You Can Fly? I Can Fly! [Connor] « Thread Started on Jun 17, 2008, 2:02pm »
Look at me way up high, Suddenly here am I!
He was standing on the ledge of the balcony, floating gently across it, not knowing nor caring if anyone passed by. He had already given poor Indy a heart attack essentially with his tirades and well, what was to say he wouldn't do it again? Humming from the musical Peter Pan, he felt like him. No, he WAS Peter, wasn't he? Vibrant and steady as the Northern Winds. Soon enough, he jumped off the balcony, heading towards the ground, but caught himself, able to land back on the balcony once more.
Snapping his finger, a lemonade appeared and he began to sip on it. "Now, this...this is the living. I could get used to this place. Poor housekeepers though: No one to find out who owns this place."

Connor straightened his hat once again. For some, crazy, inexplicable reason, it kept falling off. He really should do something. Like tie a bit of string from the brim like an Australian Bushwhacker hat. Maybe then the problem would be solved. He scratched his stubble, wondering if this was the best idea, or whether there was a better one.
He pounded up a staircase, headed towards what he had heard was the balcony. Sounded like something from a posh hotel to him. The poshest one he could think of was London's Ritz. He'd never stayed there - on his wages it was a mere dream - yet he'd seen it. His hazel eyes scanned the balcony for a sign of life, and found one. He zoomed in on it...and froze. Stopped dead.
It was Q. Q from STAR TREK. Was it? It looked like Q in every aspect, but maybe it was just an impersonator or something. He would have to find out. He found himself laughing at his own mind. Was he going mad? This was absolutely ridiculous. He walked towards the Maybe-Q, and stood, hands in pockets. "Um...'scuse me for asking...but...what's your name?" He knew that this was the best approach. If he just went 'are you Q?' the person might think he was mad. Most people did after all.

The lemonade quickly whisked away as Q realized that he was no longer alone in this setting. Standing up, he looked to Connor and grinned as his clothing denoted something similar to his. "My name? He asks for my name? Who does he think he is, the Pope?" The clothing switched suddenly again to fit the style of Bing Crosby and Bob Hope films, then to the outfit he was originally wearing which had been the one similar to what he wore on Risa.
When he had kidnapped crew members. He grinned at that thought before realizing Connor was waiting for an answer. STILL. "Oh. You asked my name, terribly sorry. It's an easy name, rest assured, but I dare not confuse you any longer. It's Q. Plain and simple. Just don't tell me you're here to go after me. Did Jean Luc or Benjamin put you up to it?" He smirked at the thought. Yes, Sisko would, wouldn't he?

Connor just waited, gaping a little as the man changed clothes without even DOING ANYTHING. Like magic or something. He had to sit down to stop himself from doing something stupid. Like falling over. Then there was the name. The name. And, would you believe it, it WAS Q. THE Q. Connors mind just about exploded, but not without waving a white flag at him, and cheerfully stating that he was on his own. damn.
"I...uh...um...yeah..." He stammered. He gripped the table, sure that he would faint if he didn't. This was AWESOME and yet impossible at the same time. He had seen Q's before, of course, at conventions and fancy-dress parties at the university, but this WAS Q. With the voice, and the magic, and the behaviour. "Can, I just say, right, that I am a REALLY big fan." He used his free hand to emphasize just HOW big of a fan he was.

(OOC: HONEST. TO. GOD. His facial expression right now: "OMG")
Ooook. It was VERY clear that none of the dearly beloved captains he chose to irritate didn't bring him here. It was worse: A fan. He paused but then to only realize that it was a fan. Someone liked him? The 'wtf' look his face soon melted and faded away as he nodded his head. "Pleasure to finally meet someone who isn't trying to desperately kill or hit me."
The nosy prat that he was, he had felt the presence inside Connor's mind (only for a brief moment, didn't want to be known really) that there were those who mocked him by...dressing and imitating him?
How insulting. Clearing his throat, he looked to Connor. "Well, are you all right? You seem to be lightheaded or something like that. I assure you, I come to bring you no harm. After all, it's not everyday, er, any day actually, that you meet someone who actually likes you."

OOC: LAWL! BIC: Connor had to shake his head in hopes of rattling his brain back together. If it didn't return soon, then he had no idea what he would do. Probably something mental, like hug Q, which would be a very bad idea indeed. The poor guy would totally freak out. He retrieved the small Ammonite fossil from his pocket and rubbed it lightly, feeling the small ridges under his fingertips. That calmed him down considerably.
"I mean...uh...well, I'm Connor, by the way, Connor Temple. I'm just kind of amazed to meet you. It's awesome. 'Cause well, you're like, a legend." He didn't know how else to phrase it, apart from the obvious, and rather stupid, 'Hey, guess what! You're a TV series that I watch with my mates!'. The regeneration of his mind was not going well, and it seemed that they were missing a few pieces. Probably rolled out of his head when he was having his manic attack.

He would easily know this kid in a matter of hours from anyone else he knew at this manor. His bright and bouncy demeanor, well ... due to his excitement, would not soon be forgotten by the entity, not by a long shot. He couldn't help it, no, not really.
Then, the true bomb shell came. He was a character from a television series? Yeah. RIGHT. Q would easily know if he was or was not. The man knew he wasn't. How stupid and silly of Connor.
Chuckling, he finally spoke. "Oho. All right, Connor, er ... I don't know and really don't wanna know either what you, along with your mates, do but erm ... I am real, not a 'television character.' I am as real as flesh and blood. Seriously."

Connor froze, yet again. The guy had READ HIS MIND. This was cool beyond words. With the mind-reading and the magickness and all that. He found himself grinning. Tom and Duncan would love this....the smile faded. Well...maybe. Tom was dead and Duncan was in prison for nicking a Dodo. Abby didn't even really LIKE Star Trek, so...yeah. He was pretty friendless in that area.
"I can...I can see that. It's just so wicked to meet you. I mean...God...half the people at University would give their right arm to be where I am. Dinosaurs don't even MATCH this!" He mumbled, unable to stop the smile from appearing again. Dinosaurs were one thing...one incredibly cool thing, he should add...but when you'd seen one Gorgonopsid, you'd seen them all really. Space would NEVER get boring.

"Yes, dinosaurs are a thing of the past, aren't they?" he said, snickering, but grinning all the while, then duly noted, "but to give your right arm isn't necessary nor is it for your fellow comrades. I know somewhere in time and space, a Vulcan by the name of Spock would remark that notion would be 'illogical,' thus spurring off a feud between him and Doctor McCoy. Of this, I have no doubts."
Snapping his fingers, the lemonade returned. "Are you thirsty?"
Re: You Can Fly? I Can Fly! [Connor] « Reply #9 on Jun 19, 2008, 2:49pm »
Connor laughed, recalling the arguments of the team on the TV in his head. When Q said that dinosaurs were a thing of the past, though, he couldn't help but grin. This was what his whole job, his whole life had become about. Dinosaurs coming into the real world. Through anomalies. That's what they had named them. And he had come here through an anomaly. That meant there had to be more here.
"Au contraire, Q, sir...I work with dinosaurs." He said with a big smile on his face. He nodded at the question of his thirst. He had missed breakfast, having been out exploring. He just couldn't get this thought out of his, now thankfully repared, mind. He was MEETING THE Q.
