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.

...Oh. Ouch. Sorry, man. Raw deal. Well uh, at least ya got outta there in one piece, right?

This isn't much of an alternative. And it means I've got nowhere to go back to.

[Dias is briefly silent before glancing at Quinn. Fortunately, he's usually pretty private with his angst, so he'll be changing the subject.] Haven't seen you around before.

That's a real bummer. Hey, maybe ya can go somewhere else someday then!

Ah, yeah I'm still kinda new here. Quinn Hatch, at your service! So the town gave you this job? Man, you got pretty lucky.

[Dias hadn't actually considered this before, and he looks nonplussed. Where else could he go...? Is it even a possibility? That'll require some thought.]

Dias Flac. And yeah, I was informed I had this job awhile back. I guess it's not that bad.

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

Well they set up me as a high school math teacher. Talk about the job I wanted LEAST in this world. So I gotta say, I envy ya, even if the booze is lousy!

[the-bloody-road.livejournal.com]

Hnh. I wonder if you're allowed to change jobs here? Or why they're assigned at all, really.

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

Good question! I wonder. Most people are assigned them. I wonder if anyone tried to quit and pick up another?

You could try finding out, if you object to yours that much.
