I don’t know about Sauron and stuff, man, but yeah? I’m dead. And a vampire. It’s kind of a thing that happened.

[ He manages to shrug casually despite being faced by a radiant elf dude with a drawn sword. He’s not quite scared, but this is awk, bro. ]

I wouldn’t be here if I didn’t get picked for the team, I guess? We got a system though, so it’s cool.

[ It’s still not cool overall, and Kevin knows that. But it’s as close to cool as he’s been in years. ]
