Look, I can’t say I’m exactly pleased about being brought here -- wherever the hell “here” actually is -- but I’m not going to complain too much. Yet. I mean, the alternative was getting eaten by a bunch of zombies, which believe me, was not high on my “to do” list.

The problem I have is being asked to fight in a war that I’m pretty sure I’m not going to be giving a shit about. I look after only one person: me. Just make sure you remember that.

Oh yeah, anyone happen to know of a decent tailor around here?

Oh this is just great.No one told me that babysitting was part of the job.

[sixthanimorph]

That's because it's not.

[He flops down in the couch like he owns it.]

You can get lost as far as I'm concerned. I don't do the whole roommates thing.

[gamblinman]

Damn, and I was so looking forward to us getting bunkbeds and staying up all night playing “Blind Date” and giggling over all the cute boys.

[He shifts over a little]

And don’t mess up the suit. [That would be the suit currently covered in green slime and what looks suspiciously like blood]

[sixthanimorph]

[He glances over at the suit in question, one eyebrow raising in magnificent skepticism.]

Wouldn't dream of it. Looks like you already did a great job of that on your own.

[He reaches for the counter, grabs the remote and inspects it.] Don't expect me to stick around here long anyway. Being a soldier's not my style.

[gamblinman]

Yeah, well if you find a way out of this place, let me know. I'm not exactly keen to stay here either.

[sixthanimorph]

Yeah? No offense, but you look like the type who'd sign up for this. You're saying they just grabbed you up too?

[gamblinman]

[Nick makes a face at that.] I don’t volunteer for anything kid, believe me.

[sixthanimorph]

[David cocks an eyebrow and glances sideways at him.]

They got a real weird way of recruiting then. You'd think if they're going to all this trouble they'd grab the kind of people who're too dumb to do anything but follow orders.

[gamblinman]

[Nick chuckles wryly.]

You counting yourself in that group, kid?

[sixthanimorph]

[David can't help himself from laughing at that.]

Pal, I'm only ever in one group, and that's the group of me. The last guys that tried 'recruiting' me like this? I made 'em realize real quick why that was a mistake.

[gamblinman]

[He arches his eyebrow at that.]

Oh, yeah? What'd you do?
