Uh huh. Logically Ben was pretty sure this was all hypothetical still, but something about Mao's smug grin gave him pause. He supposed anything was possible, considering. It wasn't exactly normal that he could turn into a dog. Or that he worked for some mysterious government agency doing science experiments with nothing more than a high school diploma. So... Corpses dancing? Maybe could happen? He didn't really want to find out though.
To be fair, Ben wasn't exactly cool. And manners dictated a handshake. He was pretty surprised by the strength of Mao's grip, but returned it with equal enthusiasm. "Nice to meet you, too." Honestly, he wondered why they hadn't met before. He had to be about the same age, but he definitely would have remembered someone like him from high school.
"Uh." Well that was an open ended question. "Lots of stuff, I guess? I work at Area-52, I run--that's obvious I guess--and uh. I dunno. Video games? Dungeons and Dragons. That kinda stuff. What do you do, besides hang out in graveyards?"
