smart_houseSARAH's door opens where it usually does, thrown wide like usual, lights on but dimmed.
Like usual.
There's not much variation, when you have a purpose in existence as...structured, as SARAH does.

Date: 2008-08-26 02:17 pm (UTC)"I expect we'll be here for a little while before heading off again. Joris - he's one of the folks I'm traveling with now - I think he needs a bit of time to adjust."
He doesn't mention the other part - which is that he has a suspicion that this time around, when he leaves he might not be back. Not with Joris' gadgets to get him Home.

Date: 2008-09-03 02:30 am (UTC)Jamie shrugs. "You never know what's going to pop up. It's been a nasty set of world, but it's got to get better eventually."

Date: 2008-09-03 02:43 am (UTC)"It implies you get to stop."
Eventually.

Date: 2008-09-03 02:49 am (UTC)Jamie tries hard to keep his voice light and matter-of-fact.
(There are two words in Jamie's vocabulary that are always capitalized. Home is one of them. Them is the other.)
no subject
Date: 2008-09-03 02:51 am (UTC)Also matter-of-fact and, well...mechanical.
"So you should go."
no subject
Date: 2008-09-03 02:56 am (UTC)His gaze drops down, and then off to the side; he'd be evading SARAH's eyes, if she had them. Since she doesn't that makes it trickier. "SARAH, I'm fond of Milliways as anything, you know that. But for Them it doesn't count. I don't get to stop here. The rules are that Home is where you start out from. You don't get to pick one along the way."
no subject
Date: 2008-09-03 03:04 am (UTC)"You will leave me messages when you can?"
It seems to be the best SARAH could hope for.
no subject
Date: 2008-09-03 03:09 am (UTC)"Of course," he says, and grins, quick and easy.
"I'll save up funny stories just for you. Like your own personal travel guide, if you like."
no subject
Date: 2008-09-03 12:21 pm (UTC)Primary functions require the least amount of effort.
"Do you need anything?"
no subject
Date: 2008-09-17 12:57 am (UTC)Jamie is a low-maintenance sort of fellow.
He stops, and then adds, rather shiftily, "But I wouldn't say no if you were to put on that telly-thing."
SOAP OPERAS FTW!

Date: 2008-09-17 12:58 am (UTC)A drawer slides out from the wall to reveal a remote control. "You can pick."
no subject
Date: 2008-09-17 01:08 am (UTC)"I just use the arrows? Or the numbers?"

Date: 2008-09-17 01:14 am (UTC)Onscreen, someone chops off an octopus' leg, grins maniacally, and says, "Now we roll it in the rosemary-herb breadcrumb mixture -"
Jamie blinks.

Date: 2008-09-17 01:20 am (UTC)Jamie flips the channel, and a man juts his chin out and says, "We'll see him behind bars."
On the next channel, a different man is doing the same thing.
no subject
Date: 2008-09-17 01:22 am (UTC)"Oh Jethro -- how...delicious -- "
The channel changes before Jamie touches a button.
"Anything inappropriate."

Date: 2008-09-17 01:31 am (UTC)"If it's my mind you're worried about, it's not all that easy to impress. Impression."

Date: 2008-09-17 01:39 am (UTC)SARAH lets Jamie play with the television channels for as long as he wants. SARAH has no place else to be.
