Uh, hey. Is anyone else experiencing... clones?

[There is a muffled banging and the sound of a voice from the next room.]

Shit. Uh, I gotta go. I think mine just got out.

It's not fair! Why don't I get a clone!?

[totallyinaband]

Count yourself luckily. It's... really unsettling.

[loonyandproud.livejournal.com]

Why? What's he trying t' do?

[totallyinaband]

It just keeps looking at me.

I did manage to get it back in the bathroom, though.

[loonyandproud.livejournal.com]

What? How d'you know he isnae friendly?!

[totallyinaband]

I'd... rather not try and find out.

[loonyandproud.livejournal.com]

Have y' tried talking to him through the door?

[totallyinaband]

Why would I want to talk to the creepy clone version of myself? That's weird on just... so many levels.

Do you think if I open the front door then let him out of the bathroom he might wander off on his own?

[loonyandproud.livejournal.com]

Why don' you ASK HIM? Or if y' think it's too creepy, I'LL come and ask him!

[totallyinaband]

Yeah, you do that. Or better yet take him out of my apartment. It's really disconcerting him being here.

[loonyandproud.livejournal.com]

Okay! This is gonna be brilliant!

[And then Campbell comes over and knocks at the door about 10 minutes after saying he will. He really wishes he had a clone today, okay?]

Action!

[totallyinaband]

[Stephen opens the door looking frazzled. He definitely isn't in one of his neurotic fit moments, but it looks like it might be imminent. Sporadic knocking is still coming from the bathroom, which has a chair wedged under the door handle.]

That was fast, man.

Re: Action!

[loonyandproud.livejournal.com]

I ran! This is pure dead brilliant. [He walks in, and over a bit to the bathroom door.] D'you mind if I talk t' him now?

[risetwice.livejournal.com]

Clone...?

[totallyinaband]

Yeah. Kind of dumb, mostly silent, and eerily accurate ones.

I locked mine in the bathroom.

[risetwice.livejournal.com]

They just...showed up?

[totallyinaband]

Yeah. I woke up and it was standing over my bed. Watching me.

[risetwice.livejournal.com]

I don't...

That doesn't sound very good.

[totallyinaband]

Yeah. No kidding, man.

[There is another muffled bang from the next room.]

[coolestsoul.livejournal.com]

Yeah and mine won't leave me alone.

[totallyinaband]

Yeah, me neither. That's why I locked it in the bathroom.

[coolestsoul.livejournal.com]

I'd do that, but I've got people I'm rooming with. Even I'm not that twisted.

[justcautious.livejournal.com]

So yours IS tryin' t' kill you?

Did 'e start from the start? Or-- Did you 'ave to run, soon as you woke up? ... Or did it go gradual, like?

Least you know which one's which...

[totallyinaband]

It hasn't tried to kill me. Yet. I'm just... being thorough.

Why wouldn't I know which one is me?

[justcautious.livejournal.com]

Cos we don't. I mean, we both THINK it's us, but that don't mean anythin'.
