Awkward Conversation
It was quiet around the institute, so Fred took this as a moment to renew his supply of sustenance from the kitchen.

	Vlad can't help but laugh at the expression he got out of Fred. "C'mon, there's clothes to cover up anything to prevent that sort of thing, and if you really want there's some image inducers Uncle Kurt used to use. Besides, the local stuff around here and the Salem center are used to us being slightly odd, maybe not to our full extent but it's enough." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Fred half-scowled. "I would prefer not to hide who I am. I recognize the need when it becomes necessary to leave the premises, but I do not see a reason to do so." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hence the 'only if you really want' bit to the image inducer. But not even to explore? I'm sure Sylvie with her chariot would be thrilled to go with you outside the premises too. Hell, I know most of us would go with you, company isn't bad." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I have been on the institute's grounds. I am familiar with the lay of the area," Fred replied. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"No no no Fred! Off the grounds!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	dark_scion 2013-03-16 01:29 pm UTC (link)
	"For what reason?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	under_the_skin 2013-03-16 02:36 pm UTC (link)
	"Why wouldn't you? It's fun, little variety and all." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Fred tried not to think about the times he had spent off the grounds with Sasha. The memories were bittersweet. "..I have no reason to." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Come on Fred, you don't need a reason to do something like that. Wouldn't even need to go to a big city, just around here. Pizza or something you know? Besides, don't they say many scientists think of breakthroughs when they're on a break or doing something else? Doesn't hurt to try." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	dark_scion 2013-03-16 10:24 pm UTC (link)
	"If they say that, I was not aware of it," Fred replied dryly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Oh you know, Einstein and the patent office work for example, among others. Why not try it? Who knows, you might like it a bit." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Fred stares at Vlad stoically for a time. "...What are you proposing?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	under_the_skin 2013-03-16 10:56 pm UTC (link)
	Vlad has to laugh a bit. "You make me sound like an evil mastermind offering you a way out of a sure demise. Nothing so sinister. Just head out for pizza one day, what'd you say?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	dark_scion 2013-03-16 11:05 pm UTC (link)
	Fred didn't know what was so humorous, but it was probably not worth investigating. "...that would depend on my metabolism for that day." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	under_the_skin 2013-03-16 11:07 pm UTC (link)
	Vlad took that as a yes and gave Fred a big smile. "Fair enough. There's non-pizza options, we'll find you something carnivorous if it's that sort of day." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	dark_scion 2013-03-16 11:09 pm UTC (link)
	"...I'll consider it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	under_the_skin 2013-03-16 11:13 pm UTC (link)
	"Perfect! When the weather's a tad better we'll go," he grinned and took his sandwich, swiped a can of pop from the fridge and gave Fred a thumbs up. "By the way, nice running into you Fred." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	dark_scion 2013-03-16 11:22 pm UTC (link)
	Fred's eyebrows crinkled. "But you walked in." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	under_the_skin 2013-03-16 11:32 pm UTC (link)
	Vlad seems slightly surprised for a moment before raising an eyebrow and looking very amused at Fred. "And they say you have no sense of humor...sneaky one Fred, I like it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	dark_scion 2013-03-16 11:37 pm UTC (link)
	"Right..humor." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	under_the_skin 2013-03-16 11:47 pm UTC (link)
	"You'll get a hang of it." (Reply to this)(Parent)
