R26 - Here comes the sun [Video]

[The feed shows Riddick, tired but smirking just barely visibly. He's in the darkness of his room, a big wall of shadow with still squinting silver eyes. The only thing in focus is the pair of rubber-strapped welding goggles dangling close to the screen.]

I like'm and all, but they aren't real... casual. Anyone got some 21st-century style sunglasses I could borrow for a few days?

[Private to Selina]
I don't know how much you like water, but I could do with some solar heat and a little hydrotherapy-- I'm looking to hit the beach and then shop like I'm civilized and rich. You down for that?

Anything you wanna hit while we're back in all the brightness? It ain't Gotham, but somehow I see you fitting in fine anyway. I'll be a little slow, but I'm with you.

Ray Bans.

Do you have'm or are you suggesting them? Either way I'm game.

Well, I did, back home.

You're a warden. Go buy some.

Or give me your card and I'll go buy some.

I was looking for something to wear when I went shopping, though. I might take you up on the errand running thing.

But if you don't come back with my card, I'm coming after you, Toll or no Toll.

Yeah, well, give me the card and come out on the port so you don't get stuck on the Barge. I'll be back with the shades.

FYI, I can totally outrun a death-tolling blind man.

Meet you by the departure point. [The goggles disappear, the feed now shows his credit card, then cuts.]

[And now, because it's good to keep Chris on his toes, Riddick makes his slow way over to ambush him halfway there. Lying in wait will let him conserve his energy stores. Sitting very still for a while? He can do that right now.]

[Chris needs this port more than he can possibly say; this last week's worn hard on him, and half his support group seems to have been death-tolling or were otherwise in the infirmary. So as he walks through the Barge on his way to meet Riddick, he's already packed and ready to go, a backpack slung over his shoulder. It's like being a normal teenager again]

You want me to put you and yours up while I'm out handling hotels-and-kennels before the party starts? Since you're tolling and all, I can do the fiddly bits so you can skip straight to relaxing.

That'd be fucking amazing, actually. Somewhere high up? Preferably that can be bribed about animals, don't know if Selina's willing to leave the babies on board for four days.

Already got it covered. [ He's got Angus, after all. ] I'll grab you guys a suite.

Hope you like ocean views. Can't promise too high, but. I'll meet you and help you all out to the hotel, and then I have no idea where we're going from there.

I'm actually fine with you organizing this. I'm gonna hit the beach and take the inmate to play tourist, that's all the energy I got.

Thank you, by the way.

[That he's injured and isn't fleeing to lick his wounds in private is a testament to just how much he's learned to trust his friends, and how much he's adjusted to barge life in general.]

Not a problem.

[ He likes having family to take care of. ]

Got 'em. They're yours.

You're an angel, B. The kind with a sword.

Flatterer.

Just don't ask me where they came from.

Mm, I'm too tired to be curious. You get along with Selina, right, you wanna hit the city with is? If you don't have plans.

Still under the weather?

Yeah, she's a doll. My plans are still undecided but I'd love to tag along for awhile.

Three days into the toll is a terrible time for a port.

I'ma be playing tourist, buying shit legal, and you're welcome to lean on my card.

Need a shoulder to lean on while we disembark?

Going legal. That's brand new for you, isn't it? [She smiles.] Thanks. If it means anything, I know Los Angeles. I've done many a job there.

Riddick!

[Arthas is pissed.]

...what?

You died to fix the heart. Where are you?

...who told you that.

[He doesn't answer, but his room is very dimly recognizable behind him, there's no helping that.]

Your necromancer.

What.

No. It doesn't matter, some shit went wrong. Forget it, nothing you can do about it anyway.
