So when are you just gonna wake up and smell the coffee? I feel like I should be insulted that you're finding writing about my personality difficult.

Then again, I guess I should also be grateful that I'm narrowly avoiding getting thrown into yet another Raccoon City situation. Was on the verge of thinking I'd never get a day off.

[wryyyyy]

I, Dio, feel like I should be insulted for the same reasons. Though... what is it that you want them to "smell", exactly?

[loreal]

[ UH WAIT trying to think of a witty quip but...

... drawing a blank. holy shit. there is a god. ]

The... coffee. It's a figure of speech.

[wryyyyy]

[pause]

I know.

[um duh I totally knew that. I know modern figures of speed because I am an age appropriate of my looks, and I'm definitely not 100+ years old. also I haven't been at the bottom of the ocean for most of those years. which I haven't experienced because I'm not 100+ years old.]

What is... the coffee. [ha ha I'm so composed and mysterious look at me.]

[loreal]

[ oh... uh.

wait.

hold on.

this is leon s. kennedy so he probably has a cup of coffee on him for whatever reason.

WHIPS IT OUT. ]

Why don't you just give it a try?

[wryyyyy]

[What - oh. Hm.]

I have no taste for normal food and drink anymore, but... [What the hell, he'll humor the man with this modern drink whoops I forgot for some reason that coffee existed before the 1900s so let's just say he never had it before anyway. He steps forward to take it, and drinks one big gulp. Of coffee.]

... Hm. Hot. I, Dio, cannot taste this coffee... but I can see why humans could like it.

[loreal]

Heh.

Just wait for it to kick in and you'll get where "we humans" are coming from.

[ what is even going on here ]

my icons are too dramatic for this

[wryyyyy]

[a 120-something-year-old vampire didn't get a figure of speech and Leon gave him coffee

sounds about right]

You mean the 'caffeine'. [cue Dio verbally airquoting everything.] That won't affect me either. But I believe it.

[loreal]

A cuppa' joe won't affect a guy like you? For some reason, I have a hard time believing that.

[ but why ]

[wryyyyy]

[idfk]

The only thing that I drink, much less would affect me in anymore, is blood.

[sighs as if he had to spell it out for him.

like um duh leon.]

Hey man, just be glad your zombie problems aren't a 24/7 thing. Been there, done that, and I do not recommend it.

[loreal]

Wait, we're talking literally 24/7 here?

And I thought I had it bad.

[references]

Yep, full-on apocalypse status. What can you do.

But hey, I hope you get that day off soon.

[loreal]

Honestly, given your situation, I think it's safe to say it could always be worse.

[torsion]

I think my personality started off in bullet points with the word "loyal" and then three or four question marks following it. Worse words to be associated with, I suppose.

Speaking of Raccoon, sorry about that welcome wagon. It's probably better we never crossed paths back then, anyway.

[loreal]

It was one helluva reality check, I'll give you that but hey. At least we both came out still breathing.

[torsion]

Nothing like going on a cold trail for months only to find out what you've been looking for is right beneath your feet the whole time. I'd like to take credit for getting out with skill, but I think more than half of it was dumb luck.

[pagliacci]

Well, look at it this way. If gettin' a handle on ya was that simple, then it'd be kinda borin', right? So that must mean you've got a great personality goin' for ya! You should take it as a compliment, prettyboy!

[loreal]

Well, when you put a spin on it like that, I guess it doesn't sound so bad.

[pagliacci]

Y'see! There ya go, then! That mun a'yours'll be crankin' out a novel all aboutcha in no time! So enjoy yer days off while ya still can!

[scanner]

Stupid... boy...

It was... pure luck... that got you through Raccoon...

[loreal]

More like pure skill. Didn't half your team end up rooting for me anyway? Heh.

[scanner]

Those fools...

And now... they rest in graves... don't they?

[loreal]

Yeah. Umbrella sure has seen better days, huh?

[ s m i r k s ]

[scanner]

That... is classified...

[thatsclassified.wav]

[loreal]

[ he

uh

wait.

mmm. ]

Wow. You guys sure are a quirky bunch. Color me unsurprised.

[scanner]

Mmm. Yes...

[:}]

[loreal]

[ leon doesn't know what else to do at this point so

cue boss fight part 2 ]

[scanner]

[WHERE ARE MY PARTNERS

holds up his rifle anyway and ducks behind some crates]

[loreal]

[ teamed up with leon obv.

shooting at poor spectre.

because leon is the most popular person on the planet.

flips geforce hair and starts tossing grenades at this jackass. ]

[ariyouserious]

Ehhh, you ask me, I'd take what'chu can get. No incidents mean less paperwork fer you t'hafta deal with. But then I guess it's all this talk about paperwork that kicked this whole thing off, ain't it?

[loreal]

Hey, I'll take paperwork over a virus that threatens to exterminate the entire human race any day. Just sayin'.

[ariyouserious]

A what now? A -

[Norman blinks in surprise before letting loose a haggard, tired sigh.]

Christ. 'N I thought I had it rough. What, er.... what depahtment didja say y'worked for again?

[loreal]

I think the real question is what department haven't I worked for?

Seriously. I've got a killer resume.

[peepot]

OIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

YOU THERE! Where's yeh breathin' trolleyyyyyyy?? Gonna SUFFocate! YEP!

[loreal]

Er.

Alright.

Whatever you say, tough guy.
