1st Code - Written / Action

I've found a bar, Good Spirits. All well and good. Grateful to see this place has that at least.

What I'm curious is-- What other forms of entertainment are there? What do you do all do here for fun?

[Never mind that he has a very specific idea of "fun." He won't be mentioning that just yet.]

[Action

Both as he writes and a good while after, Anthony Blunt sits at the bar of Good Spirits, nursing a stronger-than-standard Scotch and soda.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

If you enjoy musical entertainment, there is a nightclub, Cloud Nine, on the second floor of the restaurant. [Hey, she's the owner. She's allowed to promote her own place.]

Otherwise movies, pool, and other games can be found at the rec center. There's a library if you enjoy reading, and the Battle Dome and barracks work well for training.

Good Spirits and Cloud Nine.

I will keep those in mind. Thank you.

You're welcome. Any other questions I can answer while I'm here?

Just one, I suppose.

What sort of judicial system is there here?

There isn't one. There are groups around to help out if there's any trouble, but otherwise people watch out for their own.

Im working on getting TV to this place!!!

[More like he's demanding someone else work on getting TV to Luceti, but same thing really.]

But theres shopping

TV?

Ya!! Dont you know what that is?

I don't believe so.

Youre probably from the past or something

You know plays? Its like that! Except its in this box!! They recorded it from this camera and play it through the TV

Theyre really awesome

[Mac never writes responses - the process is too slow, and his spelling isn't the best.]

Hey! Miss Ginia tol' me that they got a tv an' some flicks at the Rec Center. I still gotta go check that place out 'cause I wanna see if they got some Rocky.

["Television" he has some connection with, as the things have begun to crop up in his time, but "TV" does not translate automatically, nor does "flick."

So, instead, he'll pick the one thing he can properly ask about.]

Rocky?

Y'know... the Rocky movies... [After a brief moment of expectant silence, he adds:] Rocky Balboa, the boxer?

I'm afraid I've never heard of him, Mac. I'm sorry.

[His tone holds pure incredulity.] Really? Never? ...Wow.

[Just lets that sink in for a second.]

Rocky's a real great movie character. Growin' up, I thought he was so cool... an' I still do. He's kind a' been like an idol t'me.

There is always the library.

I shall have to pay it a visit. A good collection, I trust?

[Not that he really plans to spend too much time there. But it's polite.]

From different worlds. It's actually bigger on the inside.

From different worlds. Yes, that might prove interesting.

I read one once. A play called Loveless.

[Just one stool down from Anthony is Guy, rather enjoying his drinking, though nursing is not a word one might use to describe the way he was taking his glasses.

Three empty ones sat before him, the crystal memorial tumblers of Double Burgesses knocked back dead. The poor, forgotten droplets of the spent beverages, the streaks that settle toward the bottom were abandoned and left to pool alone while the rest of the drink was thrown down his throat. While Guy sits tapping the fourth--a 'plus one' graduation from his usual morning sequence--he chuckles as he regards dear Anthony's questions.]

Wanting for amusement, are we?

[It's a shame Luceti isn't as much like England in the sort of men that inhabited it, or else there would be plenty to do.]

[In England, he would only have had to find one bar and learned to wait and watch. Luceti, though...

The men were different. At the very least, they would all take far more work. Which... Well. He was not opposed to a challenge, but he did like having variety without having to work too hard.]

Quite.

You know, there is a club here. I spoke with a woman who plays the piano on particular nights and I though you and Kim might enjoy that.

[The fourth and last Double Burgess is brought to his lips, swallowed away with the quick chase of his tongue over the bottom half of his mouth.]

Cloud Nine, yes. [He tapped the journal in front of him.]

A pity it probably won't supply quite the entertainment I'm looking for. [He could have said "we." After all, he knew full well that Burgess was about as used to having no one-- or just someone all too familiar-- to have fun with.] We shall have to go.

It seems the lovely systems of Luceti are quite well formed lacking a few social comforts I've missed quite terribly.

[How unlike Guy, not to have brought his journal. He reaches into his coat pocket for his cigarette case instead.]

There is an aesthetic beauty, at least.

[Guy had spoken to several men already that were undoubtedly handsome. Just a shame that the Law of Burgess did not seem to have any sway.]
