daytime base filter;

[all the other Methuselah were asleep at this hour -- and so, it's only Abel (and his prisoner) left to greet her in the stable end of the base.

he arches a brow in the common room where he'd been leaned back in one of the chairs, idly perusing the journal and finishing the last touches on certain... plans, for the next evening.]

...

[HE SMELLS SUGAR.]

[darkevangel]

[ Hey now, it might be day, but it's closer to sunset than it is noon, and some of the less lazy ones might be getting up.

Oh wait, they're all lazy, aren't they?

Still, she sees Abel and cracks a smile. Why is it that she respects him, but not the others in power? ]

Good afternoon.

hay dauder how u doin' while thems sleepin' a sleep

[custodismundi]

[the same reason he would never nom you, Evangeline?

he might not return her smile, but nor does he brush her off either.]

You've been frequenting the city often.

[...also, HE SMELLS SUGAR]

doin' gud

[darkevangel]

[ She kind of waves her hand dismissively. ]

It's boring around here during the day.

And besides... [ DRAMATIC PAUSE ] I brought back gifts.

o yeah? how's the weather down there babycakes

[custodismundi]

[instead of replying, he just... looks at the box

because

he

smells sugar. there is sugar in there, isn't there? something sweet... DID YOU KNOW HIS WEAKNESS?!?!]

............... /SOB

[darkevangel]

[ Slowly...

SLOWLY....

opens the box....

slowlier ]

<:

[custodismundi]

[LMAO...

he arches a brow, before... reaching for the box, holding it a bit closer to look inside. enjoy the look of puzzlement. probably doesn't become this animated except to be angry or psycho, ever.]

...Cakes?

[o-omg they're so cute... I MEAN. THEY'RE SO. ........yeah okay they're cute whatever SO? SO? YOU WANNA START SOMETHING 'CAUSE HE THINKS THEY'RE CUTE? HUH PUNK GOD.]

:3c

[darkevangel]

Cupcakes.

[ She pulls one out, examining it. SO CUTE, RIGHT? ]

They look pretty good, don't you think?

[custodismundi]

[hou. he takes one out, as well, looking at it for a second. h-hngh. totally shouldn't be humoring something so CUTE... but he cannot resist its sugary pull...]

...Mm. [damn you, Evangeline. almost absently as he peels the paper off the bottom:] They take things like this for granted.

[darkevangel]

[ YEAH that's right. Enjoy yo' cupcake. ]

Don't they just? [ She shakes her head in mock sadness.

And hey, when they kill everybody, can they spare the baker? ]

[custodismundi]

[things like this were PROHIBITED from a clone's diet when he was growing up. he will take a bite and savor mmm.]

Have you seen the priests since the child at the fountain?

[in town. since you're spending so much time there. he can totally talk business as he's nomming.]

[darkevangel]

[ noms her own cupcake

and man, don't you ever have any other conversation topics? ]

I haven't seen hide nor hair of them. I suppose they're sticking to the church. [ disgust as she says that last word ]

[custodismundi]

[his topics of conversation consist of: genocide and means by which to employ genocide. pick your poison.]

Don't continue to be reckless in daytime hours. They'll become wise to your movements. Tracking us here while our numbers are so few may result in something unpleasant.

[they'd have to go all explode-y on everything and that's just messy.]

[darkevangel]

Surely you don't think so little of my skills. As if I'd ever allow myself to be tracked.

You should know better than that. [ She feels there should be... something else to brag about. She can't quite remember what, though. ]

[custodismundi]

[...he almost looks like he's waiting for it, too... but when it doesn't come, he merely takes the last bite of his sweet before brushing his hands off.]

It isn't a matter of skill. This world is festering with terrans possessing abilities we're unused to.

[either way, it wasn't a huge deal... this base was already in disrepair, after all...]

[darkevangel]

...I almost wish they would come here. It would give me something to do.

[ And a chance to show off.

In front of Alex.

She really needs to prove she's the better of the two. :/ ]
