"The hell does that mean?" It was bad enough dealing with a monster in front of him. Bakura's vague statements and suggestions weren't helping any. And really, bunny rabbit or bear, he was more than willing to put a bullet in its head if it came near him. He expected the guy knew that too, because the creature remained fairly still.

Costigan listened attentively to the latter topic, appreciate the explanation. He slowly, begrudgingly, clicked the safety on and slid the firearm back against the base of his back. This time, however, he left the grip on the outside of his clothing, making it more accessible - just in case.

"Did he get the scars before you or while you were there?" He had no idea why Bakura's body would be changed. Maybe, as a unique case, they had had to custom design his body- Costigan ended that train of thought right there. It was a series of thoughts he wasn't willing to entertain. Whatever the case, they were people and they had to do their best to care of their fragile mortality.
