majorbonerkiller[The video screen shook a bit, as Ivan seemed to be adjusting it after finally figuring out how the damn thing worked. His face took up the majority of the screen.
Amazing! This thing didn't even look like a camera, and it seemed to do a lot more than just that too. They had portable cameras where he came from, but video was a whole 'nother story.
There was a whine, obviously feral, and the camera shifted down to a small yellow rat. Or Pikachu, but Ivan preferred to call it a rat.]
Heh! And look at this thing--it fits into a ball!
[He shoves it with his foot. The "rat" protests again, sparking angrily. Ivan either ignores it or simply doesn't notice as he turns the camera back to his beautiful visage. The lens wasn't as close now, and his Soviet Major's uniform could be seen. He had refused to change into his new Rocket uniform.]
If somebody could explain to me how to get home, the only assholes I talked to--
[And that's about the last thing Ivan says (besides a surprised scream) as he gets a good shock and the feed ends.]

Date: 2011-03-04 12:36 am (UTC)[But the Colonel wasn't dead, and he clenched his jaw and scowled at Kaz over the screen.]
You're nothing but lowlife scum who has no idea what he's talking about! The Colonel is alive and well, and if he were here right now he'd make it known.
[video] WHOOPS
Date: 2011-03-04 12:39 am (UTC)[Would this face lie to you, Raikov?]
Do me a favor and tell me what year it was for you.
[video]
Date: 2011-03-04 12:53 am (UTC)[He's still peaking in agitation; blame it on the fact even the idea of Volgin being dead was enough to cripple him.]
What year? You don't even know what year it is?
[video]
Date: 2011-03-04 12:55 am (UTC)[video]
Date: 2011-03-04 12:57 am (UTC)...1964.
[video]
Date: 2011-03-04 01:00 am (UTC)Aha! See, I thought so. Ten years out of date from where I'm standing.
[video]
Date: 2011-03-04 01:03 am (UTC)[But what if--Volgin--no, no, that was a stupid thought. He shouldn't let it get to him.
Plans with the Shagohod were going accordingly.]
[video]
Date: 2011-03-04 01:05 am (UTC)Nope! Sounds pretty unbelievable, I know. But I've met people here from further in the future. The past, too. It's pretty wild.
[video]
Date: 2011-03-04 01:14 am (UTC)...[He rolled his eyes and shook his head, speaking in a dubious tone.]
Sure. Whatever you say.
[video]
Date: 2011-03-04 03:48 am (UTC)It's the truth. The sooner you start being a little more open minded the sooner things will start to make a little more sense around here. But hey, I'm not going to twist your arm about it.
Re: [video]
Date: 2011-03-05 10:08 am (UTC)[A small smirk pulls at the corner of his lips.]
Being open minded could be a sentence years in prison. I would be careful flaunting that mindset around. ...But, this isn't Tselinoyarsk or anywhere in Russia. I knew that the moment I opened my eyes.
[The stage of denial seems to have ended.]
[video]
Date: 2011-03-05 10:17 am (UTC)And there's a difference between being careful and being a stubborn fool. It's a shame. You're denying yourself a lot of opportunities. I don't have any reason to lie to you.
[Except for the fact that he doesn't really need one.]
[video]
Date: 2011-03-08 05:36 pm (UTC)Who do you think you're calling a fool? I've woken up in some mysterious town and you think I'm a fool for being careful?
[He sneered a bit, but seemed to back down.]
Tell me then, what "opportunities" am I missing?
[Might as well milk the attractive man for information.]
