[....from Umeda's office, where the door is closed for once, comes the sound of Blade Runner.]


((OOC: Everyone and their mother, including Akiha and Io, have dropped in this last little while; Umeda's indulging in his comfort movie. *g* Anyone can feel free to jump this post to catch the movie with him or harass him after it to cheer him up; this post isn't for anyone specific -- I just didn't think I could manage a main-comm post that might hit a few thousand again, but anyone's still free to come and bug Umeda. Got an appointment? Meant to return something to him? Heard about the drops? Come by and say hi.))

. . . . I think the talking about this is way worse than knowing the answers to the questions

[playingdoctor]

Okay, in that case, shut up for about five minutes, because Harrison Ford's being cool.

[...stares at the movie on his computer]

. . . [sits there and thinks about that question and concludes he has bad taste in men ._.]

[EXPLOSIONS! OMG SHE'S DEAD JIM SHE'S DEAD! AHHH HELL HE's GONNA FALL! -- SAVED! WOW, WHAT A STUNNING RESCUE AT WHAT A TRAGIC and vaguely homogay COST.

AND THEN HAPPILY HET EVER AFTER MAYBE IF THEY SURVIVE EVERYTHING THAT'LL HAPPEN AFTER THE ENDING]

Man, I love that movie. So, whatcha thinkin'.

[thebackburner.livejournal.com]

Well I feel better after watching that.

[playingdoctor]

Who the hell wouldn't, seriously?

[thebackburner.livejournal.com]

I gotta improve my stunt techniques!

[playingdoctor]

Stunts, huh? I actually dunno that much about what your team does.

[thebackburner.livejournal.com]

It's an A-T team, A-T!

[playingdoctor]

Oh right, Zexion told me a bit about that before I saw you guys that time. They don't have A-T where I'm from.

Well, why don't we get back to work on your legs so you can get back to work on it sooner rather than later?

[thebackburner.livejournal.com]

They don't have them where anyone's from. It's really weird, like if bicycles were missing.

[nods] Okay. . . t-that's why I came by, yeah.

[playingdoctor]

Yeah, I can only imagine. I know some people from some pretty bizarre worlds.

Right. Up on the table. Want another movie on in the meantime? I downloaded the first Die Hard movie the other day so I could have it fresh in my memory for watching the latest one. It's pretty awesome for a movie where one of the main antagonists is played by a male Russian ballet dancer.

[thebackburner.livejournal.com]

Die Hard? That'd be awesome, yeah -- wait, are you shitting me about the ballet dancer?

[up he goes o/ ]

[playingdoctor]

A Russian male ballet dancer who once caused an international incident by defecting to a USA ballet theatre, I am so not shitting you. It's Karl, watch for Karl.

[sets it up on the computer, rolls up Kazu's pant legs to the knees and gets to work on his lower legs for now.]

[yaaayyy leg fixings that don't involve rape]

How the fuck do you cause an international incident with ballet? It's not like the teams can have a GIANT BALLET THROWDOWN or anything.

[playingdoctor]

Cold war, kiddo. The KGB even kidnapped his wife from what I've heard. I guess if you throw over ballet, you throw over mother Russia.

[These are innocent, non-rapey fingers POKING OUT ALL THE PAINFUL AND TENDER SPOTS IN YOUR LEGS]

[thebackburner.livejournal.com]

[blinks] Cold war?

--Ow aghbn [shuts up once he is PREPARED]

[playingdoctor]

Either they didn't have that in your world or you slept through all your history classes, huh? The arms race? United States versus Soviet Union in "Don't blow me up, because if you blow me up I'll blow you up with bigger and worse weapons"?

[oho there's a knot, I can feel it. And you know what, I am getting that knot, I am like. Murdering that knot gently and slowly.]

[thebackburner.livejournal.com]

Ohhh uh. I fffuck - I hate history, that's when I catch up on sleep. Maybe someone shoulda told me a ballet guy caused a crazy weapon battle with Russia.

[playingdoctor]

Yeah, see, that's why I always have fun substituting when other teachers can't make their classes. This tender?

[thebackburner.livejournal.com]

That's pretty cool. Yeah it is, kinda.

[playingdoctor]

That and I'd get to beat up the kids who weren't payin' attention.

Huh, okay. How about this? Sharp or dull pain?

[thebackburner.livejournal.com]

. . . . D-Dull.

[playingdoctor]

Okay. Your knees been aching at all recently? [touch touch touch]

[thebackburner.livejournal.com]

[BLOCKS OUT BAD FLASHBACKY THOUGHTS]

A little, yeah. But it's sort of just that throb you get after a really hard practice, and I do all my stretches and warm up and down, so it hasn't been getting worse or anything.
