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.

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

[deadliestviper]

Flatterer.

Just don't ask me where they came from.

[with_my_teacup]

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.

[deadliestviper]

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.

[deadliestviper]

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.

It is a little odd. I'm enjoying the irony. I can get off the boat alright, but I'm going to pick up a cane in the city, I think.

Tour-guide could be a real good thing, actually. Need to hit up Selina and see what she's in the mood for. Then we'll rely on you.

[deadliestviper]

With the sunglasses and cane you're going to be mistaken for blind. Just so you know.

Let me know what you feel like doing. If I end up with Zack I'll give recommendations.

[with_my_teacup]

There's worse things than being underestimated.

First on my agenda is crash at the waterline for at least four hours --subject to change if Selina's feeling anti-water today.
