Well this is a fine mess you've gotten us all into

1. [Right after the whole island-extermination mission, you can find Roads sitting in the hangar, looking up at what's left of the Zweilicht. He's not looking so hot.]

2.[Later, Roads is doing a network post thing.]

You... did not exactly have a glorious past, did you sir Roads?

[First time the two talk for real, yet Alessandra already uses her unique ways of addressing people.]

[punches_vamps]

...No, not by a long shot. There were some moments, but...not many.

[fermionprincess]

I can neither condemn nor forgive you. It is not my place to do so.

But... you told the truth, horrible may it be. I appreciate that greatly.

[punches_vamps]

Well...I guess that's something.

"Hey..."

"You don't look good. What happened?"

Re: [1]

[punches_vamps]

[Takes it, drinks.]

Old friend showed up. Tried to kill me, went on about my not very stellar past.

...Also an island sunk and a bunch of people died, but eh, I don't know them.

[The moment Roads finishes his announcement and turns around, he'll find a psigun being pointed at his face.]

How... Just how much innocent blood there is on your hands, Roads?

Re: 2

[punches_vamps]

[Just gonna...push that psigun aside.]

...More than I can really count...

[mecha_eihwaz]

And why didn't you tell anyone...? Did you think you can keep it a secret forever?

It was totally unplanned that all those characters would drop, too

[punches_vamps]

That was the intention, yes.

...I'm not that good at keeping secrets, though. Loraine and Maya each got pieces of the story, and Aidan got the whole thing. Cheng too, but that was right after he left to go fix up Gucun, so I guess it doesn't really count.

[bottleofgundam]

Everyone's got stuff in their past they don't want as common knowledge. Glad I heard it from you rather than someone else.

[punches_vamps]

Yeah, well...This is only coming out now 'cause my old captain dragged it out.

...Why did you stop?

Re: 2

[punches_vamps]

...Hatred.

[emorangerpink]

Yours? Or of you?

[punches_vamps]

Of me.

The look in that girl's eyes was just...I couldn't pretend what we were doing was right after I saw it.
