013 [video]

[Dick is wandering around the house, which is a nice, normal looking place. He's particularly focusing on the family photos and any other traces of the people who apparently really live here who happen to look... just like him and some other Barge people. Including apparently Wally. And Tim. Who are both the wrong ages.]

I'm still in the "this could be worse" stage, but not gonna lie, this is pretty freaky. I think I'm a cop. And maybe ten years older.

So, guess we should have a sound off? Who else is totally wigging out a little over this?

... And anyone seen Wally? I think he's [Dear god this is so weird.] my kid.

[Private to Costigan]

You make it off the Barge? You seem to be a popular guest star in some of these pictures. [Meaning it looks like they're both cops. Which is. Fun.]

I... might have lost him. Or he lost me. I don't know, he's stranded at Wal-Mart and I'm trying to find the car keys.

Hey, at least it's not philosophy or something? What's a really dorky major?

I have a yellow beetle I can lend you. If you won't be too emasculated by it. Keys in hand.

I would prefer philosophy or classical studies, or anything over a business major.

That would be great. Call me crazy, but I'm weirdly worried he's gonna get kidnapped or something. I guess neurotic parent tendencies are a side effect of this... whatever this is. I'm going with port.

Think you can switch?

At least no one's about to be slaughtered. Unless this is a Stepford neighborhood. [She's slowly getting up so she can head outside.] Are you nearby?

I hope so.

Don't tempt fate, you know the admiral seems to get his jollies from making us suffer.

Uh, I don't know. What's your address?

Or he's taping us for a new television show.

502 North Willow? Does that sound familiar? [Still, she turns her device so it shows her house. Which I don't have a picture for at the moment.]

Let's hope not.

I think you're right up the street. Hang on, I'll be right there.

Sure.

[Ariadne continues to stand out in front of her house, bug keys in hand and at least enjoying the decent weather even if she looked like she spent more time on her outfit than on studying for school. Thus was the life of a business major, she supposed. But still, she would be glad to see Dick and have things at least be a little familiar.]

[And here comes Dick, jogging up the street because FML he lost Wally. Really he should probably be more concerned that Costigan hadn't checked in yet - as he still wasn't exactly at 100% - but Wally was twelve and he really didn't need someone - maybe even one of his coworkers or something - bringing the kid home in a squad car.]

Hey. Thanks for helping, I have nooo idea what he's doing at Wal-Mart.

[Ariadne smiles at him, holding the keyfob out.]

Maybe there's an action figure he wants. [She gives a kind of shrug before asking:] You know how to drive stick shift, right?

[Grumbles, but clearly just teasing as he takes the car keys.] Or he saw some girl he wants to flirt with. I can drive stick. You wanna come with? Or would that be weird and blow our cover of being perfectly normal townspeople?

[Ariadne almost grinned at that.]

Jensen apparently works at Wal-Mart. So I have every reason to go, if just to stalk him apparently.

[Because that's what normal people do. She moves around to the passenger side of the bug and slid in, doing her best to pull her skirt down if at all possible. At least she wasn't orange with fake-tan, right?]

Funny, you don't seem like the stalker type.

[He hops into the front seat, buckles his seat belt and turns the car on, carefully backing out of the unfamiliar drive way onto the unfamiliar road.] So, who is this "Jensen"?

[She buckles her seat belt as well and takes a quiet glance around the interior of the bug. The lei hanging from the rear-view mirror seemed absolutely unnecessary, but then again so did the Lady Gaga song that started playing from the iPod tucked one of the cup holders. Before she knew it, the architect reached over and turned down the volume. What the hell was that?]

According to my phone and the notebook I found earlier, he's the love of my life and he's just so cute I can hardly stand it.

[Ariadne looks less than thrilled as she digs through the glove compartment, trying to find the car's registration or insurance, just in case. What she found instead was a photo of Jensen (http://ericbrady.tripod.com/eric02.jpg) with white out writing on it.]

Looks like this is him here.

Edited 2011-01-20 18:11 (UTC)

[Dick definitely is having a moment of dear god, I hope no one I'm supposed to know sees me in this car with a lei and whatever this music is, but he'll get over it. Especially because he's too busy laughing his head off about Jensen the Wal-Mart boy who's so cute she can't stand it. Especially because lol he looks like a dork.]

Wow Ariadne, you sure know how to pick 'em.

Hey, I didn't pick him!

[She's, again, trying to do her best to look disapproving but wow this picture. She wonders if that's him in his wal-mart uniform. Splendid, she has such standards. She looks through a couple pages of her notebook before reading aloud, in a deadpan,]

"He looked at me today, Jensen did. He's just so cute. I can't wait to be his wife. I hope he asks me out sometime soon because I can't even wait! I'll go see him at his work and see if he notices my new shoes!"

[She paused.]

"XOXO Mrs. Jensen Ackles."

[brb, loling forever.] Thank god you're not this vapid on the Barge, I feel like I'd have to push you over the side.

[Her wide, wide smile is more than close to laughter, but she just can't quite do it.]

Well, if I start following you around and talking about how cute you are, you can feel free to do so. I give you permission.

[She runs a hand along her eyebrow, wondering how much worse Daneel could get. And then she found it.]

"I hope that when I become a pop star, Jensen will follow me. I think he's the one for me. Plus, he totally looks hot in that red shirt of his."

[Oh ugh. That would explain the tapes in her room labeled, 'send to Capitol.']

Noted.

[It's a good thing Dick is a good driver, or he would probably have swerved and gotten them into an accident with that last comment.] A pop star? Geez, how old are you supposed to be, twelve?

[Ariadne shakes her head and pulls out her wallet.]

She's nineteen and I know that I can't sing.

[She couldn't carry a tune in a bucket unless it was superglued to her hands. So, hopefully, she wasn't going to have to do any singing to anyone, least of all Dick. That would just be embarrassing.]

That would explain the business major. Maybe the music school didn't take her.

Man, you're finding out all sorts of exciting things about yourself today. And to think I'm just a cop who can't seem to keep track of his one kid.

[There's a slight pause.] I have very little idea of where we're going.

[Ariadne glanced up from the phone, donning a more serious look. She really didn't either.]

Shouldn't it be off a main road of some kind?

[That had been her small experience with Wal-Marts since she'd left for France a few years ago.]

Probably. I figure if we drive around enough we'll figure it out, but not gonna lie? I kinda wish we'd at least gotten a file or a dossier or something to read before we got dumped here.

[Really, was that too much to ask?]

[Ariadne nods quietly, agreeing without needing to say anything.]

And who's to say that we aren't disrupting their lives by being here.

I guess we just need to be careful. Might want to brush up on your valley girl accent.

... Maybe this is just my upbringing coming through, I don't really like the suburbs.
