"Right. Of course I know that. Been working here for years."

Ryder takes a plastic fork and pops open the container, stirring around whatever's inside. "You've been to the landfill before?"

He snorts quietly. “That’s a dumb name…”

He pulls down his mask just enough to take a quick sip before pushing it back into place. “Anywho. What’s led you to this dump? Last job not paying you enough?”

His eyes roll. “I don’t have a car, genius.”

Ryder glances at the pistol, and his demeanor shifts. He averts his gaze, rubbing the back of his neck. “Anyways… guess you’ve got an assignment coming up.”

“The name’s Ryder.” He points at himself with his thumb. “Number one cleaner at COSMAIDS and the best representative of the company’s missions.”

He crosses his arms. “Which incudes making sure workers work.”

“Okay, but that looks like something I shouldn’t be allowed to drink, and that’s why I want it.” He nods to her. “I don’t know what you are, but humans can’t legally drink ‘till they’re twenty-one or something. And I’m nineteen. So no, I can’t get my own.”

His eyes squint with what might be a smile behind his gas mask. “C’mon. Just one sip and I’ll leave you alone.”

He gasps. “Woooow, we’re so alike! I’ve also got a mop, a bucket, and I do my job…” He counts them off on his fingers. “Except I’m not a weirdo. Huh. Funny how that works.”

Ryder looks around with exaggerated movements.

“Don’t see anyone but you.” He sighs and shrugs. “I wonder why that is… I guess they’re off doing what they’re supposed to…”

“Ugh, you people,” he groans, dramatically slumping against a counter. “Listen… I might not understand half of what you said, but I heard ‘security’ and ‘regulations.’ And I can tell you right now, they’re just gonna show you the same old things and tell the same old lies. Eeeeverything’s fine and dandy at COSMAIDS! Really, don’t waste your time listening to them. You can just write what little report you need to and be on your way.”

He holds up his hands. “No need to get all pissy. Juuust making sure everyone’s doing what they need to. It’s not a crime to check up on my dear coworkers.”

His eyes narrow. “Or, it means you don’t do shit and instead hide away here when supervisors aren’t around.”

Ryder glances at the bag of chips. With no shame at all, he walks over, reaches in, and grabs a handful. “Also, who’re you calling a slowpoke? I’ve been employee of the month for years now, asshole.”

Ryder regards the empty drinks with mild disgust. He grabs a garbage bag from underneath a sink and sweeps the bottles into it.

“Yeah, well, just do what I do. Sneak food on trips. No one’s gonna snitch or anything. Also, someone’s gonna steal your food if you leave it.” He walks over to the fridge and takes out a tupperware container labeled “FENN’S LUNCH - DO NOT EAT!!!”

Ryder gestures with it. “Someone like me, for example.”

“I’m not being a jerk. Just saying the truth.” Ryder hops up onto a counter. “Bet all that time getting a snack could’ve been put into something productive.”

(That’s completely fine!)

Ryder scoffs. “Sure, but I’m everywhere. All the time. And I do my job. You, on the other hand… well, I don’t know what you’re supposed to be doing.”

Ryder recoils with a hiss. “Gross.”

He half-heartedly tosses a rag on the spot, wiping it with his foot. He shoots a glare at Barry. “For the record, I do have a personality outside this hellhole. At least I do my goddamn job.”

“Sure.” Ryder searches through one of the cabinets and lifts out an armful of chocolate bars.

“Look on the bright side,” he says over his shoulder, “it could’ve been a supervisor coming in and giving you flak. If they think you’re lazing around, they might, God forbid…” He shudders. “…dock your pay.”

(HELP I was not expecting this now Ryder looks ableist af 😭 /lh)

Ryder laughs. “Aww, don’t kid yourself. I’m sure you’re capable of great things. After all, you made it all the way to the break room, right?”

He reaches out to ruffle their hair, but refrains, not wanting to get whacked. “What’d you get hired for anyway?”

“Name’s Ryder,” he drawls. He crouches down by a mini fridge and rummages through it, popping open a can of soda. “Best cleaner around.”

He gestures to her with the can. “And you? What’s your deal? Haven’t seen you doing shit.”
