[ This network needs ten times more Soos stat, and Soos- wearing safety goggles and a standard yellow construction helmet- is here to provide it from the nearest hallway terminal. ]

Okay, I'm not trying to call it officially or anything, but I'm pretty sure I just had the best idea ever and everyone should get in on it. Like, drop what you're doing, get a helmet you think is cool, and hit the second floor. Maybe get some kneepads or something, too? Whatever you'd call your basic safety equipment. I'm not gonna judge, dude; you do you. 'cause-- not to spoil the surprise or anything, but this is gonna be so rad.

[ He pauses for all of half a second before he's laughing. ]

Haha, okay, I'm totally spoiling it. We're about to do some killer mattress surfing, dudes! It's time to make the dream aliiiiiive!

[ Full-on excited fist-pumping, shouting into the air, enthusiasm. So ends the saga of why Soos should not be allowed access to a closet that can give him almost anything he asks for. Or maybe the saga of exactly why he should be allowed.

The option to action in is totally open! Soos is pretty determined to do what it says on the tin and then some, so he'll be hauling mattresses around and the like. Anything is possible.

(For real though, feel free to doop around any old way in that regard. Threadjack, drag friends upstairs to make them ride down some stairs, yell at people, bring a toboggan, whatever takes your fancy.) ]

[No, Alistair isn't entirely certain what mattress surfing is but he's bored and it has been promised to be fun (by a complete stranger) so he's there.

And this? This looks perfect.]


Now why didn't I think of this?

[He practically bounds over to the man whose absolutely brilliant idea this is and thumps him affably on the shoulder, grinning broadly.]

You my friend are a genius! This is going to be the best!

[And forget a helmet or armour. That would just ruin the fun.]

The rest of us are clearly blind to the possibilities of this place. You should make sure to share your wisdom more often.

[That is utterly sincere and the absolute truth. Alistair has been desperately lacking in ways to risk his neck - literally or otherwise - since getting here. Now he's been given the perfect solution.

Peering down at the bottom of the stairs he turns back to the ringleader of this set-up.]


How fast do you think we can get these things moving?

[personal profile] fatherlesskind 2016-02-27 10:13 am (UTC)(link)
What about if we put... oil or something down them? To make it faster? And use that inflatable thing, whatever it is? Or something else that will slide on it.

[Because bumps are good but bumps and fast will be better, right?]

Definitely! [No one should mind oil getting spread all over the floor just for a little while. It's not like they're going to set it on fire or something.]

Is plastic slippery? [If it will make the mattresses slide better presumably it is but he figures he'd better check.]

[He'll get all the time he needs, what with Alistair not able to get the stuff himself. Plus this guy is agreeing to make a fun thing (hopefully) even better so clearly he is someone worth heeding the advice of.

When he gets back Alistair eyes the roll curiously.]


So we just wrap it around the mattress you think?

[personal profile] fatherlesskind 2016-03-06 09:38 am (UTC)(link)
It will definitely be worth it!

[If it works. It'll work. How could such a brilliant idea not?

Looking the other man over Alistair shrugs and hefts the mattress in answer, holding it out so he can begin to wrap.]
It's Alistair, by the way.

[Alistair pauses in the middle of turning the mattress to make wrapping it easier, shooting a questioning look at-] Soos?

[It sounds like... some kind of weird, foreign food. Maybe it's normal where he's from. But it still sounds weird.] Really? Your parents named you... Soos?
fatherlesskind: (07)

[personal profile] fatherlesskind 2016-03-09 09:27 am (UTC)(link)
Ohh! I get it! ...It's still kind of weird sounding. Soos. Soooooos...

[Yep. Still weird.]

Sorry.

[About his nickname or making of it, take your pick.]
fatherlesskind: (05)

[personal profile] fatherlesskind 2016-03-15 08:44 am (UTC)(link)
Right? [A bit of weirdness definitely keeps things interesting. Too bad Soos couldn't have imparted that wisdom on some of Alistair's teachers.]

Wouldn't it be better if they went 'Gee, Soos' when they saw you? [It could work. Maybe. Much like the crinkling, plastic-ed mattress in front of him might. There's only one way to tell, in both cases.]
fatherlesskind: (13)

[personal profile] fatherlesskind 2016-03-23 09:17 am (UTC)(link)
[Alistair grins and nods proudly. He will take that as praise for his amazing wit. Although he can't figure out what Soos means by his comment.]

How could it go to your head? I thought it was your name?
