"Nope! Noooope! Not going to make me spill em, nope. These beans are sealed." He put a finger to his lips and smiled. He'd definitely never do such a thing here of all places.
He shifted his hands behind his head and put his feet on the table, relaxed as ever. He just looked up at the sky, as if he wasn't even talking to Joseph.
"That was the name given for the product. But the substance was more than just some drug. It was part of a project, a key to reach the domain of God. And this city's people were the lab rats. Hrm, how odd, you'd figure they'd have made sure such a thing would never be forgotten." For a moment, he stopped smiling. "I guess that's the dragon's curse for you."
That was the reason... that was why he couldn't stand this world. For a moment, he showed something that he had genuinely never shown in a long time. Rage.
"What if I told you that it was my old stickler of a pops who came up with it? The power of God... yeah, something about attaining true immortality. And I don't mean something lame like those suckers in the vampire district, or what my bosslady tried doing... or even us two. That thing was special. If it have gotten perfected, we could have created people free of death, suffering... the perfect life form. Someone who stands above things like mortality or frailty, someone with absolute power... absolute peace."

Joseph
A frown appeared on Joseph's face. "What's so wrong with that? I don't care a lot about power or peace, but everyone wants to live without pain, don't they?" That just made sense. There were some crazy people who thought that you needed pain to live, but they was obviously something deeply wrong with them.

Zekey
"Eh? No no, I didn't say it was something bad." He was taken aback by the sudden disapproval, or at least seemed aback. He held up his hands defensively and shook them, smiling reassuringly. "Don't get me wrong, seeking pleasure and avoiding pain are all fine and dandy... But isn't that the way an animal thinks, though? Don't get me wrong, I see the logic, but it's kind of... animal logic."
He shifted his body into a more formal sitting position, though it was still slouchy and sloppy as ever. But despite that, his eyes were staring right at Joseph with the most devilish of stares. And his grin... it was like a ravenous beast's.
"Still, you look like you've made your bed. Now you've gotta lie in it. If you're gonna be an animal, BE AN ANIMAL." He said encouragingly before putting a hand on his shoulder. And suddenly, he uttered something utterly unbelievable.
"I promise, I'll save you."
Cause that's what friends did, right? He couldn't let someone just suffer like that.
Umbra of Chaos:
Joseph
"You'll save me?" That really was unbelievable! After all, there was only one person that could save him after all. Oh well. Joseph patted the hand on his shoulder a few times. "It's alright if you can't I appreciate the thought."
Kotomine_Rin:
Zeke
"Thanks." He smiled sincerely. He just stood there a while, until suddenly his eyes went wide and he remembered something. "Oh, I do need help for something though. Since I'm the one paying for the meal, you're cool with it, right? It's not too big of a favour, I think..."
He looked like he was pondering for a second, stealing a slice off Joseph's pizza (how rude!). "Oh, right. It's about my body... I think you can tell, it's not my natural vessel. That's cause I borrowed it from a certain very dead son of a bitch. Remember that 'old stickler' I mentioned? Yeah, I guess you could say I'm his inheritor, as I inherited his body I also inherited his will.
The real me isn't even in here. Or, well, I guess you could say he's all of here. I'm just a corporeal shell."
He paused for a moment, letting Joseph swallow the details as he swallowed the pizza.
