major_west[We interrupt your screaming and indignant rage with a very polished English voice.]
Hello?
My name is Major Henry West, formerly of the M602 Blockade, presently... [He pauses.] at an unknown location, and I have not been exposed to Infection. [LOL NOT TRUE.] I repeat: I am Major Henry West, and I have not been exposed to Infection.
[Another pause.]
The rescue-- if I may assume this is indeed a rescue-- is appreciated, but I'm afraid I'm at something of a loss with regards to the details of it. Where are we, and how secure are these premises? How many survivors are there?
[OOC: People on Level 3 may have heard him screaming in horror and agony as he appeared, as West has just returned from his death at the hands of Mailer. He's been listening in on the network a little and has popped his head out his door once, but doesn't really know WTF is going on. But, to those of you who haven't heard him scream like a little girl, he's going to act like he's totally fine and hasn't just experienced the death of all his boys.]

[Suddenly, VIDEO!]
[Video clicks on just as Billy is pulling away from the screen, he stops and stares for a moment, looking PRETTY BLATANTLY SCARED NOW.]
West, look at me, please just look at me and say you know who I am? Say you remember me, please.
VIDEO
Date: 2010-07-11 02:05 am (UTC)My apologies, but I believe you have me mistaken for somebody else.
VIDEO
Date: 2010-07-11 02:29 am (UTC)No, I haven't got you confused with anyone else. Major Henry West, with your stupid obsessive need to have all your shirts folded the right way, who made me go to MoMa when I wanted to go to Forbidden Planet [He almost sorta laughs at that. Then he looks down, and pulls something up on a chain around his neck.] Major Henry West, who keeps on disappearing, and who keeps on leaving me these:
[and he holds them up and SHOCK UPON SHOCK THEY ARE YOUR DOGTAGS! Not like I asked your permission to pull this classy stunt or anything.]
VIDEO
Date: 2010-07-11 02:49 am (UTC)That's impossible. Mine are--
[He reaches under his shirt to find them, then frowns when they're not where they should be.]
Did you go into my room while I was... [He blinks, hesitating for some unknown reason.] unconscious. [He repeats it, more to convince himself that he'd only been unconscious moments ago and not torn to shreds.] While I was unconscious?
VIDEO
Date: 2010-07-11 03:15 am (UTC)[Flippant bit of supervillainy right there. He's just so used to giving you lip, West.]
You have been here before, and you left me these because--
[He cuts himself off there, and suddenly the flippancy is gone, because he just realized that you don't remember any of this, and you're a lonely, demented closet case who wouldn't thank him for declaring himself your boyfriend on an open channel, and who will probably run back off to the the Marquis De Sade the first chance you get. For a split second, Billy looks utterly devastated as this thought hits him, and then he pulls his shit back together and coughs, scratching his head absent mindedly.]
Well, because we're friends. Or, we were friends. When you remembered everything.

Date: 2010-07-11 03:50 am (UTC)[There's sort of an awkward moment. Billy looks down at the dog-tags, then (as though a fresh thought occurs to him) suddenly looks back to West, sharply.]
Hey, you're not getting these back, you know? Just because you think you can just vanish and then come back all sarcastic and crazy again? That doesn't mean you can un-give me stuff!

Date: 2010-07-11 04:08 am (UTC)[OHLOL, that reminds me!]
Hey, look, if you start getting nightmares again? Maybe you could talk to the people at the infirmary about getting something to help you sleep? Or Libby, she's like a shrink who lives here. I mean, just if you have any trouble with sleeping, otherwise, it doesn't matter.

Date: 2010-07-11 04:49 am (UTC)We have been friends for two years.
I have lived two rooms away from you for two years, and yes in that time the first six months or whatever of you waking up screaming in the middle of the night did catch my attention.

Date: 2010-07-11 02:00 pm (UTC)Then I hope you find your Major Henry West one day, because I do not have amnesia.
VIDEO
Date: 2010-07-11 05:26 pm (UTC)[AND ANOTHER LONG PAUSE, but he just can't bear the thought of West being taken by surprise and upset by stuff.]
Oh! Hey! There's something else I should tell you! We have-- uh, there's a man on board who looks like Jim [He puts his hands up quickly] but who is not Jim, and who you should try really hard not to frenziedly attack.

Date: 2010-07-12 11:10 pm (UTC)I know that he's been here, a few times, and that as a general rule any time he shows up, you instantly try to kill him.
