John had decimated the population of the world five times before he headed to the bar, phone to his ear as he explained how effective the Rodney pandemic virus had been. "No, it's not multiplayer." He waved at Tino for a beer as he sat down, making faces at no one present.

"No, it's not better than our game." He rolled his eyes. As if disease was as cool as running dueling civilizations. "Yes, I'm sure they're doing fine without us."

He paused, eyebrow lifting. "No."

"No."

"Did you hear me say no twice?" John snorted, somehow smiling despite the exchange. "I'm hanging up now." At least Tino was quick with that beer.

"Shall I assume that those you tend to stick with are all drinkers?"

"Well, not entirely," Max admitted. "I know a few interesting people who abstain. Or at least drink rarely. They're not all bad." And some of them were hot females.

Heh.

"Have you been here long, then?" Genesis asked. "To know so many people?"

"Just over a year now." Max smiled. "I guess I'm just naturally sociable or something."

Genesis waved one hand. "A year is time enough for anyone to find a social circle."

Max laughed. "Hey, I know some pretty anti-social sorts."

"Don't we all?" Genesis snorted. "They, too, have friends."

"True enough," Max admitted with a shrug and another long swallow of alcohol. "Not as many, though. Which leaves more for me, I guess."

That's not how friendship works, Max.
