▲Yami Bakura in Yu-Gi-Oh! Darkside of Dimensions▼
@zombie-hip-hop: Well, I guess we have to see this movie now.
Oh no…
OH YEAHHHH
…why does he look like he’s 12 tho?
I didn’t know this was a thing, how come???
why is bakura 12
I don’t do munday very often, but today seemed like a good day
I started back at course today. And yes, hello I am actually Barry IRL. (I’m like 1000% sure I’m just projecting all of myself onto barry by this point whoops)
Also yes, I do have gray hair and an undercut bc it’s still 2014 in my head apparently.

It was good to know that he would actually be treated as a scientist down here and not an a pack mule. So far, this job seemed like a dream come true. An awesome colleague, having the best resources money can buy at his disposal, a huge office, AND it all came with benefits and a good pay? There had to be a catch.
“A Masters is still quite an accomplishment. Don’t sell yourself short because you can still get very far with a Masters.”, he replied to Barry. “I’ve noticed that a lot of people here have computer science degrees. I have taken a computer science course as well as have basic engineering skills, but hopefully that won’t hinder my progress down here.”
He entered the office right after Barry. His heart about dropped when he saw his own work station right next to his partner’s. A brand new iMac that probably cost thousands, a comfortable leather computer chair, his own desk, his own space. His jaw dropped when he saw what was hanging on the wall behind his desk. His own lab coat with his name sewn on the front.
However, there was still one thing that was bothering him. Hopefully Barry could finally tell him the biggest question he had since he was assigned down here. “Hey, Barry.”, he said as he slipped on his lab coat. “You mentioned earlier that we invent things for ‘agents’. I noticed that ever since I came in contact with the ICA, not once do they ever mention what they do as a company, nor could I find out more about them with a Google search. All I know is that ICA stands for ‘International Contract Agency’ and that I often see ‘merces letifer’ in their company logo. What is it we actually do here?”
“Aren’t you just the flatterer,” Barry joked, going through a few papers left on his desk by the head of department, “Thanks, though. Nice to know there’s someone here who thinks my masters are half-way decent. God forbid you mention anything less than a Ph.D around here,“
Seeing a few department issue safety notes and protocols Warren had no doubt heard a hundred times by now, he rolled his eyes and handed them over to the younger man with a knowing smirk, “And don’t even worry about specific courses. You’re right, a lot of our colleagues have computer and engineers degrees, but you’re unique here with your qualifications. Honestly, by the end of the week if you’re not bogged down with other people asking you to solve physics-y shit they can’t be bothered to google it’ll be a miracle.”
When he heard Warren admit he didn’t know what they did at the ICA, he looked up sharply, an extremely concerned expression on his face, “You mean they hired you without telling you what was going on? That’s... troubling, to say the least. And probably unethical.”
He sat down on his chair and wondered briefly how to go about telling the young man what went on. It wasn’t a world a lot of people knew about, or one that many people found palatable. Admittingly, he didn’t know how he himself slept at night sometimes, knowing how people were using his inventions.
For the first time all morning, Barry was deadly serious.
“You see... The International Contract Agency is technically a criminal organization that specializes in... Well...” he took a deep breath before continuing, “Assassination. Also mercenary work and sensitive intelligence among other things, but mostly high profile assassinations.”
Quincey’s got the best meow. (He’s not feeling well. But Q is a trooper!)

I feel like this is definitely an argument Warren and Barry have had in R&D on a slow day. @weird---science @43versionsbetter
man, that’s one disgruntled ferret

Katia laughed a little. “Well I wish you luck with that. It sounds like alien technology so you might not be able to get close. But you can try. We might get some neat new weapons.”
“Well, I got Warren helping me out in R&D now, so with our combined intellect we should be able to make you some cool shit to take with you places. Any idea what your next assignment’s going to be at this point?”
barrythehacker:
Barry noticed the elevators opening from a distance and saw, who he assumed was Warren, step out. He couldn’t help but smile the awe on his face as he took in R&D for the first time, so similarly to the way he himself acted his first day.
Barry almost had to double-take when the young man came up to him and called him sir.
“Woah, I’ve never been called that! I think I’m gonna need to get them to hire more graduates,” he then started to grin, “I’m Mr. Hector, but honestly call me Barry. Only person that ever called me mister here was Reggie down in accounting when he was pissed at me for forgetting to open overseas accounts,”
He took his cane in his left hand and thrust out the other for the young man to shake.
“You’re Dr. Warren Graham, right? Nice to finally meet you. I’m sure we’re gonna have a ton of fun down here.”
Warren smiled, reaching out to shake his hand. “I am. I’m apparently your new assistant? At least that was what I was told.” It looked like Warren had nothing to worry about. First day and he knew he was already going to get along fine with his college. From the looks of it, he didn’t look too much older than he was. He couldn’t wait to get to work with Barry.
“I almost keep forgetting that I am considered a “Dr.” now. I haven’t had that title for very long and I’m still not used to it. Since we are already going by first names, you can just call me Warren.”, he said as he walked along side Barry, careful to not walk ahead of him.
“Assistant, lackey, minion, whatever works,” Barry limped slightly beside Warren, hoping in probable vain that the younger man wouldn’t notice. As comfortable with his illness as he was getting, he still felt a little humiliated at times, and limited in his body. He forced himself to focus on Warren and the task at hand, however, “I won’t limit you with that title, though. You don’t need to get my coffee or collect my drycleaning. We’re intellectuals here, we research other country’s tech and invent cool shit to send off with the agents. It’s a sweet gig.”
Barry had to laugh, however, “I’ll be honest. You outrank me here,” He paused outside his office, swiping his keycard for entrance to the glass and chrome room, “Never got a Ph.D. Yet, at least. Masters in engineering and computer science, but no doctorate. Seems a little cruel for your first job after college to be working with an asshole like me,”
My family: -knows I can't stand for more than 10 minutes at a time without severe pain-
Also my family: Hey can you do these 1000 tasks that make you stand for 2+ hours at a time? If you say no we'll call you a selfish bitch

“Alright. I mean I don’t have to be up for anything important for another few days. Exactly how long are we to expect this marathon to last?”
“Twenty-six and a half hours.” he said, matter-of-fact, “So it would be an extended sleepover. You can cuddle Asher,”
“That’s…a whole day. More, even. Why do you need a whole day for a TV show?” Was she missing something about the quality or something?
Of course… “Asher? Can’t believe I almost forgot him! How’s he doing? Will he appreciate the fact that I probably smell like my two cats?”
“There’s plenty of episodes. We’ll be very tired for work... Though I suppose I could use some of Peridot’s inventions for inspiration, so it could be considered homework... I might have to take notes...”

Warren couldn’t help but feel anxious the further down the elevator went. He wondered what Mr. Hector would be like. Warren pictured a much older, no non-sense man who has dedicated his life to science. He hoped that he wouldn’t expect much out of a young man who just got the title of “Dr.” and never worked any other job in his life.
When he finally reached the R&D department, Warren was completely blown away. Behind the glass wall, hundreds of scientists were busy at work on who knows what. This was a dream come true. They were not kidding when they told him the ICA R&D department had the best equipment “money can buy”.
As much as he wanted to stick around and explore the labs himself, he needed to go meet up with Barry first. He made his way down the hall, hoping to find the offices. Up ahead, he noticed a young, red-haired man with a cane. Glad to know not all the scientists around here were old men.
“Hello, sir.”, he called out to him as he approached. “You wouldn’t happen to know where Mr. Hector’s office is would you?”
Barry noticed the elevators opening from a distance and saw, who he assumed was Warren, step out. He couldn’t help but smile the awe on his face as he took in R&D for the first time, so similarly to the way he himself acted his first day.
Barry almost had to double-take when the young man came up to him and called him sir.
