notimpervious: (from human affection)

remember you kiiiiiinda brought this on yourself c:

[Things Brennan misses the meaning of: that sarcastic statement. The smile throws her off. Clearly this means he is actually grateful.]

I understand that feeling. It will be hard to complete my novel without Angela to help me with the filler scenes, but I will manage somehow.

[She is assuming that people here will be like at home and prefer the boring character stuff over the fun science. This is her curse in life, it seems. Alas.]
notimpervious: (such a wide wide chasm)

[personal profile] notimpervious 2017-08-05 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
[She shrugs. Possibly pouts. Where is the fun in having to write out sex scenes and dinner dates or whatever other scenes Angela might suggest.]

I suppose. It will be something to do, in any case. I find I am restless here without work to do.

[What she wouldn't give for, say, chipmunk bones to examine. She's getting desperate here.]
notimpervious: (i need no soft lights to enchant me)

If any of these extremes are like the day that Zack and I arrived, then I would hope we have enough time to react appropriately to a new event when it begins.

[Locking yourself inside your apartment seems like a really good way to avoid mutant wasps. Just saying.]

As invasive as the mass hallucination was, it was not unpleasant until it began to release us.

[Of course, now she is missing her family more than before, but that was going to happen no matter what.]
notimpervious: (i am not afraid)

[Brennan wrinkles her nose for a moment. She is not looking forward to what she will inevitably face.]

Has it? The boy who was my false son seems to harbor no lingering affection for me at all. [She shrugs.] I don't expect I will find many complications in my interactions with others here, but I also have no prior history with them. You've known them longer, so it's likely different for you.
notimpervious: (everyone's got a theory)

[personal profile] notimpervious 2017-08-06 05:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[She shrugs.] He has been hostile towards me from the beginning. In that sense, not much changed at all even during the event.

[If anything, it was worse for her, given she's been taken from her daughter and was given fake children... who were subsequently taken away from her as well.]

Was he at least nice? That could be the beginning of a friendship.
notimpervious: (with a new point of view)

[personal profile] notimpervious 2017-08-07 06:00 pm (UTC)(link)
[Even not knowing why Sweets would think that, she would agree.

Oh, a scientific inquiry! That gets her attention and interest.]
They should not even be able to grow without sunlight -- but they are not like the trees we're familiar with. Perhaps they react differently to the components of air, or the soil and water sources here are... better suited somehow to underground life.

[Or this "magic" of the "gods" -- this access to technology or innate ability that allows them to work withib the laws of physics in ways that humans can't -- somehow allows them to replicate sunlight.]

Or perhaps there is sunlight, filtered in from above ground somehow.

[Now you've done it, Sweets. Now she's distracted by science.]
notimpervious: (wordless challenge)

[personal profile] notimpervious 2017-08-08 12:43 pm (UTC)(link)
With the right technology, it could possible. [She purses her lips.] Hope seems to think I can be convinced to call it "magic" or "power" and leave it at that. As if somehow I'm of average intelligence, or below average, and incapable of understanding.

[She's not salty, though.]
notimpervious: (don't say that it can't be done)

[personal profile] notimpervious 2017-08-09 01:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[EXTREMELY SALTY. She'll show Hope and his alien brethren!!]

If they are operating it, then they know how it works. If they know how it works, then they can explain it. If not to the average person, then to me, or to Zack, whose training in engineering enables him to understand even more easily. Calling it magic is inaccurate and...

[Give her a second, she's trying to find a better word for lazy.]

...lazy.

[Nailed it.]

notimpervious: (i don't call them that)

[personal profile] notimpervious 2017-08-09 10:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[Brennan? Miss the point? N e v e r.]

Yes. [She frowns.] That is why I'm helping Dr. Tenebris with her work. At least she is doing something that could help us obtain some control.

[She does not like feeling trapped like this.
notimpervious: (seeking faint signs from the universe)

[personal profile] notimpervious 2017-08-10 10:26 pm (UTC)(link)
I would not be surprised if the "gods" attempt to stop us somehow.

[It doesn't take a psychologist to understand how people in power tend to operate when they want to stay in power.]
notimpervious: (keywords are hard)

[personal profile] notimpervious 2017-08-12 04:01 pm (UTC)(link)
We should, but I don't know that we would be able to do anything. By our very narure, we provide them with the energy they require, and by their nature, they can make us believe we are what we are not.

[In short, it'a a good inclination in theory but it will probably be a waste.]
notimpervious: (don't say that it can't be done)

[personal profile] notimpervious 2017-08-13 11:31 pm (UTC)(link)
They miss people? You mean, there are people who go unaffected during events? [Interesting.] Does it happen every event? Is it always the same people?
