Case 69 [Video]

--It's just an old mess I've been meaning to clean up...by the way, 1,000 of these guys are supposed to grant a wish, so let's make a bunch!

[Hanna is sitting on the edge of the big fountain, hunched over and smiling, concentrating on something. He's folding a piece of paper, and he doesn't seem to realize he's no longer at home. After a minute, he grins and finally looks up, holding up a small paper crane.]

Not a bad idea, right, Oscar?

[He blinks, smile fading to be replaced with a look of confusion. Wait, this isn't his apartment.]

Oscar?

[Hanna blinks, looking around in confusion.]

Oscar, where'd you go?
...wait. Where did I go...? This isn't my apartment...

[After a minute or two of looking around and wondering what exactly what's going on, Hanna suddenly realizes where he is, and a wave of relief washes over him, and he smiles.]

Ohhh...I thought I was done with this place! Man, I can't believe I forgot...
Hey, I'm back in the City!!

[He grins and stands up, still holding the crane and looking around.]

Hey, Oscar, Sam, Billy, everybody, I think I'm back! Wonder how long I've been gone for...Hope I didn't miss too much...


Sorry, I left, Oscar...I'll be right home soon!

[He grins, still talking to himself, before he rushes off, going to try and find a zombie that's no longer here in a house that's basically empty (save for a sheep and a grouchy pregnant dog).]


[ooc: Screw it, I came back early because I didn't end up going away. Ah well...pretend that this lasted 3 days instead of 2. Anyway, Hanna is back from his canon update!! He's now been updated to the beginning of chapter 3, which can again be found here: http://hanna.aftertorque.com/?p=605]

Don't think y'were gone too long, cos I didn't even notice. But, uh, welcome back?

[identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com 2010-07-24 10:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Huh. Maybe it was longer for me, I guess...I dunno. Felt like it was a while.

[identity profile] justcautious.livejournal.com 2010-07-24 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Could be. Only left 'ere for a month, maybe and I was 'ome for loads o' months.

[identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com 2010-07-24 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Guess it was probably only a few days, then. Still feels like a lot happened, though!!
team_sociopath: (][hey. hey. hey. hey! HEY!)

[personal profile] team_sociopath 2010-07-24 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Who's Oscar?

[identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com 2010-07-24 10:36 pm (UTC)(link)
My best friend! He's a zombie, but he doesn't always goes by Oscar. He's different every day. Tomorrow, I'm thinking Patrick...

Gee, I hope that he wasn't too worried about me while I was gone...granted, I don't think I was gone too long, but he worries a bit too much.
team_sociopath: (][wait what's going on)

[personal profile] team_sociopath 2010-07-24 10:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Why does he change every day? And I don't think you were? Like, we talked the other day... And I've only been here since, uh, Tuesday I guess.

[identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com 2010-07-24 10:41 pm (UTC)(link)
He's got zombie induced amnesia. So everyday, I try a new name with him to see if it triggers something...also, that's why I'm working on making cranes for him!!

So yeah, felt like longer for me, I guess...

[personal profile] team_sociopath 2010-07-24 10:55 pm (UTC)(link)
What're cranes gonna do?

I heard that happens with people coming and going, something weird and time-travel-y.

[identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com 2010-07-24 10:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, you know...make 1000, get a wish that comes true.

Well, I guess I didn't miss much, did I...?
team_sociopath: (][fffffffffffffft)

[personal profile] team_sociopath 2010-07-24 10:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I've never heard that, but okay. So you were gonna wish to figure out who he was?

Not really except for the crazy noise today.

[identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com 2010-07-24 11:03 pm (UTC)(link)
He says he doesn't care...but I think he does, in some way...so I wanna help him find out at least a little.

Oh yeah, the weird buzzing. I don't mind it, but what is it?
team_sociopath: (][easily distracted)

[personal profile] team_sociopath 2010-07-24 11:10 pm (UTC)(link)
That's nice of you.

No idea. A curse I guess, that's what I heard. I've been avoiding it as much as I can.

[identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com 2010-07-24 11:12 pm (UTC)(link)
He's my best friend. I'd do whatever I thought was right to make him happy, you know?

...You can avoid it? How?
team_sociopath: (][can't bite my nails through gloves)

[personal profile] team_sociopath 2010-07-24 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. Sure.

...If you're going fast enough you can't really hear it. Not as much at least.

[identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com 2010-07-24 11:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh. You can move faster than sound, that's neat! I mean, I knew you were fast, but...
team_sociopath: (][impressive action shot)

[personal profile] team_sociopath 2010-07-24 11:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Well it's not the sonic boom thing, it's-- like, you know how if an ambulance passes by it gets whiny and then it sounds normal and then it gets lower and fades out? Like that.

[identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com 2010-07-24 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Coool...
team_sociopath: (][saving the day is pretty cool)

[personal profile] team_sociopath 2010-07-24 11:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah so. It helps a little anyway.

[identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com 2010-07-24 11:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Hey, its only for a day!
team_sociopath: (][sorry I wasn't listening)

[personal profile] team_sociopath 2010-07-24 11:36 pm (UTC)(link)
That's this place's thing, right? Crazy day, a few normal days, crazy day?

[identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com 2010-07-24 11:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. Crazy doesn't always mean fun, but at least it's not boring...
team_sociopath: (][cough cough subtlety cough)

[personal profile] team_sociopath 2010-07-24 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
The dinosaurs were pretty fun. Mostly. Uh, except for the... angry meat-eating ones, those were less fun.

[identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com 2010-07-24 11:44 pm (UTC)(link)
I never got to ride one...mega bummer.
team_sociopath: (][some attempt at dignity)

There might be some in the zoo? There's unicorns and stuff. I ran through before.
