[First thing he's gonna hit up, man. A stale Dorito is a Dorito nonetheless. Slam back some hard punch and it's nothin'.

Bro's costume is what he's going to call "an anime vampire" to avoid potential fourthwalling, and he leans against the counter, sipping his drink and scoping out da hottiez. AKA pretty much everyone. Nice turnout so far.]

[deceptive_lulz]

[Oh hey, it's her favorite person to stalk! And also the only other person that seemed to be going through that punch like it was water...interesting. Maybe he really did have something in his body.

Regardless, of course she was going to make a point to go see him. Noting his posture from a distance, she made her way over to him, mimicking his position. Sup, you've got a sexy octopus next to you.]

Heehee -- hey, you.

[Oh hey, he's not wearing a shirt. She'll try not to stare too hard. She'd stare at any man not wearing a shirt, okay. Instead, she'll take a sip from her own drink.]

Drinking that awfully quickly, aren't we?

[illinest]

[That suit he's seen her wearing is revealing in its own way, not leaving much to the imagination. But what she's got on now is even better.]

'Sup.

[You checking him out? Bro raises an eyebrow and gives her a smirk. Looks her up and down, too. She might be a little strange and unconventional, but he doesn't care. Strange and unconventional is cool.]

This shit is filtered water to my pure environmentalist mouth.

[deceptive_lulz]

[She might be. Just a little. Either way, if she noticed him checking her out, she really didn't seem to mind. Hell, if he was looking, then she didn't feel as much need to try to mask her own glances.]

You too?

[It might sound like she was relating to the metaphor...but that was almost quite literally how her nanomachines worked. She gave a crooked smirk of her own, looking back up to him.]

I never thought you as an environmentalist though, heheh!

[Or pure either. Half of the conversations between those two wound up having to do with dicks.]

[illinest]

[Back on the subject of unconventionalism and the amount this lady has - Bro doesn't normally explain his sarcasm or jokes. They're subtle and add to all his irony and mystery. But hey, it's a fucking party and she isn't irritating him, so he just shrugs.]

Nah, jus' playin'.

[He nods at her costume.]

What're you, some kinda sexy tentacle monster? Gonna start feeling up all the chicks' pleated skirts?

[deceptive_lulz]

Oh?

[She rose a curious brow at him. Why was he downing those drinks so fast then? Perhaps he built some sort of immunity to alcohol? Whatever the reason was, she didn't dwell on it too long, because feeling chick's pleated skirts up what? You're the unconventional one here, Bro.]

Something of the sort, I suppose. Haha... [She took another long sip of her drink, thinking about it.] It's not women I feel up though.

[No, just men she was trying to kill, mostly. But moving on...]

What are you? [Her eyes scanned over the costume again, though she was actually trying to identify it this time.] I'm afraid I don't recognize it.

[illinest]

So you don't bat for both teams.

[Too bad.

She's totally hitting on him though.

Right?]

Anime vampire.

[Bro says it like she should just know what that is. Like she can't possibly be from some world where anime doesn't exist. Or even vampires. No, everyone must understand what he means when he says "anime vampire". Intrinsic goddamn knowledge, here.]

[deceptive_lulz]

[Even if she was unfamiliar with the expression, it wasn't too hard for her to figure out.]

Probably not. [Or at least she liked the male body far more than a female one. Curiously, she tilted her head, trying to envision what kind of scenario Bro was thinking of here.] Do sexy tentacle girls typically - ah - "bat for both" in your movies? Heeheehee?

[The most shocking thing though was that one of her superiors was named Vamp...and she stalked enough of Otacon's conversations to hear him reference anime at least once. In other words, she actually sort of had an idea of what that term meant. Even if it was truly a vague understanding.

Vamp went shirtless too, so she wouldn't even question it...even if Vamp was a huge asshole that threw daggers at her.]

I guess that makes sense. [Said in a totally unironic way too.] Heeheehee...didn't know there were vampires in anime though.

[Or know anything about anime at all.]

[illinest]

Yep. They're all about the ladies and their unrealistic anime genitalia too.

[Tossing back his drink some more. He's got it in a plastic cup but he's treating it like a shot glass. Dude's got some wicked tolerance.]

Damn straight. Flouncin' around like the smuggest pricks. You're expecting them to drive up in a legion of Prisues and bust out the organic Starbucks for everyone wearin' a homemade scarf.

Except -- [He motions to himself.] mine isn't anythin' like that. Naw, he like. Decapitates baristas and helps destroy the rainforest or something.

[Stroking his hand down his own chest for effect. Yeah. The alcohol's taking a bit of an effect, maybe.]

[deceptive_lulz]

[Unrealistic genitalia, huh? A slow, mischievous grin spread through her lips -- this was too good to pass up. And really, it was inevitable that the conversation would make this direction anyway.]

Is that why you have a fascination with dicks? Teehee

LB is the best

[illinest]

[And he's completely unaware of all those beautiful thought processes in her head.

He just tips his shades and gives her an obvious, insanely ironic wink.]

Maybe you 'n me could get to destroyin' 'em together.

Chop down trees, piss off Al Gore, profit.

Only Bro can inspire such beautiful thought processes... 1/2

[deceptive_lulz]

[And that catches her completely off-guard. Whether it was his intention or not, suggesting to do random acts of violence with her without it being a necessity or order was something like proposing to a normal person.]

[deceptive_lulz]

[...but hey, he might just be joking too. Regardless, she still gave a bit of a flustered smile.]

Is he some sort of "tool", haha?

[He never become vice-president in her world, okay. She can only assume.]

[illinest]

Fattest tool in the shed.

[sip.]

[deceptive_lulz]

Heehee! Then I guess it'd be all right if it pissed him off!

[She took a long sip of her own, giving him another sly glance.]

Name the time and I'll be there.

[Even if she was...pretty sure he was joking around, she'll go along with it.]

[illinest]

Once I sober up. Can't go about destroyin' the ecosystem in this state. Wouldn't be responsible, homie.

[Sly glance? Have one back.]
