Looks like moving out of transport housing when I did was one of my better decisions.

[ Deadpan as ever. Yeah, guess who's looking at the apartment complex right now. Almost everything is bombed to hell. Except for his own single apartment further away from the Hold which is pretty damn cool. ]

Though I have to wonder if that was caused by the bombs or another type of explosive. Or maybe a chain reaction.

[ You know who you are. And if this is your fault, kid, Adam hopes you're happy now, you asked for it. ]

Anyway, do we have a status report? Not like I'm expecting an official one anytime soon, given the levels of competence and efficiency we're working with here.


[ Private and 98% unhackable, for Bunny Barnaby. ]

How's it look? The precinct-to-be still standing?

[ There's a notable pause. ]

Should probably get a move on, given the chaos. It's a breeding ground for more.

Mmn?

[neveraskedforthis]

Did you take off your suit even once while we were underground?

[ doesn't it start to smell.... ?]

[raisedbybirds]

I waited until you weren't looking.

[neveraskedforthis]

Missed the show, huh?

[ he's starting to think you're either shy or deformed. ]

[raisedbybirds]

You missed everything. How will you live with yourself?

[neveraskedforthis]

I won't. Curiosity is gonna kill me.

[ deadpan.... though actually he is sort of curious. ]

[raisedbybirds]

That's unfortunate.

[so much deadpan here between the two of them]

I call dibs on your place. Or am I going to have to duke it out with your homeless alcoholic friend?

[neveraskedforthis]

That's cold, man.

[ uh what. ]

Excuse me?

[raisedbybirds]

After you die from all that curiosity you won't need your place anymore, will you?

[neveraskedforthis]

Don't you have your own place? Or was that bombed too, and this is your way of asking if I have a third bed?

I'm not sure you'd even fit through the doorframe in that suit. Just figured I'd point that out.

[raisedbybirds]

[She'll get back to you on that one. Samus isn't quite sure what the lesser of the two evils is here: sharing a room with someone else or sharing a room with someone else.]

I'm sure I could handle your door if you fit in it. ur fat

[SHE SAYS THAT NOW...]

[neveraskedforthis]

[ OH SAMUS .... ]

Don't even think about making your own entrance.

[ NO WALL PUNCHING. no door punching, either! ]

One night. Maybe two. But only if you get out of the suit, because I doubt we'll all fit in there if you keep it on. I'm serious.

[raisedbybirds]

Who else did you invite?

[She's using the term invite loosely and in somewhat of a derogatory sense.]

[neveraskedforthis]

I didn't invite anyone.

[ grml. ]

Also he might be a homeless alcoholic, but I'm not sure friend is the right term here. More like a 'constant source of irritation'.

[raisedbybirds]

What'd you do to him?

[If she were asking James for his side of the story she'd word it same way.]

[neveraskedforthis]

[ Nothing actually! Well okay-- ]

I punched him in the face. But he asked for it.

[raisedbybirds]

He asked to get punch in the face.

[RAISIN AN EYEBROW AT YOU, JENSEN.]

[neveraskedforthis]

Well, not directly.

[ DOOP DOOP ]

[raisedbybirds]

How does one indirectly ask for a punch in the face?

[neveraskedforthis]

By being an obnoxious son of a bitch doing a good job of pissing me the fuck off.

[ Well, at least he's totally upfront about it. ]

WOW WHAT was that last reply even where was my brain

[raisedbybirds]

Duly noted.

[At least he's upfront about it.]

hahaha

[neveraskedforthis]

Any more questions?

[ Because if not he will just send you the address later!! ]

you saw nothing

[raisedbybirds]

Not at the moment.

[She'll keep the punching thing in mind for James, though.]

nothing at all

[neveraskedforthis]

Good.

[ Yeah you will get to punch him soon enough. ]

Drop by whenever it's convenient.

[raisedbybirds]

[Fashionably late is convenient. She's coming largely for your booze, watch out.]
