Welcome to Gaia! ::

"And they've got the ENTIRE Bruce Campbell Appreciation Collection. Totally gotta have a zombie madness marathon one of these days. All zombies, all the time, until we can't feel our fingers." Liamh said eagerly with a manic expression.

"Ooo, yeah, i was perusing their anime collection. I was totally gonna watch, er, Ninja Scroll and some Evangelion, uh... right after some other stuff..." he eyed the pile warily, hoping the girly shoujo boxes with pink labels were far enough into the stack to not be noticeable. Hey, what wasn't to like about cute schoolgirls in short uniforms with crazy hijinx?

"Three weeks, huh." That was about how long he was slated to be working here, he thought. "Trapped is definitely the word," he chuckled wryly. It would be so easy to stay longer - he himself was already thinking - planning, even - to ask for a week vacation after the work was up. "They're making it a popular place. And yeah, it's gonna be a pain, but at least it's a nice location to be stuck in, if you've gotta." He wondered vaguely if they were working on-site too, instead of just vacationing. Would make sense - they'd need a lot of staff to get this thing up and running. Most likely he wouldn't be seeing much of all this gorgeous location, stuck in flourescent lighting and closed in walls for three weeks working on the networking stuff, but hey, at least he had a great view to come back to.

He reached over and gave Gaius a quick pat on the shoulder. "Ah, escaping reality. That, my friend, is exactly why we're here. Gathered before this flat-screened, liquid crystal monolith, we make supplication and recieve endless brain-numbing entertainment goodness. All hail modern living, eh?" He grinned, glancing at Marshall with a gesture.

He really did wonder what sort of event had prompted them to get up in those weird getups.

Gaius groaned, rolling his eyes in a blatant fashion. "More zombie flicks? I don't know what it is with you and movies about gory undead stuff... If you two want to watch that, fine, but you're not going to get me to!" He folded his arms, firmly standing behind his view. "If you want me to stay, you'll just have to choose something different!"

"Besides, there's so many better movies available!" He gestured to the shelves with a hopeful grin. "Can we pleeease watch something other than cheesy horror?"

"You, Gaius, obviously have no taste for high-quality art!" Marshall said in a mockingly snotty voice, putting the two "classics" back on the rack. Lets see...Action, action, action...Hmmm... Marshall thought, picking up a copy of Princess Monoke. It was actiony, right?

"Oh! Yeah! Halloween IS coming up! Heh heh, I totally forgot! And Liamh, you got yerself a Marathon Buddy." Marshall said, looking up from the DVD case, happy to find some one else with a love of the under-appreciated B movie.

"Woo, you're on..." Liamh leaned over to high-five the guy with the black nose, then glanced back at the elf-ears fellow.

Chairs to fit the what now?

Liamh raised an eyebrow. "Yeeeaaah, i never was good with building stuff." He wrinkled his nose. "Great that you can, though, making stuff for everybody else must be rewarding. I'm lucky if i can set a card table up without it collapsing. Gimme a nice VCR to program, and i'm your guy." He folded his arms behind his head proudly.

"Eh, IKEA's not too bad, just the nicer stuff tends to be pricey! But still, great for a budget appartment..." He shrugged. "And I'll keep you in mind if I ever need help with programming, uh..." He blinked, realizing he hadn't even asked the blonde guy's name yet. "Er... sorry, I think I missed your name...?"

At Marshall's suggestion, Gaius tilted his head, one ear tilting back in confusion. "Mono-nookaay? Is that one of those Japanimation things?" He shrugged. "Well, I guess if it's in English, and not too girly, it'll be fine."

"Actually, its pronounced Marshall. But common mistake, really. Nice to meet you, Doradan." Marshall chuckled, checking the box. Yep, it was the Dubbed version. Nothing wrong with English voice-overs, as long as Marshall was concerned at least.

"Thats Gaius. He's kinda like my Older Brother or some thing...And its called an Anime, no ones called it Japanimation since the 1980s, Gaius." Marshall snickered, getting to his feet, putting the DVD into the player. He needed some mindless Japanese Animated Violence after the past few days.

Liamh grinned. "You actually get used to subtitles after a while, i've learned to prefer it. Never learned to like coffee, but gimme the subtitles."

Liamh smiled, rubbing his hand a bit after Gaius' enthusiastic handshake. "Well, Marshall and Gaius, then. Got kind of a Roman thing going there?" He smirked. "Emperor Gaius and 'Martial' Law?"

He removed his glasses and looked at the lenses in a pre-movie clearness check. "Eh, you know, Bruce Campbell, god of B-horror zombie movies? And Orlando Bloom?" he said, polishing them on his shirt.
