You have to enjoy your job somehow

[sexygodofscienceandwar]

[It's a quiet night, and Roads is in the hangar, working alongside some kind of giant, robot-scale sword. There are tons of computers lying around, and everyone's favorite mad scientist is dashing back and forth between them, muttering to himself. ]

Yes...yes, just a little bit more...

Red to red, blue to blue, yellow to yellow...

[Finally, he takes a deep breath, and walks over to where two extension cords are lying on the ground.]

Alright...With this, WE STEP FORWARD INTO HISTORY!

[He slams the two cords together! Sparks ignite, and the sword gains a new, golden edge around its normal form. Somewhere in the distance, there's a flash of lightning.]

It worked...it worked! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! NOW, NOTHING CAN STOP ME!!

Does that mean I should start calling you Mr. Roads from now on? But that's so intimate already.

[sexygodofscienceandwar]

Uh, my last name's Blackwell...you can just call me Roads, like everyone else.

[She's acting kind of weird...]

[gudbye_despair]

You always looks so cool when you're sciencing, Mr. Roads.

(I know that because I'm always watching you...)

[sexygodofscienceandwar]

Oh, uh, thanks!

...What was that second part?

[gudbye_despair]

You must be thirsty. I brought you a drink.

(She hands you a bottle of water with one hand, still not looking at you in the eyes.)

[sexygodofscienceandwar]

Oh, thanks.

[He'll take a swig.]

...Uh, are you feeling alright? You've been acting kind of odd...

[gudbye_despair]

Odd? Ahaha, why do you say that? I'm perfectly normal.

*She takes the bottle of water from your hand and put it into a plastic bag before sealing it.*
