4th Fix

[technohippie]

[Quinn Hatch is, by nature, a people person. A party person. Mayfield is way too quiet and boring for his tastes, not to mention that he's a bit lonely and homesick. Working as a teacher has kept him busier than he thought it would, and the daily grind tough on him. Today though, he's calling out to chillax! You may find him:

1. Working in his garage on Brady Lane. From within, his regained laptop and stereo system are set up and are positively BLARING music at a drone-unacceptable level. He looks quite content though, working on something in there with some newly-acquired tools. The music is all different kinds - rock, metal, dance, rap, Quinn listens to it all. Come rock out/find out what he's doing/complain?

2. Later in the evening at the tavern. He doesn't want to drink alone, and you look like a good-looking friendly stranger! Look out, because he's sitting down next to you. If you're nice enough he might even buy you a drink.

3. Later that evening, stealing car parts. That might be your car he's harvesting. Whoops! He was meaning to get drones' cars, but who can tell in the dark, or after you've had a few too many. Double-whoops. But as far as he knows, it's the best and really only way to collect what he needs to build things.

Yeah? Ya know, it'd be nice to see what other people in town cook. The drone wife's meals get kinda monotonous! Alright man, you're on. Thanks!

[You'll get a viking Swedish meal.And the drone wife/mother will be locked into a closet or otherwise kept away from the kitchen.]

What d' y' drink? [He has no idea what they have, but he'll see what he can get. He does not know yet that he'll have to ask his "father" for that.]

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

Ain't ya a little young to be worrin' about that? Heh, whatever is fine man! I ain't picky. I'll be sure to bring something' good though too.

[sveariket.livejournal.com]

...Wh' "too young"?

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

Ain't ya like, 14 or somethin'? I ain't even been the best guess of age though.

[sveariket.livejournal.com]

[Nods. Face of "I don't get it".]

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

Well hell man, I don't care if ya drink, I just don't know what the town thinks about minors.

[sveariket.livejournal.com]

[That explains his drone mother's reaction] Minor 's until eightt'n?

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

Eighteen? Welcome to the good ol' USA man, Try twenty-one! Well, this is like, 1955, I think some states are still eighteen for drinkin' age, but I ain't totally sure on that.

...

[At that age, a man's own children might already be able to talk and walk and think, and a woman's will most likely be able to. WHAT.]

Wh'?

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I know it's different for most other countries, but that's how America rolls.

[sveariket.livejournal.com]

'll ask F'nland t' buy 't.

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

You'll... what?

[sveariket.livejournal.com]

Ask th' adult 'n m' house fer 't.

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

Wait, there's someone named "Finland" in you're house? Weird. But there's a kid in my one class named "chaos" so, whatever.

[sveariket.livejournal.com]

H' hunts a lot. [Why is the name that he gave the kid weird, he doesn't get it.]

...Why "chaos"?

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

Who knows. The kid is like from 2000 years in the future from me, so maybe that's a hip name in space. [He laughs.]

[sveariket.livejournal.com]

..'n yer class h're?

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

Yeah, my job here's a teacher. I'm not so fond of it, but it's not like I had a choice. [He shrugs.] I'm dealin' though. Who knows, maybe ya'll end up in my class one day!

[sveariket.livejournal.com]

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

Well me too, in the end. I'm sure most folks in town would agree.
