Welcome to Gaia! ::

With a shuffling and scuttling of limbs Victor had crawled down to the Beach bar, he knew that earlier that week it had been Mardi Gras, but that wasn't the reason he had gone to get a drink, he had been thinking and spending too much time by himself, and after his talk with Dr.Lockheart that wasn't entirely a good thing. For a while he had been in denial bout his changes and had hoped and thought that his body might be developing towards something Known or at least imagined.

Only to find out that wasn't the fact, his serum was experimental, and all these terrible changes, with the extra limbs, the doublemouth... were Side Effects.

"The concsept of 'experiment' elludesss you, doesssn't it?" Victor muttered under his breath, stretching and standing up, hanging onto the bar as he tried to mix himself a long island ice tea, one of his favorate alchoholic drinks, but mostly was making a mess, his chest arms weren't very good at holding the bottles or the glass, and frequently spilled some of the liquor onto bartop, making him curse at the effort.

"I've been better Tommy, I've been better" Victor told the Bat man as he continued to try and pour the last bit of gin into his glass to finish off his long island ice tea, he had poured everying by eye, and probably had a little too much vodka and rum in it, but it would do, and Victor stuggled onto the barstool, and pulled the glass to him, and drink some of it down.

"How you managing Tommy?"

Victor turned his head enough to look over at Tommy and his glass and morbid mix of blood and vodka. "I talked with a Dr. Lockheart..." Victor gave his drink a stir by shaking the glass in a circular motion and frowning a bit more, tilting his head up to drink from his glass again from his orginal mouth, before setting it down again. "You almossst got yoursself a real bloody mary mixs there"

The lizardman didn't see Tommy's eye twitch, he was too focused on his own drink. "Ssside effectsss, Ssside effectsss and complicationsss, thatss what sshe told me" Victor hissed under his breath and took another drink, feeling the warmth of the alcohol pass though him, and some of the drink dribble down his 'chin' and onto his chest.

"Sssomething to do with mental ssstablizerss or sssomething of that sssort, to keep me from going wild or feral, I guessss it worked, but there were 'complicationsss' at decided to get exsspresssed physscially rather than mentally" Victor drained his glass and coughed, but he grabbed ahold of the bottle of rum and a can of coke, and started to mix them together.

"Not sssure if the trade off wasss worth it, not even the labsss know what effect other ssserumss they might give me might do" Victor hissed unpleasently under his breath, and reached out with his foreleg to push a tall blue bottle of tequila over to send it falling over the other side of the bar and to break and shatter on the ground

Victor drank his rum and coke, finishing off the coca-cola in the can before tossing the can away and onto the sand, noticing Tommy's expression of pain.
"Sssorry about that Tommy..I guessss your earsss are more sssenssitive than mine"

The lizardman sipped more of his drink, tapping his claws on the bartop
"Experimentsss have risssks and complicationsss thatsss what ssshe ssaid... not like they could have tried it on a rat firssst, for asss sssmart they think they are, they are very ssstupid"

Victor nodded and chuckled bitterly, and drank more. "bet sssomeday sssome of thossse haplesssss humanssss in the labssss end up on thissss ssside of the isssland's fencsse" The lizardman hissed and emptied his glass into his mouth.

"Leassst they're ssstuck here with usss" Victor poured himself some rum into his glass, only a shot's worth making it's way into the glass before Victor raised it as well to Tommy.
"Yesss, Happy Mardi Grassss Tommy...and Asssh Wednesssday, Chinesse new yearsss, and any other holiday we can celebrate thisss week"
