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.

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.]

Oh no, I woulda said that even if it wasn't the flood. I don't know if he's alien, human, a muppet, or a frayed artificial intelligence, but I know there is something unstable happening there.

You would have said it differently. [Pause.] Do you think the Admiral drinks?

[Warden Filter]

[most_feared]

If this was my ship, I sure as hell would.

[Warden Filter]

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

Do you drink now?

[Warden Filter]

[most_feared]

Not any more than I used to. This place is kind of run-of-the-mill to me. [Ho-hum.]

It's not like you have floods and ports at home. Is it?

[Warden Filter]

[most_feared]

Every day might as well be one.

[Warden Filter]

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

I don't know what you mean by that.

[Warden Filter]

[most_feared]

You don't want to.

Just worry about getting through the flood right now.

[Warden Filter]

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

Are there more old people or more younger people in the flood?

[Warden Filter]

[most_feared]

Why do you ask?

I think the older ones have an edge on the younger unless some haven't spoken up.

[Warden Filter]

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

If most are old, I'll be fine. People like Arthas and that.

[Warden Filter]

[most_feared]

[Stare. What?]

[Aaaaanyway.] Are you worried one of the kids is going to hurt you?

[Warden Filter]

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

No, if some people are really young or really old I'll be fine.

[Warden Filter]

[most_feared]

[....]

Well uh... let us know if that changes.

[Warden Filter]

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

I will. You and Eames.
