Second Study •§• Leonardo •§• Codex come in black? [In person // Accidental Video]

[mr-mona-lisa.livejournal.com]

[For anyone going into the kitchen, they’ll see someone bent over one of the counter tops. Upon closer inspection, it's Leonardo, muttering to himself in Italian. Straightening up a little, it becomes clear that he has completely taken his blackberry apart, all the pieces laid out side by side. He looks like a child on Christmas day, his sky-blue eyes sparkling with curiousity-fuelled ecstasy]

oh mio oh mio, ciò che e...

[Smiling broadly, he puts the piece down and sketches it in a large, worn out looking book. The drawing accompanies others he did previously, of the device at different angles, and anotations of possible workings]


What on Earth are you, amico mio? Hmm~? Certainly this is something worth documenting...now, to put you back together...

[Mere minutes pass before the last piece of the blackberry is clicked into place. Leo goes to compare it with his drawings, when he accidentally hits the power button. When it beeps at him and the screen lights up, his expression only lifts further]


incredibile! fantastico! Quindi non solo si fa a fare rumore, è bagliore così ...
*incredible! Fantastic! So not only do you make noise, you glow as well...


I will have to ask someone just what you do, I think...fascinating, utterly fascinating...

È un cellule telefono. tutti incandescenza. Benvenuto al ventunesimo secolo, testa di cazzo.
*It's a cell phone. Of course it glows. Welcome to the twenty-first century dickhead.

[dhcgskcdf, Heartattack made of glitter]

[Leonardo's mood couldn't possibly elevate any higher, and after a little trial and error, he manages to respond to the younger voice. This was the second person he'd met who could speak Italian~

Ignoring the insult, he replies]

Un telefono cellulare che dici? Non ho mai sentito di una cosa simile! Dimmi, che cosa altro può farlo? *(A cell phone you say? I've never heard of such a thing! Tell me, what else can it do?)

[andsuddenlydynamite]

Che cosa pensate? Potete comunicare con gente con esso, Genio.

*What do you think? You can talk to people with it, genius.

[Note the sarcasm. There's quite a bit of it...]

[Voice]

[mr-mona-lisa.livejournal.com]

[He's noted it, put it in a bagel, and eating it with a glass of wine]

Affascinante..*(Fascinating)

[Change of subject a-hoy~]

Allora, chi parlo? *(So, who am I speaking to?)

Re: [Voice]

[andsuddenlydynamite]

Che cosa importa a voi?

*What does it matter to you?

[Oh Leo your happy seems to be irritating Hayato even moreso then... well... moreso then how the world irritates him on a whole...]

[Voice]

[mr-mona-lisa.livejournal.com]

Realmente non - ma poi di nuovo, se non so il tuo nome, potrei essere costretto a venire con un soprannome poco per voi ~

*It doesn't really - but then again, if I don't know your name, I may be forced to come up with a little nickname for you~

Re: [Voice]

[andsuddenlydynamite]

[He growls irritably, just his fucking day.]

Gokudera. Ora siete felice carogna?

*Gokudera. Are you happy now asshole?

[Voice]

[mr-mona-lisa.livejournal.com]

Si~

[IF VOICES COULD GRIN SMUGLY]

I am Leonardo. It's a pleasure, I'm sure.

Re: [Voice]

[andsuddenlydynamite]

Go fuck yourself.

[Hayato growls. Not pleased in the LEAST about having to give out his name... unless he wanted to be called something retarded, like this fruitcake would come up with...]

[Voice]

[hunted-by-fbi.livejournal.com]

Great, ya figured out that it works. I'll give ya a clap fer that.

[Voice]

[mr-mona-lisa.livejournal.com]

[Putting the sarcasm aside, Leonardo's just happy he knows one of the functions of this wonderful little machine]

Grazie Signore. I don't suppose you could tell me what else it can do? Please, any and every detail

[Voice]

[hunted-by-fbi.livejournal.com]

A'right. Fer starters, it's like...how can I explain this without gettin' too technical...think of bein' at two separate places an' able t' communicate clearly. That's the Blackberry's primary purpose.

[Voice]

[mr-mona-lisa.livejournal.com]

[Taking hurried, scribbled notes in his book]

Si, Si..It's incredible, truly..ah, if only we had such devices back in Firenze-

Mi dispiace, I'm sorry - What is your name, Signore? My curiousity temporarily replaced my manners it seems

[Voice]

[hunted-by-fbi.livejournal.com]

My friends call me John.

[He smiles.]

Yer really outta place here, aren't ya? This Manor's got a method of creatin' madness sometimes so yer fine. Better than prison. At least there ain't a dull moment.

[Voice]

[mr-mona-lisa.livejournal.com]

I am Leonardo Da Vinci - it is a pleasure, Signore

Si, it seems that way - but, it's all so interesting, I can't seem to find the time to be out of my element

[Voice]

[hunted-by-fbi.livejournal.com]

[He could take that as another joke but he doesn't press the issue since he's here too and since both are historical figures in a way, he keeps to the subject.]

Wait until the Author finds a way t' mess with ya. As much as I like t' think that it'll let up soon, somethin' else goes screwy.

[Voice]

[mr-mona-lisa.livejournal.com]

In a way, I am intrigued to see how she will do so.

What has she done in the past?

[Shaun had been heading for the espresso machine. He needed something heavily caffeinated today, especially as he'd been up nearly the entire night before busying himself with studies on 16's clusters that Desmond had found.]

-- Did you just?

[In Person]

[mr-mona-lisa.livejournal.com]

[YAY! A FRIEND! 8D]

[Looking up, Leonardo straightens up and looks at Shaun with quesiton]

Hmm? Did I just do what?

[In Person]

[britbitchsnark.livejournal.com]

[HAI EQUALLY NERDY FRIEND WHO ALSO SPEAKS TECHNOBABBLE!]

Did you just take that apart and then put it back together? And it still works?

[Really the man was as amazing as he had thought.]

[In Person]

[mr-mona-lisa.livejournal.com]

[TECHNOBABBLE? QUES CA SE? fafafafa, fafaaa..]

[Leonardo glances back at the device, and back at Shaun, giving a nod and a smile]

Si - I know how it fits together, but I've yet to see how it actually works. I've been told it works for communication, but surely that cannot be all it does?

[In Person]

[britbitchsnark.livejournal.com]

[TECHNOSPEAK YOU NINNY! YOU DO IT A LOT AROUND EZIO AND CODEXES]

[Shaun is taken a back for a while, still trying to register quite how he managed it. He hadn't been exposed to the apple yet so he must just be that good.]

Uh well it's primary use is communication. You can also take pictures, play games, usually go on the internet - but around here the Author's given us a restricted network. The internet's a much bigger network that it a good source of knowledge - the Templars hate it.

[In Person]

[mr-mona-lisa.livejournal.com]

[Okay, give him a second to get his inhaler..]

Take pictures? Play..oh, mio oh mio...

[Picking the blackberry up, Leonardo pushes it into Shauns hands and moves behind him]

I would be so very, very grateful if you could show me! Please, you show me on that and I'll take notes - I'll owe you a favour in the future, anything you want!

[In Person]

[britbitchsnark.livejournal.com]

[Shaun holds up the device and points it at the nearest flower pot.]

Okay, you press this and then this. Point it at whatever you want to take a picture of and hold the middle button.

[There's a loud click and sure enough on the screen it shows the flower pot.]

See?

[In Person]

[mr-mona-lisa.livejournal.com]

[Pulling his notebook towards him, Leo picks it up and notes down in his illegible scrawl what Shaun was telling him. When it 'clicks', and the picture appears on the blackberry, his eyes widen like a school girl and he gasps in the same way]

Ciò che la-! Come si fa....che sorprendente, assolutamente, positivamente...ma come...*(What the-! how does that....amazing, absolutely, positively...but how...)

[Taking a picture himself, Leo practically squeaks in delight, grinning at Shaun, seemingly oblivious to his lack of enthusiasm]

This is amazing! AMAZING! This technology, it is beyond anything..What else! Please, show me!
