As Random finishes his Sunrise, deciding what exactly to do next, he takes a look around the bar . . .

Hmm. She was being more cranky then Gears and he could get pretty cranky. Kinda reminded him of himself on somedays . . .

He hesitates, giving the ceiling look as if saying, "do I really want to do this?" and then gets up from the table and walks in Arcee's direction.

The pink and white femme seems more intent on producing a low-voiced stream of vituperation than on thinking. Figuratively, the air around her is as blue as she is pink.

Keg looks around at Random's approach. //Watch out, she in a mood.//

//Thanks. I can see that.// he comms Keg when he's pretty close.

"Hello, Arcee. Has anything gone right in your life recently?" he asks when he's within the appropriate conversation distance.

She pauses and shoots him a look that could cut steel. "The AV field prevents me from giving that question the answer it deserves."

The look doesn't appear to have fazed him. "Well, I tried to start out positive. Why do optimistic people think that kinda slag works?"

[random_xtras]

Her answer is dry, cutting, highly uncomplimentary to optimistic people, and unprintable.

"Well, thank you, you've just insulted my best friend." Again, not too fazed. "How does one best convince them of the errors of their ways?"

She glowers toward where the cute little Minicon is sitting on the bar and going ^_^ up at Blackout. "Try pumping their processor full of slag and then letting them learn they're not what they thought they were."

"Don't think that'll work. They've got a 'I can only see things as good' scope of life."
