You know, after all the months fawning after Adam I'd imagined that some of you would tire of his presence. But all I hear in the dining hall is about Adam. "Adam saved me during a flood." This person had a tryst with Adam. Adam is such a wonderful person.

Well, let me tell you a story about Adam, barge. It was during a particularly nasty port where myself and a former barge member called Irene Adler were stuck in a ward, attempting to avoid being gruesomely murdered by no less than one dozen undead patients. Despite Adler's skills and my efforts, we were unable to hold off the hoards of undead. You can understand our surprise when Adam burst into the room and started assisting us. We managed to kill the zombies, following a rather ingenious plan of Adam's involving a puddle of water and some faulty wiring on one of the medical machines.

Do you see the problem with this story, barge? Adam could have killed both Adler and I. But he was so wrapped up in his heroics that he failed to consider that some of us might not want to get electrocuted. He simply didn't care. Instead, he forced his plan on us and hoped for the best. [Crane does not sound impressed.] Classical Adam. No sense of boundaries, no urge to ask permission or for the input of others. And yet, he seems to be one of the most well known people on board. I fail to understand his appeal.

[Rant over. Crane pauses for a few moments.] Hayley. Claire. Nygma. I want to talk to you three. Despite my continuing lack of filters.

[OOC: Sorry, Adam. Crane is so emotionally functional in how he shows his respect. Also, his flood affected-ness is to be more empathetic, so he might feel bad if you bring up past issues. Although you might not be able to tell.]

Still? This is borderline cruel, or negligent. It must be a new record for the length of time someone has gone without their filters.

What is it that you want to talk about?

[hopeless-hacker.livejournal.com]

You're still welcome for that.

[OOC: Zombie story is cool but the Dalek/riot stuff....wouldn't have happened. He wouldn't put himself in a position where he's universally adulated or has a long history of major heroics because it would make him a little bit too noticeable.]

[Rant aside, she replies.]

You just want to meet in person?

Typical.

Mocking the one person on the barge who actually knows what the hell he's doing.

[aforger]

He's a good mate to play poker with, if nothing else.

[Private]
I'd like to have a talk with you tonight after dinner, unless you would rather conduct it here.

[everylittlegirl]

Yeah, of course. That place where that thing happened when I was nanomited? The first place, I mean, not the beach. Obviously. -- I'm still sorry about that, by the way.

[He could care less about Adam, or what he did and what just recently happened, but the mention of the undead is what really interests Alex.]

How long ago did you encounter these zombies? What happened to them?

[He has yet to become victim to one of these floods.]
