open; does not play well with others
WHO: Vincent Smith and OPEN.
WHEN: Mid-December.
WHERE: Outside the hospital.
WHAT: Vincent sets up a surveillance camera.
NOTES\WARNINGS: Permission post. OOC post. I can't think of any but will update if anything comes up.
first step to setting up a surveillance camera, be yourself and have fun.
[ Rather than explain to anyone what he is doing, Vincent decides to take it upon himself to set a camera up to monitor the entrance of the hospital. Does anyone need to know he's doing this? Are they the boss of him? The answers in his mind are: no.
It also appears that the companion bots don't seem to be particularly bothered with what he's doing, so he takes that as approval.
Vincent does, however, wish he had come up with this idea when it was a little warmer. As it stands, it's snowy - and he's still drowning in knitwear. He's dragged along quite a few items to help him complete his task!
One is a wireless camera. Batteries. Laptop. Electric screwdriver. Mounting posts. And a ladder.
How did he bring all these items? He took a shopping cart, because whatever. Ask someone to help carry it? Please.
Anyway - that is how some find him, figuring out how to mount the camera and to keep it out of the way of weather (which seems pointless to him given Etraya but whatever!!) and standing on a ladder without anyone to hold it.
It's fine. ]
second step is making sure it fucking works.
[ Or he's sitting on the ladder, he is checking over the connection to make sure that it actually is going to transmit to the laptop or not. He occasionally violently shakes the laptop before crawling back up the ladder to try to figure out what is going on.
Does he intend to use the laptop for anything else other than to be where he can monitor the camera? Nope! ]
and now for something else! moving!
[ Guess who has moved?
Well, moved is a broad term - the term is that he told Barnabas that he's going to be his neighbor.
Vincent acquired himself a trolley so that he could start dragging items from point-a A back to his citadel. Rely on the companion bots to feed and worry about these things? Absolutely not! That's accruing a debt with them that could be called upon at any time.
(But Vincent - all items here are free, so-? So what! He's acquiring them and going through the trouble dragging them across the distance back home! He didn't ask any of them to help him so it's without cost, actually. It's actually at a deficit because of how much he hates physical labor.)
But yes --
-- people might see him using a trolley to drag along heavy items back to Stonhyrr that he feels the medieval fortress needs because it needs so much! Due to being minimal! Thankfully, it has a bed, but whatever! Whatever!
Of course, this is going as well as assumed; he's not that physically fit and trying to move items like a fridge or an oven by himself.
Oh, well. ]

[ He scratches his earlobe before he returns to trying to screw in the mounts.
If it were back home, he would know the exact number of everyone that was in his hometown. He would know their backgrounds and dig up any weaknesses he could find in them - financial, personal, emotional. There wouldn't be anything he didn't know about those that were in his space.
However, as it stands, he doesn't care enough to pay attention to how many people are around him or what might be going on with them. But, to put it another way, he's only concerned about the people that he has started an investment with versus anyone else who is an unknown risk and may not be useful to him. ]
This place isn't my home so I try to live and let live.
[ Is the best way of putting it versus the truth of the matter. ]
May I ask why you're worried about that?
no subject
Just curious. There's only automatons besides those of us who were brought here, correct? So a headcount might be useful.

[ Vincent decides to impart that bit of information to him, at least. He considers that a freebie and something that can be considered a small debt to collect later. Will the man view it the same way? Probably not. But so long as Vincent feels like it is there; he can be at ease. ]
It's the people themselves. There are some more ... interesting than others.
