[The video feed opens up to panning between two rooms in Baldr house - 201 and 203 specifically.  They're refurnished to fit his preference, aka pretty classy, rich guy stuff, as he would put it himself.  Don't ask how he got it.  Just.  Don't.]

Hey, so I'm cleaning up these rooms, trying to make 'em into one big one for myself.  Anyone wanna help me tear down this wall?  Uh, someone who can make keys would be pretty good too.  Have to pick the lock every time I want to get in.  It's not like anybody's using them, so it's fine if I do, right?

Maybe I should be advertising my sweet bachelor pad for the lonely women of Asgard, heheh. [He grins. It's only half-joking...] Haven't had a dry spell since I was about fifteen, geez...

Anyway, hey, Ange, you get bored of staying with those freaks in your house, come hang out with your old man!  Nobody ever visits me, it's not like I'm in a home.

You do it to annoy him, don'tcha.

[gunsgoldgirls]

You got it. Took that long to figure out?

video;

[deadcenter]

Heh, not really- I just wanted to ask some stuff first.

video;

[gunsgoldgirls]

Oh? Find out what you wanted to?

video;

[deadcenter]

Something like that.

video;

[gunsgoldgirls]

Yeah? And what's that?

video;

[deadcenter]

That you're a lonely guy that just wants to tease his kids.

They've grown up you know, you gonna cling to 'em forever?

video;

[gunsgoldgirls]

I'm not some pathetic old man! I just don't have anybody else here, what else am I supposed to do?

video;

[deadcenter]

I dunno, branch out and talk to more people? Shit, it's not a big deal.

video;

[gunsgoldgirls]

You can't blame me for wanting to see my kids, Ange's damn cute and that stupid brat just up and left before, gotta rekindle the relationship, you know?

[deadcenter]

[ange? she a'ight.]

Maybe you should stop being so shameless and they'll visit you more often.

video;

[gunsgoldgirls]

What d'you mean 'shameless'? I'm not shameless!

video;

[deadcenter]

Hah! You definitely are!

video;

[gunsgoldgirls]

How'm I shameless, dammit! You've got it all wrong!

video;

[deadcenter]

For some reason I just can't honestly believe what you're saying most of the time.

video;

[gunsgoldgirls]

Why shouldn't you believe it?

video;

[deadcenter]

You got that shady attitude about ya. You would probably fit right in at Deadman Wonderland.

video;

[gunsgoldgirls]

Huh? What's shady!

[Certainly nothing to do with his being shady businessman incarnate.]

Ah, wait, what's Deadman Wonderland?

video;

[deadcenter]

[so shady....]

Hah? The prison I was at.

video;

[gunsgoldgirls]

...Alright, hold up a sec. You're hanging out with my daughter. And you've been to prison.

video;

[deadcenter]

Yeah, so? I was in there for seven years. [like it's no big deal or whatever that he's a murderer too.]

video;

[gunsgoldgirls]

Shit, the hell'd you do to get locked up for that long?!

video;

[deadcenter]

Don't know if I should tell you pops, you might just ban me from seein' your daughter at all.

[he's just messing with him, really.]

video;

[gunsgoldgirls]

Then I'm gonna ban you from seeing her at all just for saying that! If you can't tell me what it is, it's definitely bad enough that you shouldn't be anywhere near my kid!

video;

[deadcenter]

Oh yeah it's bad, you probably wouldn't be able to handle it.

[he was tossed in jail under false charges....he's just playing it up.]

And you can't tell me what to do, you ain't my father.
