Anyone seen a "Luke Friday" around?

Sorry mate. Willin' to keep an ear out, though.

Wicked goggles, by the way.

[nottome.livejournal.com]

Thanks, custom made.

[tigereyedrogue.livejournal.com]

*His eyebrows go up* By you?

[nottome.livejournal.com]

Well, yeah. Like I'm gonna have anyone else work on something so essential to my outfit work.

[tigereyedrogue.livejournal.com]

Hm. I wonder what Doc Brown would think of this bloke? Interesting. Engineer, or one of those intimidating all-rounders?

[nottome.livejournal.com]

Inventor. To say the least. I mean I'm either soldering things together or I'm mixing up chemicals or something, and, y'know, safety and all.

[tigereyedrogue.livejournal.com]

*Daimon perks up considerably* Got a mate into invention. Specialty in temporal physics. Workin' on 'is own time machine.

Er...Daimon Winter. *holds out a hand whose nails are black, hard and carefully filed down* Not an inventor, just part of the more user-friendly sort of audience. My business partner's even more into it. Her son was a tinkerer, y'see.

*shakes his hand with thick rubber gloves--sure, makes little things a little harder, but it IS part of the costume...* Dr. Horrible. Small-time villain. ...Temporal physics, you say... I can't tell if that's incredibly exciting or exceedingly stupid. This guy knows what he's doing, right?

[tigereyedrogue.livejournal.com]

Daimon blinks. Doctor...Horrible? But he's not even...that...horrible-seeming. Though I suppose a cool name is rather important in certain circles of villainy...except, again...

Ah, well, let me put it this way. Give yourself...about a lifetime's more experience and education, and the cool egg-beatered white Einstein hair. Which is, of course, important. *Nodnods* That's Doc Brown. He's...bloody brilliant. Totally gave me a soft spot for the daring-science set.

I'm just saying, messing with time sounds really exciting, but the sci-fi movie watching book reading dork and all around common sense side just thinks that's going to end in disaster somehow.

[tigereyedrogue.livejournal.com]

One would think it, but...uh...technically he'll simply be the first human to break the time barrier. And that's a familiar dorkery, thanks. I even have every episode of MST3K on my hard drive.

It may end in disaster, but first attempts at something often do. He seems pretty prepared for that eventuality though.

[prodigalodinson.livejournal.com]

The name rings a bell.

[nottome.livejournal.com]

Does it now. Ringing in any particular direction?

[prodigalodinson.livejournal.com]

Oh, back and forth, as most do.

Why are you looking for someone with such a peculiar name?

[nottome.livejournal.com]

He had some kind of proposal idea thing for me. Figure I might at least keep tabs on the guy. Nevermind, might not be worth it.

Are you bored with me already, Billy?

Re: locked

[nottome.livejournal.com]

OKAY SERIOUSLY A LITTLE WARNING MIGHT BE GOOD. JUST. GOD.

...So. I may have...overreacted. A bit. During our previous conversation.

Re: locked

[prodigalodinson.livejournal.com]

No harm done.

To be honest, I was a little...rough with you.

You just have such a trusting face...

Re: locked

[nottome.livejournal.com]

THAT? THAT. THAT'S EVEN WORSE. DON'T EVEN DO THAT.

Look, okay. *oh hi I'm not even fucking looking at you now I'm just going to visually IGNORE YOU NOW thanks :|* You shapeshift. You know things you shouldn't. And you're unhappy with the big bold superheroes. What exactly is it that you're looking for here?

Re: locked

[prodigalodinson.livejournal.com]

Fun.

Revenge.

Satisfaction. A flavorful blend of all three...

Why do you do what you do behind closed doors, Billy?

Re: locked

[nottome.livejournal.com]

And why would I ever be interested in helping you do all of that? They haven't done anything against me yet.

...What, you mean--the evil thing? Because the evil thing's got an agenda. The evil thing's a good thing in disguise.

Re: locked

[prodigalodinson.livejournal.com]

Oh, Billy. Billy, Billy...

What do you think they would do if they found out what you are? Clint Barton is a hero...that's all he knows how to be. He puts down the bad people.

The evil thing may be good to you, but when they find out...you will lose everyone. Everyone...

Hit them first.

Re: locked

[nottome.livejournal.com]

No. That's not the way it works.

...Okay, hitting them first, yes, that's the way that works, but--

They're heroes. They've got their own code of conduct. It's not like they'll kill me or destroy everything I have or any of that. They'll punch me repeatedly and try to throw me in jail.

Public service announcements Doctor? Hardly seems safe..

[nottome.livejournal.com]

Well how else am I really going to track down a guy who can change what he looks like? Any information is better than no information.
