[Video] Post Event

[thankyou4myheart]

I . . . I want to apologize for everyone I interacted with over the past few weeks.  It was behavior unbecoming of a police officer.  I believe I was under the influence of . . . something.  [He's honestly not sure what, or how.]  It was not voluntary, but i-if . . . if anyone feels disciplinary action would be appropriate . . .

[He shakes himself a bit, engine running just a little harder than normal - despite the calm exterior, he's really upset about this.]

If anyone needs me, I'll . . .

I'll be in Alpha Trion's temple, in the libraries.

[not!hiding...]

Bah, who gives a crap about the First-Forged. You worry too much, you know that? Besides, none of it was really your fault anyway. Who's gonna hold it against you?

[thankyou4myheart]

[small grin]

You've not met any of the First-Forged yet, Gunmax. They're . . . impressive. To say the least.

[Then again, Gunmax is irreverent enough that he might still not be "properly impressed" even if he had met them.]

[The last gets a shrug.]

I don't know. Nobody I suppose. If they understand it really wasn't me talking.

[Still feels like shit, though, man...]

[badboybikerbot]

Uh huh, impressive. Good for them.

[DISMISSIVE WRIST FLIPPING. Yeah that's accurate, he's kind of a douche that way.]

Of course they understand it. Besides, you're a total boy scout. One of those do no wrong kinda guys. You're in the clear.

[thankyou4myheart]

[You always do know how to make him feel better, bro. Even if it's just by amusing him.]

You almost make that sound like it's a bad thing.

[badboybikerbot]

Well, you are kind of a dork sometimes, but I think the world could use more boy scouts.

[thankyou4myheart]

Gee, thanks, Gunmax.

[At least that comes out with a chuckle, ne?]

[badboybikerbot]

Hold up, was that sarcasm!? Deckard, you keep surprising me!

[totally going to tease you forever bro, not even sorry]

[thankyou4myheart]

[A little amused, a little flustered]

I'm not completely incapable.

[Just mostly...]

[badboybikerbot]

[good that means Gunmax is winning. Or something.]

Just takes a little practice, baby. You'll be snarking like the pros in no time.

[thankyou4myheart]

[A laugh]

I should hope so. I have the best teacher.

[badboybikerbot]

Hey, I gotta be good at teaching something, right? It sure as hell isn't manners.

You know what we oughta do some time? We should totally hit the bar. Roll in and pick up chicks or something. You know the drill.

[thankyou4myheart]

No, definitely not that.

  [He knew you were worth fighting for, bro.  Even if he initially had to piss you off doing it.  At the latter, though, he's shaking his head with a grin.]

  Gunmax, exactly what "chicks" would we even be picking up?  Unless you're into humans now.  [He's only heard of one – well, one robot – in all of Haven, and he heard of her from PJ…when their teammate was telling him about his girl problems.  Not that robot/human wholly COULDN'T be done . . . just ask McCrane.]

[badboybikerbot]

Huh. Good point. Okay, scratch the chicks. We'll just go and get you really drunk.

[thankyou4myheart]

I've been really drunk once, actually. [Not on purpose – neither he nor Albert had thought to check if he /could/ actually get drunk first.] It's not nearly as enjoyable as you think. But . . . I think I'd like a drink, yes. When should I meet you? And at the Hub, I'm assuming, right?

[badboybikerbot]

[WAIT BACK UP. Gunmax slams his fist on SOMETHING and looks absolutely offended]

YOU!? You got drunk once and I wasn't there to see it!? That's so unfair!

[He's totally joking though don't worry]

Yeah, the Hub. I'm free whenever. We can give it a few days if you want.

[thankyou4myheart]

[The reaction takes him aback but only for about half a second.  He chuckles.]

  It wasn't intentional, if that helps at all.  I'll tell you about it when we get together.

  And . . . yeah.  I think Blurr's on his way over here to the library.  Tomorrow?

[badboybikerbot]

[really you should just expect it by now Deckard]

Tomorrow works. I'll meet you there, baby.

[thankyou4myheart]

Sounds good.  I'll see you then.

[badboybikerbot]

[oh yay. gunmax gives deckard a little salute before LOGGING OFF like a boss]
