I rub my forehead, holding back my laugh at Jean's sudden contribution. Straight to the point.
"He's not wrong, Roger. You clearly suck at your job, according to the guy who just beat you up, and you hate it anyways, so let's quit! We can help you with money for a while and get you started with something else," I urge, looking at Roger with a knowing and stubborn expression. "You know deep down we're right."
Roger sighs heavily as he looks at everyone at the table, his eyes searching everyone for confirmation.
"Oh…kay, but…if I quit there's no telling what they'll do to me." Roger shuffled, uncomfortable by the lack of objections.
"I doubt they'll even let me go home." He mutters, looking down and fiddling his thumbs on his lap.
I suddenly stand up at the table and point to Roger. "Too fucking bad! They can't keep you there, and if they try, we'll stop them and get you the fuck outta there. Right guys?" I exclaim to everyone, passion in my eyes. I don't know why I'm so determined to help the cyborg, but the thought of his bloody face and beat up body hurt.
Tyler rolls his eyes, but Kaiholo shrugs nonchalantly.
"I'll help him," Kaiholo starts, causing Jean to look up with a bit of curiosity. He obviously didn't want to help, but he didn't want to be the asshole of the table.
"Okay, I'll…I'll help out." He stutters out forcefully. Everyone turns to look over at Tyler.
Anubis glares at Jean with a look that probably means dude, we ain't even getting paid but ok. LMAO
Anyways
I furrow my brow at Tyler. "If you helping means another deal, then hell no. I already gave up my memories and I don't want anyone else dealing with you."
Tyler shrugs his shoulders with his arms crossed, unashamed.
"Fine with me." He utters coldly, turning to Kaiholo.
"I've got some work anyway, so I'll be leaving. Kai, can I leave you with these guys?"
Kaiholo nods, waving Tyler off.
"I can handle myself, Ty." He snaps quietly, causing Tyler to roll his eyes in disbelief.
"Well, good luck you guys." Tyler waves you all goodbye as he leaves the house. There's a moment of silence before Roger sighs heavily, looking down.
"I'm gonna need to buy more food."
I chuckle, sitting back down and looking at the four lovely lovely lovely boys.
"Alright!" I throw my hands up. "What's our first line of action? Jump straight into it and quit? Is that a good idea? I don't know, you're all, like, twelve times smarter than me. anubi ur IQ is one thirty something, u figure this out."
Jean exchanges glances with Anubis before standing up.
"I've got some weapons in the trunk of my car, we can go in there guns blazing, but some of us are going to be wearing masks. I don't want the government to have another reason to be on my ass."
Jean turns to Kaiholo.
"Do you have a plan?"
Kaiholo turns his head up at Jean and tilts it, slightly awkwardly as he shrugs his shoulders.
"Other than what has been decided for me? Yes."
Jean, slightly taken back, looks at you as if to say, 'Is he always like this?'
I shrug. Yo, I don't even know what he just said ok…,,,,
Jean says his plan, which is quite straightforward, but reasonable to an extent. He proceeds to ask Kai for a plan, who answers, "Other than what has been decided for me? Yes."
I raise an eyebrow at Kai. "What's your plan?"
Kai realized he wasn't listening and didn't know Jean meant plan for Roger
Kaiholo hesitates, attempting to quickly come up with something worthwhile to say as he forces his hands up to use gestures.
"Well-obviously…we could…walk in, and…tell them, that-of course we would say this with our utmost determination and confidence-we would tell them…"
Jean sighs and turns away from Kaiholo.
"Okay, so you don't have a plan, Roger; anything in mind?"
Roger jumps as if he had been spacing out and blinks his eyes at Jean.
"They're still converting humans to androids, we could break into the ''factory'' and gather as many people as we can save to join us on our revolution."
Kaiholo scoffs.
"I wouldn't call this a revolution. Merely sibling rivalry."
I eye Roger carefully. "Have you been playing Detroit: Become Human? Also, aren't we just getting you out? I did not sign up to save everybody.
hold up while i debate if this is gonna be a real psot
roger sobs
I run my fingertips over the table, mulling over Roger's idea. Something about it seems oddly familiar, but I can't seem to place my finger on it. "You remind me of something," I mutter. I shake off the distant memory and focus on the task at hand. "You think we could save everybody? There's only five of us plus the capable humans. I doubt we'd survive that. Plus, we don't have enough weapons to arm ourselves."
As much as I love the idea of saving everybody. it didn't seem entire possible. I only have Roger's life in mind. I suppose it makes sense he'd take his chance to rescue the others too.
Jean chuckles
Jean scoffs at your doubt-filled response as he turns to Anubis.
"I can have you guys' backs with a sniper and Anubis here can work with anything technological. He'll probably hack into the finished cyborgs and make them part of your team, too."
Anubis furrows his brow and raises a defensive hand.
"I've…never done that befo-" He begins, only to be interrupted by Kaiholo clapping his hands in a concluding manner.
"Perfect, so we'll charge in, Jean will cover us, Anubis will hack an entire army of robots, and Roger will violently announce his unemployment, is everyone okay with that?" He finishes as if he came up with the plan.
I lace my hands on top of my head. This is fucking ridiculous. I smile in both disbelief and excitement.
"Okay, yep, this is fine. I literally just planned on signing a resignation letter, but you know what this works too. Let's get started," I smirk, cracking my knuckles.
The looks on everyone's faces are those of determination and excitement, which melts my heart. My legs stand me back up and I look to Roger. "Alright, are we going to the ELife building? Do you know what floor we need to be at, or are we infiltrating every floor?"
Roger thinks to himself for a moment before holding up a finger.
"Yeah, the ELife building actually holds the factories underground. It's not accessible through the public elevators, though. We have to get through the Maintenance Room, which is locked electronically, and then use a physical key to unlock the elevators, and then another key to access the basement floors."
He pauses as everyone starts listening closely, internally taking notes.
"The keys can be found on the twenty sixth floor in Dr. Rose's office. Where exactly in his office, I don't know, but I know he has the keys to the basement floors."
"That's a lotta fucking keys," I murmur, wondering how long this roleplay is going to take. "But, that's fine. Anubis can take care of the electronic lock, and he can also find out where Dr. Rose's office is. Then, we just need to find a way to sneak in there. Who is Dr. Rose? Can we make an appointment with him or something?"
Roger jumped at your suggestion, raising his hands as if to stop you from performing an action.
"Don't do that!" The alarm in his voice caused even Jean to flinch as everyone looks at Roger. He breathes heavily for a few seconds, attempting to calm himself down as he lowers his hands.
"I don't want anyone near that man." He murmurs, lowering his head.
Kaiholo stands up and places his hands on his hips.
"Alright, well, who is Dr. Rose, then?"
Roger runs his hand through his hair as his eyes trail his train of thought.
"He directed all of this. He started the human experimentation, he performed the surgery on me. Scheduling an appointment with him is scheduling yourself to become like me."
I frown, eyes scanning over everyone's faces. "Well, do you have a better idea? We have to get into his office somehow," I say to Roger. I wait for a response.
Roger's eyes grow dark upon your words, the realization setting in.
"I…don't want to put you in danger like that, I don't even want to risk it."
His eyes flicker to the others in the room.
"Could any of you do it?"
A deafening silence followed his question as everyone hesitates, unable to respond confidently.
