An Unemployed Nerd Enters....

[ Hal Emmerich just lost his job at the FBI. People generally don't like you much if you hack into their central database. Especially the government. Now he's got a bad reputation and no one will talk to him about jobs. He's starting to run out of money for rent and he turned the heat off to save on money to keep his internet. The internet is more important then being warm, after all! ]

[ He goes out for a walk to clear his head and suddenly ends up in a place that he wasn't intending to go. This place is a bit odd, but it sure beats his apartment. ]

Yeah, I'm new. Just showed up a bit ago.

...and I think so? Is your name Hal?

[stares as well, quite confused.]

Yeah, I'm Hal Emmerich. [Wow, a older him!]

How old are you? I'm new too.

[...Takes the brochure
out of his pocket and gives it to the older him.]

I'm an older version of you it seems. I'm 23.

[he take the brochure and looks it over] Ahh, this helps quite a lot! Thank you.

I'm 11! ...Ohhh. [He was all grown up!]

What do you do? Are you an Engineer, too?

[identity profile] h-emmerich.livejournal.com 2011-01-18 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
Sure am. And I got my PhD, so I'm technically Dr. Emmerich. Just like dad, ironically.

...Cool! [Wonders what's ironic about it, though.]

Didn't you want to be an engineer?

Do you do Top Secret projects, like Father does? [His Father says he does, anyway. The alternates might not.]

[identity profile] h-emmerich.livejournal.com 2011-01-18 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
[He laughed] Of course I did. Don't you?

And yeah, I worked on all sorts of top secret projects and I will probably work on more. I worked for the FBI for a while.

Oh, I do, I do...

The FBI! Wow! [Shiny adoring eyes!]

Did you fight crime? Just like a TV series...

[identity profile] h-emmerich.livejournal.com 2011-01-18 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
[Hal grinned at that.]

Well, no. I worked as an engineer developing stuff for agents to use in the field. Nothing too exciting I'm afraid.

...Oooh! What kind of things???

[identity profile] h-emmerich.livejournal.com 2011-01-18 05:40 am (UTC)(link)
Top Secret things. If I told you, I might have to kill you.

[personal profile] hal1 2011-01-18 06:20 am (UTC)(link)
Wooops!

[Hal mimes being shot and falling down. Stands back up, laughing.]

Is it fun, working for the FBI?
