Gidget glanced between the gathered people and gave a slight shake of her head. She wasn't ashamed of who she was, or the fact that she didn't have Qi. Even if it did put her at a disadvantage.
"Why? Are you?" she demanded.

WR just waved off the question.
"Why does it matter, yeah?"

Julius nodded at DJ's response, but snapped his head at Gidget, and darted his eyes between her and WR.
"I am a meta, and I ask because metas have shown to be a hell of a lot more trustworthy than those who aren't," he informed them, his voice returning to a cold tone.

Dj would look back and forth as they spoke, trying to gague the situation and soothe WR.
"Nor will they ever be if you go off trying to choke random people out. I get it, times are not the best for us, but we have the unfortunate role of having to change that."

Gidget's eyes flashed at that comment, and she openly sneered.
"I didn't realize you were the Meta version of a racist. Good on you, douchebag."

"You can fuck around and find out if you wanna but I wouldn't if I was you..."
WR slurred at Julius, sticking their tongue out while they resumed a cross over their chest with their arms.

"There's a difference between flat out racism, and cautions based on experience," he said as he pulled out his bike from a line in front of the bar. Wheeling it over in front of the group on the road, he continued. "There are exceptions. But for every good non-meta there's 10 who are scared, disgusted, or outraged by every breath we take."
Kicking down the stand, he leaned against the motorcycle and faced the group, his arms crossed. "Just look in there," he growled with a nod to the bar. "The look on their faces when they realized there were metas in their presence. Half of them would do anything to get out of our presence, the other would do anything to get rid of us entirely. Including that bartender. If he had no legal repercussions I'd bet my bike he would have filled our chests with shotgun pellets. Or hell, look at the attack that happened at those new apartments that everyone's been talking about it. There are massive groups rising up whose only goal is to wipe us out."
The Aedrian reached inside a pocket hanging off his bike, and pulled out a cigarette and lighter, finishing his speech as he did so. "So yea, if it's racist being cautious, maybe even paranoid, around nonmetas, when any one of them could be an antimeta looking to slit my throat," he paused to light the cigarette he had in his mouth. "So be it."

"If we are to reach equality, there are steps we have to follow. Exposure leads to tolerance, which leads to acceptance, that starts education, and ends with equality. The better our image is, the easier the process gets." Dj would say nonchalantly.
"Be cautious all you want, but you still should know the difference between a look and an attack. Considering the people you picked a fight with were all metas."

"Oh no. The big bad guys are out to get you."
Gidget rolled her eyes, shaking her head.
"Be paranoid all you want. I'm outta here." She flipped him the bird before turning to walk off. Otherwise, her mouth was going to get her into a world of hurt.

WR frowned at all the commotion. Racism this, equality that, whatever. WR was willing to let bygones be bygones, even though they truly didn't care about what was being talked about. Motorcycle guy was probably a dick. Dj, another dick. Gidget, the ultimate dick. They shook their head and turned away from them all huffing loudly.
"I just wanted some fuckin' nuggets but I guess that ain't happenin'. Later loooosers!" They cackled almost manically, slapping a hand on their knee before beginning to waddle down the sidewalk.
The world was not ready for the terror that was drunk WR, unless someone happened to be in a car. They were ready for drunk WR.

"That's a nice thought, you can add a pretty bow on top of it," Julius quipped as he blew smoke. "But," he began as he mounted his bike. "It's only gonna get worse from here for us, DJ. Unless we do something about it."
With that, he started the bike. "Need a ride anywhere? Guess I owe you for trying to strangle you."

Dj would smile at the offer. At least they can have respect for each other's views. He would utimately shake his head though.
"No I can walk home, thanks for the offer though."
He would say giving a small salute with 2 fingers and starting to walk home.

Julius nodded and revved his bike before driving off!
