Oh. Well, if you figure it out on your side, perhaps we can use what you learn here!

It's been months and we haven't gotten any closer to figuring it out, I'm sorry to say. I'm trying to get a lock on your signal so that we can keep in contact in the future, but it's like trying to hold onto a wet fish, keeps slipping away.

[Trying to not sound horribly disappointed, and failing.] Ah. Well um, somehow I'm not surprised. But I appreciate your help anyway....

Well...! *erk, erk* I've got your signal right now. Tell me about yourself. Tell me about 2010! That's two years before the ancient data system known as the internet was destroyed because a business called "AOL" took over the megasite Youtube... December 12th, 2012! I remember it... they called it the day the world was destroyed, or something like that.

About what? 12/12/12?

Sure I am. It's in all of our history books. It was a chaotic time in Earth's history.

[Kirk's caught himself a pretty gullible fish on the end of his hook.]

I... that's just... absurd. You can just tell he's trying to imagine this on the other end of the line.]

Why is it absurd? It was a huge event in history and I was taught it young... no more than fifteen for sure.

I-I just... are you sure? I mean they're just companies, how...?!

*laughter* Relax, relax, relax... I'm just joking a little with you. April Fools, and all. Humanity hasn't done anything too stupid. Yet.

[OH GOODNESS. SO EMBARRASSED. If you could only see how red he was.]

Ahaha, I thought it sounded too absurd to be true... um. So it's April Fool's Day? Ah, I'd been so busy I hadn't noticed...

Wait! Does that mean everything else you told me...?!

[identity profile] kirktastic.livejournal.com 2010-04-01 09:57 pm (UTC)(link)
*quiet laughing* No. Everything else I told you was the truth. I don't know if that makes things better or worse...

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2010-04-01 10:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah. Um. Well I'll take your word on it, then. [He chuckles.]

Again, thanks for your assistance. I suppose I should have known getting outside assistance was too good to be true. Even if you found the location, I wonder if you could getting if we can't get out...

I wouldn't come down there, I could just beam you up to the ship.

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2010-04-02 02:52 am (UTC)(link)
"Beam" up? I don't think I follow.
