Lukas ducked his head and laughed softly.
“Well… in all honesty I had a pretty shitty day at work. Thought I’d try and do some good for once.”
He refused to look at his hands. Despite their clean state, he was sure all he’d be able to see is blood. Would probably until he was either blackout drunk or found something new and crucial to distract his time.
Casting a grin at the man, Lukas waved down the bartender to give him whatever he liked on the Swede’s tab.
“I’m Lukas,” he said, pausing for a sip of his whiskey, “by the way.”
when the bartender approached , will ordered only a beer . that was all he was feeling for now , despite the fact that he wasn't quite ON CALL yet . truth be told , having the damned thing around his wrist ( not a watch : more like a tracking device ) kind of DISTURBED HIM , as though the would be able to hear what he was up to , too . and if they listened in while he was a little too tipsy or drunk , who knew what they'd do ?
as long as he didn't give away ANY OF THEIR SECRETS , he was golden . didn't know if he'd be able to , though . he'd play it safe with the beer .
❛ lukas , huh ? you look like a lukas . ❜ he grinned like it was the FUNNIEST JOKE ON EARTH . ❛ well, since we're exchanging names - i'm will . ❜

turning on her heels, eyes focus on the male entering her lab seeing as he had taken a INTEREST in all of the gadgets & machines she had stalled away in areas around & in her lab. he seemed to be a intellectual, intrigued with the NOTION of anything & everything scientific. melanie had taken the liberty to take a small PEAK into his file, read whatever she could before meeting him to avoid getting anything WRONG or assuming to much at once. keeping her smile, hands are clasped in one another in front of her as heeled feet take a few, leisurely steps ahead. ‘ yes, ‘ she’d answered swiftly, ‘ in the FLESH anyways, not so much in the SOUL. ‘ this amused her, waiting to see how LONG it would take mr. porter to figure out WHAT SHE WAS. glowing eyes flicker upward toward him, stalling in her movements. ‘ welcome to my lab here at alterplex. ’ there she stands, the image of a young women around the age of seventeen years old. she’d dressed casually, while her expression holds a sense of niceness, trustworthy – when you look at melanie ( madelaine ) you feel as if you can approach her. LOOKS ARE DECEIVING.
he was so caught up with looking at all of the FASCINATING TECHNOLOGY around him ( not that it was unfamiliar to him - there were lots of things he'd encountered and had to work with during his years at NASA , but there were a few things he wasn't yet FAMILIAR with , and much of the tech in here was stuff he'd seen around but never touched before in his life . bad thing ? maybe not ) that melanie's answer , only a FEW SECONDS after he'd spoken himself , startled him . he blinked quickly , looking towards her . she looked really young . he wasn't good at judging ages , but this was something he couldn't go wrong about . she hardly looked old enough to be RUNNING A LAB , and if he were some motormouth , he would've said something about it : didn't say a word . he only smiled with pursed lips . ❛ thanks . ❜ he felt a certain calm , and stepped forward in agreement with it . must just be his instincts. ❛ this is YOUR LAB ? ❜

she was far, far out of her league there – big business corporations and the top scientists and people who really knew what they were talking about. but avoiding such an invitation would have brought worse attention, so amiat wore her trademark versace and diamonds, and stayed out of any and all pictures. and she had been doing quite well when a rather inebriated gentlemen came her way.
“ hello– ” her greeting was cut off by his face leaning in, but instead of snapping at his lack of respect for boundaries, she simply laughed. “ that’s not a greeting I’ve seen before. what’s your name, sweetie? ” // ♕ @alterplex from here
he was drunk enough that he couldn't hold his tongue against EVERYTHING he was saying , but not drunk enough that he was stupid . maybe just a little bit stupid , but not stupid enough that he couldn’t eventually ( if he tried REALLY , REALLY HARD ) stop his thoughts from cascading out . ❛ my name ? my name is will porter . technically william , but you can call me will . i’m here with a few of the ALTERPLEX STAFF . ❜ but they were somewhere on the other end of the room , last he’d checked - or maybe they’d scattered by now .
didn’t matter that much to him right now . it had been hours since the gathering had begun , and it was slowly beginning to LOOSEN : people were beginning to leave by now . he kept to himself , though - except for this woman . ❛ so … now that you know MINE , what’s yours ? ❜

“Oh is that how it’s going to be? First you’re late then you’re gonna fall asleep on me?” lips thin for a moment in jest, her head nods in understanding. “I’m beginning to see this as a very one sided thing.” there’s a chuckle as she takes a step forward towards him. “Well I’ll warn you, Mister Porter–If you fall asleep, I will draw on your face. I’m sorry–I don’t make the rules here.”
❛ i said i MIGHT fall asleep on you . not that i’m GONNA fall asleep on you . that’s a crucial difference , and crucial differences can be very important . ❜ he spoke that sternly , but it was with MIRTH glistening in his eye that he watched her , and it spread onto his face a moment later in a smile . he hid that quick enough to take a sip of the drink . a pause … then a HUM. ❛ hmm . you have it right , miss stacy . this time . ❜

her back is turned away from the entrance to the lab, hands moving at a quick pace & automatically as she, once again, had been in putting some new information. her head is focused AHEAD, ears only tuned to the soft music that played day ‘round in her lab space. only does she STOP when she hears the familiar sound of glass doors sliding open & then closing gently behind. ‘ i see you’ve come with OUR GUEST, ‘ called a velvet, smooth voice without turning around, mind still focusing on the task asked of her. ‘ about time, i was worried something might have happened. ‘ there’s a small laugh that leaves her lips as hands place the pad down against the table in front of her & the music is silenced. ‘ welcome, william. ‘ melanie says, turning around with a soft SMILE.
@alterplex
this was a big , wide room . not that he wasn’t used to being in wide rooms and LABORATORIES and … whatnot . he couldn’t stop his gaze from straying all over the place . there were gadgets and machinery everywhere , and ALL HE WANTED TO DO was to look at all of it ; to see what went on with all of it . it intrigued him - probably more than it should . in spite of it , he was also feeling uneasy ( that was what made him look back toward the woman who spoke ) . she didn’t exactly seem to be in the same AGE RANGE as the rest of - well , his corporation , anyways . actually , she looked quite young . his brow lifted at that : more in alarm than anything . ❛ yeah . hi . uh … ❜ she was smiling , but he had CONFUSION in his eyes . ❛ are you melanie ? ❜

❛ th’ same could be asked of YOU, don’t ya think ? ❜ voice is slurred & weighted with fatigue : she doesn’t care to sleep ; doesn’t like it when the NIGHTMARES set in , vivid & CRUSHING . nevertheless, she curls into his warmth , face pressed into his stomach & arms already twined ‘round his waist . cherry was already grabbing a blanket , BLESS HER CIRCUITS —- all her other robots already powered off for the night after MAINTENANCE . ❛ only if you turn in as well . ❜ the sofa - bed in her office was much better than falling asleep in a CHAIR , anyways . a pause — crimson lips parting to exhume a yawn as she buries herself further , deeper into his arms until she swears she’s become LOST.
@alterplex from PLEASE DON’T GO.
even as she settled into him , he found himself growing DROWSIER , as though one touch from her , one word from her sleepy mouth , one yawn into the fabric of his jacket , made that fatigue and sleepiness contagious . maybe because it was LATE , anyways , and they both needed their rest . he'd get her to the sofa anyways - knew she wouldn't be able to make it all the way to her home ( OR MAYBE HIS , even though he barely had room to move someone else in : not when donny and mia were living there too . TOO AWKWARD ) . they should put that on every employees list of things they needed : a sofa-bed . good for falling asleep on when work ran too late .
❛ i will . ❜ and he would . but she was TOO COMFORTABLE against him right now ; felt like melted butter , except heavy and less disgusting and much harder to move . ❛ but you have to HELP ME UP . lemme get you to the sofa . ❜

Truth be told, Sandor doesn’t like helping anyone, unless he is getting something good out of it. && furthermore, to be approached only serves to make him more weary about the situation ______ he prides himself on keeping his business quiet && intimate, && yet here this stranger stands – throwing ultimatums && asking for help. Yet, Sandor is still skeptical, for the man offered no reward UP FRONT, which has the potential to mean that he was planning on receiving services for free. Sandor doesn’t do shit for free.
He stares at the man quietly, somberly, as though trying to determine his personality simply from the lines ‘cross his face or the way the man’s eyes flickered. ‘ If you want me to do shit for you, you’re gonna have to give me a good PRICE. ‘
there was some WEIRD SHIT happening all over the place back home . it hadn't been a very long drive to get here , but it took the equal amount of TIME to find what he was looking for - or who he was looking for , anyways . this wasn't in his goddamn job description ; but then , he wasn't much a man who was EASILY FRIGHTENED out of doing things , either .
❛ yeah , definitely , ❜ came his quick response , american accent suddenly sharp and unwelcome on his tongue . funny how stupid he thought he sounded when he wasn't surrounded by people who SPOKE like him . ❛ there's a good amount of money . like , uh ... maybe ten grand . that's in dollars - probably MORE THAN THAT for you . ❜

❛ Are you laughing or crying? ❜
:*╰ ▉ ╮・゜ QUESTION SENTENCE STARTERS . ⟩⟩ ، FILE ╱ @ethelo .
❛ does it look like i’m crying ?! ❜ the way the tears had gathered at the corners of his eyes ( one had THREATENED and almost fallen straight down his cheek , although he’d caught it in time and wiped it away with a finger ) , he could very well be crying . but , although he was gasping for air and couldn’t CEASE the painful tautness of his abdomen and his stomach in his stupid laughing fit , he still had a wide grin on his face , and people who CRIED didn’t normally have a wide grin on their face .
a sniff : he lifted a hand to his eyes to wipe at them again . ❛ i’m laughing , i swear . swear I’M OKAY ! i’ll be fine ! ❜ he was definitely saying that more to himself than to her . he ducked his head again : leaned it against his PROPPED ARM and shook his head , turning it to press his eyes into his sleeve . ❛ ugh , lemme recover ! ❜ a giggle . wasn’t happening .

things that hurt me : the part in the credits song with kennedy’s voice clip saying ‘ these are extraordinary times. and we face an extraordinary challenge. the dramatic achievements … which occurred in recent weeks should have made clear to us all … the impact of this adventure on the minds of men everywhere, who are attempting to make a determination of which road they should take ’ FOLLOWED IMMEDIATELY BY THE LYRICS ‘ take me home to where we belong ’ LMFAO FUCK EVERYTHING FUCK T HI

“Can I buy you a drink?”
huh - that was a first . at least , a first from a stranger he'd never met before . ❛ i was planning on BUYING MY OWN , but ... yeah , sure ... thanks . ❜ a flash of intrigue and confusion through his eyes . ❛ is this just something ON A WHIM , or ... ? ❜
