Kitchen

[originalcopy]

Because Church actually has to eat now... unfortunately he doesn't really know how to cook. So he's just going to poke around for left overs and hope they aren't gross.

[whistles_the_blues]

Eating a meal eh church? Well you might hear the familiar thump of some robotic foot steps as Blues walks toward the kitchen. What do?

[originalcopy]

He's found some things to make a sandwich with and he's going to eat his sandwich, thank you very much. The robutt can just bugger off on his merry way. Besides, it's not like he's going to stop in the kitchen.

Plus, he's not waiting until he gets back to town to grab a quick bite to eat.

[whistles_the_blues]

And normally he would just walk by, but he catches sight of Church eating that sandwich in the corner of his eye and actually stops. Is he actually that dumb that he'd mess up his circuits by eating a sandwich, but when noting happens. He just stares for a moment.

[originalcopy]

Just what he needs, that jackass staring at him while he eats. Church tries to ignore him but can't... he raises an eyebrow.

"Whabt?"

And yes, he is talking with his mouth full... classy.

[whistles_the_blues]

...You know, Blues isn't really surprised about that. Manners are the last thing he expects from Church, heck he's surprised he could actually do laundry.

"Didn't know you could do that, that's all."

[originalcopy]

Pfft... he just doesn't like you, so why bother with manners. As for laundry, the instructions are written on the machine... so there.

"Eat a sandwich? Yeah, why shouldn't I be able to eat a sandwich? I'm hungry."

Duh.

Town

[pint_sized_carnivore]

Chie was just roaming around town again and saw a familiar face, who looks a little different than normal... She tilted her head as she tried to figure out what is up with this guy this time...

"Yo! Where's your armor? Not feeling like wearing today, huh?"

[originalcopy]

Church for his part was perfectly content to ignore Chie and continue on his way. But no, she had to actually talk to him.

"Huh? Well no, I mean it's not like I have to wear it everyday."

Not anymore, not since he got the body Harper built him. He frowns slightly, crap what this chicks name?

[pint_sized_carnivore]

Well you seem to wear it everyday. I even thought sleep in it.

[originalcopy]

"Yeah, because that would be really fucking comfortable."

He rolls his eyes.

"I usually wear it around the Castle, if I plan on being out for any length of time."

[pint_sized_carnivore]

"Right, yeah. What's up with you though? You seem different, besides not wearing your turtle shell"

[originalcopy]

"What do you mean?"

He gives her a skeptical look. Ok so he was in a better mood than usual... but he didn't think he looked any different. Did he?

Sometimes people can just be walking through the hallways minding their own business when something totally random happens and throws off their entire day.

Today, that something happens to be a little girl, looking no more than five years old (and small for her age at that), rounding a corner at the exact same time as Church from a completely different angle.

The results are predictable, ending with the small girl collapsed on the floor, gently rubbing her smarting backside.

"Owwww~!"

She frowns and looks up at the offending human tower, intending to give him a piece of her mind, when a flash of recognition sparked in her eyes. He looks kind of like...

"... Church-san?"

[originalcopy]

"Oh! Shit, sorry."

Church winces and looks down at the little kid he almost flattened. There's something oddly familiar about her...

"Rise?"

He frowns and takes a step back. Seriously? Is she just going to be younger every time he meets her?

[therealrisette]

They'd both better hope not, or else he'll end up with a baby Rise in a basket on his doorstep next.

Rise pulls herself back to her feet, kind of surprised that Church recognizes her! Most people get thrown off by her wearing her hair down and the cutesy little yellow-orange jumper. She's not quite sure how to deal with this...

"Ah! Um..."

She blushes and her eyes lower a bit. "Y-yeah..."

[originalcopy]

Well, it seemed like a safe guess as she's the only one who calls him 'Church-san'.

"What the hell?"

He scowls then realizes that he's being rude, clears his throat and tries again with less asshole.

"You alright?"

Seeing as he did kind of plow into you and send to the floor. He shrugs and looks around awkwardly... no one else saw that right?

/thread necromancy

[therealrisette]

"Yeah, I'm fine..."

She actually does look a bit hurt by the fall, but it's nothing too bad. It probably won't even leave a bruise. Right now, she's more annoyed over just being this small...

spooky

[originalcopy]

"Well, next time watch where you're going alright."

Because clearly that's the best way to cover up feeling awkward and guilty for running into her.

[solowingpixy]

Hey Church, remember that asshole who went absolutely crazy on you and tried to kill you two different ways a month ago?

That very same asshole was hobbling in the second floor hallway with a crutch, keeping off his right leg as best he can. Sure, he shouldn't have been out wandering around in the first place, but if a guy could get cabin fever in a castle, there was no way he wasn't going to go stir-crazy after staying in a clinic for so long. At least his impromptu five day nap at the beginning of the month helped with that, even if he had a rude awakening.

Speaking of rude, Pixy's either ignoring Church's presence (and everyone else, for that matter) or he just hasn't noticed him yet. It was probably more the latter, given how distant he looked.

[originalcopy]

Seeing Pix sends Church's skin crawling for a moment as he pushes back memories from the Event Horizon. It's long over, no sense in thinking about it, it's just the way things are. He clears his throat, here goes something.

"Hey man, how's your shoulder?"

See, no hard feelings. Everything's totally cool.

[solowingpixy]

Pixy jumps slightly when he hears Church's voice, tensing up immensely as he looked over at the other man. He stares for a moment, not entirely sure how to answer the first guy he tried to kill on that god forsaken ship. Though if nothing else, the fact he started a conversation instead of walking over and punching him (or worse) was a good sign. Were people here always willing to let things like that go?

He forces a smug front again, giving a faint laugh. He still looks tense as hell though.

"It's healing up. The cut's probably gone by now. I just gotta wait for a few other wounds to heal."

Like... that gunshot would in the same shoulder. He winces then, that front of his falling.

"What about your neck?"

[originalcopy]

Church absently rubs at his neck, he can't explain that he was essentially stab proof without bringing up the whole 'ghost' thing.

"It's fine. Left a small hole in my undersuit but that was easy to patch up."

Honestly, after what happened, he almost wishes that Pixy could have killed him. He would gladly take a week of oblivion over the torment of the next couple of days... and the lingering effects thereafter.

[solowingpixy]

Pixy had similar sentiments. Had he been killed, potentially during his firefight with Bond, then not only would he have been spared of most of the lingering feelings but he also would have been able to avoid hurting anyone. And two lives could have been spared.

Pixy would manage to get a smirk to his face again.

"Guess that armor's better than I thought. At least it didn't do anything worse than that."

He was kind of relieved about that, at least in the regard that was one less person he did any harm to. Of course, those words are probably the closest Pixy would get to giving an apology. Apologizing just wasn't really his thing. Plus, well, how exactly do you word 'Hey I'm sorry for trying to kill you'?

[originalcopy]

"Yeah well... next time you get the urge to kill me. Remind me to just let you do it. I could use the vacation."

He at least tries to keep the tone light. Ha Ha. Granted by this point he's pretty used to being 'killed' so it's fairly easy to make light of.
