[Church]

You missin' a spare suit of that armor of yours, by any chance?

Specifically one made out of hard plastic.

[Emma and Bond]

Turns out that Silva friend of yours is right across from me on the second floor.

You might want to avoid the Death Match for a while.

[And the stairs, for that matter. Take the elevator to get anywhere else guys, seriously. Pixy's not too thrilled that this guy is right across from him... but it just reminds him why he introduces himself with his TAC Name and not his real name. He kind of figures they're already aware of the guy's location, but hey, how would either of them know that they had an ally right across from him?]

So judging by the things everyone else has said, I'm guessin' I'm not the only one this has happened to.

If any one of you happen to have something against that guy Church, do me a favor and don't assault the first guy in blue armor that you see. I'm not above shooting back.

[And his leg is still hurt, but he's not gonna tell anyone he's wounded. Geez. But if you happen to see Pixy out and about today, you may, in fact, see him in a certain suit of blue armor. Very akin to what one (1) Leonard Church wears. He feels rather fortunate that the helmet isn't glued on, but the rest of the suit sure is.]

[There's a long pause as Bond mulls this over]

Thank you for the warning. This may be of some use, actually. I may have use for your room in the future.

[There's a light scoff.]

Hey, I'm willing to provide free intel, but I never said anything about you letting yourself into my room whenever you feel like.

[What? He's a mercenary. There are deals to be made about this sort of thing.]

At least I'm giving you fair warning and not just letting myself in unannounced.

[Don't think he can't do it.]

Besides - who said anything about free?

The door's locked all the time anyway, so unless you planned to kick it down, you wouldn't be able to get in anyway.

[What? Pixy sure doesn't suspect that Bond's a freakin' secret agent. He's just another military guy for all he knows.]

Well, now we're on the same page.

[Lara was out on the castle grounds, with a video camera in her hands. She is documenting as much of the castle as she could, apparently. She caught the sight of a familiar blue armor. But with her in Utena's costume, this guy might be in another person's costume too, so she's not sure if this is actually that guy she saved by fucking up that one herbivore]

[Can't you just hear this smirk, Pixy]

Be careful or I'll take that as a challenge.

[On to more serious things]

What do you want in exchange?

[Oh he pretty much can. Pixy may be smirking himself.]

Yeah? You sure you want to do that when that friend of yours is right across the hall?

[He miiiight be challenging you, Bond.]

It'd only be fair to have you make an offer first, wouldn't it?

[He certainly wasn't assaulted by any herbivores, he was just nearly mauled by raptors. Pixy's just sitting at the base of a tree while Weiss was running across, occasionally bringing back a stick for Pixy to throw- which he was actually obliging, the puppy running off after it.]

I've done far worse with him in closer proximity, I assure you.

[Challenge accepted.]

Have you been to visit the Death Match yet?

I'll just have to take your word on that then.

[He'll scoff again. He's totally not expecting you to do anything, Bond.]

A few times since Emma opened the place. She and I dropped in on it a couple months ago when it was still abandoned.

How would you like to never have to pay a tab again?

[Oh, he likes you, Bond.]

You sure Emma'd go for somethin' like that?

She would if it meant keeping a better eye on Silva.

[He'll be chuckling then.]

Well, I can't exactly turn down an offer like that.

Plastic? No. But hey, at least you got something that kicks ass.

[A certain someone is not leaving his room because the castle is a dick.]

I dunno, armor isn't exactly my thing.

[Come on, Church, it can't be THAT bad!]

Yeah, but at least it's kick ass armor. Not as cool as the real thing but still.

[Dude, you're not dressed like Sunny Baudelaire! Gerber curl and all.]

[Lara wasn't the one for conversation, so she just went back to mind her own business. But Weiss noticed her and her cute outfit. He barked at Lara and and ran to her. Yay, new friend!]

[Pixy immediately looked up and groaned, watching Weiss run off towards that pink-haired chick. He got to his feet and jogged over as best he could with this armor and his injured leg.]

Weiss!

Depending on what could happen, I'd best hope it's a strong enough plastic to defend me from any potential attacks.

[Yep, that's Pixy for you. Expecting the castle to try to kill everyone amidst its outfit switching.]

It pull you in on this 'outfit swapping' nonsense?

I'm sure it can't be any worse than that beat up old jacket you wear.

[and now with less humor because he's pissed.]

Yeah and no I'm not telling you what.

[Don't diss the flight jacket, man. Even if the Galm patch on it still doesn't particularly sit well with him.]

That 'old jacket' that I've had to replace twice in the past two months.

[He'll be chuckling at that sudden tone change from Church.]

Fair enough. I'll doubt it's anyone I'm familiar with anyway.

[Weiss circled around Lara before stopping to sit and stare at her. She just crouched to pet the little puppy]

Hello

Heh, clearly it's been doing a great job over plastic replica armor.

... Damn. Honestly? I'm beginning to wonder if I'd have any luck here at all without the bad.

[her voice might sound a little tinny. because reasons.]
