Everyone's talking about pop culture and musicals and shit but what I want to know is why there aren't more bands!? I don't actually play anything before you ask but I miss being able to rock out and it's fucking weird to think that the groups I used to like are mostly dead and would be considered, I dunno. Classics. Oldies. Whatever.

Also, motorbike parts are insanely unregulated here, I think the bike I've got is actually the love child of maybe five other bikes, a vee-dub, and a golf cart. I mean, they're probably a little resource-poor. I get that since all the iron smelts are out there in the nuclear holocaust zone. Plus I think (or I HOPE because I like not dying of radiation poisoning) that what they have would go to keeping the dome all ship-shape.

I have a room-mate, which sucks because I have to pick up all my wet towels. Living with girls is weird. At least this chick's cool, or actually I think she's a giant dork but Veronica seems to think she's okay.

Considering that I'm hanging out with a truckload of fictional characters, the legal drinking age is about, what, three? and my dad's not here to tell me to be careful or whatever... this place is pretty boring.

I've gotta agree with you.

Never thought I'd say this, but I actually kinda want more to life than fighting and drinking.

Before I came here, all I wanted was peace. Got stuck here, left my friends behind, and I think it's pretty fucking shitty. It might be better if they were here.

Yeah, it'd be way better if my friends were here. So what do you do for fun? Apart from tear shit down and get beat up by girls for Vilma.

Not much. Been looking for a way out of this shitty place so I can get the fuck back to my friends, but you can see how that's working out.

I do?

Yeah, you were all talky-friendly at her, so I figured. Computer, uh, geek named Mac, know her?

... oh.

Yeah, I know her.

She's your roommate?

She's my roommate. Fun times ahead.

Awesome. Hope you don't my being there... a lot.

Like I would, man.

You say that now, but when Ms. Mars starts using Venus razors in your bathroom so her legs don't look like Plutos...

... wait, that joke doesn't work anymore.

And let me guess, you drive a Saturn?

You really are welcome whenever, just don't expect me to get enthusiastic about uh, leg-shaving.

I blame Dad.

I thought you'd be all over that, considering.

The people who wrote your show really really need to be punched in the face.

I enjoy legs, it's true. But I am not interested in the intricacies of a "beauty routine".

Hey, I enjoy being me. Most of the time.

I was more referring to your furry little problem.

Yeah, but I mean, the wordplay. How did you survive? Those fuckers.

Wait, you wan to shave me? Because that's really frat-boy of you.

My own wit and sparkling personality outshone it.

I didn't say that.

I think that's what makes her unique! Well, ours, at least. I think we can actually take her for a ride soon. Did you want to sit on the back?

As long as I don't have to sit side-saddle.

I'm not promising anything!

Ah, let's go get dinner tomorrow when I get back from school! We can take the bike!!

I'm always up for dinner. What d'you want to eat?

Somewhere all the way across the dome!

Sounds good to me!

I prefer the term geek.

There's a difference?

dork
–noun Slang.
1. a stupid or ridiculous person; jerk; nerd.
2. Vulgar. penis.

vs.

geek Slang.
–noun
1. a peculiar or otherwise dislikable person, esp. one who is perceived to be overly intellectual.
2. a computer expert or enthusiast (a term of pride as self-reference, but often considered offensive when used by outsiders.)
3. a carnival performer who performs sensationally morbid or disgusting acts, as biting off the head of a live chicken.

Either way it's kind of insulting, but geek has a better ring to it.

Live chicken, huh? Cool. Just not in the apartment, okay.

I promise to only bite the heads off dead chickens in the apartment.

You joke, but I think there's a whole bunch of people here that could pass for freakshow performers.

Well it is a gigantic bubble made up of people from works of fiction. And there are X-Men.

No Peter Parker, though. But I'm just saying, geekery is pretty tame compared to like, murderous psychopaths from some Japanese show.

Oh, well, yeah. I've always prided myself in my lack of crazy Japanese-enabled powers.
