Fandom High Welcome Picnic, Front Lawn of the School, All Day: Part II

Oh look, there were tables and chairs over here too, away from all the informational stuff. Enjoy the food!

"Planet rebuilds itself, or somethin'," he responded, scowling at the cookies for a moment before giving a shrug of his shoulders and looking up again. "I try not to follow that kinda logic. Too busy keepin' 'em from killin' every livin' thing on Gaia to bother with it, yo."

"It's all very well and good for the planet to rebuild itself, but none of us would be there to see it," Alice scoffed.

The point of environmentalism peered down at Alice as it sailed cleanly over her head. Perhaps it waved?

"You destroy them?" she asked, nodding a little. "The ones who would destroy everything."

Reno's cookies were totally forgotten, now. Set on the table so that he could ball his hands into fists. And his fists would go into his pockets, like so, in order to prevent him from breaking them against convenient nearby trees.

He was going to have to find a flower bed somewhere just to step on it. That would help his mood. Motherfuckers.

"Whenever I saw a chance to rid the planet of a few enviro-terrorist fuckwipes, I took it, zoto."

Splat.

Alice didn't follow many of those words - 'enviro-terrorist' was not in her vocabulary, nor was 'fuckwipe.' But the gist was clear.

"Well done," she said, clasping her hands behind her back. "Have they stopped?"

"For now."

That, really, was good enough for Reno.

"S'just a matter of puttin' it all back together, now."

Some things weren't going to ever be fixed.

"Then I'd say you succeeded," Alice said crisply. "Hard to put anything back together when the world's been demolished."

"Tough to fix anything when everyone's dead," Reno agreed, even if there was a hint of doubt in those words, somewhere.

For a moment, though, it might be nice to entertain the thought that he was a hero.

Moment passed quickly. Right, then.

He was going to reach for his cookies. "You like cookies?"

It was simply the logical next step to this conversation.

Alice herself had no such doubts. Convenient, that. Morality could take a backseat to necessity. She had needed to leave the asylum. Violence had allowed that to happen. Therefore, violence was all well and good.

"I love cookies," she said. "Are you sure no one will mind? I've had rather a lot."

"There's plenty more left on the table," Reno said, back to pleasant conversation. About cookies. Weren't cookies awesome? "I think if people like us don't eat 'em, they're gonna be stuck with leftovers for weeks, yo."
