again????

That was a bit quick even for Mister House's standards...

[Like he's kind of worried but also just supremely frustrated.]

He was acting so weird though.

[So maybe that had something to do with it?]

no shit
he was telling everybody else to do deadly experiments
and i figured he just lost whatever was holding onto his jackass filter
since he basically stopped caring about anyone at all beyond what info they could provide
but i didnt think he was going to jump back into it that quickly himself

[He rubs his face. The best he hopes is that he won't be such a dick when he comes back. If he comes back.]

how are you holding up though

[Quark wonders if it was even worth it in House's mind. If he even learned anything that he can use in the future or if, in the end, it was really just a big waste of time. Quark bets it was a waste of time. There's no way he thought his plan through in the best possible way while he was acting so crazy.

But, Quark isn't really sure there's much to be said about it, and he doesn't want to rag on House so much when he does want to see the guy again, so he answers the question instead.]

I'm alright.
As good as I probably can be.
Just trying to get better but I hate how I feel so powerless right now.

[It's not a new feeling, but being this impaired takes it to a whole new level.]

[This is not the easiest topic, but it's still better to focus on than the rest of things going down.]

i cant blame you for feeling that way when youre injured that way
just remember you still did good trying to help everyone
and that taking care of yourself is whats important right now
are you sticking with watson still

[And Mycroft is dead again... along with Sheena. And Sherlock still isn't back. John's fairly done with all of this. He just wants to find Mary and get his friend back.]

Does anyone know what happened to them?

Please tell me Gregory's death was an accident... He's not really trying to overtax the system, is he?

Doubtful.
It was probably an experiment.
He usually dies on purpose because he's trying to prove something...or someone killed him.

Also he hates being called by his first name.

[Just in case chaos cares at all.]

House, then.

How many times he has he done this?

[ Well, there's that House guy Brian told him about, smack dab in the middle of the list. Cool! He'll have to wait a while to actually ask him anything, then. ]

looks like we're seeing some repeat offenders here. where exactly were they last, if anybody knows? 'cause i think it might not be a bad idea to keep away from there for a little bit just in case.

Mister House is an expert at making even the tamest of places become a deathtrap.
I think it's just a issue with him as a person.

[Does the total done-ness translate to text because boy does he sure hope so.]

[ Good job, Quark, he's laughing. Vasquez wasn't expecting that sort of response, especially not coming from the kid of all places-- still, he appreciates that particular level of rude. ]
somebody's going right for the throat
i'm not sure if house pissed you off or you're just in that mood. either way! keep it up, it's gold. and i mean that without sarcasm.

(i'll keep that in mind if i ever see the guy in person, though. figure there's two possibilities, here-- one, he's really unlucky, or two, he's trying to get himself killed. i'm not sure which it is.)

[He'll blame it on the face and lack of painkillers. All this boy wants is a nap and some root beer.]

haha I'll do what I can

[It feels kinda nice to make someone laugh, even if it's over such an awful subject!]

He didn't really piss me off, though.
I just think he's going too far right now, even by his own standards.
There's science and then there's madness, right?
I get what his goal is but I think there are better things we could spend our time doing, especially with how dangerous things are around here.

[ Quark deserves both of these, honestly. Or at least a high five. ]

if i had any star stickers to hand out, you'd get one.

well yeah
[ Hooold on a sec. ]
.......wait is he actually making a point to die as much as possible
because that's a little fucked
[ Whoops. Language, child, mistake. Then again, Quark's probably heard worse by now, so Vasquez can't say he's that upset about the slipup. ]

NO
MORON
FUCKING MORON

I agree.

[This had gone beyond the point of taking a risky gamble for science. It's just masochistic.]

i am angry and sad and angry

Well that's no good. Anyone know what happened here?

[The soft sounds of shaky fingers scrolling on a text screen.]

No, you've all...asked that. That's...a thing. Greg I half expect, but Mycroft seemed like he still had his brain in his head the last time I talked to him. I just expanded the spreadsheet, too.

[After reading/seeing the other responses.]

So I'm guessing this is kind of a normal thing around here?

[All he can see is much more exasperation than actual mourning.]

the dying part, yeah
as for how often two of these particular people have wound up on this list lately, a little less so. real close together time-wise, too.

guessing you're new because i haven't seen your. anything around before?
you'll get used to it pretty quick.

Yeah, I'd rather not get used to dying.

I'm new, yep. I'm Peter Quill, also known as Star-Lord.

[He's proud of Star-Lord.]

[ Oh, alright. He can oblige the guy a video chat if that's what he's going for. Texting just involved a lot less preening, and he has to look presentable for this-- ]
[ The suit he's wearing's clearly had plenty of care taken to keep it in good shape, in spite of the conditions they're in. His hair's neatly combed, although perhaps not as much as it could have been; but thanks to the swathe of static obscuring his face, the only really defining feature visible is that stupid golden pinky he's got. As for the obvious problem with his video feed, Vasquez doesn't seem to notice. ]

Pretty good mentality to keep, buddy. You hold on to that, now.
[ He crosses his arms-- whatever expression accompanied the movement suffers the same visual fate as his face. Presumably, he's looking at least a little incredulous at the title, going off of his tone-- ]

Star-Lord.
[ Yeah, nope. Not using that one as an actual title. But there's probably a story to it, and he could use something to kill the time; might as well ask. It's not like he has anything better to do. ]
Where'd you pick that one up? If you just decided to call yourself that for not much reason, I'm demoting you to Star-Dude, effective immediately.

I'll do my best? [He's too busy staring at the weird static.] You have a lousy feed, bro, your signal's messed up.

If you must know, it's a nickname my mom gave me. I thought it would make a great outlaw name. Code name, if you will.

Great-- I'll have to bring it up with IT. [ Vasquez gives a frustrated sigh, scowling down at his tablet. He'll have to try tinkering with it later-- there's gotta be something he can do about it, right? ] The tech here sucks. It's like nobody's ever heard of holo-anything--
[ Aaand he's grumbling. Judging from the way the feed shakes, he's tried giving the tablet a good thwap, which...really only succeeds in making things visually awful for a few seconds. ]
Is that better or worse, now?

--wait, you let your mom pick out your outlaw name? That's...honestly gold right there. Good job, Star-Dude.

Yeah, tell me about it--nope, it sucks worse now.

[--hey!]

She didn't, it was just her regular nickname for me! She never found out about me being an outlaw!

Oh for goodness' sake. Do we still have anyone present who can perform a good lobotomy? Watson? Strange?

[John's really not in the mood, and he's seen what kind of raging arsehole Beckett's turned into since reviving. Maybe it's petty, but...]

Ethical doctors don't perform lobotomies, Mr. Beckett.

I await your brilliant alternative proposals as to how to stop him from breaking the revival mechanism and undoing us all. [Flat, with just a hint of exasperation.] We're not in your cosy little world full of cosy little rules, John.

I dunno. How about someone stay with him? Talk to him? Physically stop him from doing it? If he's suicidal, then he needs therapy, not someone cutting into his brain.

Edited 2017-07-14 14:57 (UTC)

You say that like half the town hasn't tried already. Extensively. I think with diagrams? And punching. The punching was enjoyable.

Then maybe the other half needs to get in on the action. It takes a village.

Yes, because our highest purpose here is to provide therapy for Gregory House. [Just saying it makes him sound like he might throw up.] A lobotomy is faster. And more fun.

Our highest purpose is to get as many of us out of here alive and fully functional as possible. That includes him. And I'd have to agree on the faster, but it's really not fun.

Now how would you know if you've never tried? Be a bit more open-minded.

[was that a pun jfc]

Piss off!

[John hangs up.]
