Entry #A-1: "A" [Video/Action] [Shepherd's Haven]

[Lazarus checks in looking thoroughly displeased. He's standing in the largest building in Shepherd's Haven, most commonly used for forums and meetings. Today, he's surrounded by fabulous, artistic and delectable patries and sweets. Some are on the tables, set out as if for a banquet, but others are on the floor or in odd, unexected places, like on chairs and sticking to the walls.]

It's the one-year anniversary of our move to Shepherd's Haven. I was going to tell you that in spite of the slime, you're all still welcome to come celebrate and eat some of the food prepared for the occasion in the town hall. You know, in a valiant effort to maintain some semblance of community and normalcy, and to reject sensationalist panic and obsession.

[A green blob drops onto his shoulder. He brushes it off with clear distaste, but from the time he touches it to the time it lands on the floor, it transforms into a platter of cream puffs that land with a resounding clatter.]

...disregard that. If you do decide to come, don't eat anything until you confirm with me that it isn't slime. Right now, that's everything over here.

[He turns the feed over so it's in view of a far less enticing display of healthier and plainer options. Much of it was probably canned or frozen previously.]

[He stared at the blob, gagging a little.]

Ugh, c'mon. How am I supposed to look at food, looking at those things?

Just, y'know... label those or something. You don't want 'em getting mixed with your other stock, right?

[Arthur couldn't possibly complete with someone who wasn't blisteringly stupid.]

I mean... what do they smell like?

[Nail in the coffin.]

[Lazarus could never stand up to just how thick this guy's skull was.]

...Did you lose your sense of smell?

D-Don't act like I'm stupid.

[Except, the nail in the coffin would be--]

That'd be a weakened sense of smell...

[Arthur was definitely taking a big risk, admitting--]

...I don't get what you mean.

[He was better off just calling it quits at that rate. Arthur could only stare vacantly in response and give the one answer he had available.]

But, it's not zero.

Are you talking about decimals? I'm not good at math, man.

[Arthur was essentially begging Lazarus for a more reasonable approach to the explanation.

Even though it was already incredibly reasonable.]

I mean--how small does a number have to be...?

Oh, rounding! Hey, I know that--[It was obviously just a joke, what he just said...]

Like, if it's 1-4, you'd round to 5 and if it's 6 to 9, you'd round to 10...

[personal profile] knights_king 2015-08-27 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
What, like calculating...?

[Keeping things in the territory of mathematics was truly the disastrous mistake that would cripple them both.]

I mean, yeah! Like, if I'm rounding to 0 instead of 5...

[Woah. That was heavy.

Admittedly, Arthur didn't say anything for a flat thirty seconds before finally choking out--]


...Shit, I'm sorry.

N-Nah, it's cool.

[It wasn't, because he'd never really dealt with any sort of drug abuse other than alcohol abuse. Somehow, that seemed like a different sort of hurt.]

I mean, you gotta vent to somebody, right?
