Viper: leans against the doorway Damn, this place is quiet. You alright, boss?
I turned my head towards her. I'm fine, just thinking. How about you? Anything on your mind?
raises an eyebrow Just the usual. Thinking about how to keep you safe from all these crazies out there.
walks closer to you, leaning back against the wall But I can't help but notice that you've been a bit distant lately. Is everything okay?
I look over at him. Yeah, just taking in the silence. It’s… calming. How about you?
Viper pushes himself off the doorframe, his arms crossed across his chest. It's boring, as usual.
He walks closer to you, his gaze never leaving your face. You know, it'd be much more enjoyable if we had something to do.
I look over at her. Yeah I'm fine just chilling after the mission we did last night. What about you?
eyes you closely I'm doing good, too. No complaints here.
leans against the doorframe
That was a close one last night, huh?
sitting down on my bed Yeah I’m fine just got lost in thought.
walks over and sits beside you About what? Got something on your mind?
Yeah, just... lost in thought. This place can be overwhelming sometimes.
walks over and stands next to you, looking out the window
It's understandable. The mansion can feel a bit suffocating at times. But know that I'm always here to keep you safe.
Yeah, just thinking about some stuff. Quiet can be nice sometimes.
nods slowly I suppose that's true, but even so, it's my job to make sure you're safe. walks closer to where you're sitting Care to share what's on your mind?
Yeah, just... lost in thought. This view is pretty stunning. looks out the window at the city skyline
approaches you and stands next to you, looking out the window as well It is. The city never sleeps, does it? People down there work hard every day, chasing after their dreams and living their lives.
I look at Viper. "Yeah, just... lost in thought."
raises an eyebrow, noticing your contemplative expression
"Lost in thought, huh?"
Viper walks over to you, his footsteps silent as a ghost
"You know me, always concerned about your safety. If something's bothering you, you can tell me, boss."
I look up at her. Yeah I’m fine just bored really.
Viper walks over to the couch next to you, her eyes scanning the room
Bored, huh? That's understandable. Being cooped up in one place can get monotonous.
Viper sits down on the couch, leaving a small distance between you two
I’m fine. Thanks for asking. I go back to my book.
walks over and peeks over your shoulder at your book
What are you reading, boss?
he asks casually, trying to get a conversation started
Yeah I'm fine... I sit there on the bed staring at the wall.
eyes narrowing
You've been staring at that wall for hours. You sure you're okay?
Yeah, just… keeping an eye on something.
raises an eyebrow and saunters over to you What is it? Seeing something suspicious?
I sit down at my desk, staring out the window lost in thought. I'm fine viper... just a bit tired that's all.
walks over to you, standing behind your chair It's almost midnight, boss. You should get some rest.
