Q&A: Dmitry

Thank you for participating in and reading the interview! This was the last PAFL Q&A of the current cycle. The interviews will return after the next episode comes out. See you then:)

TRANSCRIPT

Zlata asks: What do you feel about Dr. Temnova? Did you miss her?

Dima: Miss her? Why should I? I think- no, I know she’s a real professional. Much smarter than those cretins running the centre. Not that it’s a high bar to clear.

Though, sometimes I wonder if, um… Nevermind.

I can’t say much beyond that. Our relationship was purely clinical.

Gabri Katto asks: Have you kissed Anya?

Dima: I… No! I-is that necessary?..

[Cutaway to Anya and Dima watching a movie on the laptop.

Anya: EWW WHY DO THEY HAVE TO SHOW THE WHOLE KISS AHAHAAHAHAHA um gross right

Dima: Yes, looks unhygienic

Anya is crushed.]

Misty (MixedUpMysteries) asks: Have you ever interacted with Olya’s boyfriend Sergei? If so, what was the interaction like, or how do you feel about him?

Dima: I’ve heard of him. He seems, uh… reasonable. Though Olga's tastes can be a bit peculiar, so you can never be too sure.

[Shows Olya munching on something.

Olya: Want some?

Dima: What is it?

Olya: Cucumber & strawberry salad.

Dima: Oh...]

I guess Anya knows more about him than I do.

[Anya: That guy hates Yura’s guts, gahaha!

Dima: Cool.

Both are eating ice cream.] 

Regarding that 03, KT… She stepped out of line. So… That’s just how the world works. Well, most of it, I guess.

Nana asks: Has Anya ever showed you the fanfiction she likes?

Dima: What's-

Anya offscreen: WHY THE FUCK WOULD I DO THAT

MatthTheMagical asks: What are your thoughts on Sanya? Is it very similar to that of Yura?

Dima: Surprisingly, she’s not half as obnoxious. But she is an idiot. She made it too easy to get rid of her. And the fact that she’s following Yura of all people… 

She doesn’t make sense at all.

[Sanya: Btw, want me to bring you some stuff to watch? Or read! I have lots of comics, well, manga mostly, I think you’d like it…]

But, uh… That’s just how idiots are.

Susik asks: What do you generally, like, do? Maybe you have discovered a hobby of sorts or a way to pass time while Anya is at school? I can imagine you staring at a wall for 8 hours straight, but I promise you there are more fun activities than that.

Dima: Why would I stare at a wall? Are you stupid?

I mean… Admittedly, it was difficult at first. There was always something to do at the institute. And I knew when to do it. And I knew when things happened. Wake up at 7, breakfast at 8, checkup at 9, et cetera. And the smaller tasks between those were also, um… It was very easy like that.

I still go through the same motions. But there’s too much empty space now. Most of my time is empty space, sleep notwithstanding. 

Now I’ve figured it out somewhat. I think. I wrote up some new tasks. Washing the dishes, vacuuming, doing the laundry. Olga tells me that I don’t have to, but I do.

But those also run out. She gave me the key so that I could go for walks. I don’t like doing that, though. 

...I like the internet here. It’s very, um. It’s fascinating. So when I don’t know what to do, I just watch things on there. And read. Time passes faster that way.

Also, uh… We’ve made a list of things to watch with Anya, stuff that I couldn’t at the Institute. So we’re getting through that. It’s interesting.
