The One on the Sidelines [Invitation]

[bone_genius]

[Like many of the others in Wonderland, Brennan is pissed about this event. It's barbaric and she doesn't want to play. Period.

There are two things she learned from the vampire event. First, anyone can turn on you. So while she has zero intention of fighting anyone, she is armed and prepared to defend herself if someone wants to be ridiculous.

[Okay...so this guy is none too thrilled about certain aspects of the event. One being the thick collar around his neck. Two; he knows who this event belongs to and what he needs to do to survive. So, it's safe to say he'll be 'chatting' up that certain individual later on.

But for now, he's decided to make his way to the dining room to grab a bite to eat. What could be better than a juicy steak during an event like this? Obviously nothing.

However, his thoughts are interrupted by a not so happy looking doctor heading toward him on the way to her room.]

Evening, Doctor Brennan.

[bone_genius]

[She really doesn't mean to look so sullen, but she can't help it. This event is... awful. And she couldn't even enjoy her lunch in peace. Everyone asking her to fight or even just trying to attack her.

And this stupid collar is stupid. It's itchy and making her hot. Even wearing a tank top she's still hot. Stupid stupid poisoning stupid.

But running into Dr. Wesker is never a bad thing. So even though she's wearing an epic scowl, she's smiling on the inside. Slightly.]

Hello, Doctor Wesker. How are you on this wonderful day?

[viral_tyrant]

[And her scowl is met with an expression of...confusion. Because he doesn't know if he should laugh at her or continue to be upset about what the mansion has done to the residents for the event.]

About as well as you seem to be doing, I'm guessing.

[He tugs at the collar once more, and sure enough it's still there. He frowns. Not only at the fact that he can't remove it, but the fact that the collar prevents him from zipping up his shirt all the way.]

Have you been able to acquire any candy since the beginning of the event?

[bone_genius]

[Oh, she noticed that his shirt wasn't zipped all the way. She finds she's rather appreciative of the little piece of skin visible between the collar and his zipper. Actually, she finds she's quite appreciative of this shirt in general. The material just tight enough for her to see the muscular definition in his torso. His entire outfit is just so... She's already starting to get that devious twinkle in her eye.

She mimics Wesker and tugs at her own collar.]

No, I have not had any of this "candy". I will not let this place force me into some barbaric pseudo-gladiatorial match for its own entertainment. It's disgusting.

[Welcome back, scowl. We missed you.]

[notursalvation]

[Nagi really does not appreciate the mansion's shenanigans.

Like.

Really, really doesn't.

He's been trying to track down some people who he knows really aren't much into fighting, and he happens to come upon one Doctor Brennan in the process. He pauses, fingering his scarf.]

Doctor.

[bone_genius]

[She stops and turns to Nagi. Her white collar is barely noticeable, what with her red tank top... oh, an all of the bruises coming up on just about every inch of exposed skin on and below her jawline.

Enjoy this EPIC SCOWL. It's ALL FOR YOU. Because she knows this is your event. She knows this is all your fault.]

Nagi. Or Owl. Or whatever your name is supposed to be.

[notursalvation]

[He sighs. So hostile.]

My name is Nagi. I usually go by Owl. You can call me whichever you prefer.

[He comes a few steps closer.]

Have you had any candy, Doctor?

[bone_genius]

Nagi.

[She doesn't appreciate him coming closer to her and rests her right hand on the holster on her hip.]

Yes, I have.

[Now she's kinda scowling and smirking at the same time...]
