Remy couldn't stand that whole decontamination thing he had been put through. It just wasn't right. Yes, he understood their reasoning for it, but did it really have to involve needles? He hated needles. It was worse then being stuck in snow. Well, maybe not worse, but pretty damn close. For all the jokes in the world, nothing seemed to appease them. They just kept wanting more and more. Clothes. Blood. You know it. And there was no way he was going to just sit there and have them watch and wait for him to exhibit some symptoms. Why wouldn't he make it this long alive? Wasn't it always the bastards that lived through these types of things? That made it alive after the world had thrown the worst it had at you? Yeah, if they were not going to give him any choice besides sit around or get stabbed, Remy quickly rethought that whole no needles thing and ended up holding out his arm for them to take all they wanted. The vampires comment apparently came off unsettling. But what was he supposed to do? There were only so many remarks about the blue man group anyone could make.

Choosing to wonder around the few places he could go, grumbling about how if he was an actual threat he would have blown up the building already, he was glad to at least have a pack of cards. Even before this whole Apocolypse, he was the type that needed to be on the move. Sure, he could sit around and appear to be laid back, but he was always itching to do something. Solitaire could only keep you going for so long. And the way people stared, he half felt like he should be wearing a pair of sunglasses. Sure, some of them were pretty obvious mutants themselves, but it made a man self conscious. As much as Remy LeBeau loved attention, some of the looks of curiosity were nice, but some of the fearful ones, that just irked him to no end. Choosing to ignore it all, he kept his poker face. How could he not? It's what he did.

Shuffling the cards in his hands, he found himself some place to sit, only to look up every now and again, trying to at least appear friendly. "Dis is gonna be a long night?"

She licked her lips and watched his hands as he stopped shuffling the cards. Any game... that gave her quite a few options. Remy was in room seven, presumably on the third floor, as the room was occupied on her floor. She smiled at the mention of the room's lack of bathroom.

"I have a bathroom in my room," she nodded, tilting her head slightly to ask, "Would you like to see it?"

See her bathroom? Well that was one he hadn't heard in quite a while. Of course, that whole decontamination thing kind of burnt out the spark for that one. If anything he was more then happy to go without seeing her bathroom, if she really showed it to him right now.

Laughing lightly, he shook his head, looking back down at the cards in his hands for but a moment before looking back up at Raven. "Maybe 'nother time? If anythin' I could use some help gettin' back to my room though. Dis place be a lil' confusin', non?" Yeah right. He was so full of shit right there as it was since his room was right across the hall over there and to top it off, him and the layout of any building was something he had a tendency to memorize. You needed to know certain things, especially if things went bad.

Raven leveled her eyes at him and raised an eyebrow as he declined the offer, not even bothering to waste time rolling her eyes. He was shuffling the deck in his hands again, and she watched it, considering his request. Room seven was directly across the hall from the common room, and there was no way in hell that he didn't already know that.

"Fine," she pushed back from the table and stood, moving toward the door. "But you had better make it worth my while to help you find it."

Standing up, he just smirked as he pocketed the cards. They burned his coat, and as much as the poor damn thing needed it, he really wanted it back. His coat did so much more then just keep him warm, and yes, while that was needed, considering his strong hate for snow, Remy liked the ability to place as many things as he needed to in the pockets. He was able to hide so much. And now nothing. It was irritating, but he'd deal with that later. Obviously he was going to need a coat in the dead of winter right?

Of course, following Raven the whole few steps across the hall seemed far more important to him at the moment. "I'm sure we can be comin' up with somethin' for dat."

	"Mmm, here's hoping," she replied, leading the way out to the hall and toward his room. There were a few things that the man had always been good for, and thankfully making things worth her while generally fell into that category. As she left the room, she glanced at him over her shoulder. "Turn out the lights." (Reply to this) (Parent)
