"Yeah, He's a good guy, and he's a carpenter and probably could do some work for you if you asked" Victor told Tommy and nodded at hearing someone feinted on Tommy, it certainly wasn't a nice situation to experiance, and it was a bit comforting to know somwone else understood how that felt.
"Probably would work out well, if you had some tough fabric or something to keep from wearing down, and then padded the inside to be easier on your hands when you moved around"
Victor looked towards the TV screen asin the movie the security gates in the mental asylum got tripped and locked the people inside.

Tommy nodded a few times, wondering just how the hell he was going to do that with his hands as they were...maybe someone with more opposable thumbs than he had could do it for me. He shook his head in thought before glancing at Victor and then the movie. "Yeah...they took away my bed a while ago...got no place to sleep. Think they want me to...um...do the bat thing I guess.." he says with a shrug.
"...all of a sudden this movie hits a lot closer to home," he mutters out as he watches the patients murdering everyone in the asylum.

"They took your bed?" Victor asked with a frown, he didn't like the idea of Tommy having to do the 'bat thing'. So that was why Tommy wanted the pull up bar put in his duplex.
"Thatsss...not right, you ssshould at leassst be able to have bed availible to you, I mean, how could they exspect you to try hanging upssside down from sssomething to sssleep? your feet can't be that ssstrong already are they?, I doubt they'd want to risssk having you break your neck or sssomething from waking up from a nightmare and falling headfirssst to the floor" The thought of that was bothersome, as wasTommy's comment about the movie.
"Probably be better if you borrowed one of the couchess in here, then you'd have sssomething to ssssleep on."

"Yeah, tell me about it...I dunno...but something tells me they're strong enough..." he says quietly, remembering how it felt when the claws on his feet dug into Zach's midsection like a vice. He shuddered slightly.
"Actually, the couch thing's not a bad idea...just need to find some people with working opposable thumbs to move it." He paused for a moment, thinking about what he just said...and started chuckling at the absurdity of it.

Victor looked at the couch and back at Tommy after he mentioned the opposable thumb thing. "Well, I couldn't really lift it, but probably could help push the thing along, you're in 54 right? itsss not that far away."
He did want to help Tommy out, it wasn't fair that Tommy had his bed taken from him.

Tommy's head perks up as the Maryln Manson version of Sweet Dreams are Made of These comes on. He'd always like both versions...at least until Manson started to sound like he was puking into the microphone. His head bobbed a little to it, his ears picking up quality in the music he'd never heard of before. When Victor spoke, it snapped Tommy out of it though. "Hmm? Oh...heh, fifty four's a second floor duplex. Besides...now that I think about it, it's obvious the labs don't want me to have a bed to sleep on...they'll probably just knock me out and steal it while I'm asleep." He shrugs in his defeatist attitude.
With a sigh, he pulls out a package of blood from his cargo pants pocket.

Victor shook his head when Tommy said it was a second floor duplex, the lizardman had completely forgot the odd numbered duplexes were on the ground level, Evens were the second floor.
"They're a mean bunch of basssstardsss if they'd do that to you again, they ought to at least provide you ssssomething to ssssleep on even if its just a matressss" Victor frowned in disaproval, shaking his head
"Well you could try ssssleeping in here then, or...." The lizardman glanced at the packet of blood for a bit, distracted, but then remembered what he was going to say. "We could share my duplexss, If you're active at night while I'm up during the day, you could sssleep in my bed during the day and jusssst trade off at night" Victor suggested "at leassst until you got sssome furnature in your duplexss and that pull up bar"

Tommy nods as Victor speaks, "Yeah, I hear you...goddamn bastards...But if I had to guess it's one of those behavioral modification experiments or something, you know? See how long before I crack..." He shakes his head with a sigh.
"Heh..tried that...doesn't work when people try to use the place during the day," he says with a grin.
At his next comment though, he openly looked surprised toward Victor. "...you mean it? Like...seriously? You're not ******** with me, right?" he says, surprised...but also rather happy about it.

Victor didn't like the idea of the labs trying to experiment to change Tommy's behavor.... with the people populating the island already changing into animals, experimenting on trying to change people's behavor or thought processs seemed even more cruel, and more frightening.
"I am sssseriousss Tommy, and definately not ssscrewing around on thissss, I did sssay I'd help out if you ever did need it, and its the leassst I can do" Victor smiled slightly when he said that, he really did mean it.

Tommy paused for a moment, looking at the television, "...huh...how about that. And here I was thinking I'd just get a meal and a movie out of the night." He grins and pokes a straw through the packet of blood. "Thanks man, I appreciate it, really I do," he says to Victor.
"And I won't be there long either. I just need to find Gaius and see if he can help me out."

Victor nodded, watching the Batman drink the blood from the packet, glacing back at the movie where one of the female characters was getting electicuted in an electro-shock therapy device.
"You can ssstay assss long asss you need Tommy, it really isssn't a problem, I'm happy to be able to help anyone"

"Well thanks again, man..." he says with sincerity. He glances back to the screen, not really needing to since he's seen this movie well over ten times. He smirks and shakes his head before looking back to Victor.
He blinks a few times in thought and then grins, "Last name's Christian by the way. Tommy Christian. Where're you from?"

"you're Welcome" Victor said politely as he watched some other person in the movie meet their untimely death.
"Zimmerman" Victor told the Bat man "Victor Zimmerman, native to Maine, father was a tailor and I had to learn ssssome of that but I moved and lived in Bossston, Masssss for a while to earn money and go to college, that whole deal, where you orginally from Tommy?"

Tommy nods a few times as the Vincent Price look-a-like gets shot a few times. "Maine? Huh...yeah, I'm originally from New Orleans myself. After the hurricaine though, my family moved to Florida...though by that time I was already at the Air Force Academy. Heh, reason I ended up here...was on a an ops flight to Aviano Italy. Think the plane hit a flock of seagulls or something..."

"I got grandparentsss in Florida, they sssstay down there jusssst about full time now, they ussssed to move back and forth between Maine and florida"
Victor had to shift position again, stretching his chest arms while on the Tv screen, where Mrs. Price was being devoured by the darkness that been trapped underneith the asylum.
"Never been to New Orleansss sssorry to sssay, been up and down the eassst coassst but never traveled out to the gulf coassst, I'm here caussse they tricked me into finissshing an internssship with them"
