While Ryo was at work today and Bikky was at Carol's, I went wandering around the city for a little while. I admit, I still don't completely know the layout of Manhattan, but I really enjoyed it.

I went to the Museum of Modern Art for the first time -- I didn't know it had so much famous art there! It had Starry Night and Persistence of Memory and the the Campbell soup cans.

All in all, it was very exciting!

((I am such an art nerd. *sob*))

What sort of singer? You quit?

...How so, madam?

[morethanseeing.livejournal.com]

I was an opera singer. I stopped after I left Sanitation Island.

I had a contract with my employer: he would give me my eyes if I worked for him, but if I ever left, he would take my eyes out again. And I couldn't stay there and work for him any longer -- he was killing people. So I left and came here instead.

Sanitation Island? I'm not familiar with it.

....[Woah. Woah, what.] Your eyes?

[morethanseeing.livejournal.com]

It's located near Alcatraz; it's somewhere off the coast near San Fransisco.

My eyes. I was born blind; when I met Rotti, my employer, he told me he would give me working eyes so long as I worked for him.

[God, he really needs to pay more attention to reality. He can't remember the last time he was in the states.]Oh, right, thanks.

You are not from my earth, right' I don't think we can cure blindness that way. And that sort of contract is not legal here.

[It only exists in Repo! world, so he shouldn't feel too bad.] You're welcome.

No, I don't think I am. My world was far into the future, in the year 2052...it was very different than it is here.

[He still think he's missing something :| It's Arthur, he will get obsessed over it now.]

That's far quite a few decades from my time. Sounds like a hard future.

[morethanseeing.livejournal.com]

It is. There was an epidemic, and many people died.

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

And now it's over for sure?

[morethanseeing.livejournal.com]

Mostly. It's not completely over, but GeneCo discovered a way to counter it.

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

GeneCo?

[morethanseeing.livejournal.com]

GeneCo is the company I worked for. They manufacture artificial replacement organs, like my eyes.

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

Sounds like a not-so-legal company. I'm surprised that the government didn't do anything about it.

[morethanseeing.livejournal.com]

The government is a lot weaker in my time. They made all sorts of leeway for GeneCo to do whatever it wished.

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

Looks like a lot of people from the future here have problematic governments.
