[Suffering severe trauma leads to taking an holiday. Taking an holiday leads to intense boredom. And intense boredom leads to ~~the Dark Side~~ Sam Tyler in a waist apron]

Fumie, we're having pasta alla carbonara tonight.

And, uh, if anyone else is hungry... I have a lot of spare time right now. [muttered] Can't believe the satellite and the internet went out at the same time...

I can do those! I usually make my brother do that but it doesn't look too hard. Ah, so...a lot of people are coming over for dinner? Are we having a party?

No, I think it's just you and Minato. But, uh... [shoves his hands into his pockets] I'm cooking for other people. I'm... pretty bored, actually. So! Lots of dishes to be cleaned.

[frowns] Bored? Hm...well cooking is fine for now but we need to do something for you.

Boredom: curing world hunger since '73. But, any ideas? I'm thinking of asking the Guv to forward the team's paperwork to me.

That could help. What other things keep you interested?

...Uh... [Doing things. For fun. Crap, Sam's kinda at a loss here]

...You don't do things for fun?

Of course I do!

Like what?

...First person shooters.

Ah, video games! You can download some really good ones onto your glasses. Ones like that are fun.

Really? Any suggestions?

I can download some off my brother's glasses. He plays those.

Thanks. ....Don't suppose I can get Halo on these? And Counsterstrike! I always wanted to play Counterstrike.

I can try! I get lots of ones so you're not too bored, okay? And you should ask Gene for some paperwork.

Yeah, well, if he drops by to see me... [soooooooomeone is feeling unloooooooooooooooooooveeeeeeeed]

[frowns and tugs on his sleeve] Gene will probably come by soon!

'course he will. Probably just got attacked by a pile of undone paperwork. Literally, that is; I'm sure it fell off of my desk and knocked him to the floor.

[blinks, then giggles] That would be great if it happened.

[grins] I imagine the paperwork would suffer greatly for its transgression, though.

It'd probably end up in a shredder.

Fortunate for the paperwork, I don't think those've been invented yet.

Really? I figured they've been around a really long time. But I guess Gene wouldn't like them anyway.

I wonder... [grabs his glasses and slips them on, doing a search]

Apparently, they've been around since the early 1900's. ...Not ever letting the Guv touch one.

[snorts] Ah but would he hate it because it's technology or love it because it gets rid of paperwork? The ones I've seen are pretty high-end. They can do all sorts of things.
