#riptide interactives

Sleep wasn’t something that came easy to Riptide… just like pretty much everything else in the world. So when he decided that instead of sleeping like the last two nights in a row…

He would spend the night working out! I mean, he did have a pretty bad training day today…. and no. That has NOTHING to do with the fact that he hasn’t slept. Okay?? absolutely no correlation.

So he blasted music in his headphones and took to the gym! It wasn’t very crowded at night, at least not tonight at 4:23 in the morning.

Riptide didn’t like people, he had made that clear many times… with people there was a lot that could go wrong. They were unpredictable. Wild.

Animals however? Riptide liked animals much more. They were much easier to read, plus they didn’t talk.

While in his bunk, changing clothes, Riptide heard a mew come from his windowsill.

He immediately looked over, his eyes widening and his tone changing immediately from his awkward and blunt voice to something much softer ‘ Hey kitty-! Comehere- Pstpstpstpst ‘

Riptide hadn’t ever been to a bar before until today. Believe it or not he was not the drinking type.

Buuut after a very successful mission everyone was going to a bar to celebrate!

While Riptide would normally excuse himself from social gatherings he was sort of just… dragged along.

And now he had a bottle of… something? He wasn’t sure what it was… but it tasted like shit. In his hand as he sat far away from anyone else.

Not going outside much was something Specialist Riptide was… welll…. a specialist at… ha… no pun intended… But seriously minus outdoor training and missions the guy would rather be caught dead than seen outdoors!

Which is why everything was so… new to him. Riptide was bored, some might say lonely even, he would say bored.

The gym was packed and there was no extra training going on (shockingly) so he decided to go on a run…. outside. Yuck.

Riptide didn’t go outside much as a child, so while he was jogging around base, he noticed something, a fluffy white little flower looking thing was the best he could describe it as… He had never seen anything like it before!
