Re: day 83, late @THISTLES

[leonheartedly]

Mmm. Zombies, bioterrorism, shit like that - that's the kind of work I do, taking care of that.

"Government agent" is . . . not wrong, but a gross understatement.

[papartner]

Um... wow. Seriously?

[ zombies is out there but then again they were just talking about demons, so-- ]

Like. Protect and Serve kind of stuff, huh?

[ that is the part that is more, uh. concerning on some level for a man who. well. ]

[with a wry look]

Funny you use those words, because I was a cop, too. Only for a day, though.

Re: day 83, late @THISTLES

[papartner]

H--how does someone only be a cop for one day?

Re: day 83, late @THISTLES

[leonheartedly]

Aha . . . there was an outbreak in the city I was assigned to. When I went to report in, I drove right into the middle of it.

Re: day 83, late @THISTLES

[papartner]

Holy shit, dude...

Re: day 83, late @THISTLES

[leonheartedly]

Yeah. And that led to getting this job, so - only a cop for a day.

Re: day 83, late @THISTLES

[papartner]

Weird, fucked up, but valid career path I guess.

Hah, it's not as simple as I make it sound, but that's a conversation over a strong drink.

[. . .]

Don't know what you did back home, but I have this feeling it isn't military or along those lines. Just so you know, I don't care what it is. [he smiles a bit] Kind of familiar with the "oh shit, a cop" look since I get it all the time.

Re: day 83, late @THISTLES

[papartner]

Well, if you do wanna talk about it, I'll take a drink anytime, so there's that.

As for me, well, maybe that's a talk to have over a drink too. I don't think people here would care much either, but it's still kind of...

Re: day 83, late @THISTLES

[leonheartedly]

Heh, then we can talk over a drink or two. [or more than that. Probably more than that]

Don't worry, I get it. You're right, no one will care, but it's hard not to think they might when that's what you're used to, yeah?

Re: day 83, late @THISTLES

[papartner]

Kinda like that. I don't have a traditional job or anything, so it's a little hard to explain.

Re: day 83, late @THISTLES

[leonheartedly]

That kind of tells me plenty already.

Re: day 83, late @THISTLES

[papartner]

I'm sure I have no idea what you mean.

Re: day 83, late @THISTLES

[leonheartedly]

[he looks amused]

Uh huh.

I'll take guesses when we sit down to drink.
