[ The feed flickers on and there is a disembodied hand being held in view, waving in a friendly sort of way. Jason dips his face into view, he's grinning wildly; ]

Anybody need a hand??

[ He starts laughing as if the joke is the funniest thing in the world. Somewhere off-screen, Vaas can be heard chanting "Soylent Green is people!"

The hand waves again before the feed flickers off. That's it. That's the post. ]

( ooc: sorry. replies will come from both jason and vaas! )

[ Respect for the dead isn't something that Vaas practices. Mostly because he doesn't have respect for other people and a little because he's so desensitized to death that he doesn't even care.

And maybe he ought to care that he ended up eating a few of this stupid fucker's fingers, but it hadn't tasted bad, necessarily, and well... he's eaten worse. And he really enjoyed Soylent Green when he'd first seen it. That fucking movie's a classic. ]

Jason. [ Chuckling, he reaches over to slap at Jason's arm. ] Jason no. Don't give that away. We can use the bones.

[dudebro]

[ Unfortunately, with all that Rook has taught him, Jason only has a certain amount of respect when it directly concerns him or someone he knows and/or cares about. He doesn't know who this person was, didn't see anything concerning a missing person, so.

So, he's treating it a little poorly.

But the joke was just there and he had to. Because, really, when is he going to get to make this sort of joke again?? He might feel bad about it later, but right now, he sort of really doesn't.

Case in point, he slaps Vaas' hand away and makes a face. Though, that transforms into something a little more contemplative. ]

Too bad we didn't find it sooner. [ He holds up his hand with the mostly missing finger. ] Coulda swapped it out.

[shabby]

[ Vaas arches an eyebrow, curious about where this is going, and then eyes Jason's stumpy finger when he holds up his hand. He glances toward the severed hand, then back at Jason's, and snorts. ]

White boy's looking to get some color, no?

[ His grin isn't sharp and mocking for once. He's just joking around, but it's a joke that has to be made. The color of that hand is much darker than Jason's pale ass pampered white boy skin. Even now, after spending so much time in Rook's sun. ]

Might still be able to do it. [ He shrugs. All the movies he's seen, it certainly seems possible. ] Shit's all science-fiction anyway. They can suck us into wormholes or whatever the fuck, they should be able to reanimate a finger.

(stares with a cocked brow, leaning onto a hand...)

Did you find any useful info, or are you two just using that to jerk off?

[shabby]

I knew a guy like that once. Liked to fuck dead things. Very strange guy. He's dead now.

[ Not what she asked, but... At least it's mostly relevant. ]

[doxing]

Guess he's getting his payback for that, now, with all the little worms going to town on him.

(wiggles her fingers until they're off-screen... YOU GET WHAT YOU GIVE...)

[dudebro]

[ He shouldn't be laughing. But, he's totally laughing. ]

Dunno, kind of a dead weight, you know?

[ l m a o; he thinks he's funny. ]

[doxing]

(JASON, she's trying not to laugh now, fuck you... but hers is a weird mixture of alcohol and exasperation.)

Oh my god, that's gotta be a "no". At least you boys are enjoying yourselves.

[angele]

You aren't a little freaked out by that?

[dudebro]

by what??
death? no not really

[angele]

Really? Most everyone who's found... the body parts seem to be pretty upset.

[shabby]

No. Soylent Green is a good movie.

[angele]

I think I'm missing a piece of this conversation...

[nodyinteam]

Th-th... [Nekomaru looks pale and sick for a moment, before he cries out.]

THAT'S A HUMAN HAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNDDDD!!!

[dudebro]

Yeah, man. [ Jason just nods oh so sagely. ] Yeah it definitely is a human hand.

[nodyinteam]

But... why?! Why do you have a human hand?! What happened??

[shabby]

[ Vaas gives him a perplexed stare. ]

What the fuck else would it be?

[nodyinteam]

I DON'T KNOOOOWWW!!

BUT WHY IS IT EVEN THERE TO BEGIN WITH?!

video; un: jace

[estrayer]

[ No. ]

Are you kidding me?

Someone just lost a hand. You better hope whatever took it is long gone.

[ Mundanes. He shouldn't even be surprised. ]

[shabby]

Lost more than a hand, hermano. Silly bastard lost some fingers too. Maybe an arm.

[ He shrugs. Who the fuck even knows. ]

Probably a lot more than that.

[estrayer]

[ And then there were two. ]

I'm still waiting for the punchline. We don't all think this is something to joke about, man.

[dudebro]

[ No, no he really shouldn't be surprised. ]

Dude, what even? If they're still here, that's probably a good fuckin' thing, don't you think? Someone can catch 'em then. If they're gone it'll just be some fucking, like, space mystery.

[hellshot]

Another corpse? This is starting to get a little out of hand.

[Ha ha ha ha.

Also, he swears he has nothing to do with this.]

Mulched up just like the other ones, or are you only dealing with digits here. [He can hear you in the background, Vaas.] Seems a waste.

[shabby]

[ Now ordinarily, Vaas doesn't bother with puns. But for his best friend Death, he will make an exception. ]

Hard to come to grips with, no?

[ From the way he smiles, it isn't hard at all. ]

[dudebro]

[ Jason laughs because lmao he knew Grim had it in him. ]

Two hands and some blood. [ See? He's being helpful and truthful. ] Didn't have anything fun like the others, apparently.

[ No one said anything about tactful, tho. ]
