"Eh, Blood is okay. He is certainly passionate about his work. That's how we met initially. You know he deals in military weaponry right? Well I may have helped him with some R&D in the past."
Emerald blushes slightly, and asks if she did anything with him… Or with Hope when she was younger.
"Yes and no, respectively." Joyride says, causing Emerald to breath a sigh of relief, "Only started on Hope recently."
Emerald asks where the name Hopey Dope came from.
"Because it rhymes and she is a bit of a dope. You must have noticed. Oh come now, don't look so insulted. It's one of her cuter traits I think." Joyride says, seeing the look on Emerald's face.
