Pointless Wandering

"Nevermind, you would never be interested in joining us, judging by your tone."

"It's take a lot to make me even consider it. Vonkraft and I have a a bit of a history.."

"I know, I am a witness, I just hoped your heart would have eroded and softened over time."

O.W. looked over at Alice and gave her a wink, "That's the thing about Brass, it's a bitch to rust, let alone erode."

She stops and looks at him with a silent, long lasting stare.

"You could at least humor me. You're the first person I've talked to in about six months."

"No..." She covers her mouth, suppressing a childish giggle. "It's just the first time anyone joked with me for sixty years."

"Sounds like you have lived a horribly boring sixty years."

"And you, a lonely six..." She stops laughing but can't help but have a small smile. "Thank you," She proceeds in leading him.

"Anytime," He gives her a small nod before speaking again, "Hey, do you have anything you don't need on you?"

"You would need to specify your request."

"Umm..just give me some kind of empty container you have."

She reaches into her bag and throws him a small glass jar.

O.W. catches the jar, "Alright, watch carefully now." He uses his hidden blade to mark a small cut on his index finger, waiting for the blood to begin to run before running it along the jar. Almost immediately, the jar began to transform into a intricately blown jar with a brass lid. "Notice how the artwork on the jar is of the Victorian era. It's fascinating to think that this virus actually has some kind of sentience to understand the time period it was created in."

Her eyes widen. She takes steps to get closer to it. "Beautiful... Not only the jar... But the intelligence of the SCP... Is it sterile?"

"Yup, one hundred percent sterile. Here, catch." He tossed her the now transformed jar.

She catches it hesitantly, then examines it closely. "It's gorgeous..." She looks lost in it.

"I get the feeling you aren't going to let me go now.."

"It is up to you..." She says. "Though I enjoy your company, I wouldn't hold you against your will..."

"Well, We'll stick together until Anubis industries. Depending upon how this trip goes and the meeting with Vonkraft will decide the rest. Deal?"

"... You realize he might kill you... Correct?"

"If he did that he'd lose some valuable profit. Even if I don't work for him, he knows that I'm a walking chemical weapon, killing me could doom us all."

"I would hope he think rationally. I will vouch for you..."

"I don't need you to do that. I can handle this on my own."

"I'm sure you could. However, It'd be a shame if he were to kill you with out me doing what I can to help."
