[Liam's looking rather excited and shocked today when he turns on the laptop in his hotel room. It's apparent that he wants to look at the camera to speak to the network, but he's also unable to take his eyes off of whatever it outside the window to the side... which in this case is everything.]

Guys, guys... you will not believe this! I can see like... forever!

You're high.

[arrowpoint]

Dude! I am not high! I mean... the hotel room is pretty high up, but I haven't been doing drugs.

[Emilia stares... Stares some more, then finally decides to speak up.]

...Either you've messed with acid or you've gotten some kind of echo.

[youngestone]

Nope, totally high.

[arrowpoint]

I don't touch that stuff, this is totally an echo. Or two echos? I can hear really good now, too.

[Liam winces then reaches over to turn down the volume on the laptop.]

No, seriously, I'm not on drugs!

[Pause, then he looks a little doubtful.]

Unless somebody drugged me...

[youngestone]

...dude, I'm kidding. I date an Elf, remember? I know how freaky your sense are.

[arrowpoint]

Don't scare me dude, this is Vegas, anything can happen.

[He's still distracted and doesn't know where to direct his attention.]

Yeah, it's really weird. Remember when Ariel had that hearing thing? I just got that, everything is loud. But I just... I can see so far away.

[youngestone]

I have no idea how to help you with the vision thing, but get some earplugs for the hearing thing?

video

[arrowpoint]

Right now I'm cool, I'm in my room and I just have the volume on real low, but I might get earplugs later. Seeing isn't too bad, but looking at stuff up close is blurry. I wouldn't ask me to read anything, it's a good thing I can type without looking at the keys.

[youngestone]

Try getting glasses?

video

[arrowpoint]

You think I have to? That would suck...

video

[youngestone]

Maybe just until you adjust to the eyesight thing.

[espigeonage]

Is there a halo around the sun?

video

[arrowpoint]

Well... as long as it sorts itself out. I wouldn't want to wear glasses forever.

[He does turn back to the computer now, making an effort to keep focused on Killian.]

How's it going over there in the mountain?

[arrowpoint]

Um...

[Liam looks out the window and then up at the sun briefly.]

No? Should there be?

video

[youngestone]

[he shrugs]

I'm spending most of my time visiting Ariel right now.

video

[arrowpoint]

I thought you might go back and fourth. I haven't heard anything from anybody since I got hurt, so...

[He frowns a little and sighs.]

I'd have come down there more often but I'm supposed to stay off my ankle for another couple of days.

[youngestone]

It's been pretty boring, near as I can tell. Ariel at least has cable in her room, so y'know.

[espigeonage]

Oh, well. I can dream! I did tell you I see one there, right?

video

[arrowpoint]

Well at least it's entertaining. Up here I've got pay-per-view too, last night I finally got to the last "Sisterhood of the flying pajama bottoms---"

[Wait. Cough.]

I mean, uh... some... movie. With swords. And explosions.

video

[youngestone]

[Killian laughs]

Dude, you can watch chick flicks. I'm not judging.

[arrowpoint]

Oh yeah, in the car when we drove over. Nah, It's most stuff like really far away that I can see. Looks pretty normal otherwise - well, besides it being blurry all up close, but I think I just have to get used to it.

...What do you mean you can dream? You want me to see like you?

[espigeonage]

So now you're - man, I can never remember if it's nearsighted or farsighted. Sounds annoying, though. You should let me get a look at your eyes - mine look all weird up close, some people just look like they're wearing funny contacts.

...Maybe. I wouldn't mind if someone did! [Julien licks his lips in a kind of nervous way, and smiles.]

Re: videoideo

[arrowpoint]

...Some people judge, okay?

[Still a little red in the face, but he tries to move on to another subject.]

Well hey, in another couple of days I can get out of here and be a productive member of society or something. I'm going to get some books for Ariel, do you want anything to read? Since you're staying with her and all...
