25th Inning

[freakinblur]

[Somewhere, in a warehouse uptown, Scout stands in front of a small film crew and a director. He's currently dressed as the impressive, glorious image of a young Soviet soldier who is defeating their capitalist and Nazi enemies and leading the loyal workers to victory.]

Okay, so, I stab this Nazi guy, then kick the American guy in tha face, then I say... what the crap, I can't read this. I don't speak Russian! What's it say? .... "Nothing will stop us! We are Russians, we will overcome!"* ...Are you freakin' serious? Awright, whatevah. Let's just get this over with.


[Later, back at home the efficiency apartment, a phone call!]

This is it? Geez. Well if this only lasts as long as Westport, whatevah, this'll be a breeze. They've made me inta some kinda movie star fer their lousy Commie movies, but it beats the factory 'n' all that. I mean, I guess I am a pretty sweet choice ta be the hero, right? 12 hour workdays kinda blow though. What they stick tha rest 'a you chucklenuts with?

Lucky. I wanna be in films! 'stead, I gotta invent borin' ol' cold fusion.

[freakinblur.livejournal.com]

Cold fusion? Damn, pally, good luck with that! Might wanna ask around fer some 'a the more sciencey guys in town fer help on that.

Yeah, I mean, it ain't great, don't get me wrong. Apparently I gotta crank out like 3 'a these things a day! I'm friggin' beat already. An' they're, like, all the same so I don't even know what the point of it is.

This is all going to drive me crazy! And I thought the 50's clothes were bad...

[freakinblur.livejournal.com]

Seriously, man, the clothes they gave me don't even fit! The pants musta been made fer a Heavy, I swear ta Christ.

[numanstan.livejournal.com]

It's got somethin' to do with ice cubes and brain cells. I don't even know, mate.

Still, easier than goin' to the moon or havin' babies, yeah?

[mokkori-love.livejournal.com]

And all the mokkori ladies!! They're all dressed in that awful fabric--I know this is crazy, but I miss the 50's America clothes!!

[At home]

I have to drive tractors.

[bawlingforsoup.livejournal.com]

I-I have to m-move b-bricks... B-By Tuesday. N-No wheelbarrow s-since I q-questioned them... A-And as l-long as y-you keep nose out of t-trouble it will be b-breeze. _{Have d-done this before.}

[freakinblur.livejournal.com]

The hell? Tractors? You? What were they thinkin'?

[freakinblur.livejournal.com]

Ha! I know, right? Wait till ya here everyone in town bellyachin' about how they miss Mayfield. What a joke that'll be!

[freakinblur.livejournal.com]

You like, Russian 'r somethin'? Damn, Mayfield musta been like a picnic for ya compared ta all this. So this is what it's really like over there? Geez.

[miss-enma-ai.livejournal.com]

I don't know.

.....


I don't think I can drive a tractor and they say I have to drive three of them by Friiday

[freakinblur.livejournal.com]

Beats tha hell outta me.

Moon? Babies? Don't tell me that's what other people got? They only got a few days ta do that in, too?

[mokkorilove.livejournal.com]

Maybe that was the point of this little 'event'.

[freakinblur.livejournal.com]

Drive 3 by Friday. What the hell does that even mean? This has ta be tha weirdest crap they've pulled yet.

[freakinblur.livejournal.com]

I was thinkin' that. It'd be pretty typical of 'em.

[numanstan.livejournal.com]

Yeah, and Sideswipe's the one who's supposed to be havin' kids! [LAUGHING LIKE THE BITCH HE IS]

[freakinblur.livejournal.com]

Sideswipe?!

[OK, Scout laughs too, because that IS hilarious.] Oh man. What a riot. He's screwed! An' I don't mean literally.

[bawlingforsoup.livejournal.com]

Latvian. _{[BITTER. RUSSIAN HOW DARE HE THIS IS AN EIGHTY-ONE HONDA--]} I-Is not Russian--Will n-never be Russian. I-I live with M-Mister Russia b-back home... A-And Mayfield w-was l-little dream.

[mokoriluv.livejournal.com]

Well... I guess all we can to is ride this out. I'm supposed to approve 20 State Marriages by Wednesday. Can't be too hard, right?

[freakinblur.livejournal.com]

Latvian? Well, not Russian is good. Ya think that fat Russia bastard's got somethin' ta do with this? Cuz I will seriously break his face in right now if he does.

[numanstan.livejournal.com]

Even if he was the weird sorta alien that could have kids, he's only got a few days!... We've all only got a few days.

[freakinblur.livejournal.com]

Yeah, honestly this job is a breeze. Even BLU's got way harder objectives than this!

[miss-enma-ai.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure.

....do we have tractors here?

[freakinblur.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I wonder what's gonna happen if ya don't get this shit done in time? That's the creepy part.
