes plot," Turk replied, shrugging. " There are more active groups out there, ones that accomplishore things but teqire invites. But we aren't completely usesless. What about you Gray?"

JT jerks his head at Genesh, "Boyfrind." At Turks glance at Genesh's croach JT defends himself with "When he's at work I still have something to keep me company."

"What-" Ganesh opened his mouth, then closed it. He hadn't realized that avatars could blush. "You weren't supposed to say that. Honey."

JT smirked and patted Genesh's butt, "Sorry babe, but honesty is the best policy when we are trying to make new friends, right?" He smiled at Turk in indication. Turk chuckled quietly.

Ganesh shrugged. Might as well enjoy it.

"So, is this a regular meeting?" He gave JT's arm a friendly squeeze in return. "Or just one of those places people wander into? That blo- man over there sounds as if he's got an agenda."

"Yeah, he's a loud one," Turk commented, "but I guess we all have an agenda. The hard part is getting everyone to agree on what to do. You guys just stumble in, or someone send you?"

"We just stumbled in," Ganesh said quietly. "It's- all the stuff about wild cards lately. We don't want to just stand by."

The arguing had continued through their conversation, but now seemed to be breaking up. Turk nodded after the girl that had been doing the yelling, "Come on, I'll introduce you around a bit."

"We'd like that," Ganesh answered, grabbing JT's hand so that they didn't separate. It was odd, he thought, how warm his fingers were in the virtual world- Ganesh was so used to anything associated with computers being cold.

"I don't know what you were worried about," JT whispered, hanging back a step or two while Turk greeted his friends, "They seem fine."

"They're not the ones Matt and I met," Ganesh whispered. "That was- some different part of the internet entirely. These are jokers." He said that as if jokers represented security which, to him, they did.

"And the ones with Matt were..?"
