002: Video
[It's Saturday morning and Bruce's NV is propped against something to show him seated with a cup of something (tea, considering the string and tag hanging over the cup's lip) in the foreground. People move behind him, some holding cups of coffee before they take seats out of the camera's view. Looks like he's at an outdoor cafe. It also looks like he's found a charity that offers clothes to the poor and/or new arrivals because he's wearing a slightly dingy pale green button-down shirt with the cuffs rolled up over his forearms and a couple of buttons left open at the collar.]
Hiring in Siren's Port doesn't go the way it does most other places, does it? I couldn't give the panel at Siren's Port University my CV and published papers for examples of my work, but a few days of filling white boards with equations seems to have done the trick. It's much faster than hiring back home, too, but I guess there's a lot of turnover around here.
In addition, I'm offering my services as an after hours tutor while the days are long and until I go home, whenever that may be. If you need help with math or science up to the post-graduate level in most disciplines, contact me [he leans forward and swipes his fingers over the display, and a link appears at the bottom of the video screen] and we can make arrangements.
In the meantime, I'm at Cafe Bijan, and there are a few people who have been helpful to me since I arrived that I would happily buy a coffee. [He smiles, and the humor is meant mostly for himself and maybe one other person.] Unless you don't drink... coffee.

I'm not over it, but I have a lot of experience in ending up places I didn't plan to be. The first things to do are get clothes, food, and a place to sleep, then worry about higher level needs. A university is a good place to get access to equipment I couldn't get in a homeless shelter.

Didn't catch your name.

I didn't throw it yet; it's Bruce Banner.

Leonard McCoy. If you need any help poking around the science community, I can try to give you a hand.
no subject
Good to meet you. Do you prefer Leonard? I won't say no to help. I'm supposed to meet one man who's been looking into the Core, but the more we share information and skills the better chance we have of actually learning something useful.
no subject
The core's a tricky subject since they don't really let anyone close enough to really study it, and tampering with it tends to upset any sibilance to balance this place has.
no subject
Tell me a little more about yourself, Leonard. Where are you from?
no subject
Twenty-third century Georgia, and before you ask, "the future" isn't nearly as exciting as everyone's anticipating. What about yourself? You seem rather down to earth for a scientist. No offence.
no subject
I'm not sure how down to earth I am. You just haven't seen me on an off day.

I'm not a dragon or a demon. I had a lab accident.

So lab accident, i'm with you so far. You know that's how Teflon was created.

Okay, don't get you riled up, check.
[But now he's curious, forgive him.] Indulge me, what exactly do you mean by "extreme"?
