You guys have a lot of drama going on for a bunch of people stuck on an island with crazy people willing and able to kill us.

[trialbyliar]

What's your biggest drama, then?

[metalicarus]

What here on the island?
Listening to the rest of you
Getting enough water for the next day
Wondering if I’m ever going to get my knee fixed and why the fuck I can’t just fly around this place

[trialbyliar]

You can fly??

[metalicarus]

I mean yeah. I’m a pilot.
I’ve also got jet engines from the knee down and in my back, they just don’t work anymore.

Id take you flying if I could. Nothing like it.

[trialbyliar]

Wait. What? What do you mean in your back?

[metalicarus]

I didn't exactly stutter. They're kinda like wings, I guess.

[trialbyliar]

Are you a robot??

[metalicarus]

That's too many question marks
No
I was born in the Bronx

[obeir]

[ Don't mind him, his curiosity was piqued by this conversation. ]

So you're a human with robotic enhancements?

[metalicarus]

[He minds a little...but it's more about his own discomfort than the question.]

Kinda. Guess it depends on hos human you count as human if it's only like 10% of you left that's organic. But sure.

[obeir]

[ As an android surrounded by humans, he'd just been hoping for a kindred spirit of sorts, not to make the guy uncomfortable. Alas. He refrains from following up with any invasive questions, instead settling on: ]

If you were born human, I'd say you're still human regardless of what's been done to you. If that's how you want to identify. Is it?

[metalicarus]

It's complicated. I'm human but I'm not one of the humans, a lot of them have made that pretty clear, anyway.

It's fine, they need protecting and that's what I'm for. Anything else just gets muddy.

Why do you care so much anyway?

[Not to get defensive about a sensitive subject, but-]

[trialbyliar]

Hey, do you still have a dick?

[salamanca]

Aw, come on! Lighten up.

If you were a beer, would you drink yourself?

[metalicarus]

Hell yeah I would, I’m not a beer snob or anything and I’d probably taste pretty good.

Which is weirder now that I say it out loud.

What about you?

[salamanca]

Are you kidding? Hell yeah. I'd definitely drink myself.

It's only weird if you think about it too hard.

What kind of beer would you be? I'm thinking I'd be a Modelo.

[metalicarus]

Solid choice. Probably Rahr and Sons. They've got this Double IPA, Visionary or something. It takes your tongue for a dance for sure.

[salamanca]

[ "Takes your tongue for a dance!" Jet's a poet and he didn't even know it! Damn, you're speaking Lalo's language. ]

Double question time.

If you get some here, will you let me try it?

Two, what's your favorite cocktail and why?

[metalicarus]

Uh...[Well-] yeah, the next one I find. Honestly didn't even stop to really taste the one I found too much, just shared it with Martin and Kokichi cause I wanted the bottle for water.

Two's gotta be scotch on the rocks, I'm not much a frills kinda guy. What about you?

[salamanca]

Cognac. Straight up. With a good burn.

If it's a good quality liquor, you don't need the frills. It speaks for itself.

BUUUUT sometimes the frills are nice too!

[metalicarus]

You sound like a friend of mine, but you're not wrong.

And there's Nothing wrong with frills! Just don't usually bother. If I want to get fancy, I like a good whisky sour and old fashions are good. I like the little cherry it comes with.

[Shut up they're fun.]

[salamanca]

Yeah? What's your friend like? Tell me more about him!

I can tie the cherry stem in a knot with my tongue! Wanna see?

[metalicarus]

Ha! Not on your life. [He doesn't need to know what your tongue can do, Lalo.]

My buddy's name is GB. He's a British actor and British Intelligence. Should probably tell you plenty, but he liked his alcohol. Sometimes a little too much.

[salamanca]

[ Et tu, Brute? Speaking of cherries! Lalo is - once again - bright red. He's blushed more playing this stupid game that he has in the past decade. ] No! That's not what I meant! I wasn't trying to -

[ He is grateful for the diversion, and latches onto Jet's story about his friend. ] Yeah? What's "GB" stand for? I knew a British guy once. Nice guy, but [ Lalo shakes his head and sticks out his tongue ] British food, yuck!
