This is the worst thing. [Crane sounds young. And crackly. And sulky.] Why don't I get to be old? It's much better than being like this. I don't even know if my higher brain... [Pause. For a long second.] workings are working. I'm not leaving my room until it's over.

Also all the old people should stay away from all the not old people. They might have diseases. But I would still rather be with the old people.

[Warden filter]

You guys can still warden, right? Even without Howie? And even with your bodies like this?

[Private - Eames]

Where are you? Did the flood get you?

[Private - Capa]

The Admiral should have made us old. I hate this. [Crane's assuming that Capa's the same age as him. Because of the animal flood.]

[OOC: So, kid!Crane isn't operating on the same level as standard Crane. And also has a bit of barely suppressed anxiety about old people, particularly old women, stemming from his origin comic.]

Yes, we can still warden.

Even when you're old? And how are you meant to do it without Howie? He was the head warden. Everyone knows that. Even me.

I've been wardenin' this whole time, Sport. The old isn't that big a deal.

[systmadmin.livejournal.com]

Diseases? [His tone is curious.]

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

If the flood lasts a while they could. And then they'd all have the death toll after.

[systmadmin.livejournal.com]

Oh. [It's fatal.]

Are lethal diseases normally common to all old Users-- [A pause, then different word choice:] to old people?

I would switch with you if I could...

Private

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

We're the same, aren't we?

Private

[ourlastbesthope.livejournal.com]

Apparently not. I'm...quite old.

warden filter. derp.

[needshumility.livejournal.com]

Some of us still have our own bodies.

And I'd like to think we don't rely on one Yellow Prefect person to function together.

You're lucky, then.

Who do you rely on? All the other wardens?

[needshumility.livejournal.com]

I... think I am, yes.

Well, there seems to be plenty of discussion what to do when something goes wrong - I haven't seen anyone just plain ignoring people that have been... [not unruleful] who have done things wrong in authority.

Someone nearly always brings it up as an issue, and it wasn't always him.

[flashy-magic.livejournal.com]

Being old doesn't mean we're diseased, you know.

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

It increases the chances. Math tells you that.

[flashy-magic.livejournal.com]

It's not like we make germs. We might get sick easier, but it's you kids who spread them.

[consultcriminal.livejournal.com]

Better to be old? Surely not.

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

It depends how old. Not really, really old.

[consultcriminal.livejournal.com]

That's what they all are!

[Warden Filter]

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

I should say we're still quite capable, thank you. Not all of us got older, you know.

[Warden Filter]

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

Aren't you affected? I thought most people were.

Video.

[some-kinda-hero.livejournal.com]

I wanna see what you look like, Jonathan! Please?

[12 year old Claire forgot Eames she shouldn't call him by his first name.]

[Private] - [Video]

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

[Kid!Crane doesn't even mind. He still doesn't look impressed with the situation in general though.]

I look like this. This is the worst flood.

[Private] - [Video]

[some-kinda-hero.livejournal.com]

[She beams.]

You're cute.

[Which makes the 12 year-old brain giggle.]

How is this the worst when we've had that crazy nightmare one with the blood sacrificing? Or the one that made our fears come to life or, oh! You hated the hug flood.

[Private] Hiatus for real starting tomorrow. >>;

[aforger]

In my cabin. I'm affected, but I rather enjoyed this period in my life.

You can stay here for the duration if you like.

[Private] I creeper on you shamelessly. ;-; I don't mind slow/backtagging ect. c:

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

You're younger then? Like I am?

I might. I don't know how Iago is. Or Dawsey. Or Arthas. Or the vampires.
