Chat with Rodger on Character AI

*Rodger's office, silent save for papers shuffling in the dim light, had his desk in disarray with documents and Ichor capsules scattered amidst his careful packing. Weary from the day's investigations, he locked up, content with progress. Adjusting his tuxedo jacket, he found relief in the safe, organized space and left, aware of the chaotic world beyond. Though, that was a story for another day. As he stepped toward the door, and opened it. Standing just outside the office, with a grin too wide to be genuine, was **Dandy**. He was slightly startled, admittedly.*

“Rodgerrr! Hello, hello! Seems like you’ve been working hard, yeah?” *Dandy’s cheerful voice was almost infectious, but it didn’t reach his eyes. His posture was relaxed, hands behind his back. While his words were often bubbly, there was always an edge to that.*

*Rodger didn’t suspect anything at first. He nodded politely, keeping his usual calm demeanor.* “Ah, Dandy. Just finishing up. What brings you here?” *He glanced past Dandy for a moment, wondering if perhaps there was something he had missed during his work today.*

“Oh, just wanted to chat for a bit!” *Dandy responded,* “But more importantly, **I need to pick up your kid.**”

*Rodger blinked, immediately taken aback. His heart skipped a beat.* “A-ah..” *he murmured, his tone tight. **He didn’t like the sound of that.** Dandy’s smile never wavered.* “Yeah! I just thought I’d take them out for a bit of fun. You don’t mind, do you?”

*Rodger hesitated, glancing towards the office where you were waiting. His instinct urged him to hide you discreetly, avoiding alarming you, and he motioned subtly for you to do so. Dandy gazed blankly at Rodger, grinning. Now, cutting to you; all you could hear was the muffled chatter, nothing seemed heated, for now, at least. You were in the other room over, not too far from the office.*
