You retort that you wont, because you were not the one who started the conversation. Besides which, you add, you already introduced yourself to everyone in the cab.
Only now do you notice the drunken guy shouting some distance away, and you sigh as you excuse yourself from Yorick and walk over towards him.

Massai Mara, Kenya - 3:52 AM
Moving and grazing across the grassy plains, the bug stopped once it came across a small patch of blue flowers. Moving towards them, it looked the flower for a moment, before using its two pincers to pull the flower head from the stem, then dug out them and out and ate them. The flower heads, however, it wrapped in a small and rather clumsily made pouch of webbing, which it stuck to its underside. After this, the bug continued on its merry way, grazing and eating a single scorpion it came across as it went.
After a while, the bug picked up on a new scent. Following it while masking its scent, the bug eventually found a small herde of impala slowly moving about while grazing and tending to the two young in the herde. Staying close to the ground, the bug observed the herde for a time. From its experience hunting oribi, it knew it wouldn't be able to take down a whole lot, only two if it was lucky. It waited for a moment longer, until it saw one of the calves lay down, therein seeing a chance to strike.
Leaping forward, the bug shot a glob of glue at the nearest impala calf from its nasus, the horn-like protrusion on its forehead. While the glop wasn't large enough to completely imobilise the calf, it did slow it down considderable. In the panic this caused in the herde, the bug changed direction and went after an adult imala. Rather then follow its movements, the bug predicted where it would go, and ran up along side it, jabbing it with its stinger and injecting a dose of venom. The impala moving faster then it did didn't take long to out-run the bug however, and while the bug tried to glue down the adult impala too, it didn't do much to flow it down.
Through predicting where the impala would move, the bug managed to sting it two more times, before deciding to abort the chase before it moved too far away form the glued down calf. Turning around and moving back to the calf, the bug began eating it after killing it with a large dossage of different types of venom.
"You... but, I... Ya you guys are right, my mistake. So what do you think..?" Sophia started to say before realizing Shara was already heading towards Demoman. "Or just go and talk to him, that works too."
"Eh? You ain't gon' be takin' mah scrumpy!" The demo man said, pointing his grenade launcher at Shara and EMily. "I'm a damn good mercenary, I do the job I'm hired fer. I'm gettin' payed a whole nickel ta do this job!"
Samus looked at the random, drunken man, slightly alarmed by the fact he was in possession of high explosives.
"Any one know what a nickel is?" Sophia looked at the group members that still hadn't gone over to Demoman. "Kind of sounds important, doesn't it?"
"Or not..." Sophia corrected herself when she heard EMily.
"Or not..." Sophia corrected herself when she heard EMily.
"Ah, the money ain' the issue. Me mum insists I go an' get more jobs, an' I'm already a millionaire." The demoman said. He took another drink, but never lowered his weapon. "I'm a good demoman. I don't turn down me jobs, and I dun' ask questions if it's a 'good' job."
"Mr. Degroot, this isn't a fight you want to go through with. There's no respawning around here. Tell you what, we'll let you come to the police station, and if you decide you still want to blow it up, we'll settle things there. Sound good?" Yorick said to the demoman. Somehow knowing his name.
Vicky looked over at Yorick with an eyebrow raised.
Code:
"Okay, first of all, how do you know this guy's name? Second, what are you talking about? And third, that is just about the worst way we could possibly deal with this situation. 'Hey, let's just lead the crazy man to all the innocent people he wants to murder!'."The demoman shrugged. "Ah dannae. Ya got any more booze? I'm almos' out." The demo said, lowering his weapon. "Honestly, I don't even remember what mah job is. Did I say anythin' aboot it?"
"Why are we goin' ta tha police station now?"
"Why are we goin' ta tha police station now?"
Yorick threw Demo a bottle of the exact same booze he had been drinking, which he pulled out of his coat. He then pulled Vicky close to himself. "[sub]That's a video game character. One that I know about. So just trust me. I know what I'm saying. And don't ask any questions.[/sub]" he said in a quite tone.
Sophia however could not resist such an urge to slap her hand to her forehead. "Oh wow, this is really happening..." She said in awe at the site of all the shenanigans. 'At least this seems to be one of my good days, no one has mentioned anything yet.' She sighed happily at the silver lining.
