Yes, Leon did occasionally take a day off. They were few and far between, but even he had had no intention of working 24/7. Since there was, for the moment at least, no impending crisis hanging over their heads, he could afford to take off an extra day or two here and there ( Read more... )

Breaks? What are breaks? Samus knew nothing of these so called periods of rest. She was a busy woman.

Her patrol happened to take her to this part of the city. She knew about the Drunken Dragon, but had always seen it rather empty unless some sort of social gathering was going on, which was obviously not the case at this moment. The light from inside caught her eye, and her interest was piqued. A short investigation to find out who was in there wouldn't hurt anyone. She opened the door and peaked her head in.

There weren't a whole lot of crew members in there, just a handful off people milling about. Including her own boss.

He tended to sit where he could watch all the entrances and exits so he noticed someone poking their head in. When he saw it was Samus, he raised his beer towards her a bit, a quiet 'Hey'.

Well, she hadn't really expected to see her boss there. She nodded in greeting before realizing she probably looked kind of stupid with her head only through the door. She stepped inside and made her way over to him.

"So you're not always working," there was almost a hint of amusement in her voice. Almost. Also what is hypocrisy? This is coming from the queen of workaholics.

"I usually am, but I'm trying this new thing today. It's called Re-lax-ing? I think," he stated, as if he had only learned the word moments ago. "They say its good for the soul."

He motioned to the seat next to him. "Care to try it for a little bit?"

And have a word he would.

Chris had gotten a lead on Leon from various people, and eventually had tracked him down here at the Drunken Dragon. He could only smirk and shake his head as he wandered in, eyes immediately scanning the room for a man he'd never actually seen in person, but had kept in contact with in various ways. Once Chris finally spotted him, he walked over and took a seat down next to him, not saying anything to him directly, just ordering a beer

The silence lingered on for a little bit. After about a minute, Leon was the first to finally break it.

"Redfield."

Well, it was more subtle than 'Sup dude, I'm the guy banging your little sister.'

A nod and a small smile was given to the bartender before the smile faded off his face as a swig was taken of the beer.

"Kennedy."

Chris didn't look at Leon, partly because he didn't know why him and his sister together angered him so bad... other than the fact that... well, that was his younger sister and the thought of anyone even laying a finger on her made him tense up. Maybe it was the fact they lied, or all the rumors he'd heard whenever Leon's name was even brought up.

"I'm gonna cut the bullshit, because you and I both know I'm not really here to sit back and rehash war stories."

Another drink--mainly to calm himself down. There was an exasperated sigh when he removed the bottle from his lips.

"I know you can take care of her, but I also know Claire and she's not the type to rely on someone to take care of her. I'm not exactly sure what she sees in you," a small shrug. "And honestly, I don't care to know why, but I'm not going to let anything happen to her, you understand?"

Well, let it never be said that Chris wasn't direct. "And here I was looking forward to sitting back and rehashing war stories," he stated, then took a swig of his beer.

"She's your sister," he continued, "you love her, and you'll keep looking out for her no matter what," he rephrased. "I understand, and I wouldn't expect anything less from you."

There was a bar. There was a bar on the crazy ship from hell, and Roy hadn't known about it. He was going to smack Dick in the head for this one. But after he got his ass nice and wasted. If it were possible, he was still a bit hesitant about this whole bar, but he'd give it a shot. He had been in worse places before.

He smiled as he looked around the place. It seemed like a pretty okay place, and the mood was anything but unfriendly. So he made his way to the bar and took a seat next to one of the men there. He ordered himself a beer and then spun on his stool to face the rest of the bar.

"Not going to have to worry about bar fights here am I?" His voice was light, but he could use a good bar fight.

"Only during combat training," Leon stated. If he was joking, he didn't seem to show it. "Outside of that, it's usually quiet here."

Roy let out a loud sigh as he took his beer. "Well that's good." It wasn't. But he wasn't going to voice it out loud. Maybe later he'd track down Dick and force him into a fight, or something.

"Yeah. Besides, you really don't want to piss off the owner." Or the Chief of Security, for that matter.

Claire'd checked the bar out a few times before, but she was more of a social drinker than the 'drink on your own' kind of person, so there'd never been much lingering.

Still, today she poked her head in, having it on good authority that her boyfriend was hiding somewhere in here. When she spotted him she did her best to creep up behind him (not that Claire was particularly good at sneaking so he probably heard her coming) and slid her hands over his eyes from behind. If that didn't give her away nothing would, because who else would dare sneak up behind the Chief of Security and cover their eyes?

She lowered her voice all the same, trying not to smile too much.

"Guess who."

Yes, Leon knew exactly who it was. Which, of course, meant that he had to behave kind of like an idiot.

"Now, Luis, I told you never to do things like this in public. What if someone sees us?"

She'd expected some kind of ridiculous comment, but that got her to laugh as she pulled away and sat down next to him, attempting to look scandalized and failing miserably.

"I can't believe you're cheating on me with Luis of all people."

"I'm sorry, sweetheart," he stated with mock sincerity. "But we had this one night in Spain, there were handcuffs involved, and I couldn't let those feelings go."
