Back in the Saddle Again!

[lightblindbadass]

Who // Richard B. Riddick, whoever wants to run into him [open]
What // Riddick is back in the castle after a very extended... vacation or something like that
Where // In the castle's main foyer, literally just walking through the front door
When // Sunday, August 4th
How // Actionspam, threadjacking always welcome


Riddick wasn't really one to keep in touch with people... well ever really, but mostly while on a mission. Which is where he had been, for a while. Once that mission was finished though, he took some time for himself and just sort of... disappeared for a few months. No phone calls, no letters, not even a postcard. What a jerk.

After those few months of being all out of touch with everyone in the castle here he comes strolling casually through the front door, no luggage, and still looking like he gives no fucks. Which he doesn't.

Hit him with your best shot.

You could say that I guess. More like a memory trip, really. [He keeps pace with her easily, readjusting his goggles absently.]

[lissatrinall]

Didn't take you for the nostalgic type.

[lightblindbadass]

[He rolls his shoulders cuz talking about stuff-ish]

Normally I'm not. More curious to see where I grew up, see if I recognized anything.

[lissatrinall]

And? [ DOWN THE STEPS ]

[lightblindbadass]

[TO THE GARAGE] Recognized the city, but not much else. A lot changes in a couple hundred years.

[lissatrinall]

No one you knew left either, I take it.

[lightblindbadass]

I gave Dovon a heads up, didn't figure I needed to advertise it to everyone. [And no, he totally does not see how jerky he sounds.]

[lissatrinall]

I meant left where you went looking. People left that you knew when you lived there.

See how being tired makes me not able to read things correctly :P

[notafraidofthedark]

[He glances down at her briefly at that.]

Nope. Course, I was in an orphanage since before I can remember, so mostly everyone disappeared that I would have known.

[lissatrinall]

How long ago was that?

[notafraidofthedark]

Well, when I came through the veil the year was 2572. So a while ago.

[lissatrinall]

... That sounds a little backwards to me.

[notafraidofthedark]

How so?

[lissatrinall]

That's the future. Not the past.

[notafraidofthedark]

[He's just kind of side-eyeing her strangely.]

I never said I was from the past.

[lissatrinall]

You said you visited where you came from. Don't tell me you're hiding a time machine somewhere off grounds.

[lightblindbadass]

[ A look of comprehension crosses his features, finally getting where she was coming from.]

No, unfortunately no time machines. I meant I went to the city I was found in, here on earth, to see if I would recognize anything. To see how changed it was.

[lissatrinall]

What city?

[lightblindbadass]

New York. The city that never sleeps.

[lissatrinall]

So it's still around. When you came from?

[notafraidofthedark]

[He shrugs non-commitally] I guess. Least, it was the last time I was near this solar-system.

Didn't recognize anything though.

[lissatrinall]

I didn't realize you were so... well traveled.

[lightblindbadass]

[He glances at her sideways, a toothy grin coming to his lips.]

You'd be surprised how far space travel ends up taking humankind.

[lissatrinall]

I don't suppose you have any space-age tech for me to look at?

[lightblindbadass]

[He spreads his arms wide, showing off his very buff physique in a tank top and army issue black pants. The tank top was tight enough to leave nothing to the imagination.]

What you see is what you get. Though, I may be able to help you upgrade some of the tech you have already.
