"That's...your heavy equipment? He's just a single guy."
He scratches his head, still confused.

Fallout 2? More like Fallout 2 bad.Gina just smiles back at Nirthen.
"Well, in that case, I guess you wouldn't mind... a kiss, then. Y'know, if you want one, that is."
"Getting kissed is alright," Nirthen reassures, smiling gently.
Creator of the Avatar Arena and its Discord server.@Syme: What happened to Nirthen liking Wanda?
"Heh, okay... Hope you're ready for this, then..."
Gina leans in closer to Nirthen, then kisses him on the lips.
Duncan drops the large box he was carrying and cracks his neck. "Huh. Well, here I am, I guess." He says to no one in particular. At hearing Mike's voice he instantly looks in his direction. "Mike!" He smiles, a lot more eagerly and against his better judgment, scoops Mike up into a hug. "Missed you too..."
He looks at Gerard. "Hmm? Who's that? Hey there."
Old habits die hard, especially when no one else lets them die either.Ain make the man steps into a portal and approach Mike and Duncan.
"Greetings."
Fallout 2? More like Fallout 2 bad.@Aqueous: He's pretty much gotten over her, mainly since his best friend is her boyfriend and he'd rather have his best friend by his side than risk losing him. Inb4 Alderoth/Nirthen.
Nirthen kisses Gina back, and, after he finishes the kiss, he's breathing a bit heavily.

Creator of the Avatar Arena and its Discord server.Mike kisses Duncan as he's lifted up. "How've you been? How's Byron?"
Once he's put down, he turns back to Gerard. "Ah, that's just the start. Tip of the iceberg, so to say."
Gina smiles wryly at Nirthen, giggling a little.
"Oh, don't tell me you're that exhausted from just one kiss, Nirthen."

Somewhere in the Arena...
Nathan suddenly lifts his head, looking around.
"I sense a disturbance in the cosmos..."
He then gets back to performing surgery...on a Belgian waffle.
Gerard raises his eyebrow higher.
"Well, still don't get it."
He looks at Duncan, nodding in greeting.
"Gerard Redcliffe, at your service."
"Well, it's my first time kissing someone..."
I need to get some sleep for now, and I'll continue this scene once I get back.
Also, for the sake of hilarity, I wanna write Ho Yay moments between Alderoth and Nirthen.

"I've been ok. I've started my nootropics therapy again, so...there's something. By's doin' good, too." He nods. "We really missed you...I hope he doesn't take to long on getting here."
He nods to Gerard. "Nice to meet ya, man. You a friend of Mike's?"
He then looks at Ain. "Yo. Who you?"
Old habits die hard, especially when no one else lets them die either."I am Ain Tripadora... strange, you should know me."
Fallout 2? More like Fallout 2 bad."There are still plenty of others back there. I'm sure he's fine." Mike says to Duncan.
"Just watch." Mike levitates some parts, and they quickly attach themselves, forming a pair of flying drones.
For the record, Mike only has basic technopathy.
He then turns to Ain. "What do you mean?"

"Huh, I suppose we're friends. Nice ta meet ya Duncan. But I gotta get back to business. Ciao."
He walks off, vanishing around the corner.
"I met you before."
Fallout 2? More like Fallout 2 bad."Yeah, good point." He says, that seeming to make him feel.a.bit better.about it.
He looks back at Gerard. "Right then. Seeya round." He says giving a wave, then looks at Ain upon hearing what she says. "I should? Uh...sorry. Not ringin' any bells for me. This is the first time I been here." He answers then gives Mike a side glance. "...This ain't some old girlfriend you neglected to mention, is it?"
Old habits die hard, especially when no one else lets them die either."Alternate me, huh? Seems like that's what everyone's talking about." He says to Ain.
Mike gives Duncan an 'are you serious?' glance.
"I do not frequent men... or women."
"Yes, there is an alternate you. Or was. Not my problem anyway."
Fallout 2? More like Fallout 2 bad."What? I coulda asked you somethin' way more graphic." He says with a shrug. And the places a hand on Mike's head and ruffles his hair playfully. "Sorry."
"Alternate of him? I guess there was one of me too. Hmm...sounds like somethin' right outta the multiple worlds theory." He muses.
Old habits die hard, especially when no one else lets them die either."Yeah, it does. And considering the nature of this place, it's all but certain. Interesting." Mike muses.
Mike puts one arm around Duncan in response. The drones start flying around.
"Anyways, what do you do here?" He asks Ain.

"I suppose so."
Nirthen smiles again.
"Well, even if I'm not in love with you, you're still a great friend, and I'd be more than happy to accompany you until the end!"
