VIDEO ♧ 001 ♧ there we were --- thick as thieves.
[ Eames figures this is part of some grand scheme to get back at him. He's never been the kindest chap, so he has no doubts that he's ticked off someone somewhere. He's up against some fine dreamers, the attention of the place -- the authenticity and the details in the world building should make him feel intimidated, but Eames takes this is a gamble. All high stakes with a lot to lose. He doesn't believe the whole situation where they're in a world of Dreams, Death and Living - he figures it's part of the game to lull the mark into a false sense of security by showing him familiar elements.
So Eames will play along until he manages a better picture of what's been painted to him. When the feed turns itself on, Eames looks positively lost. You don't spend so much time pretending to be other people without learning a few tricks yourself, so the act is a solid one. His tone is hesitant. ]
Right. Well. So I guess, the nice - Kedan - wassit? Explained a couple of things with this -- [ he makes a gesture with his hands. ] place.
This is a bit much to take in. So I gotta ask - are they known for their honesty? They tellin' us the whole story with being between death and life and dreaming?
[ a beat. ]
Name's Freddy, by the way. Freddy Simmonds. I guess. I'm new.
[ Eames is gonna push this act as far as he can. ]
(( OOC | if there'd be any reason for your character to pick up on the fact that it's an act - go ahead! c: ))

[She shrugs.]
I'm told that it's quite different where I'm from, compared to everyone else that I've met. I assume your world is quite different as well?
no subject
[ he's trying to figure out the aim here. confessing his secrets to some religious body to try to get him to open up within the dream?? it's not tactics he's seen anywhere before. ]
My world's a lot duller than yours seems, peach.
no subject
That's a shame, but I'm sure even if it's not the same in that way it must be exciting in others. Surely there's something unique about it?

[ he gives a hearty sort of laugh. ]
You seem to have a better done slice of life with your tea times with the higher powers.
no subject
[She shrugs.]
Do you know what you'll do now, now that you're here?
no subject
[ a beat. ]
Haven't thought that far. I'm honestly not a long-term planner.
no subject
[She shrugs.]
The same crime I expect is here as well.
no subject
I'm terribly unaware of those sorts. It's a shame really, the most I've ever taken interest in is possibly cheating my way out of fantasy football. Does this place have a lot of shady buisiness?
no subject
[Bryn pauses a moment, and then shrugs.]
I wouldn't be surprised if there's other sorts of crime but it's not really my area of expertise.
no subject
[ Eames is going to keep an eye, because that sounds like the subconscious they're in is militarised and it's worth noting. ]
I do hope a lovely girl such as yourself doesn't manage to get caught up in all that.

[She gives him a cheeky grin and shrugs.]
I can fight, though from what I understand they're much stronger than normal humans. Can handle a couple weapons as well but I wouldn't call myself an expert by any means.
no subject
[ eames no. ]
Still better than anything I can manage. The most I do is do is go to the gym. I don't think Zumba and Cardio help in a fight in anyway.
no subject
[And now, thinking him somewhat defenseless, bites her lower lip.]
But you probably ought to find someone to teach you a few things, just in case. I could if you wanted, or maybe someone else around here. A lot of the foreigners have some training or another, I think.
no subject
Well, that would certainly help me out if I got stuck in a pinch.
[ he laughs. ]
Not to be forward but you've got a pretty decent skill set from what you've described.
[ it's a way to try to get closer to the projections. ]
no subject
[It's not that she's not skilled, she just doesn't train constantly the way a professional might.]
When you're ready just let me know and we'll meet up in the Wood Sector. Does that sound alright?
no subject
[ okay so maybe he's flirting just a little in his tone. eames is a lad who grew up reading chapters of casino royale hoping to be james bond and winding up following the same footsteps as vesper lynd. he's a liar by trade more than anything and this is an opportunity to get closer to the projections, so he's going to leap at the opportunity. ]
Name a time and a place in the Wood sector?
no subject
Well in that case, how about tomorrow, a couple hours after lunch? There's a small grove here that might be good.
[Have a ping, Eames.]
