Biggest country in world I know but Initiative don't seem to bother to bring anyone else but me. Too many goddamned Americans and Japanese. [ Says the heavy Russian accent. ] And aliens. And fucking elves. [ For all the emphasis he puts on that word, he doesn't sound angry. More of a 'fuck, what the hell, man?'

... Sorry, elves. He's targeting one elf in particular and he doesn't much care if there's more of them.

Sharp snort. Sound of a lighter snapping on, and the crackling of cigarettes. Then the camera switches on.

Have a pair of heavily tattooed hands, one of them curled around a white stick. Then he tips the tablet upwards until it shows his face, and Nikolai pulls off the sunglasses. ]

You lot ever get tired of talking on this thing? Bunch of stupid questions lately. [ He takes a drag of the cigarette, and blows it at the screen. ] You've all forgotten how to fuck, or something?


[ ooc; for any character with knowledge of Russian criminals, Nikolai's hands carry tattoos that basically says he's one of the worst ones out there. Yeah.

Also, content warnings for sexual assault for the thread with Steph (controlledvariable). ]

[ Shrugs. ]

Da. But watching people do stupid things from video, not very interesting.

You like your carnage in person? Certainly limits your options.

[justthedriver]

Maybe I just don't need carnage to keep me going. [ Shrugs. ] Who knows?

[strategic_guile]

Keeping you going on not, options? Still limited.

[There's an amusement to his voice though.] I think I'll take back that offer though.

[justthedriver]

Disappointing of me, but very wise of you.

[strategic_guile]

[Laughing.] So very disappointing.

[Topic switch] Do you want more Russians to get stuck here? Misery loves company?

[justthedriver]

[ Pleasantly: ]

Bolyeye roosskikh oznachayet, chto oni znayot, chto ya guovoryo.

[ More Russians mean they know what I'm saying. ]

[strategic_guile]

Never did figure out Russian.

[He replays that with the translator on, thanks.]

Well, teach some people. I know someone who'd love to learn it. It'll take her a few weeks though.

[justthedriver]

[ He bursts out laughing at that. ]

Nyet. Few weeks not enough for Russian. [ Dryly. ]

[strategic_guile]

[Renee spoke Russian, but Blaine had stopped trying to repeat her words long ago. Understanding was more important anyway. He chuckles.]

Alright, maybe a month for her to speak it passably.
