Working on being not-anemic. [he chuckles, shaking his head.] Chugging through the main project you gave me. And tracking down Newt was actually a pain in the ass.

[unbreachable]

[ He snorts a laugh. ]

Multitasking indeed. Good job.

[truckerhats]

Thanks. I try to get shit done.

[he smiles as he finishes off his soda.]

Anything else you need that I should add to my multitasking list?

[unbreachable]

[ Raleigh's not finishing that drink, bluh. ]

I dont think so. Pretty sure we've got you doing all we can, for now.

[truckerhats]

Sounds good. Let me know if you come up with anything else, dude.

[he nudges his glass away, then leans back in his seat.]

So...if you want, you can come poke your head in my workshop, get a look for yourself at what you guys are paying me for.

[unbreachable]

[ Raleigh nudges the drink away and focuses on Roy, frosted blue scanning over his frame. ]

Sure. I'd like that.

[truckerhats]

Then let's go.

[roy's grin is nothing short of delighted, and he pulls out his wallet to pay for the drinks before standing, preparing to lead the way back to his apartment.]

[unbreachable]

[ Well look at you being a gentleman and all that, paying for Raleigh's drink. You cutie. ]

You're the boss.

[ He smirks and follows after him, falling in step beside him once they're outside. ]

[truckerhats]

[he's totally a gentleman when he wants to be. all smooth and shit.]

Pretty sure you're technically my boss.

[he laughs easily, looking over at raleigh with a grin as he brings raleigh back to his building.]

[unbreachable]

[ are you hustling him, Roy? Because it's kind of hot if you are. ]

Suppose that's the case, but I find every so often people enjoy thinking that they are in control.

[truckerhats]

[roy blinks at raleigh, then just bursts out laughing again.]

Trust me, I have zero misconceptions on who's in control here.

[he knows that raleigh could snap him like a goddamn twig if that's what he wanted.]

[unbreachable]

[ Raleigh could do a variety of things to Roy if he chose - he just...doesn't.

He's better than that. Better than his kind that do abuse their power. ]

Still. Feeling helpless isn't a thing anyone enjoys.

[truckerhats]

That's true. It helps that you don't actually make me feel that way.

[he shrugs, lacing his fingers together and folding them behind his head as they walk.]

I just also happen to realize that you're a hell of a lot stronger than I am, and there's not much I can do about that.

[unbreachable]

Mm. Stronger, faster...I have more stamina, the list goes on.

[ He glances over at Roy. ]

You don't seem nervous around me, though.

[truckerhats]

Nah. Biters have never really tweaked me out.

[he looks over to meet raleigh's gaze with a soft grin.]

You're kinda just a fact of life these days. Besides, right now, I'm an asset. Sure, you could replace me, maybe find someone who could finish your guys' work, but he wouldn't be half as good as I am at what I do. Chau wanted to hire me because he knows I know my shit.

[unbreachable]

They should.

[ Holy fuck he -- he is cocky as shut and Raleigh bursts out laughing. ]

[truckerhats]

[roy's the best at what he does, honestly. he's fast, he's efficient, and he makes shit that works. people from all over the world hire him to do work for them, because he can do it.]

Man, that's the loudest I've heard you laugh yet.

[he's not even bothered by it, still just grinning from ear to ear.]

[unbreachable]

[ He's still chuckling. ]

I've never heard someone get so cocky around something like me.

[truckerhats]

["something" makes roy pause, but for the moment...he's not going to question raleigh's wording.]

I'm a pretty cocky guy. Part of my charm.

[he gives raleigh a teasing wink.]

[unbreachable]

I'm starting to notice that.

[ Raleigh grins at him, and slips his hands into his pockets. ]

Guess we picked well.

[truckerhats]

Yeah, looks like you did.

[he chuckles as he leads raleigh into the building and back up to his apartment. he lets them both inside, then gestures over to his hidden workshop.]

Everything's just tucked in here, man.

[unbreachable]

[ Raleigh shakes his head because wow yes cocky, and just follows after him with a grin still on his face.]

This is where I stayed.

[truckerhats]

Yep.

[roy presses a panel on the wall, then the entire wall just slides away to reveal the hidden workshop.]

Aaaaand on that table over there is Chau's product.

[he steps inside, gesturing over to his handiwork.]

[unbreachable]

Show me...?

[ coming in silently after him, curious despite himself. He hadn't had a chance to really get a look at things before. ]

[truckerhats]

[roy's lips quirk in a soft smile.]

Sure.

[he leads raleigh in, over to the table where the project sits. he explains what he's done so far, illustrating his points by lifting up the (rather heavy) device and turning it over and showing raleigh each detail.

his work is solid, thorough, and he's making good progress.]
