It’s not often you see such a handsome man, but I’ll make sure I’m much more subtle next time. -smiles-
“Wow, finally someone who admits that they were checking me out.” Thiago smiled. “Thank you, though, for the compliment.” he practically lived off of them. “You’re not too bad looking yourself, stranger.”
“I couldn’t have possibly–say, been looking at the building behind you? I’m fairly certain there’s a loot there, you know. If I was going to check you out, you bet your ass you would’ve not caught me doing it.”
Thiago glanced behind them. “Sure there’re buildings but I look better than they do. And you’d be weird if that’s what you were staring at. But sure, I’ll pretend I believe you so you’ll feel better.” he replied, “I know the truth, though.”
“You’re awfully full of yourself if you think I was looking at you.”
“Yes I am full of myself, but I just call it like I see it.”
“There, there, you never minded it before…”
“I don’t necessarily mind now.. I just would’ve thought you would’ve been better at being sneaky about it at this point.”
“I was doing no such thing.”
“You sure about that?” Thiago replied. “It’s okay to tell the truth, no shame in it.” he chuckled.
“I would say it was more of observing you, and trying to figure out what you’re doing back here. The hospital wing is supposed to be secluded.”
“With the apocalypse and all I didn’t think there were such rules anymore.”
“If you’re going to check me out, at least be less obvious about it...or don’t I guess. Up to you.”
“Do not scare me like that. You are going to a girl a heart attack.”
“Oh, so no heart attack? That’s unfortunate.”
"To be honest, I expected a bigger fight. I’ve never bee this bored and I’ve been in a cage for centuries."
"You'll end up drinking the bar dry if you keep it up."
"Oh. Well then I’m very sorry you look so old, dude." Ricky said sincerely. "I’m not sure about rugged. It definitely does something? Yeah! I promise if you give me pointers, then I’ll be more careful next time. I don’t want any innocent person getting hurt, after all."
"I don't look old." Thiago mumbled, glancing away briefly. He looked back at him and nodded. "Well, then. Give me the gun." he held his hand out.
Roi cursed loudly, shifting his weight onto his other leg and only just managing to stay upright by gripping the wall with his free hand. Getting shot hurt. A lot. It dawned on him now how stupid he’d been to provoke Thiago in the first place, but he couldn’t give up now. “I-I won’t let you just kill me,” Roi managed, eyes wide. But he couldn’t reach him without moving forwards, something he sure as hell would not be able to do without causing himself a lot more pain. His sword arm trembled and he cursed his own weakness. All that training with Fia, and now he was useless. “What, you’re just gonna shoot me?” he goaded, trying to buy himself time. If he remembered rightly, there were only a couple of bullets left, maybe only one if he was really lucky. “That’s not very angelic, is it?”
"Maybe not. But it seems to be very human to jump people, threaten them with a gun. So, you're getting what you deserve." Thiago said, lifting the gun again. "I could shoot you again, yeah. I could also just let you fucking suffer. Maybe let you off with a warning." He wasn't in the best move. The humans were getting bolder and it was pissing him off. Roi was no exception. "Cause, I don't know. Unless you get that checked out, you'll keep bleeding till you bleed all the way out. Trying to nail me with that sword...?" Thiago said, motioning to it with his gun hand. "It'll only make it worse. A quicker death for you. My works done, kid."
"And let you kill me? No thanks." Roi weighed up his options. It was clear that the gun wouldn’t work, but he wasn’t so sure he was up for close combat with such an opponent. Still, better to go down fighting. "I know this won’t kill you"—he flicked the safety back on and reholstered the gun—"but this will. Permanently." He brought up the blade so the tip was aimed at Thiago’s chest, glad to see it wasn’t trembling in the slightest. "So back off, and I won’t kill you."
Thiago looked at the man and smiled. He didn't seem to have thought anything through. "You will kill me, eh?" he cocked his head to the side. "That's funny." Thiago snatched the gun out of his hand, and it immediately went off. First at the ground, and then he took a shot at Roi's thigh, hitting the mark. "I seriously doubt that." he said and took a step back, out of reach.
"Yeah? Aren’t you? I mean, you’ve got the whole angry facial hair thing working for you, dude. There’s nothing wrong with being old though, you don’t have to be embarrassed." He shrugged casually. "If you know how to use a gun, then you should give me some pointers instead of a lecture, gramps."
"No of course I'm not fourty. Not even close." Thiago was older than that obviously, but the vessel he'd taken was definitely twenty years younger than that. "I think I look very youthful the beard just makes me, I dunno, rugged? Whatever." he huffed. "And if I gave you these pointers, you'd put them to use and stop jumping people with weapons?"
Roi gulped. That settled it — this guy was either an angel or a demon, and neither sounded particularly good. With his other hand, he gripped the hilt of the angel blade Fia had given him. “Yeah, well at least it’ll distract you long enough for me to get free,” he said confidently, hoping he wasn’t overestimating his abilities.
Thiago glaced down at his hip, and seeing Roi with the blade pissed him off. His eyes narrowed even more. Plus, how did Roi manage to handle both a gun and a blade at the same time? That was definitely the boys weakness. And this made Thiago smiled. "No, that won't work either." he said, "You're stuck." Handling both weapons would get him off balance. "Give up."
"I said I’m trying! I haven’t used a gun much before and I’ve just started training. It’s not like I was in the army before all of this." The boy grumbled. "I’ll get better and I’ll put down those feathered assholes soon, you’ll see. I’m sorry I’m not 40 or whatever you are, geez."
"Well...tip, you shouldn't use a gun until youre sure how to use it. That's how you get killed." Thiago told him. Back when he was young, before all of the war craziness and before he'd died, he'd trained on the spot. In the mob, they didnt exactly do target practice all the time. But that was a different time. Now people had the opportunity to do that. "Yeah, I'll be waiting for that moment." he replied. At Ricky's next words, he looked offended, "Fourty? You think I look fourty?"
"I would but…I don’t have your number." she walk past him, taking a seat at a desk nearby. "And by giving shit back, create tension. I kind of enjoy that. If it’s done right of course." she smiled, tilting her head as she gave him a better look. "Mhm…cute enough."
"Hand over your phone then. I'll put it in." Thiago suggested. It was a new thing for Thiago, actually keeping up contact with people. He walked over and took a seat on the edge of the desk, looking down at her as she spoke. "You enjoy tension..All kinds of tension or only a certain tyoe?" he asked, raising his eyebrows a little bit. "You cant take that back now."
The boy scowled and dusted himself off, putting the gun away. “You could have just said that at the start, you know. And I’m not a kid. So I’m a little new at this, it doesn’t mean I won’t get better. Everyone has to start somewhere.”
"No, I couldn't have. I'm not the type to cower and yell 'Don't Shoot'. I'm more of the 'attack me and I'll choke your ass out' kind of guy. Ya understand." Thiago crossed his arms over his chest. "You're a kid to me. Maybe everyone has to start somewhere but you really have to get on top of your game."
