[005 | video]

Anyone know how to fight a dinosaur?

[Someone got out on the wrong side of the velociraptor-susceptible bed this morning. Shirtless and rumpled and bleeding all over the toilet cistern he's sitting on, Luke's having the worst sleepover ever.

But there is a moment of peace in which to make this whispered video, and so he tacks on a maudlin revelation.]


America's stuff's disappeared. That means he's really gone, doesn't it?

[He knows it does. Doesn't stop him hoping someone will tell him otherwise.

Something heavy slams into the bathroom door, and Luke jerks back, staring for one, two tense seconds as he waits to recreate the worst scene in Jurassic Park. Outside, that shit-stirring little reptile is hissing and screeching like the smug bastard he is. He knows what he does.]


But the dinosaur's free. And mad. The dinosaur's really mad. Help. Please.

[Someone. Before he has to start surviving off toothpaste and soap flakes.]

...I'd intended to run around and distract it. Preferably from beyond its reach. But thank you for the vote of confidence in my courage.

[A man after her own heart. But it sounds like a solid plan.]

All right, then. I hope you brought your trainers.

[She hefts the tranq gun up.]

As soon as this puppy is ready to shoot, I'll let you know.

[She begins charging it up.]

Trainers? [He starts running.] What are you talking about?!

[Okay, to be fair she should have made a better assessment of her use of the word trainers but she was sort of preoccupied by angry dinosaurs.]

Running shoes. But it looks like you've got it handled.

[She fiddles with the gun's controls.]

Come on, come on, warm up.

[Every second feels like it's taking forever and then BAM. A flash of lights and this dinosaur is sleeping like it's friend. Relieved, Amy lets the gun fall to her side and leans against the door frame.]

Well, at least that part's over. Hopefully there's enough juice in this thing to keep them out for a while.

[He just ducks a claw when the beast goes down and he stops to look down at it.]

Running shoes? [He's wearing very smart boots, thank you.] Do they make shoes just for running?

[Thank goodness the raptors are sleeping because Amy can't help but gape at him.]

Of course they do. They make shoes for everything. Don't they have special shoes where you come from? [Hint: because if not Amy is taking you closet shopping.]

The king wears special shoes. They're not, generally, very practical.

In the future, my present, they make all kinds of shoes. Ones for running, ones for working, ones for dressing up, sandals, boots, you name it. I can show you sometime if you like.

What would I do with so many shoes?

[personal profile] oncefairytale 2014-04-07 10:24 am (UTC)(link)
Wear them of course! You can't just go around wearing the same shoes all the time. Different outfits call for different shoes. Even if you aren't from modern times, surely even you know that.

[He just looks at her for a moment, then turns towards the bathroom.]

Luke, the dinosaurs are sleeping! Come out here and tell me how many shoes you own!

Nobody's hurt! What do you do with seven pairs of shoes?
