[There's a quiet crunching sound before Mulder speaks up, sounding thoughtful.]

Show of metaphorical hands. Or antennae, whichever you're partial to: Who here has been kidnapped for a special one-on-one date with our captors? I'd like to arrange an off-journal meeting to speak about your personal experiences if anyone happens to have some free time. It shouldn't take long, just a few minutes. I'll be hanging around the shops in town most of the day, I've got some... supplies I've been meaning to find. [Still looking for a basketball, woe and alas.] We can always head elsewhere from there, though.

I understand that it's a sensitive topic for most people, and it's all right if you'd rather not talk about it. Or if you'd rather be anonymous, just slip a note under my door detailing anything you can remember about the experience itself. Anything at all, before, during, after. Your answers will be kept in confidence. I'm in Community Building 7, Floor 2, Room 10.

I learned how to keep others happy; my leader was the one who was good at making others angry. I'll simply do as he did.

[She'll be worried/excited for him.]

I'd say it's worth trying anything, to see how they'll respond.

[Mulder is definitely going to be excited too.]
survivethesiren: (I wont say a word)

Private

[personal profile] survivethesiren 2011-06-04 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
Perhaps I should come over soon, so we can discuss this away from the prying ears and eyes.

Private

[identity profile] ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com 2011-06-04 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
That sounds like a good idea to me. I'll be back to my place in a few.
survivethesiren: ([emotion] What my eyes have seen)

Private

[personal profile] survivethesiren 2011-06-05 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
All right. Just know that my appearance isn't...well. Just attempt not to stare.

[ooc: go to action?]

Private ---> Action

[identity profile] ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com 2011-06-05 06:18 am (UTC)(link)
[ooc; Yep! XD]

I'm sure you won't be the strangest individual I've ever seen, but I'll promise not to stare anyway.

[Gem knocked on his door, shifting on her feet. She is wearing a pair of pants and a blouse. She has finally started to allow others to see all the circuitry laying within her pale skin, the soft white-blue glow.]

It's Gem.

[Mulder throws away a pile of sunflower seeds by way of cleaning the place up, on his way over to the door. He opens it with a curious look, but like he'd promised, he doesn't really stare. He's pretty intrigued though.]

Come on in, feel free to take a seat and get comfortable.
survivethesiren: ([smile] intuition)

Action

[personal profile] survivethesiren 2011-06-07 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
[She gives him a smile, taking the time to get a good look at him, before moving inside, finding a seat on a nearby couch.]

Humans...enjoy clutter, don't they?

[It isn't a judgement, just an observation]

Action

[identity profile] ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com 2011-06-07 09:16 am (UTC)(link)
[All the stacks of papers and books he has scattered around... yeaaah, he can see what she means.]

It's probably a comfort thing as much as anything else. Though I've met a few humans who keep things surprisingly tidy.

Action

[personal profile] survivethesiren 2011-06-15 10:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[She nods]

Clutter isn't something we have much of in the Grid. Most things are...utilitarian. Everything with purpose, even if just for aesthetic reasons.

Action

[identity profile] ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com 2011-06-16 07:08 am (UTC)(link)
Has it been hard to adjust to being around us humans and all the clutter?
survivethesiren: (well you made the choice)

Action

[personal profile] survivethesiren 2011-06-16 03:39 pm (UTC)(link)
[She paused, and after a moment, nods. Might as well admit the weakness.]

I struggle with Us--humans. I'd only met two of you before coming here. And I knew little of your world.

Action

[identity profile] ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com 2011-06-18 05:00 am (UTC)(link)
We'd be just as out of place in your world, I'm sure. But we're not so bad, at least most of us... Do you always appear in a human form, then?
survivethesiren: ([normal] side view)

Action

[personal profile] survivethesiren 2011-06-19 10:03 pm (UTC)(link)
You fit in better than you think. Users were once worshiped as Gods. And why would you not? You held the power to create and destroy at will.

[She nods]

Yes. Here...let me show you.

[She pulls her disc off of her back, and slowly starts to let her fingers play out against the holographic display that shows up. It almost looks like DNA, in a way--the coding. She holds it out, letting him watch it over]

This disc holds everything I am.

Action

[It all makes sense to him, and Mulder watches now with fascination. He knows enough to get an idea of what it looks like, though he'd definitely be itching to ask his geek buddies their opinions. Too bad they're all home.]

Now that's a cool piece of equipment. It... appears almost biological, though it's in coding...

It was the way he thought things up, I suppose. I am made of pixels, regardless. Hurt me badly enough and I'll shatter.

Action

[identity profile] ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com 2011-06-23 06:41 am (UTC)(link)
That's a really fascinating set-up... [Looks at her, not sure he wants to picture that, but...] Shatter? Really?
survivethesiren: ([castor] the devil you know)

Action

[personal profile] survivethesiren 2011-06-24 03:53 am (UTC)(link)
[She shuts her disc down, placing it on her back--her eyes flash as it syncronizes, and she nods]

Yes. Imagine smashing a plane of glass...it is like that.

[She shrugs]

Happens quite often, actually.

Action

[identity profile] ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com 2011-06-24 07:54 am (UTC)(link)
[Mulder watches, still fascinated.]

Well, I hope it never comes to that happening.
survivethesiren: (RECTIFIED)

Action

[personal profile] survivethesiren 2011-06-26 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sure it already happened.

[She watches him back, her blue eyes studying his face]

Action

[identity profile] ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com 2011-06-26 09:20 am (UTC)(link)
You mean... when you were- what was the word, derezzed?
survivethesiren: ([castor] the devil you know)

Action

[personal profile] survivethesiren 2011-06-28 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
Yes.

[She looks down, suddenly quite interested in her hands]

Action

[identity profile] ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com 2011-06-29 07:24 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sorry... I know it's probably hard to think about. Someday, if and when we get rid of the Malnosso, you'll be free to enjoy this new chance at life you've been given.
survivethesiren: ([emotion] you are such a dick)

Action

[personal profile] survivethesiren 2011-07-02 03:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Or we shall all be sent back because of it. [She tilts her head, smiling softly--something knowing and playful]

You might worry that I am working against my better interests.
