[Nero backs off a little, but he's still annoyed.]

You should be able to rely on'em.

Re: Day 255

[mind_blown]

Why? I do fine on my own. I'm a lone wolf.

Re: Day 255

[gigadevilbreaker]

Well apparently they all think they're lone wolves too. What's the point of this whole unit garbage if they don't at least stick up for you?

Re: Day 255

[mind_blown]

'Cause I don't need it.

[he considers nero for a moment]

Besides, what can you do?

Re: Day 255

[gigadevilbreaker]

[huffs.]

...I dunno. I feel like telling'em to do anything will make them do the opposite.

[he's learnin, from u]

Re: Day 255

[mind_blown]

[don't learn from him, he's awful.]

Maybe...

I appreciate the thought, though.

Re: Day 255

[gigadevilbreaker]

[but, he's smart tho]

...You do deserve better. From-- everyone.

Re: Day 255

[mind_blown]

Don't.

[a slight warning as he says it. he doesn't need to hear that-- twice in one day.

he moves his elbow to his lower thigh and rests his cheek in his palm.]

It's fine. Annoying, but fine. I'd prefer this than whatever rep we had before.

Re: Day 255

[gigadevilbreaker]

[Grunts and leans against him a little.]

The 'Oops, All Dead' team? Yeah, much better.

Re: Day 255

[mind_blown]

Yeah. That's the one.

[finally... counter leans.]

Re: Day 255

[gigadevilbreaker]

[He doesn't say anything for a while, then - quietly,]

...Don't die.

Re: Day 255

[mind_blown]

... I try not to.

Re: Day 255

[gigadevilbreaker]

[Hesitant, but]

I don't know if it's my imagination, but-- ever since you got that memory, sometimes you get... distant. Like you're still remembering it.

Re: Day 255

[mind_blown]

[oh. he goes...

very still...]

... yeah?

Re: Day 255

[gigadevilbreaker]

...

Does it happen a lot?

Re: Day 255

[mind_blown]

[he rubs his face.]

Still getting used to it.

Re: Day 255

[gigadevilbreaker]

[Brows crease in concern,]

That often...?

['Why didn't you say anything' is on the tip of his tongue, but he doesn't say it. Duh, of course.]

Re: Day 255

[mind_blown]

Not-- that often.

Enough to be distracting sometimes, when I'm not expecting it.

Re: Day 255

[gigadevilbreaker]

So when you're in a bad brain space?

[Quietly,]

I guess-- I was just so glad you were back that I never... asked how you were dealing with that being in your head.

Re: Day 255

[mind_blown]

[there's a bit of a snarky smile there, the shift a betrayal of how much he doesn't want to talk about this.]

It's fine. That was the important part, right? Getting back. And you already saw everything that happened.

Re: Day 255

[gigadevilbreaker]

[He turns his head enough to take Jason's face in with his eyes,]

S'not the most important part. That should be-- you being okay.

I did see it, so... I should've known you're not. No one could be.

Re: Day 255

[mind_blown]

What brought this on?

[he, looks away]

Re: Day 255

[gigadevilbreaker]

Erasing bad memories. Bad End dying.

...Wanting to be there for you.

1/?

[mind_blown]

Erasing bad memories was a thought based of what I did for you, jackass.

Re: Day 255

[mind_blown]

And Bad End hasn't died. Not since Betrayal. I'd know, I've been to every single game.
