And I thought my world couldn't get any weirder. I guess being from a television show makes a disturbing kind of sense, though. Only Hollywood could come up with some of the stuff you see in Neptune.

A little notice would've been nice, though. Dropped into the biodome without a change of clothes. And more importantly, my computer. This one is okay, but weak in comparison even if it's a "shiny new laptop from the future." The RAM is probably half of what my MacBook Pro had. I see a shopping trip for things besides clothing in my near future.

These computers are weak? I don't really know much about them, it's all kind of new.

[licoriceaddict.livejournal.com]

Well, my standards are higher than most.

[adeeperforce.livejournal.com]

Oh. I've never had a computer before. What's Macbook pro and ram?

[detectflaws.livejournal.com]

Oh, you know. A little of that Cindy charm and they'll probably give it to you for free.

[licoriceaddict.livejournal.com]

A MacBook Pro is a type of laptop computer, put out by Apple. RAM is uh. Sort of like, the memory of your computer. If Wikipedia still exists they've got articles on it.

[licoriceaddict.livejournal.com]

Who is this Cindy you speak of and why is she getting me free things?

[detectflaws.livejournal.com]

Funny.

When did you get here, why did it take you so long and please, say you brought my GPS tracker.

[licoriceaddict.livejournal.com]

Today, I just saw you, and again, no notice, couldn't pack.

[detectflaws.livejournal.com]

I've been here nine months, actually.

When did you just see me?

[adeeperforce.livejournal.com]

I think I understood maybe half of that.

[copier.livejournal.com]

Depending where you come from, these computers really suck.

[licoriceaddict.livejournal.com]

What and you're not knocked up yet? Didn't you watch the welcome tapes? Veronica we need to breed! Now!

Just before I woke up here? We were blackmailing the future pinheads of America.

[adeeperforce.livejournal.com]

Where I come from there weren't any computers. I'll take your word for it.

[licoriceaddict.livejournal.com]

I actually get that a lot.

[detectflaws.livejournal.com]

Yeeeah, you'll find not a lot of people are obeying the rules of the dome. Surprise surprise.

Huh.

[copier.livejournal.com]

None? Wow.

The computers here just seem so...stupid. Horrible AI. :(

[licoriceaddict.livejournal.com]

Clearly no one else from Neptune is here.

[detectflaws.livejournal.com]

Nope.

[adeeperforce.livejournal.com]

Well, it was 1960. I had a typewriter.

[licoriceaddict.livejournal.com]

I can't decide between being overjoyed or disappointed that I don't get to watch all the 09ers reactions to having their bank accounts reduced to food stamps.

[detectflaws.livejournal.com]

Maybe you'll get lucky and Dick will claw his way in.

[copier.livejournal.com]

wow um. That's pretty old!

[adeeperforce.livejournal.com]

It's probably me.

[licoriceaddict.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't consider that luck.

[detectflaws.livejournal.com]

You'd get to see him breed. And then probably torn apart by all of the mothers.

[licoriceaddict.livejournal.com]

Yeah, horrified by the idea of him furthering his species.

[adeeperforce.livejournal.com]

I guess it is now.

I'm from a television show, too. Or at least, that's what they tell me. Between you and me, sometimes I think they might be lying about that. Of course, I don't know why they would lie about it, but you never know.

You're from Neptune? As in the planet? Were you on a sci-fi show? I used to watch sci-fi shows back on my...um, show, I guess. That's creepy to think about, isn't it?

My name is Ned, by the way. What's yours?

[licoriceaddict.livejournal.com]

Neptune, CA actually. Considering my best friend was the lead of the show (apparently) and her last name is Mars, the writers probably thought they were being hilarious.

I'm Mac. So uh, what universe are you from?

[nedmakespies.livejournal.com]

I came from a show called "Pushing Daisies," apparently. I think they were trying to be clever because of my um...talent. I touched murder victims and brought them back to life so that my friend Emerson (who was a P.I.) could ask them who killed them and solve the crimes and collect the reward money.

Strangely enough, my special "skill" is not the weirdest thing here, so. At least there's that.
