[BACKDATED TO THE MIDDLE OF THE DREAMWEAVER EVENT] [VIDEO] - un: l.loire

[The feed doesn’t begin with anything special. It’s just a room like any other.]

[Except for one thing: the wall is covered in papers that have been doodled on extensively. There are a lot of crossed out drawings, one or two mathematical equations that don’t really amount to anything, and a lot of red string connecting things together. There’s a decent pan over the demonstration as a whole before there’s a voiceover.]


Okay, hello! This is Laguna! Hope everyone’s doing okay during this whole not-sleeping mess! I think I may have a discussion topic that’ll hopefully keep us awake, at least until we can settle this debate.

[He clears his throat.]

Today I’m talkin’ burgers. Not just any burgers, but burgers from diners and burgers from bars. And when I say burgers from bars, I mean the superior burger. Though it seems some people want to disagree.

SO!

I’ve put together some evidence to back up my claims.



[Laguna holds up the communication device to a couple of drawings covered in the scrawl of either a madman, someone who’s seriously feeling the effects of sleep deprivation, or a terrible combination of the two:]


BEHOLD. The chaos that you’d find in a diner that has way too many items on their menu to focus on a good burger. Now, I’m not saying that they can’t make good food, but a place that focuses on too much at once isn’t going to have any special love for their burgers! Then you got a bunch of people working at once and if there’s any kinda miscommunication, it all comes tumbling down.

Now, if you’re going for a burger at a bar

[The camera pans to another doodle:]


Exhibit B!

You’ve got two or three people working together putting all of their love and effort into making something really special with their burgers. A delicious burg, some beer that compliments it, and there you have it! An impeccable dining experience where you’re surrounded by your buds and sharing some food that makes you and your tummy happy. It’s just an overall better experience!

With that, I’d like to position this to you, Lunatia!

[Laguna places the communication device on what’s probably an unsteady surface to focus on him and him alone as he prepares his final statement:]


Bar burgers are the best burgers and you can’t change my mind!


DISCUSS!!!

[And, right on cue and in what’s probably the only way to end this... whatever this is..., his device falls over, flipping the image sideways.]

oh that makes sense
keeping the same job as before...
I'm kinda enjoying the break for now
but I gotta start making money ig

what's the craziest case you've ever had?
trenchdoting: (listening)

[personal profile] trenchdoting 2020-10-05 04:04 am (UTC)(link)
Do what you know, that's why they say!
Hey you better start earning yourself some money soon pal!
A guy can't just live off of hugs forever!
What kinda job are you used to anyway?

Oh jeez don't ask that, don't make me relive that. What do you wanna hear about? Spirit mediums, circus murders, flying ladies, costumed actors offing each other??
showended: (12)

[personal profile] showended 2020-10-05 04:12 am (UTC)(link)
oh I have a roommate
we're not gonna starve or anything

but I'm a musician
or like an idol ig
I write songs and I can sing and dance
I used to be part of a band and played the bass
it'd be nice to do that again

the costumed actor thing sounds pretty wild
too wild for me
maybe tell me a normal story instead
trenchdoting: (fond with food)

[personal profile] trenchdoting 2020-10-05 10:16 am (UTC)(link)
Good for you! Still, just be careful pal!

Really?? That's great you must be like a celebrity!
Then you should be set, just crank out a new single whenever you need money
Slap that bass pal!

Sure thing! There's
Well
Hm
Can you define what 'normal' means?
showended: (08)

[personal profile] showended 2020-10-05 04:44 pm (UTC)(link)
yeah, fair enough
does crystalizing happen a lot?

I used to be lol
I'll see how things work out here

I guess... like a dognapping?
do you get any boring jobs?
trenchdoting: (weird state of shock)

[personal profile] trenchdoting 2020-10-05 04:52 pm (UTC)(link)
It's pretty rare. You have to be really touch starved to get to that point.
Still pal, be careful.

I'm sure you'll do just fine! You do have good tastes, after all. I know I've got faith in you! :D

Dognapping???
No one would dare to lay a finger on Missile pal!!
I guess the most boring thing would be whenever I'm stuck on guard duty?
showended: (07)

[personal profile] showended 2020-10-05 05:22 pm (UTC)(link)
even a handshake would help, huh
I'll keep an eye out

wow u barely know me but ur really encouraging huh
thanks ig

u named ur dog Missile?
oh yeah guard duty must suck
do you still do a lot of that here?
trenchdoting: (proud dog owner)

[personal profile] trenchdoting 2020-10-05 05:40 pm (UTC)(link)
That's right, pal! Even the smallest of touches can go a long way!
I feel like I've become a master of handshakes in my time here.

Hey I feel like we've gotten to know each other pretty well.
I know I can count on you in a pinch, pal!

Actually it was the other boys who named him. He's the pride and joy of the police department, see? I'm just his caretaker, but he ended up coming here with me anyway.
I still do a good amount of it here. I'm at the bottom of the Moon Knight ladder after all.
And I moonlight as security at Salon de Marie. But that gig's not so bad, it's a nice place!
showended: (12)

[personal profile] showended 2020-10-06 04:10 am (UTC)(link)
do you give different handshakes to different people
like a secret handshake?
that'd be kinda fun

sure ok
I mean at least now I can say I know a cop
sucks that you're having to start from the bottom

oh! you have him here?
do you have any pics?
I got a cat when I got here, he's really soft
I'll trade u pics


[ pets... now this he will go on about ]
trenchdoting: (cheery salute)

[personal profile] trenchdoting 2020-10-06 11:53 am (UTC)(link)
I do try to mix it up from person to person
But if there were any secret handshakes
then that'd be top secret info, pal

Yeah you have that!
Eh, it's okay. I get it. I'm starting over in a whole new world, so it's a lot different than getting tranferred.

He's here alright!!
You're on, get ready cuz here he comes!


[And so Gumshoe then sends several photos of this doge, including ones of him going like this and going wild on some hot dogs!]
showended: (06)

[personal profile] showended 2020-10-06 03:20 pm (UTC)(link)
gotta keep it on the dl, i get it

not looking forward to that if I decide to get back in the business...


[ That's a big "if" for now. ]

he's cute!!
here's mine
his name is Mr. Whiskers, we didn't name him he just came with that name ok


[ Attached are several pictures of this cat. Most of the pictures are of him in a cat tree, with his legs mostly hanging out because he's so damn big. ]
trenchdoting: (smiling animated thought)

[personal profile] trenchdoting 2020-10-06 03:39 pm (UTC)(link)
A DL??
Like what they call classified cases? Yeah that's a pretty serious way of putting it but it works!

Well hey it's different for you! You just have to make a great song and it won't matter if you don't have old hits to your name, everyone'll eat it up!

Thanks.
Oh he's precious! He looks very thoughtful, pal. :)
showended: (08)

[personal profile] showended 2020-10-06 06:59 pm (UTC)(link)
on the downlow
like a secret
how old are u gumshoe


[ sorry he's such a bratty kid online... ]

i can try but a lot of my style isn't that popular
i actually only got big when i joined a tv show
the producer picked the genre and our looks and stuff
i still wrote the songs but i'm more rock than pop, personally

he's really smart!
and super soft
he likes curling up on the couch and laying in the sun
trenchdoting: (triangle of joy)

[personal profile] trenchdoting 2020-10-06 08:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh
I guess that makes sense
Hey who are you trying to call old pal!!

Whoa really? You could've fooled me!
But hey you never know
Maybe that's just the sound this place is looking for!

AWWWWWW
I might be a dog person but I can appreciate hearing about cute cat stuff!
showended: (00)

[personal profile] showended 2020-10-06 11:30 pm (UTC)(link)
srry maybe ur just not up with the lingo

I was actually in an indie band before
it'd be nice to get a second chance, maybe
I have to think about it

yeah I totally prefer cats
but dogs aren't too bad
trenchdoting: (glint in eye)

[personal profile] trenchdoting 2020-10-07 12:27 am (UTC)(link)
I know all kinds of hip lingo pal!!
like LOL and ROFL and BRB
All the basics!!

Yeah, no pressure pal
Just something to think about! If you want.

Dogs are the absolute best pal!
But cats are fine.
showended: (06)

[personal profile] showended 2020-10-07 02:34 am (UTC)(link)
hahaha those r definitely the basics alright

i'm guessing you're a dog person
are you sanguis? can you turn into one?
trenchdoting: (weird state of shock)

[personal profile] trenchdoting 2020-10-07 03:01 am (UTC)(link)
See I'm a master!! ROFL

No, I'm not a literal one.
I'm actually an Iris.
So it's more rabbits and bats and stuff
showended: (09)

[personal profile] showended 2020-10-07 03:13 am (UTC)(link)
👍 u sure r dude

ohhh ok cool
the iris animals seem cute
i'm hoping for cordis or sanguis
trenchdoting: (speaking)

[personal profile] trenchdoting 2020-10-07 03:21 am (UTC)(link)
Super sure! I even know BBL!

They can be cute.
Oh you don't know yet? You really must be new, pal!
showended: (07)

[personal profile] showended 2020-10-07 03:30 am (UTC)(link)
lol that's great

even bats r kinda cute
but yeah i just showed up this last month
this dream stuff was a hell of a welcome
trenchdoting: (looking to the side)

[personal profile] trenchdoting 2020-10-07 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
Ha thanks, I know I am!

Right, they can be pretty cute, especially when they're not sucking your blood!
I see. I'm sorry that had to be one of your first experiences here. All that dream stuff was really rough!
At least we're still here to tell the tale, pal.
showended: (11)

[personal profile] showended 2020-10-07 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
wait, can iris become vampires??
that seems like a big leap

yeah i'm lucky i don't live alone
i was able to save my roommate but it was pretty stressful
it'll be over in a few days tho, right?
that's what everyone said
trenchdoting: (real headscratcher)

[personal profile] trenchdoting 2020-10-07 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
Not that I know of!
I just meant like bats in general, you know?

Whoa. I'm sorry. But I'm glad you were able to get through that, pal!
I know it's not easy.
And yeah, that's what we're hoping.
Usually when this wild stuff lasts, it's not for long.
So we just have to ride it out and see what we can do to help each other, pal.
showended: (04)

[personal profile] showended 2020-10-07 04:24 am (UTC)(link)
oh ok good
i'd hate to be a vampire on top of all the other stuff

it was touch and go when i found him
but we made it through
good thing it's only a few days
i miss sleeping so bad
