meme | #002 -- absolute obedience ( do you do you want to )

[the]

the ABSOLUTE OBEDIENCE MEME 1. Post with your character. 2. That character is compelled to follow the orders of anyone who replies. 3. Any orders. 4. Any orders. Meme Strategy: There's nothing in the rules about whether or not your character knows s/he must obey - as well, the other character might not know that s/he must be obeyed. Play it however you like. Don't like the orders you got? Not willing to have your character follow them, even if you've had a good time up to this point? Talk to the other player, use OOC notes or PMs, try and work it out. Got some stuff you'd never want to play out? Consider making a preferences post and linking to it when you reply here. Wanna give orders that people would love to follow? Give em context. Make it a story. Is this about revenge? Working out some personal issues? Too dumb to realize that the other guy has to do whatever your guy says?

Yes you are.

[bluesuit_handy]

Am not. [And he absently pulls three random objects out of his pockets - a pen, a clockwork mouse, and a key of some sort - and starts juggling. Hey, he doesn't know Sherlock's definition of boring.]

Maybe you're the boring one, ever think of that?

[the_new_sexy]

The thought never even crossed my mind.

[bluesuit_handy]

Liar. [Handy still feels strongly urged to Not Be Boring, but he's not getting much in the way of feedback.]

Want me to tell you a story, or what?

[the_new_sexy]

That would work.

[bluesuit_handy]

Alright, Mister Fussy Baby. What sort of story do you want? [He stops juggling and tucks the things back into his pockets, leaning against the nearest leanable surface.]

[the_new_sexy]

Don't bother with a mystery.

[bluesuit_handy]

Alright - well -

Once upon a time there was a man who stole a car. Except he wasn't really a man, he was an alien, and it was a spaceship and she sort of stole him, to an extent.

[the_new_sexy]

Dull.

[bluesuit_handy]

Even if it's true?

[the_new_sexy]

[dismissive] It isn't.

[bluesuit_handy]

[Ahaa, something out of Handy's new master this guy's realm of experience!]

What if I were half alien - half that man - and I could prove it to you right now?

[the_new_sexy]

[deadpan] I would be deliriously impressed.

[bluesuit_handy]

Got a thermometer?

[the_new_sexy]

No.

[bluesuit_handy]

[And the smile drops from his face. How is he supposed to avoid boring this man??]

Any good at gauging body temperature by feel, then?

[the_new_sexy]

Yes.

Why, are you running a temperature? Does that suddenly make you an alien?

[bluesuit_handy]

Just the opposite, actually.

Come on, don't be shy.

[the_new_sexy]

[crosses his arms]

What am I supposed to register your temperature as?

75 degrees Fahrenheit/23.8 C

[bluesuit_handy]

If I told you, it'd color your perception.

[the_new_sexy]

[Doesn't bother moving]

I anticipate that you're going to say it's something dramatically different from a humans', but I doubt it.

[bluesuit_handy]

Oh, for - here, will you just bloody feel it? [And he reaches out and grabs Sherlock's hand, trying to press the back of it it against his own forehead.]
