Doctor's Log
August 28, 2004
I found out what Beach Head had been taking notes on from the Star Wars movies. Some of it anyway. Covergirl dropped in today to check on my sanity. Beach Head usually calls her Cinderella and Barbie Doll. But now that he's seen Star Wars, he's begun using Han Solo's nicknames for Princess Leia. Her unfortunate new nicknames are Your Worshipfulness, Your Royal Highnessness, and Your Holiness, all said with a certain amount of sarcasm.
She wasn't happy. I think Courtney was threatening to hunt Duke down.
I also found escape plans today written on several paper napkins. Incidentally, they were also written in black, green, and red marker. I still can't figure out where they're hiding them. I'm thinking about having Mainframe post security cameras.
By the way, Covergirl did get Beach Head back later on. She walked in about an hour later and sprayed him with really strong perfume. Courtney told Beach Head it was a new smell for him. After Gung Ho asked her if she was marking her territory, she threw the bottle at him. (It was a plastic bottle.)
It exploded after it hit him in the head and left a large, red welt on his forehead. Gung Ho got drenched with a nearly full bottle of perfume.
As if this wasn't enough, Spirit, Snake Eyes, and General Hawk also walked in at the exact moment this was going on. They stood in a sort of stunned silence and then began to slowly back out the door. (Beach Head and Gung Ho were screaming bloody murder by this time.) I could hear them howling with laughter down the hallway.
Both of them are gagging from the smell. That whole side of the room now smells strongly of women's perfume. Right now, Beach Head's got a pillow pressed over his nose in a vain attempt to block out the smell.
I suppose I should go check and make sure he hasn't suffocated himself. Maybe I should be nice and open the window.
Author's Note: Thanks for all the reviews so far, I'm glad you like it. (And by the way, since Low Light was requested, he will appear in a future chapter.) :)
