"Well boo hoo. I like what I'm becoming. Its tough, when they don't lock me down that is."
His phone interrupted his train of thought and he picked up twitter with a frown.
Only to look up just in time for Dakota to shove the hands he was looking disgusted about right in his face.
He just stopped and looked mortified for a few long moments, realising as he got his senses back that the other man was gone. "I'm going to ******** murder him." he snarled angrily, before typing something into his phone.
"Seen as how my face is now ******** TAINTED FOREVER. You wouldn't happen to carry I dunno, hand wipes or something around with you because FUUUCK." he shuddered convulsively, looking like he wanted to wipe his face with his hands but scared to touch it.
Still furious he added something else to twitter before glaring back at her. "But yeah. You'll only lose me because people can't handle me."

Rin tentatively offered him a small packet of already opened wet ones. Welp. There went all the remaining edges of Rep's sexiness forever. Not that he had much left.
"An-anywho...," segued right back into the initial topic, "Have you seriously learned nothing from any of this? And what about my other question - do you just expect me to be alone forever now because you can't be decent to anyone you're not with?"

He fussily wiped at his face with the wipes until his skin looked somewhat pink and almost like he was blushing rather than just scrubbed raw. He'd get pay back, he was determined.
Trying to salvage what was left of his dignity he finished off the last of the hot chocolate in the mug, shaking his head at her. "I learned plenty from everything that's happened. It just so happens that wanting to be a squashy, murderable human wasn't part of those lessons. I want to be tougher, so much ******** tougher and that involves being more monstrous in the eyes of the weak. What I did learn though was I just need to be much ******** better at making people believe I'm a nice guy. "
He was reluctant to answer her other question but did anyway. "I can be decent to people I haven't ********. Just most people are ******** idiots, you just happen to gravitate to the worst ******** sort of people, people who I can't stand in the slightest, no matter how hard I try. So no, I don't expect you to be alone. I expect you to have some ******** standards."

"Then who the ******** on this island is up to your amazing standards, hm?" she glared at him irritably. Just... avoiding the main topic. He was starting to sound like a real monster now.

"I just know the people who aren't." he held up a hand and seemed to rhyme off on his fingers. "Marcus, Dwight, Jerry, Sasha."
"And I swear to god, if you ever flirt with Marcus you are dead to me."

"God no," she looked mortified at the thought of Marcus, "I'd sooner scoop my own eyeballs out with a ******** plastic spoon. Him and Dakota."
"Soooo you can't name anyone you'd give a yes to, is that what I'm hearing here?" she gave him a deadpan look, "Because the only other friend I have is Jordan and I guess Syd and Ami are okay, too. What about them? They're both women though, so."

"I don't really agree with gay s**t." he said without a trace of sarcasm. "I don't see the appeal of women. But if that's what you insist on, then at the very least its better than the others I listed off." He shrugged his shoulders.
"Outside that list, I don't give a ********. I just don't want ammunition falling into the hands of my enemies." he paused, thinking maybe this wasn't quite enough justification for denying her relationships with the people he'd mentioned from her point of view. "Oh and I'm looking out for you too. I don't want you to get hurt right?"

Harrison slid beside Rep with a cafeteria tray in hand. He'd piled a few slabs of gravied mystery meat together on the main groove, along with overcooked greens, powdered mashed potatoes, and two sugar cookies.
He looked tired.
Rin was an easy enough target to blame, what with all the knocking at 5 AM, but the real reason was that Jordan spent the night somewhere else. And he dreamed about Julie again. His morning routine had been broken up- he'd still fed Killer, but hadn't exercised, showered, or shaved.
He silently handed Rep one of the cookies.

"Look, I'd ******** gush with you about hot guys all day but you don't like any of the guys I know and have nothing better to offer me okay," she paused when he paused and just frowned grimly, "You honestly think I'd turn on my friend for some tail, seriously? As if I even knew anything that would hurt you anyway, all I know is what you like d--," well, hello Harrison.
Rin was staring at you now. Like the massive pink pachaderm in the room.

"I do actually. I think you'd fall for their bullshit and I'd be out in the cold."
Harrison's arrival had drawn his attention what seemed like fleetingly, but in that time he'd noticed with a twinge of guilt how worn out the other man looked. He didn't even say hello, it was implicit in the way he gratefully took the cookie.
Taking a pleased bite of it, he waved it at Rin as he added. "You just need to meet better guys."

Harrison turned over the meat, greens, and potatoes with a fork, until they were folded into a heterogenous lump.
"Candace has the same problem," he added, looking back at Rin. "Matter of league." He took a bite. "Although I guess I oughta go ahead and classify Jerry as a ten, in spite of evidence to the contrary."

"Stop assuming I'm stupid and can't handle myself, let alone that I'd hand out any of your ******** secrets for a lay," she crossed her arms huffily, "WHAT better guys? You can't even name any!"
Rin gave Harrison's plate the most mortified looking over before her hackles seemed to lower, "League as in what?" was he implying noone wanted anything to do with her?, "Ten? On a scale of what exactly?"

"I don't care how many women throw themselves at him, Jerry is ******** not a ten." Rep stated firmly. "Not in any ******** reality"
Rin got another slightly patronising eyeroll."I don't trust your ability to keep secrets. And I TOLD YOU. Any guys who aren't ******** Marcus, Dwight or Jerry are better than them. I'm not a ******** dating service, I don't do the looking for you."
He self righteously demolished more of the cookie.

Harrison mirrored Rin's expression.
"What do you mean, outta what? It's not geometry. Fives go with fives, threes with threes, and so on. You got a little leeway, but playing outside of your division's just asking for trouble."
He gave Rep a is she for real look.
"And there's plenty of guys, damn. I mean, not better guys than present company. But guys." Harrison pried open his milk carton. And Jordan.

"I mean, is that a rating of ten out of ten, a hundred, a thousand, what?" she looked irritable again, "Oh? Just what is my ranking then because William here seems to think I'm somehow too good for anyone I choose on my own," grumble grumble.
