(Here's everything verified on the sheet, but I'd thought I make it fun.)
-
“Mr. Wilkinson, will you please enter.” Pause. “Please sit down.” Pause. “Thank you.”
“I don’t mean to pry Madam, but what the hell am I here? I haven’t found out anything since I was called here this morning.”
“No major reason Mr. Wilkinson, you’re not in trouble. We just want to ask you some questions.”
“Well…alright. That doesn’t sound too bad. Shoot.”
“Could you please state your full name?”
“Tallow Maloon Wilkinson, Madam.”
“Current age and date of birth?”
“I’m 26, born July 18th, 2514.”
“Initial gender?”
“…um…male?”
“That is satisfactory. Hair and eye color as of birth?”
“Black hair, blue eyes, just as you see now…though I don’t think I had a goatee as a baby.”
“Height and weight?”
“6’ 2 ½” and 173lbs in district measurements, 1.83m and 78.6 kg in metric.”
“Direct family, alive or dead, relations to them and marital status?”
‘Unmarried. Mother and father, Margret and Ja Heen Wilkinson. Status: Dead, killed by house fire. One sister, Jolene Wilkinson. Status: Alive, age 17. I am her legal guardian until she turns 18.”
“Occupation?”
“Author.”
“Weapon of choice?”
“Weapon of- What do you take me for?! An assassin?! I’m a writer, not a murderer!”
“I did not mean to alarm you Mr. Wilkinson. Allow me to rephrase the question. Do you carry any weapons on a daily basis?”
“Just a blast pistol like everyone else. Understand, I mainly carry it as a social norm. I wouldn’t use in unless I absolutely needed to. Then again, these days you can never be too careful.”
I see. Just a few more questions.”
“Alright.”
“What is your viewpoint point on the Stingers?”
“Should I have one out of the ordinary?”
“Perhaps.” Pause. “Are you aware that any literature by Isaac Asimov is considered unstable, and anyone noted with such literature in their possession are to be brought in and questioned?
“What?! Aw, hell. No, I didn’t. Shit. I’m really sorry, I had no idea. I just found the book lying in my attic. It must have been from before the restriction on it."
“Well. That’s all we needed to know. You may leave Mr. Wilkinson.”
“Thank you, Madam.” With that, he stood and left. A voice rang in the woman’s earpiece.
“Is he part of the Underground?” She bit her lip.
“For once… I’m not sure.”
