doctor_j_crane: Crane looking like he's arguing. (Let me explain)
[personal profile] doctor_j_crane
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.]

I understand. [Crane said evenly. It made sense.] As you can understand, I didn't find the blackmail afterward particularly pleasant.

[Even under the influence of the flood, Crane still wanted the key to his room back.]

"It wasn't blackmail. It was-- Okay, it totally was blackmail? But I was worried about us." It was a rare honest answer from Hayley, and mostly because she was affected. The girl shrugged a little awkwardly. "I'm not going to do anything with it and it helps our friendship."

[Spaaam] no more brackets c:

"It didn't help." Crane said shortly. Even with the flood, he was still slightly angry about what had happened. "It simply looked like you taking advantage of the situation to get something that you wanted."

Crane paused. He felt bad. That had been harsh. "I understand why you did it. But you have to understand that it seemed like something completely different from my end."

Hayley shifted uncomfortably and then shrugged. "Alright, so.. I'll give it back to you soon. I didn't mean for it to--"

The girl shrugged again and turned partially away, considering ending the conversation there. She had met him because he had asked her to, but this was not the topic she'd been hoping to discuss.

"I'd appreciate that." Crane looked just as uncomfortable as Hayley. "You shouldn't apologize though. You were just reacting to the Rex situation."

Crane suspected that it was more than that, but he didn't want to call Hayley out on it. Especially when she looked like she'd had enough of the topic.

Hayley shrugged again. "We're friends, right? I apologize to my friends."

She gave him a soft smile, then shifted as her eyebrows knitted together. "Is that what you wanted to talk about?"

"Are we?" Crane didn't entirely look like he thought so. "I was under the impression that the Rex issue had more or less ended that."

Which was partially what he'd wanted to talk about.
