[Firo appears on the Plane making an 'owf@#!' face. He is hanging on to his arm, which already appears to have healed over... except for his hand. He stares at it. It is missing three fingers.]

....damn.

[What's the quote? "People who drink to drown their sorrows should be told that sorrow knows how to swim."]

Back when the Gates first showed up, the organization that studies them--PANDORA--liked to catch Contractors and run experiments. Or try to create Contractors on their own. [Pours himself another one, spilling a little.] Bad time for everyone.

[Props his head in his good hand again.] Contractors?

[Bitter smirk.] It's the name given to the monsters in my world. [Lovely alcohol~]

Szilard was a monster. [Sips his drink broodingly.] Tracked down and ate eighteen other immortals before... before he got eaten himself.

[Swills his drink.] When you say "eaten" you don't mean in the normal sense, do you?

[....] Not cooked and served pretty, no. Consumed might be more accurate--we just always called it eating.

...they did, I mean. The first immortals.

[Is about to ask how it works, then realizes he doesn't really want to know. So he just downs his drink and tries to pour himself another, except he succeeds in only getting half of it actually in the glass and the rest all over the table :|]

[Firo, being the nice guy he is, tops Hei off.] You miss her, huh.

[contract_star]

[Debates lying, debates getting into the can/can't feel argument, and decides he's really too tired and drunk for all that bullshit right now.]

Yes.

I'm sorry. [Because he knows what it's like and wishes he didn't.]

[contract_star]

So am I. [And drinks.]
