Jan. 2nd, 2013 02:06 pmSo are we just not gonna talk about how the apparent end of the world got called off at the last minute?
[Beat.]
No? No. Okay, whatever.
[Shrugging his shoulders, Lancer dismissed the thought and moved on to the next subject.]
Y'know, yesterday marked two years I've been here? And it's not really something I ever gave much thought to, but...hell, two years is a long time when you're not constantly fighting. I'm still not sure how you humans deal with a life this boring, but I guess it ain't all that bad. That's two years I shouldn't even have been alive for, so complaining would be pretty stupid even for me.
[He laughed, a rough but not unfriendly sound that sounded almost like barking.]
I guess what I'm kinda drivin' at here is...I've seen a lot of people come and go--people I gave a damn about, and I'd be a liar if I said I don't miss the hell out of them. But I'm pretty grateful I got the chance t' meet anyone here in the first place.
[As if he'd just realized the sentimental nonsense he was saying, Lancer paused somewhat awkwardly.]
...Hell, I must sound like I've finally lost it. Maybe I have. Doesn't matter, I guess. Listen, I ain't really sure where I'll be around the 13th, but if anybody wants to meet me for a drink around then or anytime, really let me know.
[It seemed he wasn't going to elaborate on why the 13th specifically; even if he was, it was right about then a Houndoom came poking her nose in his face demanding attention. Scratching her lightly behind the ears, Lancer stopped the video without another word.]
