Florida man is always watching :)

When Rico went to his appointment with the Counselor he was glad to have an excuse not to talk to Hawaii, but obviously as soon as he arrived there and got questioned he became so stressed he went catatonic for most of the session. Then he went to mess hall only because he had to, left without eating.

Since there wasn't really much to do that could take his mind off what happened, he decided to reserve the training room for himself, refusing to let anyone in. After that he was simply going to sleep - he won't have another damn shower, it's too soon for that - but something ruined his plans.

All he wanted was to avoid an incoming party that Hawaii surely would attend, now he gasps as the elevator gets blocked: he could swear it was empty when he walked in! And yet look, he's not alone. Of all people, local fucking creep Agent Florida is here and blocked the elevator on purpose. Rico is instantly terrified:

"What the hell are you doing?!"

Good! Finally something to talk about.

"Why, are you feeling sick? Or did you get hurt during practice?"

[notarealstate]

"I'm not sure. Probably a mix of both."

Rico hugs his knees. He really hopes someone can get him out of here.

[cappydaddy]

"Was Hawaii too rough with you? I'm surprised you can still sit, of that's the case!" It's not like he'd know from experience, but we'll, he's seen Hawaii top his partners a couple of times.

"Hope that didn't scare you off, it would be a pity to back down now"

[notarealstate]

"W-what?!"

What the hell is wrong with this guy for him to feel so comfortable talking about other's private life?

"I meant that I'm tired from training. I already told you, Hawaii and I didn't do anything."

[cappydaddy]

"Aw, I was just kidding!" He nudges his shoulder with one hand.

"You know, this could be a nice bonding experience between the two of us"

[notarealstate]

"Ah yeah?"

Too bad Rico is moody and easily offended.

"Why?"

[cappydaddy]

"I think it's the first time we actually have some time to talk. Isn't it nice?" He claps his hands together, then let them fall in his lap.

"First of all, I was always curious about what you do in your free time. I barely ever see you around!"

[notarealstate]

"Oh, not much, I just like to chill on my own. I'm a boring guy, and I like it that way."

He's boring, he promises, now leave him alone.

[cappydaddy]

"Hawaii told you me you read cards? Is that a real thing?" He asks.

"I've always been curious about that. Do you think you can read the future?"

[notarealstate]

"Yeah, it's a real thing. But don't trust too much anyone who claims they can read the future with them. It's more like uhhh..."

Huh, Rico is actually loosening up by discussing an interest.

"Like a vibe check. Tells you what is up at the moment and based on what you want you can kinda decipher whether you are on the right track or not."

[cappydaddy]

"Do you have a deck right now? Sounds like a good way to kill time"
See? It's better when Rico's friendly! He really doesn't understand how people can be so rude most of the time. He's just trying to make friends, afterall.

[notarealstate]

"It would be nice to have cards here, yeah...But I unfortunately I don't."

Yeah, this is gonna be awkward.
