[This is the five of you all getting the same terse phone call:] Come to the house. We have to talk.

Ahim has been having tea with him since he got here. I had nothing to do with that. Hakase tolerates and accepts Basco because I said something to him.

I'm also not going to act hostile toward him pointlessly. I don't ask anyone else to do this. I'd rather they were cautious. Basco and I get in plenty of fights or disagreements, and maybe ... something....

But I'm not going to do anything stupid. What happened to you does matter. What he did to you is why I even bothered.

[redmarksthespot]

... I don't like it. But you already know that, so there's no use repeating it. I trust you, Joe.

[blueondeck]

. . .

[Might as well tell you]

Something did happen, but it's not something big.

[redmarksthespot]

What?

[blueondeck]

I wont say unless it happens. I don't want to get an innocent yet stupid person shot for no reason.

[redmarksthespot]

Ah?

[blueondeck]

Not saying.

[redmarksthespot]

[:\]

[blueondeck]

If something happens, I'm coming straight to you.

[redmarksthespot]

Alright.

[blueondeck]

Until then I'll handle it.

Basco's not important though.

[redmarksthespot]

Ah?

[blueondeck]

Should he be? It's not like he's doing anything or even concerned with us.

[redmarksthespot]

I'm not about to let down my guard as long as he's here. But I'm fine with avoiding him.

[blueondeck]

You shouldn't let your guard down anyway. He's still capable of everything he did.

[redmarksthespot]

I know.

[blueondeck]

Is there anything else?

[redmarksthespot]

You know what I think.

[blueondeck]

About?

[redmarksthespot]

[sssshrug]

All of this. You.

[blueondeck]

You want me to come back. I want to be back. I'm also pissed at Luka.

[redmarksthespot]

[omg you want to be back]

I know.

[blueondeck]

[That wasn't a huge secret]

If she's pissed, there's no point.

[redmarksthespot]

There is.

[blueondeck]

... I'm not doing it.
