[Video/Action for Penny & other Building 8 residents]

[Billy is singing. This isn't unusual, per se, but this is definitely Billy, not Dr. Horrible, and he looks pretty happy. He's clearly singing to someone, but all the camera shows is him sitting on top of one of the machines and singing into a bottle of detergent like a microphone.]
 
Well it was certainly that day,
packed the clothes and did the laundry.
I put it off, but they were alive.
When I'd walk by they'd give me five.

So I packed up boxers and socks.
And had a bagel with some lox
But if I'd known she would be there
That girl with chopsticks in her hair.

So do you come here all the time?
Why are your's fluffier than mine?
I think its time to change my pill.
But your soap technique is pretty ill.

[For those who don't know him as Billy, this is made to look like it comes from a different account than Dr. Horrible's, but the connection can be traced by those with skills]

Meteor shower.  I wish I had a better telescope.  Does anyone want to go stargazing with me?  Penny?  Actually, there's something not quite right about them...guess it doesn't really matter.

My friend Penny is starting an organization to make things a little easier for new arrivals, like giving out basic toiletries, coats in the winter.  It's just starting out, so let me or her know if you're willing to help with planning, volunteering, donations, etc.  Penny, does this thing have a name?

Did you get anywhere with the samples I sent you?  I have to admit I'm not making much headway.

[ooc: going to bed in a half hour or so, will tag back tomorrow.  Note that this is the first uncursed entry from Billy.]

[Video]

[Dr. Horrible, goggles pulled down over his eyes, is sitting in front of his computer  with a lab bench behind him.  There are a lot of glass tubes, one filled with a green liquid, beginning to bubble over.  There also appears to be a Tesla coil, three containers of Silly Putty, and...is that a tentacle?]


A lot of you have been asking about Wonderflonium.  I still haven't found any, but after some arduous preliminary research, I've come to believe that it is going to be possible for me to synthesize some of my own.  And you, loyal viewers, will be getting to see some of the first steps of this unprecedented work of scientific ingenuity.  Don't worry if this is the last you hear from me for a long time.  I'll be hard at work and all that. 

[He moves over to give a view of his latest experiment.]

Oh, oops.  [Turns down the bunsen burner under the green stuff.]  With the addition of this catalytic compound, the polymer base will begin to solidify and turn blue--[He pours the green stuff into a beaker with a viscous orange substace]--at which point I can begin the next phase of creation by--[the beaker is suddenly filled with something pink.  And unaccountably sparkly.  And expanding.]--That's not supposed to--

[The beaker bursts, setting off several other small explosions, and blobs of the sparkly stuff bounce off, rather than entirely stick to, the surfaces they hit.  Dr. Horrible dives under the table.  Shortly thereafter, the camera is obscured by goop].

AAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaggggggggggggh!

[Text//Filtered to Friends//Unhackable]

I'll be around, but I'm giving up the outfit, the name, the evil--I mean, evil image that I sometimes project right now.  The situation changed, I'm trying to change with it.

[Filtered to Rosella//Unhackable]


You're going to the swing dance thing, right?  I'll probably be there with my friend...if you see us, can you call me Billy.  Please?  I'll owe you one.  You'll probably be pleased to know it's because I'm turning over a new leaf, I guess.  Seeing what it's like not to be horrible...

[Private//Unhackable]


I can stop this any time.  I totally can.  This is my last post like this.  And not telling her isn't lying if there isn't something to tell her about anymore. 

[ooc: Friends in this case are ones he knows in real life (member of ARTEMIS can assume this if they really want) and includes Carl, Solomon, Rain, and Rosella (oh, and I guess Data.  Um.)...I think that's it at this point.  Basically, Billy is going to stop being Dr. Horrible for a few weeks in June.  Posts and comments will be made by *Billy* and heavily filtered.  He's trying to give up villainy cold-turkey.  He'll still be doing work for AREMIS but the--despite evidence in this video--very promising work on Wonderflonium will grind to a halt because something is just missing.  Eventually this will all come to a head and Dr. Horrible will be back, but I just wanted to give you a heads up that this is not a permanent change by any means.

Oh, also, bed soon, so tagbacks mostly tomorrow.]

I'm not sure I actually want to know, but did anyone find any pictures of me?

Expandcut for many, many pictures )


horrible_phd: (watching)
If there's a blonde princess or maybe just someone who was a princess during the curse a few days ago, I'm very sorry about the whole trying to tie you to the train tracks thing.  I mean, I couldn't really help it, but still, sorry.  Also, I think everything I was trying to say yesterday came out as Latin.  I don't actually speak Latin, but I don't think I was trying to say anything important, so, oh well.  As curses go not bad.  I feel totally normal today, which is nice.

I can't believe it's only like a week until Valentine's Day.  It figures the first time I actually have a girlfriend, I'm stuck here without her.  Of course, when I get home I'll have plenty of time to plan ahead.  I wonder if Penny would want to go to that vegetarian Indian place, or if I should think of something fancier.  That is, if she hasn't broken up with me by then.  Man, I need to get home.

Oh, hey, thinking of Penny reminded me--this place should have a welcome center, maybe near the fountain.  There could be a really be sign and there'd be guides available, and someone would be there in person to help explain things.  And maybe coffee and some food.  I think it would be especially good now, considering people are showing up wet and cold and could use a place to get warm immediately.  I dunno, just a thought.  I'm not as good at organizing these kinds of things as she is.

[ooc: Road Not Taken.  Have a Billy who chose to talk to Penny rather than worry about the van.  They became friends and soon started dating, and Penny found out about the Dr. Horrible thing.  She eventually forgave him but made him promise not to join anything with "evil" in the name.  He's still a scientist, but he gave up being Dr. Horrible to keep Penny out of danger and to devote more time to being with her and helping the Caring Hands Homeless Shelter get enough signatures, something they're still having problems with.  He remembers having met or spoken with everyone here, but probably remembers the content of their interactions as being rather different.]

[Accidental Voice Post]

Don't--

[a long pause and coughing]

Penny! Penny?

Penny, hold on. Oh, no. Oh, no no no no no.  Hold on, I'll...

Penny?  Penny?  Penny.
