Third Floor CR, evening

Looking for something to distract himself from moping, Bel sprawled on the couch of the third floor common room, flipping through the channels of the TV. He settled on an episode of the History Channel's "Mega Diasters" series: West Coast Tsunami. Violence and destruction. Perfect.

"Hi, Bridge!" she waves back, hoping she remembered his name correctly. "So it's natural disasters tonight instead of human ones?"

"Looks like," Bridge grins. "Though I think Cally just claimed control of the remote, so we might end up watching, like, Funky Fisherman or something."

"Which one's Cally?" she asks. "And do I want to know what Funky Fisherman is?"

"The one with the bangs," Bridge points. "And it's some kids show from, like, way back in 2003 or something."

"Oh okay, I haven't met her yet," she says. Then she gives Bridge a kind of strange look. "2003 was only three years ago."

"Well, sure, for you," Bridge grins. "But I wasn't even born yet."

Marie looks at him and blinks. "So you're from... the future?" she asks, remembering her earlier conversation with Bel. This was all going to take some serious getting used to.

[identity profile] bridge-carson.livejournal.com 2006-05-14 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
"Not, like, far in the future. I was born in 2004. It's 2021 where I come from."

[identity profile] untouchableskin.livejournal.com 2006-05-14 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
"Wow," Marie said. "So, like, there's a little two year old you running around somewhere?"

[identity profile] bridge-carson.livejournal.com 2006-05-14 02:35 am (UTC)(link)
"Yeah," Bridge nods. "Sometimes, I wonder what it'd be like to meet me, but then I'm like, well, what if I didn't like me? That'd kind of suck."

"Somehow I find that unlikely," Xander said as he sat down, totally butting in like a butty inny thing.

"Hi, I'm Xander, by the way," he said to the new girl.

"I'm Marie," she replied with a smile. "It's nice to meet you."

She cocked her head at Bridge. "But don't you think it would be like in the movies? If you met yourself it would create a paradox and the world would end?"

Bridge frowns at that. "Huh. Didn't think about that."

"Point. Or like the thing on Mr. What. The Aaronovitch Limitation Effect. The old major general and the, uh, modern major general end up touching, and kablooey. Not on a universe-blowing level, but the young one went all amnesia-guy."

"Never saw that show," Marie admitted. "And, I really know nothing about time travel. Or demons. Or vampires. Or witches. Or... sentient laundry machines," she added that last one a bit hesitantly, trying to remember everything on Bel's list that morning.

"It is kind of a lot have thrown at you all at once," Bridge says. "But sooner or later you'll get used to it." He grins.

"Things can be hard to keep track of even for us old guys," Xander sneaks a look at Bridge and stifles a laugh, "with all the new people coming in. If you miss the radio broadcast you're liable to only find out you've got, say, purple rhinoceri moving in across the hall when one of 'em bangs on the door with his horn and asks you to turn the stereo down."

"Radio broadcast? Purple rhinoceri?" Marie blinks rapidly.

[identity profile] bridge-carson.livejournal.com 2006-05-14 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
"Yup!" Bridge grins. "Uh, every night someone does a radio broadcast and we recap what went on on the island during the day. I say we because I usually have Thursday nights, except for sometimes when I switch nights with people. And, okay, sometimes the radio notes aren't exactly accurate but we just work with what we're given so..." Bridge shrugs.

"I made up the purple rhinoceri, though," Xander adds helpfully.

Marie gives him a half smile. "Well, that's good. One thing I don't actually have to worry about. And thanks, I'll make sure to check out the radio."
