The day they met…
(OOC Note: if quote text is italic and bold, it’s present day scientist talking. Also- I will leave this open for reblogs I guess, as it’s starting from only scientist’s POV, they won’t meet until after the first reblog I or someone else does. Dunno how long after though.)
“Man…I can remember it like it was yesterday…”
A younger scientist- currently known Jack/Joel (both are part of his name), was speeding around on a motorcycle (imagine the FN rogue bike combined with a regular motorcycle and you have the general look), blasting old rock music as he drove. He was delivering pizzas and papers, and was on his way to the last stop, the local pilot academy/laboratory, when he decided to take a quick stop- mostly to refuel. Once he parked to refuel, he took his helmet off as he got off the bike- which somewhat resembled his helmet for his armor he has now.
“Alright…just gonna grab a quick snack from the store and continue. Don’t wanna be late for this delivery, considering i’ll be scolded, and then late for that thing I had scheduled with my friends…”
Heading inside the refuel station (sci-fi fuel thing where gasoline isn’t used anymore), he’d head up to the counter, paying for both a snack bar he grabbed, as well as to refuel his bike. Once that was taken care of, and his bike was refueled, he was back on his way. While heading towards the last delivery stop, he sang along to the song he was listening to while driving.
“I see a red door and I want it painted black…no colors anymore, I want them to turn black…I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes! I have to turn my head- until my darkness goes!”
