When: Midday
Where: library
Rating: pending

Hadrian yawned. So far, the tall, but scrawny Aussie had not gotten himself into trouble at all. he was pretty meek, and settled to taking insults instead. He yawned again, bit sleepy, but knowing midday was no good time to sleep. Not in a prison. e reached up, rubbing his scruffy face, realicing he needed a shave soon. He sighed again, looking down into the book.

Meea pushes the library door open, looking for the tiny man that spends his time there. Not finding him, he frowns and wanders through the library some more. "Hey." He smiles at Hadrian once close enough.

Hadrian looked up at the other, brown eyes warm. "Oh! Hay Mate." he smiled. " 'ow you doing?" he did not know the other, but Hadrian was always polite.

Woah! Way friendly. Meea slumps down in a nearby chair with a soft chuckle. "I am... great. My name is Meea." He reaches out a hand to the other man.

hadrian took it, with a firm, but very bony hand. he shook it with a big smile. "I'm Hadrian. Nice to meet you, Mate."

Meea pulls his hand back with raised brows. "Same. Where you from, hm?"

He laughed. "Australia, if you could not hear it on the accent." he smiled brightly still in the half scruffy face. "You?"

"Manhattan, born and raised." Meea tilts his head, looking the man over. "Little far from home, yeah? What are you doing here?"

"I has been living here on and off a few years, and some in Egypt. haven't been in Australia since I was a kid.""

Meea nods, ahh-ing with understanding. "Your accent is still really thick. That's cool." He looks up at the ceiling and sighs. "They should let us paint the sky up there."

He looked up. "Oh, I don't really miss it. I spent most of my time nose into ancient Egyptian tombs any ways,"

Meea pouts a little, wanting to see sky again. "Archeology, hm? That's kinda cool. Find anything interesting?"

"Kings and treasures." he smirked. "Most of it who got in my hands. Well, not the kings, but the treasures."

Meea chortles out a little laugh. "That why you're in here?"

"That and a bomb that exploded amongst 27 of my workers. They blamed it on me, and since I lived long enough in America to be a citizen, they shipped me there."

Meea lowers his chin to look over at the aussie. "Did you do it? The bomb, I mean."

he shook his head. "Those guys where my friends. Besides, Im no killer. Thief, heck yeah. but killer? no." he sighed. "You, what about you mate, what ya in for."

"Me? I got some mail." He smirks, folding his hands behind his head as he continues. They always ask anyway. "Got a bomb in the mail. So now I'm a terrorist."

"You do it?" he blinked.

Meea blinks back at the other inmate. "I did a lot of things. Didn't get caught with any of that. The bomb was a setup. Sucks to be me, I couldn't prove otherwise."

"Ooh.. so.. what did you do, mate?"

Meea leans forward with a laugh. "I like computers. But like I said. Haven't gotten caught with any of that." He leans back again and winks. "So I ain't gonna indulge you with that story."

"Oh, alright. Im really bad with computers other then those dealig with carbon dating and such. "He smirked.

Meea tilts his head. "That's too bad. Computers can really help with cataloging and seeing what could have been. Especially with the kings you found. Technology can take the scans and, by using bone structure, suggest what they looked like."

"Yeah I know, but sent the kings to the museums. let them handle that, even thought I loved doing it myself."

Meea tilts his head. "Wouldn't you be more valuable as an archeologist if you could do those things? You know, being able to do multiple things?"

"I dunno, I stole a few billions in treasures over the years."

Meea sits up a little, interest perked. "What kind of treasures?"

"Egyptian art, statues, relics, you name it. Sold it to american collectors. have some of it hidden:"

Meea bobs his head with a smiling nod. "Awesome. When do you get out?"

Sono almost burst into the library and made a b-line for Meea. He was supposed to be working here today but he'd dodged out to play computer games instead. The blonde rushed over to Meea and jumped to sit on the table. "Meea! I officially challenge you!!"

Meea leans back in his chair, holding up both hands in defense. "I ain't a fighter, dude. What's your deal?"

Across the library, a giant man frowns at them. "SHHH!"

Sono giggles and shakes his head. "Nooo, I challenge you on online Mortal Combat. You know it, right??" His voice was still quite loud.

Meea glances over at the archeologist who has seemed to fall asleep, despite Sono's loudness. "Yeah I know it." He grins, standing up to jab a finger into Sono's shoulder. "I am gonna tear you up."

The giant man shushes at them again.

The little blonde almost cackles. "Yeah. Sure you are." He gives Meea the jab back and grins. "Let's make this interesting. A little wager?"

Meea narrows his eyes while holding that grin. "Maybe. What're the stakes?"

A giant hand grabs the boys by the back of their necks while the giant face of that giant man scowls at them. "I wager both your asses in the infirmary if you don't shut up." He bonks their heads together enough to leave a red mark for a few hours then walks away.

"Dumbass! I work here! I could have your ass thrown out!!" Sono was nothing but a fool as he spoke to the man. He turns to look at Meea. "You beat me, I'll do whatever you want me to. I beat you... well, you'll find out."

"Dude. Don't cause problems with anybody, okay?" Meea rubs his forehead as he lowers his voice. "I think I want a little clarity. 'Finding out' isn't really my thing." He chuckles.

Sono smiles and folds his arms. "Just get me some candy or something. I don't mind." He chuckles, knowing it sounded far less menacing than he'd made his half of the bet sound originally.

Meea laughs again. "Candy vs. anything I want? That's a little steep. Do you have computer time?"

"I do indeed. And your 'anything you want' won't come true anyway." He stands and gestures for Meea to follow.

Meea folds his arms over his chest as he follows Sono to the computer lab. "What makes you think I'm gonna lose?"

"I'm feeling lucky today. Besides, I'm better than you. I can tell." He laughs and shakes his head. "I am so going to eat those words if you win."

Meea watches Sono sign in with the guard on computer duty. "Oh, you'll be eating them. Definitely eating them." He laughs and heads over to a computer to turn it on. "So. We play till your two hours are up and whoever has the most wins?"

(OOC - What the room looks like, so you know. It's fairly small with 3 computers in it. One for the guard on the back wall and then 2 for inmates on either wall to the side of him. The guard has 2 additional screens to either side of his own so that he can watch where the inmates are going. It's VERY strictly monitored because there's only certain things they can do and MANY they can't do.)

"Sure. Sounds good to me. You ready to get your ass handed to you?" He sits and loads the online game as they talk.

Meea laughs as he pulls another chair up to sit beside Sono. "Soon as you get done kissing it."

Sono laughs and shakes his head. "I wouldn't kiss your ass if you begged me." He shifts slightly to allow room for Meea as the game begins. "You are SO going down!"

Meea grins as he selects his player. "You might have to. Anything I want, remember? Gonna back out now?"

Sono selects his own player, laughing as he does. "You're a bastard, y'know?" He smirks then. "And I didn't think you'd want me kissing your ass. I'm a little crazy, if you didn't notice. Might bite a chunk out." He laughs as they begin.
