Ridiculous. I have opinions about many things.

[winebar]

[Well now he has regrets.]

No wonder you behave so lawlessly.

[third_alternative]

[ crosses his arms ]

Name three.

[third_alternative]

Hey! I still defend people from monsters and everything! Not my fault the real, lawful organization I worked for got taken over by power hungry tyrants!

'Sides, if the law can just let that happen, then it's not really worth following.

[winebar]

I enjoy sourcing good wine. I do not like poorly applied systems of law. I think bats are an elegant animal.

[winebar]

[Ugh.]

I hope you are at least trying to regain control of the organization.

[third_alternative]

Mostly? We're just trying to stop 'em from like, taking over the whole universe. Figuring out what to do with it comes after all that. Like dessert!

[third_alternative]

[ squints and rubs his chin in thought ] Hmmmm...

Yeah, okay.

So...bats, huh? I bet you and Rameel get along great.

[winebar]

[He is so tired.]

I cannot help but wonder if you are making all of this up.

[winebar]

Absolutely not. I am not friendly with clowns.

[third_alternative]

Psh, if you think that's made up, then wait 'til you get a load of my talking chimp combat partner.

[third_alternative]

[ Rex bursts out laughing, much the same way i myself did upon reading this tag ]

Aww, but you have so much in common!

[winebar]

[I'm glad.]

Wh- Such as what!?
[OFFENDED.]

[third_alternative]

Liking bats!

[winebar]

That's superficial at best.

[third_alternative]

Hey, you don't know that! Maybe if you two talked about why you like bats so much, you might find maybe it's not so superficial after all.

Or what, are you afraid of having anything in common with them?

[winebar]

I'm not afraid. Why would I be afraid of something like that?

[third_alternative]

Because, no one wants to see a part of themselves in someone they hate.

But just cuz you don't wanna see it doesn't mean it isn't there.

[winebar]

I do not hate them. I simply find their personality unpleasant.

But fine. Next time I speak to them, I will ask about it.
[Just to prove he isn't SCARED.]

[winebar]

...


Actually, I feel a monkey is a fitting partner for you.
[This ice cold burn.]

[third_alternative]

Tell me how it goes, will you?

[winebar]

What-Why? I hardly see how it affects you.

w2, thursday

[ when Rex spots van Zieks in the kitchen, he freezes up and turns around, ready to go the other way. But then he turns around again and walks RIGHT INTO THE KITCHEN, very decisively. ]

Hey, I need to talk to y--

What are you doing with all those beans.

[winebar]

[I mean he was going to just have a single can but this is funnier. He has four of them.]

It is none of your concern. What did you need to tell me?

[third_alternative]

Well, now it's plenty of my concern. What do you need so many beans for?
