[ first off: don't ask questions about the username. Bigby assumes it's subtle enough considering no one here knows him as the Big Bad Wolf, but he doesn't really... realize... the implications of the abbreviation he chose. oh well.

there's more pressing matters to attend to. ]

Not even here a goddamn month and shit goes to hell. Because of course. So much for peace.

[ on camera is a man who doesn't seem very pleased with the current chaos of the recent bombing. a moment is given to take a drag of his cigarette between words, blowing a puff of smoke straight towards whoever is watching. ]

I need information on the fugitives. Don't care if you're best friends or you've crossed paths with them once. Backgrounds, real names, affiliations, common hangouts. Also addresses on where they live. Give me a scent to work with and they'll be found.

[ another inhale of nicotine before he smothers the embers on a nearby surface. he's still as displeased as five seconds ago. ]

Also don't really care if they're in deep with this Shady Fucker or just a matter of "wrong place, wrong time". They have questions to answer one way or another. Got a problem with that? Take a wild guess on how I feel.

Sorry, there's still a lot that I have to understand when it comes to humans and their emotions. They never gave us a manual for this.

[ y e p. ]

Oh. So how you're actually feeling is that, at least in regards to if someone kicks up a fuss.

[puffing]

Oh. Uh. Okay. [ she sounded human enough to him, but. then again, so does he, probably. ] And I'm assuming you're... not a human, then.

[ a question or point she has had to clarify once or three times, he imagines. but if she gets to ask stuff, so does he. ]

Yep. So if you're still working out how to feel, the general conclusion is that I'm a stubborn asshole who doesn't know how to really take other people's thoughts or feelings into consideration.

Or so I've been told.

[atwo]

Correct. [ She nods her head and then stops.

There's a moment of silences. ]

Oh. Sounds like me, almost. Almost -- there are some minor differences.

[puffing]

What does that make you, then?

[ he knows of plenty of things that sound human back home, but he's going to assume he isn't talking to a talking pig, monkey or toad. Bigby still has trouble considering himself as one to this day, so that's a conversation for another day. ]

If you happen to think of yourself as a stubborn asshole, then sure. I'd be a little kinder to yourself, though. It takes a lot of work to be a stand-up guy like me.

[atwo]

Android.

[ Plain and simple. There's a faint hum of thought across the audio and then A2 can only give him a shrug. ]

Perhaps. Are you saying that you're a special type of 'asshole' that is worse than normal?

[puffing]

That's a new one.

[ he knows the standard definition of androids. considering their current locale, it's more feasible than back home. that being said, she sounds rather human. with only a voice to go off of, it's hard to see it. then again, trying to convince people that he was an actual wolf without visible proof is a herculean task as well. ]

Yep. That's definitely me. If people had five words to use to describe me, ninety percent of them would use 'asshole' for four out of five of those words. The fifth is 'prick'.

[atwo]

Is it?

[ Androids feel so normal to her now, even though a couple of people don't actually know what they are and explaining that can be fun from time to time. Except, A2 has never actually enjoyed it. ]

Those are... interesting words to be used. I'm unsure of how they can be used to describe someone though.

[puffing]

New to me. Probably not to you. You're the android who has to explain to everyone how you're an android.

[ he figures it gets tiresome, so he doesn't look for the details. he'll give her something else to work with, though. ]

Describe yourself in five words, then. I'm sure you can use something interesting as well.
