024 - 4th wall

[tapestodiane]

[AUDIO - and this isn't Cooper speaking. It's a strange, stilted voice you don't recognise.]

You are heere an thereis no place to g o ... BUT HOME!!

[After that, have some laughter. Again, not Cooper.]

[ACTION ANYWHERE: A lot of you know Cooper, but none of you know exactly how bizarre his life actually is. If you run into him today - anywhere, because any one step in a 4th wall is a treacherous one - you might find him accompanied by a Little Man, clad entirely in red, with secretive eyes. He carries a ring. Coop looks ... troubled.]

[You might find yourself in a Red Room, actually. With the Little Man, the Ring, and perhaps other things. Cooper may or may not be there.]

[Or that might not happen at all. In which case just feel free to bother Coop with having your true form/powers back/your very presence. Nevermind the Little Man, he has no business with you.]

(ooc: might do some tagging with reddrapes! the Red Room is basically a place that screws with your mind, so if you want me to mess with your characters just let me know. COME AT ME BROS)

There is a place to go! Up our arses.

<sub>[KRSH! ... that is the sound of Cooper's brain breaking a little.]

[He can handle Little Men from Other Places, talking logs, giants and blue men outside his window. Those are all things that however bizarre, he's come to accept.]

[Criminals are of course a category in themselves, but he likes to think he's grown pretty adept at handling those at well.]


[This? This is like someone took the worst behaviour in the most frustrating of teenagers, put it into a little ORANGE man, and that is a little more than what he'd liked to see. Thank you very much.]

[He hesitates a second, switches back to audio, and then asks the obvious question a little harshly.]</sub>

Who are you?

We're Oompa Loompas. What else would we be?

We got Benny,

We got Oscar.

Then we got the Pryce brothers.

And I'm Bob.

Now our turn to ask: What's with the 'orror voice, Mr. Psycho? We seen some shit in our time, but this one's new.

<sub>[Okay, video is back on. The Oompa Loompas ... well, he knows that story. Not too well, but well enough to understand. (And just like that, his brain is fixing itself.)]

[He still looks wary, though, and frowns slightly as he speaks. Not quite sure what this Bob is referring to ... clearly, he wasn't aware of that recording being sent out.]</sub>

The "horror voice"?

Yeah it's all... Boys!

<sub>[Oh, god.]

[He stays quiet for a moment, and then says, a little ... dazed?]</sub>

That wasn't me.

Then 'oo was it?

_{[Hm. He takes a moment - doesn't really want to let them know, because he has a bad feeling about them.]}

A little red man. From my dreams.

_{[Does it sound a little crazy? Sure. But it's a kind of test, too.]}

Little red man? We know all about little people, surpisin'ly 'nough.



"'Aven't 'eard ova red one, though."

[tapestodiane]

Are all the little people like you?

_{[Back in FBI mode when he asks. To the point and with a businesslike tone of voice.]}
