Holograms 5 & 6

[realitymods]

[The hologram snaps on when Mu asks what Oliver was wondering about Saga and stops on Mu's slip-up over his own telepathy.]

[Almost half a day later, on comes the Doctor and Braxiatel about sins of the past and hopes for the futures.]

[I couldn't resist. I was sitting here, thinking if I should do it, and then went you know what I'm going to rain on Oliver's angry parade.

As you may or may not know, Nathan has been making it a game to ...run over the holograms with his flying horse. He missed one set because he was off the plane eating dinner or something but this time, oh, this time he won't miss.

On his black horse (mid-air, this thing flies, man!), still in his armor, and still with his eyes pure glowing red, he charges at the holograms. By god he will stomp them oh my god that's not entirely a hologram.]

Holy shit!

[Nathan pulls up on the reins to keep his horse from, you know, trying to stomp on Oliver. He loops back so he can blab.]

Oh dear sweet lord. I almost caved your fucking head in.

[onehundredbeers]

Uhhhh. No. I mean I hear some stuff as I ride by? But I don't care. Way more fun to run them over than stand around watching what could be a discussion about, I don't know, underwear.

[oliverplus]

[chuckles, shaking his head] Sounds like a good idea.

[onehundredbeers]

It's a fucking badass idea. It's all the fun of smashing heads open with none of the mess. [A beat.] Oh my god I should do this at home with our holograms. Awesome.

[oliverplus]

[laughs] Just watch where you're riding, all right?

[Nathan's random ideas are taking his mind off the red eyes, at least]

[onehundredbeers]

I'll try, but I make no promises for anyone who leaps out in front of me.

[oliverplus]

Uh...yeah, all right.

[thoughtfully] Can you even bring that horse home?

[onehundredbeers]

... Probably? I haven't tried it, but, uh, I don't see why not.

[oliverplus]

Gravity?

[onehundredbeers]

Fuck that! This horse is anti-gravity. I mean. Look. It's flying right there. It's not like there isn't gravity here. Too.

[oliverplus]

...good point. You might want to make sure he has some place to land when you try it, though. Just in case.

[onehundredbeers]

Pfff. I'm more worried about Toki trying to get revenge for his fucking troll.

[oliverplus]

[with a mixture of curiosity and dread] ...what troll?

[onehundredbeers]

This baby troll he found in Finland when we went back to apologize for destroying their country a second time.

[oliverplus]

The one you woke up, you mean? That was Toki's?

[onehundredbeers]

No, no, that was the first time we went to Finland to apologize for destroying their country.
