"Hangovers? Psh, y'don't know half the shit this ol' man has gone through, I tell ya! I was a proud marine back in the day, fightin' 'em bug scum."
[i]Jason exclaimed, raising his right, prosthetic arm while he tapped the metal plate in his chest with the fingers on his left hand. He had been torn to pieces in the past. Mortally wounded.. But that didn't stop this raggedy old bastard. Once Chloanne started walking away, Jason fücked off to the bar, yelling at the top of his lungs:[/i]
"Oi! OI! A ROUND FOR E'RYONE O' YA BASTARDS IN 'IS 'ERE BAR!"
[i]After which he proceeded to, well, buy everyone a drink, while Lucas just sipped his coke - though he didn't say no once he was given a shot glass filled with bourbon, instead putting it to his lips and chugging it all. [/i]

Chloanne had stopped just short of a foot from Lucas. She was carefully thinking of how she should say this. Then she spoke. "Heeeyy Lucas..please don't run, I don't have anything on me to harm you. I just want some answers and I promise I won't get pissed..What was up with that psycho girl a while back? The one that tried to kill me?" She said, her hands resting on her hips. Chloanne did tell the truth, no poison daggers strapped to her thighs or anything.
-
[i]Lucas.. Well, Lucas fücking froze up, completely and utterly terrified. He didn't.. believe Chloanne, still being a firm believer in that she'd harm him, especially after what happened.. But, because he figured he couldn't just run with her right there he remained in place, [/i] "Keira? Oh.. We flirted. I thought it was playful, and that even the kiss thing was just a joke.. I wasn't serious about it. Then you showed up and I panicked." [i]He said, explaining what had happened with a genuine tone. 'Twas true; he did, honestly, think it was just playful.. Apparently Keira thought differently. [/i]

"Kiss..thing?" This was new to Chloanne as her eyes widened at this revelation. Though she decided to inform Lucas what happened. "After you ran off, this Keira you mention attacked me. Tried to kill me in fact over you, of course I stabbed her in the kidney, she's okay now. But she did mention something about being alone...that I didn't understand. Of course I was alone for 20-ish years until I met Roderick and another 9 years until I started being with you. Now tell me, do I still not understand?" Chloanne said, giving Lucas some more knowledge about herself.
-
"Yes.. Kiss thing. She wanted to.. kiss me. I didn't, of course.. But nevertheless.. And, I was alone for about twenty-six years.. Unless things like lil' relationships and stuff during highschool count.. Then I met.. hmm.. Mir'ika I think her name was. Always called her Miri.. But that was nine years ago.." [i]Luke directed bus attention to the barkeep for a bit, ordering a Bacardi cola. Nice and simple, truly. He placed the glass to his lips, taking a small sip, letting out a small sigh in delight as the booze ran down his throat. Closet alcoholic, seriously. [/i] "Still. I don't approve of you two fighting - especially not over someone."
-
"Truthfully, it was self defense in my case. Besides, aren't we a thing?" Chloanne responded, leaning in and giving the alcoholic cyborg a kiss on the cheek. "I mean, how can someone as strong as you be afraid of me? It's not like I'm a scary Witch- oh wait I am. Ha ha. Only for tonight though."
-
[i]Said alcoholic cyborg visible relaxed, taking another sip from his drink. He then turned around to face Chloanne, leaning against the bar. [/i] "I mean, your brother is an Inquisitor of the Imperium.. The same Imperium that can murder planets themselves and everything on them, and have those walking steroids.. Uh.. Adeptus Astartes? I dunno.. Not to mention that he has some neat things, like.. Artificer Armour, I think it's called."
-
"Ling isn't here. He found a way back to the Milky Way system a few months back. The Imperium can't exactly just use Exterminatus on everything either, I know this because I was a Rogue Trader with a [i]pretty[/i] valuable contract and yes you did get the Adeptus Astartes right." She explained, resting her right hand on Lucas's shoulder. Chloanne didn't bother to get anything to drink or eat tonight, seeing how she had gotten something to eat earlier. "I didn't go back mostly because I don't want to. It's kind of better here honestly."
