@V0SSNEWS “You weren’t. Plus, i knocked you the fuck out. Being curious is justified just this once.”
[ He laughed, putting his hands behind his head with a relaxed sigh - his eyes fluttering shut soon after. The room was mostly quiet, a buzzing coming from outside.]
@V0SSNEWS “Right,. that’s what i thought. I oughta try, too..”
[ He grumbled- slowly sitting down on the (also) makeshift bed opposite to Elias, or the one he usually sleeps on, laying his head back and almost immediately relaxing.]
“I - uh.. you don’t have any more questions?”
@V0SSNEWS “Somehow - a guy named Elias Voss was able to find out a lot of stuff about me, and covered it up by being a journalist. That’s you. You’re elias. I don’t have the wrong guy, i told you to meet me for a fight. Believe it, don’t believe it, i don’t give a shit.”

@V0SSNEWS “Well, i care about you. In the sense that i don’t want someone dying on my conciousness.”
[ The grin is still plastered on his face - not faltering. ]
“Plus, i like.. think you were stalking me before this, so.. Awh man. Don’t get all sad on me now.”
@V0SSNEWS “I dunno! If your memories come back or somethin! Besides, it’s not my problem! I don’t care for you either way!”
[ He shrugs, with a careless grin. ]
“They have real doctors, so if you die or something i’m sure they’ll revive you.. probably. I dunno, and i don’t care.”
@V0SSNEWS “It raises too many questions. I am bringing you back to the city the second you feel even the slightest bit better.”
[ He hissed. ]
“Oh, it’s fine. I’ll have to just stitch it up later. Plus, it’s deserved. I gave you amnesia.”
@V0SSNEWS “I am not doing that.”
[ He quickly shot back.]
“Besides - you’re going back to BL/IND the second you recover.”
[ He snorts at that, slowly lifting his pant leg to show the pen wound.]
“Is that harmless? I didn’t think so… You did that.”
@V0SSNEWS “If that’s how you see it, sure. I’m looking out for myself. I dunno how i’d explain you being here.”
[ He said through gritted teeth, pointing a finger at the other.]
@V0SSNEWS “Maybe - probably. I oughta make sure you won’t run off.”
[ He said, beginning to pacearound the small room. ]
“It’s cause - uh, your head injury was too bad. I can’t have you walking in the zones like that.”
@V0SSNEWS [ He crosses his arms with a grunt.]
“Yes- i live here. No, i don’t know when they’re coming back. I expect you to be as quiet as you can when they come back.
- This is my room.”
[ LD hisses, looking down at the boy and seeing him look around the small room.]
@V0SSNEWS “You better be - and if you aren’t, i’ll beat you up so hard you’ll remember who i am.”
[ He huffed, sticking his nose up in disgust as he dragged the boy through the zones - eventually slipping his way back into base, making a small ‘bed’ on the floor.]
“There.”
@V0SSNEWS “… Fine.”
[ He sighed, begrudgingly helping the other up. ]
“I’ll take you back to my place. My gang can /not/ see you-! I’ll be in so much trouble. God- i cannot believe this.”
[ He muttered, narrowing his eyes.]
@V0SSNEWS “N- no way! I’m a killjoy and you’re an employee from the company i’m trying to fight! I can’t help you!”
[ He said- almost offended at the question. Quickly having to remind himself that this was someone with a head injury and wasn’t thinking right. +
