Voice post.

[Prefect's voice is surrounded by the soft cooing of like, a MILLION BILLION TRIBBLES. He sounds just about as calm as he has ever sounder in his life.]

Comrades, I honestly have no idea how it is even remotely possible to dislike these creatures. The number of you deriving enjoyment from their torture is frankly a little disturbing to me. They're nice, and they're gentle, and there is literally no possible reason to stomp on them or feed them to your dogs.

[More cooing, and Prefect lets out a strangely happy sigh.]

[EDITED TO ADD]

Also, Comrades, I recommend that we solve the Tribble problem by hoarding them all into a room which we keep free from food, and then allow them to live there forever.

Exactly! We don't even have to do something to sustain them, we need to neglect to do something!

I don't know. People keep talking about eating them.

The only small, furry thing he likes is A MUCH LOVED ORANGE CAT

[bythe_books]

Not... that sort of dirty. I'm talking about diseases here.

Prefect, this is the Barge. How well d'you reckon that'll work when-- ohhh, just putting this out there-- we hit our first flood.

1/2 - WILL HE TRUST YOU?

Oh, well that’s good then. Are they here for any reason? I mean, I only got here yesterday and they were already here.

2/2 APPARENTLY SO.

[buywithme.livejournal.com]

Okay, Comrade.

[Imagine he gives you a room number because I'm too lazy to look it up, and PREFECT IS AN IDIOT.]

[lotoftrouble.livejournal.com]

Marvelous!

[And Loki's knocking on your door now.]

[itsyourtime.livejournal.com]

I'm wondering if there's some way to sterilize the creatures, myself, and allow them to continue to roam around on the Barge.

[buywithme.livejournal.com]

It is. That one wasn't actually so bad.

Oh, excuse me, Sister. Sam is my Warden. We have been together for some time.

Eating them? God. That's horrible!

O'Brien's used to it by now :(

[equalsfive.livejournal.com]

Have you not? Neither have the rest of the unorthodox population of this boat. You shall all come to realise that the only true and strong form of government is that of the Party, in time.

You all live in underdeveloped political systems, comrade, that is the only explanation. You will soon enough come to see how reality should be.

Either that or all your memories will be corrected, soon enough.

TRIBBLES WARM A VAMPIRE HEEEART

[vamp-verona.livejournal.com]

I wish to keep several. They are wonderful creatures.

Named... Marmaduke? I forget :(

[buywithme.livejournal.com]

How could they possibly have diseases? They're less than a week old!

...

Actually, that's a good point.

SAM HEADDESKS. And may stop by later to make sure you're not dead

[bythe_books]

IVANHOE.

[bythe_books]

I don't know, but I'd really rather not test it.

Yeah. That's why, cute as they are, they have to go.

[buywithme.livejournal.com]

We could... rescue some.

[buywithme.livejournal.com]

[And lo, after the unlatching of many locks, Prefects door opens a crack, before he steps back to let you in. While the sound of cooing is still obviously filling the room, Prefect has apparently hidden all of his Tribbles in preparation for Loki's visit.]

PRESENTS DON'T KILL PEOPLE!

Prefect and Harv are going to keep a (mod approved) stash of tribbles in Harveys room. SORRY SAM.

[buywithme.livejournal.com]

I suppose that makes sense, Comrade.

[lotoftrouble.livejournal.com]

[Loki practically shoves a small box (containing a lovely Tribble-fur scarf) and a plate of some unidentifiable meatloaf (it's Tribble) in Prefect's face. Someone obviously got bored.]

"Here you go!"

Private

[unbiasedchance.livejournal.com]

I like that idea. I've got some space in my room that I'm not using.

[buywithme.livejournal.com]

Comrade, how can your party correct my memories from the past? That doesn't make sense.

I think that your Party slowly evolved into the Factory, continuing towards perfection until the end of time.

Private to Loki

[tadwizard.livejournal.com]

Seconded!

MUHAHAHA.

[lotoftrouble.livejournal.com]

 

[buywithme.livejournal.com]

[Prefect casts his critical salesman eye across the offerings, before giving them back to Loki.]

No thank you, Comrade, I don't think there's a market for these kinds of things right now.

Private to Tony

[lotoftrouble.livejournal.com]

There's more in the fridge if you want it. It's in the blue tupperware container.

I still cannot see why you like Tribble.
