RP log ~ Nash
In which Nash and Kidd discuss the job Queen has hired them to do, and a decision is reached about how to go about investigating. They hit it off marvelously.
Kidd: *meandering through the halls of the sublevel with a notebook in tow, searching for any suspicious characters.*
Nash: *sneakily walks up behind Kidd and lightly taps his shoulder*
Kidd: *spins around and nearly falls over himself* --?! ...Oh. It's you. >_>; What happened to your average "hullo"?
Nash: "Average". That's why. I like to make my own kind of entrance. Besides, you'r---wait, it's you?! What's that supposed to mean?
Kidd: *cheeky grin* Queen told me I'd be getting a new babysitter soon.
Nash: B-BABYSITTER?! I'm probably three times your age!
Kidd: *rolls his eyes* Yeah, maybe twice, but not thrice. Apparently she thinks I need a babysitter. Me. She's always been kind of weird anyway.
Nash: The term looks can be decieving seems to apply here, I guess. Anyway, I guess we're going to be working together now... and since i'm your "babysitter" that means things will be going my way.
Kidd: I wouldn't quite say that. Besides, I have some notes you might need. *petty wave* You're just better at concealing yourself as a spy, which I can use.
Nash: Oh? And what might these notes be? 'Sides, if you can use me... doesn't that mean you need me? Therefore, things will have to go my way.
Kidd: Why not split it even and we'll both have a say? Disagreements can be dangerous if this turns out to be a more involved investigation, and besides, Queen probably will pay us the same amount.
Nash: Don't go spending all that money on candy now, okay little guy?
Kidd: *scowls* I have better things to invest my finances in, thankyouverymuch. *folds his arms* So what are your plans, since you're the babysitter?
Nash: I forgot that toys and the likes are still popular with kids these days. I apologize. Well, since we're going to work together... could probably start by interviewing both Colton and Rekion.
Kidd: *twitches at his misconception* Sounds logical enough. Rekion's still asleep in the infirmary, and Colton's ship is docked at the lake. We'd probably get things done faster if each of us took an interview.
Nash: Actually, I was thinking that you could interview Colton. He's old, so i'm sure he children. I can put my moves on Rekion.... y'know, that way we don't seem suspicious?enjoys
Kidd: *flat look* You're going to flirt with an infirm patient who just recovered from major physical reconstruction? That's reaaaaal inconspicuous.
Nash: *grin* Did I say that?
Kidd: In so many words. *immature look of disgust*
Nash: *places his hand on Kidd's head and pats* It's okay, you're still too young to understand how us adults handle things.
Kidd: *injured ego flares* Think what you want, but if you'd rather interview Rekion, be my guest. Just be careful. She is a killer.
Nash: Well, I guess I'll just have to put her down.
Kidd: ........I did mention she was recovering still, right?
Nash: Yeah. *15 seconds of silence* So?
Kidd: *facepalm* Just don't do anything stupid that would jeopardize the investigation.
Nash: Man, since when did I ever fail?
Nash: Oh, I forgot. When I was active you weren't even born yet.
Kidd: *scowls and gathers his notebook* Age doesn't always make you a winner. I've got the benefit of the doubt on my side, since I'm "just a kid." Colton will probably let his defenses down and spill some secrets.
Nash: Yeah, I wonder why.
Nash: Probably because you answered your own question; you're just a kid. And old guys love kids.
Nash: Especially old lonely guys.
Kidd: ...........
Kidd: *swallows back his disgust* As soon as you gather what you can from your interview with Rekion, report back to me and we'll compare notes.
Nash: You're such the cutest little thing, acting like a grown up. I gotta tell Queen this.
Nash: *hands him some candy*
Kidd: I AM A DETECTIVE, not a toddler. .......*longgg pause, then grabs the candy and stuffs it in his shorts pocket*
Nash: Yes, of course you're a detective. You're anything you want to be if you put your mind to it.
Kidd: That's the most positive thing I think I've heard you say yet. *grins* This might just work out.
Nash: *extends arm for handshake* Partners?
Kidd: *accepts the shake, glancing up at the taller man* Partners then.
Nash: *pats his head once again, messing his hair up* You're so cute.
Kidd: Ugh. *twitches* ...
Nash: *laughs*
Kidd: Whatever. *sticks his hat back on* I hope you're as good as Queen says. *gives Nash a wave and continues back down the hall, eating the candy*
