Vacationing

[sentryslinger]

[Continuing this thread, in which Spy has convinced Engineer to spend a vacation with him. Fishing, fine dining, and some enemy bonding ensue.


Engineer steps into the elevator, hitting the button for their floor, pulling at his collar to loosen that next button.]

Hey, thanks again for the dinner and the suit. I'll have to put it to use some other time to justify your spendin' money on all this.

Eets natures' way of saying we should spend more time togezzer.

[Alone. Together. In a hotel room.]

At least we have much better accommodations zhan we did when we first met.

[sentryslinger]

True.

[He glances Spy's way.]

You're never going to forgive me for leavin' you with Pyro, are ya?

[not_onyourside]

Never. Zhat was four days of hell.

[Four days of being squished and fed cookies and dressed up.]

I could have died you realize.

[sentryslinger]

I had faith you'd make it out of there in one piece.

[not_onyourside]

And eef I did not?

[sentryslinger]

I can't imagine you wouldn't have, to be honest.

[not_onyourside]

I am not sure eef zhat ees a compliment or not.

[sentryslinger]

I'm just sayin' that I'm confident in your skills to get out of any situation. That, and I honestly don't think that Pyro would've hurt you.

[not_onyourside]

Because all zhe Pyros like you. Zhey do not like me. You are probably not as flammable.

[sentryslinger]

They'd like you if you gave 'em a chance.

[not_onyourside]

I would razzer not. Besides, I cannot understand zhem.

[sentryslinger]

Don't tell me a little ol' language barrier is going to stop you?

[not_onyourside]

Eet would not stop me een ozzer zhings.

Why are you so insistent on zhis?

[sentryslinger]

Because I know they're just tryin' to get along with everyone. It ain't always easy for 'em -- same as you.

[not_onyourside]

Are you sure you are not just seeing what you want to see?

[sentryslinger]

If I was, I'd still see you as a backstabber without a shred of humanity under that mask.

[not_onyourside]

Zhat ees what you want to see?

[sentryslinger]

It's not what I want to see, but it's what my gut tells me to see.

[not_onyourside]

Hmm. I suppose zhat ees reasonable.

How about a compromise? You attempt to relax occasionally, and I will not avoid all Pyros like zhey have a fiery form of plague.

[He'll still be 50 feet at all times, but at least he won't run away screaming.]

[sentryslinger]

I'll be holdin' ya to that next time we run into one while I'm holed up at your base.

[not_onyourside]

Mmm..

[Then he brightens.]

So you are planning to let me hold you captive some more?

[sentryslinger]

[He laughs, but he probably shouldn't.]

Not plannin' on it. You won't get me back in a RED base anytime soon unless you hogtie me in the night and drag me there yourself.

[not_onyourside]

I will certainly keep zhat option een mind.

[A few raindrops splish down, telling of the coming storm.]

And now I zhink our best option ees getting dessert een bed.

[sentryslinger]

[He frowns at the sky.]

Feels like we hardly did anything today. Then again, I did sleep through the movie.

[not_onyourside]

I still have not gotten to fly a kite.

Unfortunately vacation places such as zhis are short on indoor activities.

[At least ones Engineer would agree to be involved in.]
