Case #19: Video

[The video feed turns on, and George settles back into his chair. He's seated in the infirmary, next to Eddie Spinola's bed. He has a book on his lap. The book would seem to be making little happy noises, except that's impossible. Isn't it?]

I suspect this has already been discussed, or at least asked, and I do apologize if that is the case, but I would like very much to know: what is it you believe in?

Not what you don't believe in, because that's not important, but what you do. Whatever that is. Because everyone must believe in something. And I'm interested to know what that might be. For instance: I've been having a thrilling read about this worm which devours...

[George glances down at the book on his lap.]

Oh! And: unrelatedly, does anybody know the average circumference of a man's chest?

George just wants to see some tits.

Of course it is. I'm so sorry to have intruded on your privacy.

He'd get man chest anyway.

I'm not about to risk letting such information fall into the wrong hands. [Translation: I'm grumpy so yo can't have nice things.]

Tits are tits.

Oh, no need to worry about that: my hands are quite correct. For human hands.

He approves of that.

And if someone were to steal it?

So? That doesn't mean things can't be stolen from you. Or that you're guaranteed to find the culprit.

But it makes that sort of thing very unlikely.

Unlikely is not impossible and I shall not be so careless with my people's secrets.

[identity profile] shortsghtedlove.livejournal.com 2011-08-17 01:40 am (UTC)(link)
Because enemies could take advantage of it.Or some fool could try to copy it.

You'd be surprised what advanced enough science makes possible.

[identity profile] 19centconstable.livejournal.com 2011-08-17 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
I would be extremely surprised, yes.

[identity profile] shortsghtedlove.livejournal.com 2011-08-17 02:26 am (UTC)(link)
It's certainly not impossible, let's leave it at that.
