tangentdarko[VIDEO: Donnie is sitting at his desk, hunched over his computer a little bit and occasionally emphasizing his point with his hands. The technology is a bit beyond his time and he doesn't seem to realize it's a video function.]
What would Dr. Thurman say about this? Frank said the world would end, but it didn't. [His tone is almost whining for a second, then it switches to intellectual and excited.] It was just the end of that parallel.. of the tangent universe. I think this is a new one though. I don't think Grandma Death's book talked about this? [He seems to look around for a moment, then returns his attention to the computer.] I don't really know how closing one would create another..
[A pause, then he's complaining.] I don't want to live through October again.
I don't want this calendar. Someone take it. [A hint of desperation as he glances at the calendar on his wall, to his right; another pause, then back to a neutral tone.]
I hope wherever this is is better than the shithole I lived in before. [He laughs a little, not quite a genuine or sane laugh. Then his tone is falsely amused.] I don't really know how it couldn't be.

Date: 2010-06-11 02:51 am (UTC)Plus she was outside like, all the time in the sun and everything and I heard vampires are supposed to be attractive and she wasn't attractive at all. I think she might have even been religious too and that's kind of weird for a vampire. She was too fat to be a skeleton. And I found out she used to teach at my school and she wrote this book on time travel, so she couldn't have been a zombie because she was too smart. You see where there's like, a lot of flaws in your idea? Not to mention it's just illogical to call someone "grandma" if they're undead unless you're related to them.

Date: 2010-06-11 03:06 am (UTC)Hallucinations aren't a symptom.
[He yanks out the thermometer and looks at his temperature, then at Donnie.] Who are you?
no subject
Date: 2010-06-11 03:29 am (UTC)Only to induce terror at a later time.
But no... This would disappoint others who know of me. Instead, I shall teach you only one important lesson.
I am vampire, Sir.
And so, too, are others who dwell here.

Date: 2010-06-11 03:31 am (UTC)[He looks around for the missing book again, then stops suddenly.] Wait. This is my room. October 2. I never got the book. Do you know if we can get books here? I mean, not any books. I'm looking for a specific book.
no subject
Date: 2010-06-11 03:34 am (UTC)There's a library with...I don't know if the books were restored, but it has/had books from various worlds.

Date: 2010-06-11 03:43 am (UTC)[It's an amused question as Rex is flipping through pages and mentioning symptoms.]
Donnie Darko. Who are you?

Date: 2010-06-11 03:50 am (UTC)[He takes a breath, which is interrupted by a coughing fit.]
Rex Lewis. Doctor. [Wrong order.] Dr. Rex Lewis.

Date: 2010-06-11 04:12 am (UTC)Where is it?
no subject
Date: 2010-06-11 04:14 am (UTC)Whoa. Are you okay there?
You're pretty young for a doctor.

Date: 2010-06-11 04:21 am (UTC)[No big. He drops his hand.]
I always... excelled in my lessons.

Date: 2010-06-11 04:28 am (UTC)That's pretty cool that you're a doctor. I would say it's kind of ironic that you have the plague, but I guess the medic would be the most likely person to contract the disease since they're the ones treating the patients that probably contracted the disease in the first place.

Date: 2010-06-11 04:35 am (UTC)Would you believe, I got it from another doctor?
no subject
Date: 2010-06-11 04:39 am (UTC)That's not very good medical conditions, or really poor sanitation.
no subject
Date: 2010-06-11 04:42 am (UTC)It varies.

Date: 2010-06-11 11:25 pm (UTC)Death is a condition of arrival for many inmates, but I-- [He starts to cough and grabs a glass of water that's nearby] don't think I'm dead.

Date: 2010-06-12 03:38 am (UTC)You're pretty hot, though, so I guess I wouldn't mind if I turned into you.
no subject
Date: 2010-06-12 04:20 am (UTC)Because somebody told me I was still alive in their timeline.
no subject
Date: 2010-06-12 05:59 am (UTC)I mean, there are other ways to see the future and to change it too without a portal. If you can see the like, the spears that come out of people.. [Donnie disappears from the camera, then comes back with a small, rainbow slinky. He holds one end to his chest and extends the other out in front of him.] It's like this liquid that comes out of people's chests. It shows the way they're supposed to travel according to God's channel because all time is pre-determined.
