Mild-mannered tv production assistant at WKGB, Virgil O'Valeron, held the door to the elevator as he heard someone call out for it to wait.

	Max had just finished his research and called out to the guy in the elevator to hold it. Max jogged over quick, breathing a little heavier than he'd like, and got in. "Thanks," he aid, not seeing him until he turned to face the guy..and then he despaired. "You!? What the heck are you doing here!? (Reply to this)(Thread)

	'Virgil' blinks in surprise as he leets the door shot, pressing the button for his floor. "I'm sorry.... have we met?" Surely, even with his impressive intellect, there was no way that Maximillian could have seen through his cunning disguise. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Don't insult my intelligence, pal. Changing your hair, the glasses, the suit, it ain't working. You're that Varon guy from Will and Avia's party," Max stated. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Varon gasps, pushing up his glasses. "Keep your voice down! This is my mild-mannered secret identity I have adopted in order to learn more about your planet! Don't blow my cover!" He speaks in an excited whisper. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"The scientific resources of Tynol have allowed for careful study of your planet. This disguise is more than sufficient for my purposes. Please do not ruin this for me, Maximillian. Are we not allies int he crusade against evil?" He looks at him pleadingly. "What floor are you going to?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"...," Max sighs. "Fine, but someone's going to give you a rude awakening, I guarantee it." "First floor." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Varon presses the button. A moment or three later, there is a screeching sound, followed by a jolt of the elevator, and it comes to halt. "...uh-oh." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Okay, first off, I'm not mad. Second, I retain information by reading it, and I've never read an elevator manual," Max informed. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hm. I see. Well then, we should make ourselves comfortable. I'm sure your native technicians will be along in a short while to rescue us." He flips the emergency switch, then sits down. "Come, converse with me. Tell me about yourself." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Oh dear God... "I'm sure I can figure something out." Max says, tempted to look at it himself. No way in hell he was being stuck in an elevator with this guy. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Uh... hello?" A voice comes through the overhead speaker. "Sorry about this, folks, but the maintenance crew already left for the day, and union rules won't let us call them back until morning. We tried getting in touch with the fire department, but they're short-handed right now, so this falls under 'non-emergency'. Looks like it's going to be a while."

Varon shrugs.

"So... have you been enjoying any motion pictures, or the victory of any sports team, lately?"

	No, no, no! ""Don't go! Look..can you like throws us an elevator manual or something? I swear I can figure this out!" Max knew it was a desperate request, but..the alternative.... (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Sorry... we don't have anyone that can legally enter the elevator shaft. We'll try to get you some water if you're stuck in there for more than a couple hours. And maybe a bucket." Varon sighs. "We'll be fine. Thank you for letting us know right away. Maximillian, please, calm down. You're just going to upset the man." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Max slowly turns to Varon, straining to keep a calm face. "Upset..him!?" He manages to keep his voice down, though the annoyance is conveyed loud and clear. He mutters darkly before picking a corner and sitting down. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yes. He's just trying to do his job and reassure us. It's not his fault the elevator broke." He scoots over to sit near Max, waiting quietly for a few minutes before he taps him gently on the shoulder. If Max turns around, he'll see that Varon is offering him a bottle of water and a granola bar from his bag. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Max had been concentrating on silence, on of his frequent migraines was pounding in his head. When he was tapped he almost reacted angrily, but noted the offered items.

"I'm not hungry, but I could the water." Max accepts it gratefully and pulls out a pill bottle. He pops a pill in his mouth and uses the water to swallow it done. "Thanks," he says, handing it back.

	"I am..." He clears his throat, and corrects himself to his 'civilian' manner of speaking. "I kind of prefer tv dramas and social documentaries. Like that one with the scary lady and the handicapped kids and all the singing. I've read some fantasy though." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
