Brie was here, and not yet safe yet. It made him worried. He had been thinking about it before he bumped into someone.
"Oh sorry about that-Oh hey Rook!" He grinned, "How are you doing?"

Rook had been wandering around the casino, still looking for any other possible members of his faction, when he ran into--what was his name again? Alex? Yes that sounded accurate. The fact that he had encountered him at all didn't seem to surprise him in the least. He had seen both Brie and the doctor already, so he should have figured that the third stooge would have been caught as well.
"Oh? What's this? You're calling me by my name now?" He arched a brow at the other man and gave him a look of amusement. "And just when I was getting so fond of calling you, old man." Alas, if Alex was calling him by name, he should probably do the same. After all, he much preferred it to be being called 'kid.'
"Uhh well." He pretended to give it some thought, before he turned the usual flat look he'd become so accustomed to giving Alex, on him. "About as good as anyone who's been kidnapped and collared. How about you?"OOC  Coin Goal - 199/275Character's name: Rook

Rook had the sarcastic-ness and attitude of a kid but dealing with the situation now, he didn't think much of the kid part of this. He rubbed his neck, accidentally hitting the collar and then moving his hand up higher.
It was hard to pretend everything was normal when they were collared.
"About the same. Pretty bored though. I am not fond of gambling games. I like the board games you know. It's too bad you can't come to the apartments to play!"

To be honest, Rook half expected Alex to make some snide remark of his own, but turns out he just wasn't in the mood for it. Perhaps the cold collar locked around his neck had sobered him up a little.
"I'm not really a game person in general. I'm more an outdoors kind of person." Which was why, being cooped up for a month was slowly driving him around the bend. He hated not being able to go on at least his daily runs. He was absolutely not one for being boxed in, collared, and expected to follow ridiculous rules for some ridiculous game. "I'll pass on the board games too. No offense."OOC Coin Goal - 199/275Character's name: Rook

Alex fell into line next to Rook and shrugged, thinking of his 'usual' activities he couldn't do anymore. working out at the gym, training for police work. Playing games with his family. A family that didn't exist anymore, where they went? He'd never know. Most likely dead.
The less attachments to the world, the better he was when the virus took him. Positive thoughts after all!
"Oh running? Is that why you are so good running away from the zombies? You know like number one rule in Zombie land! Cardio Cardio Cardio!"

Rook made a face, confused by the reference. "I don't get it?" Should he add that, along with not really being a gamer, that he wasn't a couch potato either? Then again not much point. Instead he chose to answer his question. "I suppose so. I trained for runs. Mostly long distance and cross country, but I wasn't too bad at sprints and relay either." Personally he enjoyed the cross country over track field. Better scenery.

"You haven't seen Zombieland?" He stared at Rook, "Have you seen any zombie movies?" He tilted his head, "There is a bunch of pre-established rules about zombies you know? Movies made it all happen. It makes you wonder if we are living one right now. Or a series of movies. You know? Conspiracy." Alex laughed and looked surprised at the question.
"I was a cop! Just graduated from the academy." He nodded, "I got average marks but a lot of cops said I was good with street talking!" He rubbed on his jeans. "Younger then that, just an average joe you know? Haha that rhymed."

At that Rook gave a snort of laughter. "Dude, we're living it and you surprised that I haven't seen the show or films?" Now that amusing on so many levels. "Oh yeah? Well I bet none of those movies prepared you for this particular situation, now did they?" Last he checked there were always flaws when you compared tv to reality and in this case, those flaws could out right get you killed. No thank you.
"You?" Now he stopped dead in his tracks and gawked at the man. "You were a cop?" There was a very suspicious look, like he didn't believe a word he said, before he turned his head slightly and muttered under his breathe. "Looked like they were scrapping the barrel when they picked you up." That or their standards were a lot lower than he expected.OOC ( Reached 450 words in this RP +20 coin ) Coin Goal - 224/275Character's name: Rook

"I am more surprised you haven't seen that popular of a movie now. You know? Everyone has seen Zombieland, or like 28 days later or even Walking dead! Walking dead is huge! Have you seen that?" Come on Rook, Don't leave poor Alex hanging like this!
"I was a cop." He puffed his chest out, proudly. He had been a damn good cop...for the short four months that he had been one! It had been a good ride! A good ride indeed! He had learned under a good man and even better friend.
Another attachment he hated thinking about.
"Aww, don't say that Rook? What makes you better then me?" He rose a brow, "You don't look like from the top tier basket in the store, yourself. I don't think any of us do after a month in hell. We're in hell right? Feels like this would be hell.

There was an exasperated sigh as he crossed his arms over his chest. "Well, maybe not everyone spends their time indoors. I told you already, I like being outside and being active." He shrugged, walking past the man before he paused in his step. "Oh and to answer your question. No, I haven't seen them."
Though Alex beamed with pride, Rook merely nodded in a somewhat dismissive manner. "You sounded like you were busy as a cop. I take it there were a lot of parking tickets in your designated area then? I can only imagine all those awful hand cramps." Though the words were insulting, the tone was light, clearly indicating that he was teasing the man.
"I never said I was better than you." He stated, "And I'll also admit, I didn't go to university to show off my grades. I'll be frank, I find school boring. I only went there for the sports." That had been the idea anyways; to work hard where he needed to and gain a real shot at higher goals. Goals that were otherwise blocked from him if he hadn't been attending the university. Of course this didn't mean that Rook was stupid either. In fact, his major flaw was that he had trouble staying focused.OOC ( Coin amount adjusted due to activity elsewhere ) Coin Goal - 79/130Character's name: Rook
