Bolton's Office Hours
[Want to chat with Bolton privately? Here is where you do it! Bolton's office hours will be held in conference room B in the library for approximately four hours in the morning several days a week. During that time the blinds will be drawn and that room will be off-limits unless you're there to talk to Bolton, though the other three study rooms will still be available for use.

[He pours himself a cup of coffee and takes the time to cup his hand over the mouth, letting the steam gather before breathing deep and letting out a content sigh. There's a copy of It on the table next to the french press.]
You seem pretty sure someone's gonna take the bait.

Let's say I feel like planning for the worst. And you certainly seem t' think so. This kind of influence doesn't ruin your precious grand experiment or whatever it is?

[He takes a sip of his coffee, watching the Doctor over the rim of his cup.]

Oh, no, I've got it. You're not interested in trying to prove anything, this is just your own personal snuff film.
no subject
Sure, if you want to think that.

[Science works, dammit.]
If it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck it might be about to quote Groucho Marx, but I don't think you've got that many layers. This is about pushin' people better than you into dirtyin' their hands for a cheap thrill.

[Are you trying to guilt him into stopping this whole thing or...]
no subject
[Note the past tense. And much as he'd like to think that Bolton might be reasoned with into calling things off, at this point he'll settle for annoying the one with the proverbial gun to all their heads.]
no subject
You of everyone here has been around long enough to know that there's plenty of reasons someone would give that up, Doc.
[Note the complete lack of guilt. You won't reason with him - or annoy him - that easily.]
no subject
So what's yours, lost someone you care about? Mum and dad didn't hug you enough? Lost at tic-tac-toe one too many times?
no subject
Wouldn't you love to know.
no subject
[And you know what, he will take some coffee. Specifically, that mug Bolton just set down to pose over.]
And speaking of, you never answered my question on day one. Where'd you get the tech to bring everyone here? Call that one professional curiosity.
no subject
Where'd we get it? Same place we got the funding to keep the kitchen stocked and hot food prepared every day.
