Nostalgia bit me hard [canon is COLUMBO]

Well, hello there, Miss.... er... Miss Mun?

Huh. Now, that's a very unique name you have there. Very unique.

[lights a cigar and smiles at his typist's frustration]

Now, you can't be that surprised that you can't find any of those little picture things of me - any more than the one you have so far that is. Not exactly like I am a big deal. Not like these other kids around here. Guess you'll have to make some. Don't worry - I'll still be here. You got some nice accommodations in this 'headspace' of yours. Lots of interesting people.

[Walter looks puzzled and curious.]

You're a...detective?

[Sort of a bedraggled detective perhaps but at least he doesn't look as nerdy as Wally.]

If you're having some computer problems, perhaps I could help?

Technically a lieutenant but I've never been much of one for formalities. Name's Columbo.

[looks over at his mun]

Miss Mun here thinks I need more of these little picture things. However, she can't seem to find more and she doesn't have what she needs to make her own. Used to. Not anymore though.

[He offers his hand.] Walter Nebicher, NYPD. Nice to meet you, Lieutenant Columbo.

[Walter pops on his glasses, sitting down at a computer nearby. In a few minutes, he's brought up a website that might help.] How about this? Screencaps from all of first season...that's the best I can find for now.

[Columbo takes the offered hand with a smile.]

Well, now that's awfully nice of you, Walter. Awfully nice. Yes. Yes, she's 'bookmarked' that for later.

[OOC: I lost the disk to re-download my editing software. ;_; I may have Inuyasha over on dear_player complaining about this. xD Thank you, though. Once I get new software I will definitely use these.]

[He shrugs as if it's no big deal, he's the sole computer expert for his division. Most people there don't even trust computers yet.]

No need to wait for later. Pick out whatever ones you like and when you upload them, it should automatically let you crop them...er...cut them to size, you see.

[ooc: no prob! I use GIMP myself, its free to download, but dreamwidth now has its own editing software built in. If that doesn't work, I could crop some icons for you too, if you want?]

Well, how do ya like that? I tell ya these computers nowadays are marvelous. Just marvelous. Where I'm from computers, well, one takes up an entire room but here - well, they're handheld sometimes.

Thank you, Walter. You've been very helpful. I appreciate that.

[ooc: I'm still trying to get GIMP to let me crop and re-size the way I want. I'm making progress with Dreamwidth but still not cropping the way I want them.

Thank you for the offer but I don't want to impose. <3]

Handheld?? Really? Wow...

[Walter still lives in an era of room sized computers, slightly smaller but not nearly as portable as laptops or ipads.]

Wonder what Auto would think of that...

[ooc: GIMP took me awhile to get used to. It wouldn't be any imposition at all, I love making icons. PM me and let me know what you want and I'll see if I can make it. :)]

My mun is having a similar, if opposite problem. Apparently I am far too new to have decent .... what they are calling 'screencaps' or 'icons'.

[Is he grumbling moodily under that helmet. Why, yes, yes he is.]

[Well here's something you don't see everyday - or ever.]

I beg your pardon?

What can you not understand?

[Darn muffling helmet.]

I... Well...

[clears throat]

I beg your pardon, Sir. I'm just not familiar with your clothing.

Why should this concern me?

That isn't her name. [He means the "Mun" thing.] It's what they're all called around here.

[Please excuse this 6ft-something teen nonchalantly chilling close by with his hands in his pockets. HE'S... GOTTA LOOK COOL FOR HIS IDOL.

I'm so sorry.]

Oh? Huh. Well, I did find it to be a different sort of name. Thank you for the clarification, Mr...?

What do you mean you're not a big deal? You're pretty much the only thing my own mun watches on Netflix.

[And that way you caught that nephew who used the exploding cigar to kill his uncle, genius!]
