Aiden Shepard [ Abraham Van Helsing ] (arcere) wrote in bellumlogs,
"He was human," Aiden pointed out, tilting the beer bottle around on its base, still grinning. "Therefore, he had human eyes, and therefore he counts." He knew what she meant, obviously, but why conform to rules that had loopholes the size of a planet? Even if he lost the argument in the end, he'd still have gone to the point of proving her wrong enough times to make himself look victorious. To a degree.
... in any case, she couldn't try to say the doctor hadn't been human. The apartment building and its fun tendency to toss humanity out the window be damned.
Aiden tried to take another drink before remembering the bottle was empty. He got a third and was already taking a sip when he remembered that he'd told himself he wasn't going to drink very much - after all, hangovers were made a thousand times worse when you already had headaches that resembled earthquakes in the skull - but at this point, he figured, a third drink wouldn't hurt. He was already drinking it, after all.
