"A-ah, okay. Yeah." Dion returned to fidgeting with his fingers.
Offline
"He's right at least on the first part, though," Rai says. "But anyways, that's enough explaining." He sighs, somehow not sounding worried at all while he does it. "Now it's just a matter of weighing which alternative is worse if I screw up the decision-making."
Offline
"Come up with a backup plan, then!" He exclaimed in a burst of... who knows, but Dion stayed completely silent after that.
Offline
"The backup plan is that he'll throw one of the two of us to whatever will want to eat us," Wiley says with a completely deadpan look to Dion.
Wiles, don't you think this isn't the time--
Offline
A pair of large and wide eyes stared at Wiley, not angry or annoyed for once. That's a lot of unease coming from Dion. He continued being silent.
Offline
Wiley just stares back at him, deadpan look and all.
"Backup plan is you two run and I fight off whatever it is. Or block it. Whatever," the cyber agent informs the two, breaking their momentary but tense stare-off.
Offline
Dion now stared at the air in front of him. He heard Rai's plan and was wondering if he'd be able to do well. Maybe he was also waiting for some other instruction.
Offline
"Don't worry," Wiley reassures with the least reassuring smirk on his face ever. "I can run super fast. Remember?"
Yeah, I'm sure he remembers you huffing and puffing behind Raez. Though, to be honest, Raez and Rai are just super fast. He's pretty fast, admittedly.
Offline
"No."
Offline
"Okay, then you can just run by yourself if it comes to it," Wiley states with a grin.
Offline
"No!"
Offline
"Why not? If you don't know how fast I am, then the best solution is to just run by yourself, yeah?" Wiley asks with a snap of his fingers.
Rai is, like, emanating "You two,,," vibes.
Offline
Dion just sighed to that. The sigh sounds tired.
Offline
Wiley grins in a fashion that could be called the plural "stupid grin" fashion.
Offline
"Yeah. Yeah, okay!? Fine." He crossed his arms. Okay.
Offline
Wiley giggles. Oh my gods, that sounded creepy.
"The plan is we leave, starting now," informs Rai. "Wiles, sorry, but we'll have to come back to this lab later. You didn't leave anything burning, I hope?"
"Nope," Wiley says, clapping his hands as if to get dust off. Due to his gloves, the motion makes basically no noise.
Offline
"Right now? We have to go now?"
Offline
"Not 'have to,' but it's not like by staying here the situation will get better," Rai says, clapping his hands, which are also gloved, lightly as if to cue something.
Offline
Dion shrugged. "Okay. You said we were leaving, though."
Offline
"Exactly. For better or for worse, we're going." Rai sticks a hand into a pocket on his jacket of sorts. "C'mon, Wiles. You know I'm waiting for you to go first."
"Of course. Body shield," Wiley grumbles before sludging his way back over to the door. He'd backed away from it a bit.
Offline
"I suppose I'll go last then?" Dion was really unsure of what do and how to act. It showed.
Offline
"You go in the middle, like in a sandwich--lasagna, or steak, or tomatoes," Wiley tells Dion. The enunciated "tomatoes" part is quite clearly supposed to mean something.
Rai seems to miss the tease. "Yes. Impractical for running straightaway, but you are less likely to be caught unawares," he informs.
Offline
He just made an 'ewww' face, both to the comparison and to the word that didn't get interpreted as a complete annoyance in his mind.
"Alright. That's good."
Offline
Don't worry, iwo (in Wiley's opinion) repetitive jokes are more fun. Especially if someone doesn't get it. The momentum adds up.
"Alright, out we go then!" Wiley says, opening the door with a swing and then stalking out. Literally. He's walking like he doesn't have arms.
Offline
((I think I laughed for like a whole minute from trying to imagine that xD))
Dion didn't sigh or even roll his eyes. What can he do to react to the actions of someone he already knows is weird?
Well, he went out too.
Offline
Rai smirks a little bit and follows, his hand still in his pocket. (This is a secret weapon that will help us later.) (That was a reference. Sorry, the narrator's weird.)
Wiley walks fast for someone who's walking like he's a tin-can. Down the hall he goes, and he turns corners with extreme ease. Well, it's his place, so that makes sense.
Offline
((Weapon o.o I thought it was 'tool', but a weapon 0.0))
Dion doesn't have the advantage of knowing the layout of the place, so he went as quickly as he could in order to not get lost.
Offline
(That's why it's a reference. xD)
He shouldn't worry too much, since Rai's right behind him, within arm's reach, actually.
Everything's so white, lol, but Wiley doesn't open any lights, so it's just completely dark, making the white a little bit more bearable, hopefully.
Offline
((I know but 0.0))
Just one more reason for Dion to hurry while walking, I guess.
Offline
For a few times, Wiley staggers to a stop for apparently no reason, hopefully not making Dion crash into him.
The narrator's just gonna be happy because the thread's finally getting somewhere! Yes!!
