Now it was his turn to feel sad. "Thank you for the offer Argus, but I don't have anyone specific. Relatives are no longer alive or don't even know I'm related to them. Friends are old and senile...best place you can give my memories to is probably to someone you can trust in the BOSA. Hell, you can keep my memories if you want." Richard says offhandedly as he looked outside a window, appreciating the peaceful yet busy morning streets of the city as they drove past.

The golem woman nodded in understanding. Though the porcelain girl may look young, her words carried wisdom beyond her years. She understands how such complex things like emotion and feelings worked while she had been struggling with for years, and that earned her the respect from the golem agent.

Updating Databanks...
Favored color set to: "BLUE"

System Notification

Soon after the quick notification, the requisitioned vehicle was soon driven and parked before them. To the untrained eye, the outdated and plain black colored Ford Crown Victoria was nothing more than a cheap looking car. Though in truth, the vehicle's true beauty is hidden with whatever the R&D Division could possibly fit inside of the car but not compromising its plain and nondescript appearance. Though it in itself puts any non BOSA issued land vehicle to shame. She then enters the car and quickly gives the basic specifications of the car. "Standard Issue BOSA Ford Crown Victoria. Magitek engine and electronics, reinforced frame, windows, and chassis, tier 2 enchantments and runes of protection, and user friendly." She looks to Essie. "Shall we go?"

I, the Demon King, Will Summon My Own Damned Heroes!

Asteria's reassurance along with Ardur's actions caused the young dire rat to alleviate some of the stress he was feeling, he didn't want to leave the slime but Ardur was right. Though as he gained resolve and was about to leave the cave, Jason sprung up and lashed out at Digbie and Asteria. Ed was taken aback, he had never seen the slime lash out against allies. Before he could do something, Jason's personality seemed to regain control of his body and explained that the situation. The fight wasn't over and Jason needed him and Digbie to follow him outside to deal with Crispy and the remnants of the goblin horde.

It was a macabre sight to see that the bugbear's head as a grim parody of a helmet. Jason talked to the wisp, things seemed to go well but soon the wisp had told Jason to silence himself before sending a glinting blade made of mana towards Jason and screaming to the goblins that Jason was the one they wanted. Things fell apart quickly and Jason roared out a anger and hate filled cry. It was the most powerful cry he heard the slime utter. Sending spires of stone towards the burned goblin. Snapping back to reality, he had to look for Mourningstar. She had a lot of things to answer to.

'The FUCK was she thinking?!' The thought ran through his mind rather quickly as he found the wisp carrying what seemed to be a cocoon of sorts. Quickly sneaking up behind the already panicked wisp, he dashes over to her front and blocks her way. "WHY THE FUCK DID YOU ATTACK JASON?! I THOUGHT WE WERE ALLIES!" He screams at Mourningstar, his voice laced with anger and confusion. They had worked together to take down Rattle skull, why would she suddenly turn against them?

Richard notices the small tinge of sadness in Argus' voice. He wasn't sure who was the woman that he lost, but it was clear as day that she was someone significant in his life. "I'm not sure if it amounts to much, Argus, but condolences to your loss." Not wanting to prolong the topic that the dijin clearly was uncomfortable with, he drops it and heads to the passenger seat and waits for his partner to enter the car. "Lets deal with the zombies first, I don't think you'd like to see me hose some poor soul's headstone with vomit." Richard states, hoping to lighten the mood.

It was a rather grim proposition the dijin offered to Richard. It really depended on the type of zombie they were dealing with, but Richard knew that if he were to get infected it would be best if he were to be put down. He couldn't risk it. "It would be best if I were to be...disposed of if I were ever infected. Too dangerous an event to let an individual such as myself turn." The answer was straight to the point and held conviction and determination. The prospect of dying scared him, but the greater good was far more important than his life.

The walk to the motor pool was almost uneventful to the two, that is until the little doll wished to communicate with the golem agent. She turned her head slightly to get a better look at the gestures and movements made by Essie. "It is possible that Griffin is like that. Though, the burden he carries as a representative of the Elder Council requires him to keep a professional outlook and behavior. One significant enough mistake and the repercussions he and the bureau will face would be dire. Possibly even to the point where the director himself would have to personally intervene. I am aware of your powers and capabilities, Essie. It will surely be of much aid to the task at hand. Though if ever you would need help in locating the shapeshifter, please do not hesitate to tell me. The scrying spells allow me to scan up to 10,000 individuals instantaneously, at the cost of significantly depleting mana reserves as well as raising my core temperature."

The little doll girl then paused momentarily, and proceeded to ask if she liked the Bureau of Supernatural Affairs, her favored color, and even stated that they were friends. Astra was still in the process of understanding how humans worked and acted, but she answered the doll as best as she could. "Those are rather complex questions, though I would like to hope that we are truly friends. Camaraderie in the workplace is statistically proven to increase productivity and increase general levels of morale." The golem woman then went silent to think about how she felt about the BOSA as well as a favored color.

It took a significant time to do so, up to the point that she had written up the requisition form for a standard issue vehicle, but she finally had an answer that seemed most 'human' and appropriate to say. "I do like living here. As the human saying goes: "Home is where the heart is." Though confusing as most human anatomies have the heart within their chest cavity, the saying is actually idiomatic to regard where an individual's family or loved ones are. Given that, I would say the BOSA is my 'home' and the people in it are my 'family.' Though for color, I cannot say. Many colors are meant to express emotions and feelings, though I have yet to understand things such as those concepts."

"Nothing much..." The man pondered for a bit while they walked. "Hmm...I might have one though. Any idea how getting bit by a zombie would affect me? I mean, yeah I know I have regenerative powers to some extent, but what if I'm not immune like you are?"

@KatherinWinter@Raining
"Understood, Griffin. I will bring Essie and myself to the site and meet up with you there." The golem woman then turned to face Essie. "Come along now, we have to go to the motor pool and request a vehicle from them. Feel free to ask any questions, I have extensive knowledge from bureau databanks and am only restricted access to sensitive information." Astra tells the little doll while moving out of the room.

The rookie agent nods with interest at the fact that was given. Doing one last pat down of his person, the man nods in satisfaction."I agree that who ever did that would die, but you'd be like superman for a second before your heart explodes a second after." The man smirks and shakes his head side to side gently at the comparison made by his partner. Nobody would be that crazy to concoct a stimulant like that, though considering how many possibilities it offered, he wouldn't be surprised if the R&D Division is tempted to make something akin to it for safe field use. "I'm ready when you are."

Anything specific or important about the zombie case that we need to know before Richard and Argus progress any further?

"That is a terrifying thought, Argus." The man pauses a moment. "Well...anything that pushes you to a corner really. I still remember the time that I felt most scared." The quartermaster then returns to face the duo and presents them the items they requested atop the counter. "Here you go, gents. A runed ash wood truncheon, two flasks of holy water, a small bag of purified sea salt, A reinforced canister of rocket fuel, finally a flask of holy oil fresh from the bishop himself." The man then takes the form and adds the additional flask of holy oil to the list. Signing the form, he places the form in a clip board and quickly logs the transaction in the ledger. "Happy hunting."

"I suppose we are all set." Richard says while checking if his pouches and other parts of his outfit was secure.

The golem woman stares at Griffin for a scant few seconds as she downloaded files and software from bureau databases and soon she offers the vampire a quick nod. "Yes, Griffin. I am now proficient in driving vehicles ranging from bikes to classified vehicles being investigated by the Research and Development Department that I cannot divulge any information regarding."
