I would like everyone to join me in wishing a very happy birthday to Liminal Space's best six-and-a-half year old, Takashi Shirogane!

Happy birthday, dude. If I could make things, I'd make you a cake.

My nurses strapped me to a table, ignored what I was trying to tell them to save Earth, and sedated me when I begged them not to. So. At least as deaf.

...That was a weird opera.

[tookashirototheknee]

... they did what?????? . Dad's going to kill them.

[vrepit_no]

[....Shit. That went 100% opposite of plan.]

I can't blame them. I sort of crashed an alien ship not fifty miles from the Garrison after being a year vanished into space, neither of you were with me, I'd gained muscle and lost an arm, which was replaced by an incredible alien prosthetic, and I was yelling what probably sounded like gibberish to them. They didn't know what the tech could do and I was borderline hysterical. They didn't know my background while I was gone - how could they? So... yeah. They followed what was probably protocol to keep everybody safe.

... oh Jesus fuck what?

[vrepit_no]

...It's unfortunate, but not an unreasonable response in context. I'm sure they just wanted to calm me down and make sure I wasn't sick or about to explode. They didn't know what the prosthetic did, and at the time neither did I. They needed information. I can't really blame them.

[It hurts, and it means he can't trust them anymore, and he feels like he can't ever go back, but he can't blame them.]

[thornsofmalkav]

Yeah, maybe, but that still sucks goat balls.

[vrepit_no]

Heh. Little bit, yeah. Wasn't the most fun I've ever had.

[thornsofmalkav]

I'm so sorry for you, dude.

[vrepit_no]

I appreciate the sentiment, but don't worry about it. You get used to it.

[He's legit nonchalant about this.]

[thornsofmalkav]

[WORRYINGLY SO.]
