So. Elections. [ He's hanging out in his apartment, which looks a little dingy, but at least it's clean! ] I fucking love elections.

A special election at that. [ His lip quirks in a half-grin. ] That's pretty nice news to hear. It's an opportunity to make some big changes, at the very least. So who's running? [ and he holds his hands up in front of the camera in a placating gesture. ] Not that I'm scoping for competition, or anything like that! I'm honestly curious to know who's eyeing the spot. [ He pauses.] Wow, that does sound disengenous, doesn't it?

I'm offering help, actually. Not free, but if you're running for office, you would have enough money for a campaign consultant. [ He cringes slightly ] At least I would hope so.

If nobody is, well. [ A shrug. ] That would be quite the shame, wouldn't it?

Oh I wouldn't doubt it. It seems like they get that often enough, huh?

voice;

[axemeaquestion]

Probably. At least back home we were all on the same playing field. And equally freaked out.

voice;

[viced]

Oh yeah? What happened back home?

voice;

[axemeaquestion]

... Uh, well. That depends on how crazy I'm gonna sound to the normal dickhead.

voice;

[viced]

I don't know, I come from a world where I thought it was a good idea to strap on a jetpack and become a superhero for a hot minute, so I don't think you'll sound too crazy.

Re: voice;

[axemeaquestion]

What about zombie apocalypse?

voice;

[viced]

Didn't have any of those, no.

Re: voice;

[axemeaquestion]

That would be the supernatural crazy thing from my world, then.

voice;

[viced]

A zombie apocalypse. Well, that's a pretty shitty situation to be stuck in.

voice;

[axemeaquestion]

That's one understatement.

voice;

[viced]

Yeah, it's a hell of one, I'm sure. I've seen enough horror movies to know how that one goes.

voice;

[axemeaquestion]

Eugh. Don't even get me STARTED on horror movies. George Romero is a god damn liar, and I didn't even LIKE horror movies. Zombies don't shamble. They run and beat the hell out of you.

voice;

[viced]

Shit, George Romero lied? Motherfucker!

Re: voice;

[axemeaquestion]

He is! They run, spit shit on you, barf shit on you, and mutate. MINE do, anyway.

voice;

[viced]

Wait, they fucking spit on you?

voice;

[axemeaquestion]

Yeah, the Spitter's do. They spit burning shit.

voice;

[viced]

Burning--

Wow, that's a hell of a zombie apocalypse.

voice;

[axemeaquestion]

You're telling me. That's not even the worst kind of mutation we saw.

voice;

[viced]

There are worse ones?

voice;

[axemeaquestion]

Mmmhm. I'd call truck-sized zombies practically made of muscle and wanting to punch you into paste worse. We called those ones Tanks... for obvious reasons.

voice;

[viced]

Oh. Yeah they sound a bit worse. Shit, I'm glad 'm not from your world, no offense, I'm sure it's quite lovely when not overrun by the undead.

voice;

[axemeaquestion]

Gee, thanks.

voice;

[viced]

Hey, I said no offense!

voice; ONLY ONE EDIT I SWEAR, I was less than stellarly sober last night

[axemeaquestion]

You're just glad I'm the one who went through hell, got the shit beat out of them, and with mostly everyone I know dead.

[Pause. Whoops.]

--Shit, sorry. Lack of sleep.
