[color=0047ab]"Wait, you named your weapon?"[/color] A dark blue haired girl asked quizzically raising an eyebrow. For the moment she had leaned against the back wall of the ever crowding bar and idly stirred her drink with the decorative straw it was served with.

[color=7851a9] "Well yeah.”[/color] Xander replied casually to the girls inquiry, [color=7851a9]“Doesn’t everyone?"[/color]

[color=0047ab]“Not really.”[/color] She said with a shrug and in a very condescending tone. 

[color=7851a9]“Oh…”[/color] Was all the sniper could muster before his hand reached up and began scratching the back of his neck. [color=7851a9]“Not even drone users?”[/color]

[color=0047ab]“Nope.”[/color] The girl said accompanied with an eye roll.

[color=7851a9]“I see.”[/color] The boy broke eye contact with the girl as his pale face began to turn a light pick hue.

[color=0047ab] “You should probably check with someone in the Gold guild, they’re more into stuff like that. In fact, I’ll let you do that now.”[/color] The girl pushed herself from the wall and began walking to another corner of the bar

[color=7851a9]“Oh. Okay. Well it was nice chatting with you.”[/color] Xander managed to say before letting out a defeated sigh. [color=7851a9]“That’s what, strike four tonight?”[/color] He said into his near empty glass of iced tea. [color=7851a9]“This is why you stick to dungeons, Xander. Much easier to let your aim do the talking.”[/color]

Finishing off his drink, he pushed through the crowd and made his way back to the bar for a refill. After setting his glass down to be taken by one of the staff, he pulled out his phone to check the news. Huh, new zombie horde mode? He could get behind that. Might finally be a way for Crusader and Scourger members to play together. Not to mention Pestilent Emerald and some of the other Guardians would want to get started on a walkthrough or guide as soon as they could.

Once he was caught up he slid his phone back into his pocket just in time to see none other than the Scourger deputy herself sit down and order a meal. In an instant a hundred ideas popped into Xander’s mind. A sarcastic quip, a meanspirited comment, hell even the thought of pouring that strawberry shake over her scummy head crossed by. After all her and the rest of the Scourgers just sat there during that raid yet had the audacity to start complaining when it failed. In the end his better judgment won out and he decided to let it go. She was the only one to actually try and help after all. Speaking of, why did she even try and help?

[color=7851a9]“Hey. Graphite, right?”[/color] He said turning to face the scarlet player with one arm propped against the counter. [color=7851a9]“Can I ask something? What was the point of joining us at the end of that raid? You must have known we weren’t doing too hot. You could have just had the rest of your guild move in and wipe us out for whatever exp you could.”[/color]
