Ambidexterity
God damn it. Lef- or well, shall we say “Dio”, really didn’t have time for this sort of bullshit. Sure, he didn’t really care if he died, but this was not the way he’d intended to do it. If he were to go during this mission, he needed it to be in a flash of fire and atomic dissonance, taking every last soul on this planet with him. Well, it’s not really a planet, now is it? Either way, he needed K to hurry the fuck up and get in the door.
❝ Hurry up for fucks sake! I’m literally dyin’ here! ❞ he yelled, clenching his fists and peering quickly out the doorway. Thankfully, K was making his way over to him, but at a pace too slow for his liking, ❝ Get a fucking move on! ❞
Just as the announcer signified the closing of the doors, the armor-clad man (presumably) slipped through the frame. A breath Dio didn’t know he’d been holding finally escaped, and he wiped the sweat off his forehead. A brief silence followed before K breathed out his name, or well, the name he claimed was his.
❝ What about me? Let’s get goin’. There’s definitely some sort of fuckin’ puzzle in there we gotta solve, and I’d rather get out before those dumbasses. ❞ His words were casual, as if nothing he’d said was even vaguely offensive, though he did admit holding a particular grudge against Sigma and Phi at the moment. Their tugging on K’s heartstrings did nearly cause him to die after all. His reasoning for wanting to get out first though, he was sure K wouldn’t have a problem deducing it. Who else would be the one to ensure the Ambidex Gates were opened before they needed to be?
What about you? K’s armor hid a wry expression. Quark, Tenmyouji and Clover have just… passed away, and your concern is turning this into a race? To complete puzzles?
“A relief to see that you are well.” His tone was flat. “I was afraid that Zero may have penalized you for speaking about your child.” An act of compassion upon Zero’s part, surely…
He walked slowly to the end of the hallway, and paused before the first door. “You said that you would explain, so please – by all means.”
