[Ah, the old pants wipe! Can't go wrong with that! Wade sees nothing wrong with that.]
An adventure for tacos, and then cookies, and then ice cream, and then whatever else you feel like eating. [An adventure to potentially make Nate puke if they're not careful, but Wade isn't letting that kind of negative thinking in!]
( it's a lot more than nate can ever say he's had before in his life, so. why not try and find some semblance of normalcy here? even if it's still like a prison world. )
Not unless you can die from a stomach ache? [He smacks Nate on the back, then starts toward the door until remembers his distinct lack of clothes.]
Hang tight, I'm gonna put on some pants.
[Wade heads to his room to toss on some sweatpants and a Power Rangers t-shirt before coming back out to the main room and sliding on his rainbow crocs. He takes on a self-important air and he waves Nate to the door.] Let us depart! The journey may be treacherous, but the spoils! The spoils will be well worth it!
( not that nate is one to judge clothes [have you seen his mesh top and leather jacket look??] but when wade returns with what he's wearing, he can't help but question... a lot of things really. so many things. )
Anyone ever tell you you're sort of weird?
( rhetorical question, really, but. he goes ahead and follows the other out. his life is in your hands, wade. )
No. [Wade deadpans. He stares at him blankly from his spot at the open door.] Literally, no one has ever said that to me before.
[He leans toward him when he gets closer.] Maybe you're the weird one.
[And then they are off!] There's a good taco place not far from here. Ooh and we could get margaritas. [He gives him a once over suddenly.] How old are you?
( he could be. given the fact that he was made to be a weapon of war and didn't have the sort of childhood a normal kid should have. he doesn't even know his parents. just knows about them. so yeah, maybe he is.
the question, however, gets him to roll his eyes. )
( a glance is tossed the other's way as he goes about explaining his situation and nate keeps quiet. it's strange to hear wade speak about a man who, by blood, is his father and yet, he knows next to nothing about... but seems to know about him. timelines and all. frustrating, to say the least. )
Yeah, I guess I need to find one of those for myself.
It would help. But you can probably find a good one since you can sneak a peek to see what kind of person they are before agreeing to sign, right? And at least they give us that, the choice to refuse a contract. After it's signed? You're kinda screwed until it's over if it's a bad choice...
[Wade is finding himself protective of Nate. Because of Cable. Because of Scott. Also because he's kind of adorable, like a stray puppy. So he may have to give the once over to whoever he did sign with. Although he'd probably have to get in line behind Scott. And probably Jean too.]
There are quite a few assholes here. And this place sure does love to make those sorts of people Dominants.
( it does help to be able to read the intentions of others. to peek into their minds and see what sort of person they are. yet he's still not so sure he wants to go for any of this. still isn't so sure that he's incapable of fighting it. )
I know the type.
( apocalypse, he mostly refers to. )
You're really ok with this? ( he stops then, looking to wade. seeming... frustrated. ) You're ok with just going along with all this and playing their game?
I wouldn't say I'm okay with it. But this place isn't going to break me any more than I already am. [He doesn't really care what happens to himself. Now, how it hurts other people? That's an entirely different animal.]
If you're hatching a plan to try and blow this place to hell, count me in. A lot of people have tried though.
[He looks around, in a bit of frustration.] Take my katanas and just start cutting through SIN guard? Cause I'll do it, I've got no problem with it, but what's that gonna solve? They'll capture me, then throw me in realignment. A lot more powerful people than me are stuck here and they haven't been able to beat the system either.
nate sighs after wade goes through all of that and cocks his head to the side, white bang falling in front of his face, almost hiding the way his eye gently glows that gold. )
I don't know! [He tosses his hands up in the air, clearly frustrated by this sudden interrogation.]
If it's not this shit here, it's some shit someplace else! Do I accept it? No, I guess I don't? I'm not exactly trying very hard to follow the rules here, to begin with. I only make quota because I'm an outrageous slut already. I'm not really trying. It's just usually back home the people I proposition don't want anything to do with me.
Maybe a little. [He snaps back, daring Nate to judge him for it. And because he's getting a little upset.] No one here calls me an ugly freak either. So that's nice.
Do you want tacos or not? [He's heading down the hall toward the Mexican place regardless, even if he's eating alone.]

Old enough to be here.
( said dryly, following along. )
Eighteen. ( he clarifies then. ) How old are you?
no subject
[Nate may be weird, but Wade is certainly the weird one of the two of them.]
I'm... 41. Or at least that's how old Ryan Reynolds was in my second movie.
no subject
You sure? You don't really seem to act like it.
( just saying and all. )
no subject
[Also an idiot.]
no subject
( because nate finds it frustrating being here. being trapped here with so many others. )
no subject
[He's very good at taking things in stride and pretending to be wholly unbothered.]
The whole being a glorified slave thing though? Not loving that. At least Scott's been good. Let's me do pretty much whatever I want.
[A Dom who placed a ton of rules on him would never have worked for anyone involved.]

Yeah, I guess I need to find one of those for myself.
( a dominant. )
Probably helps to already know someone for that.

I'd personally go with annoying.
