Vice yawned loudly as he stretched out his tired limbs and rolled off his cot. Cigarette butts were still smouldering in his ash tray, so he knew he hadn't been out long. "Dammit, can never get any sleep around here." He grumbled to himself. He lumbered across the room to his private bathroom and washed the sleep out of his eyes. Lately he'd spent too much time worrying about the Blockers and not enough time sleeping and occasionally even forgetting to eat. It wasn't healthy, he knew, but he just couldn't help it. Fightin Blockers was the only thing Vice cared about, and some people seemed to think he took it a bit too seriously.
Lighting another cigarette, he peered out his door and checked to make sure the halls were clear before heading out. He needed a walk to clear his head a bit.
Even though he'd been with DetaB for ten years there were still very few people who actually knew where his room was. He liked to keep it that way. Otherwise people would come to bother him while he was trying to avoid human contact.
"I need to get a hobby," Vice grumbled around his cigarette.

late at night...not the usual place for Reed as he sat in the cafeteria.
“ah such a peaceful night….how boring.” Reed thought to himself.
Reed got up and walked over to the vending machine “cow milk” he said to the machine. “Cow Milk?” the machine asked in return. “yes” Reed responded. “processing” the machine responded and made a humming sound. In a flash a carton of milk marked with a smiling cow appeared in the once empty space. Reed opened the small door and retrieved the milk. “thank you!” the machine responded as he waked away “ya ya.” he said walking to the transporter “Dorms” he told the computer and he was flashed their. “ah I love these new transporters.”

Vice yawned again and puffed steadily at his cigarette as he staggered down the hall. He was just coming across the transport when he heard it ding, announcing an incoming passenger. He stopped just in time to avoid running into a person the seemed strangely familiar. He was certain he'd seen the young man around the base before. What was his name again? Red? Rod? Reen? Whatever. A seocnd glance at the guy snapped his memory. Reed! The crazy medic guy!
"Crap..."

“oh Vice, how have you been doing?” Reed asked examining Vice and scowling at his cigarette.

"Just...peachy," Vice replied with a sneer. Crazy medic guy made him uncomfortable. He didn't like doctors or anyone else who thought it was their business to fuss over his health. 'How to escape? How to escape?' he thought desperately. He could made a dash for his room, but then Reed could follow and figure out where his room was, and then he'd never have a moment of peace again! I was just about to head down to the caf to grab a bite..." He lied, jerking his thumbs at the transporters. "So see ya."

Vice groaned and wanted to slam his head against the wall. 'The kid won't take a hint.' "Ah...on second thought, maybe I'll just go back to my room and grab a few Z's. Haven't slept much lately," 'Damn! Now why the hell did I say that!?'

'Nooooo! Vice's mind whined. He could feel Reed's enthusiasm creeping over him and it made him shudder. How could anyone be so excited about helping people sleep. "Ahm, that's okay, Reed." Vice said, shrugging off the younger man. 'What the hell happened to my cig?' If he didn't get a another smoke soon the kid was going to drive him mad! He desperately fumbled in his pockets and pulled out the beautiful stick of chemicals and stuffed it in his mouth.

"you know you should really cut back on the smoking its not all that good for you." Reed said still fallowing him heading to his dorm at the same time. "i heard it has some good properties to it but over all its pretty bad for you." Reed reminded Vice.

"In case you've forgotten," Vice said icily, "Being a psychic means I'm not expected to live much longer anyway. I'll smoke if I want." He saw his dorm room and stalked right past it without even looking up. There was no way in hell he'd let the crazy medic guy know where he lived. "Don't you have other patients around here?"

'That's because I avoid you like the plague,' Vice seethed. "I'm out on missions a lot." re replied, "The rest of the time I'm in my room."

'Finally,' Vice sighed in relief. He stopped sucking furiously on his cigarette and started back down the hall to his dorm room. 'I'm going to get some real sleep tonight and forget all about crazy medic guy.' He entered his room, collapsed face-first on his cot and was asleep almost instantly.

'Why is it every time I leave my room I'm attacked by madmen?' Vice thought with a groan. He'd actually been in a good mood that morning after getting a full night's sleep, before he ran into the walking Christmas tree, that is. "Yeah, what is it?" He sighed, pulling out a smoke.
