[Cooper tried to come up with something eloquent. Honest. For ten whole minutes.]

I'm leaving.

[That was all he got. He even kills the feed. But a little while later, it clicks back on.] Some of you have reasons to stay, and some of you can't leave, I get that. Most of you use excuses, to stay or go. Mine's the people I care about. Things are ( Read more... )

I almost missed it here. And I really mean that almost, there's nothing like being home after a long time away. Sleeping in the same bed as my wife, hugging my kids. I drove Jake to school yesterday. I never get to do that when I haven't died and gone to Barge purgatory ( Read more... )

[Private to Kay]

I'm ready to talk.

Travelers make for customers, I always say. I'm called Will, and I'm the cooper here in town. Barrels, wheels - I'm a bit handy at a bit of everything, really. If it needs mending and its not clothes, I'm the house on the south end of High Street. There's a sign an everything, you can't miss it.

[Private to Sveta]Have you gone to market, wife? We ( Read more... )

Motherfucker.

[Cooper has been awake in the infirmary for maybe an hour now. He hates everything everyone stands for.]

Did someone short circuit the robot bitch? Fuck.

I'm not staying here all week. Someone check me out in an hour. I'm sleeping till then.

((OOC: SO Cooper was killed by T-X, I'm assuming Kay revived him, if that's all right ( Read more... )

[Cooper was going to post something deep. Something thoughtful. Something redeeming, because he is so Godamned close. But then there was a flood. And all deepness is gone.]

Now I know how Moses must feel. Christ, Kay, does your back hurt like this? Marquis, you're old. Weigh in. And someone get me some fucking aspirin.

[Obviously backdated to a while before the end of the flood. It's taken Cooper a while to get his shit together, okay. These things can be extremely difficult when you have to use CLAWS ( Read more... )

[Cooper is standing in a garden in the greenhouse. His gun is just out of sight as he's holstering it, and he's glancing at something on the ground.]

I need a med team...or whoever you send to take care of bodies, here. Sveta's dead. It should be over.

[He clicks off the video, but a few minutes later clicks it back on.]I could use some medical ( Read more... )

Like the bars weren't fucking loud enough already. If you're going to clutter the station, at least buy a round for the regulars. I'll take a few, if you've got the pockets.

((OOC: This is Will Cooper, former space marine of awesomeness and deserter. He's got the classic, I gave everything to the cause and lost everything for it and now I'm going ( Read more... )

[Cooper doesn't talk about shit that is actually important to him. So instead of raging about the danger his family is in, or the fact that he still doesn't have his gun back, or any of ten thousand other things, he is holding the mic of his device up to his wall, through which there is very audible, if slightly muffled barking.]Kirk, if you don't ( Read more... )
