Well, for your safety you should probably just cut it all off. Shave yourselves.

...I still plan on teaching Jim and Luca.

From:

al_truism

I've considered it.

[But nope.]

They'd enjoy that. But you're going to need to find another payment.

From:

thelightbringer

Or they will. Or, since you rejected the loan, you will.

From:

al_truism

I will?

[Flatly.

From:

thelightbringer

You're the one stepping in. You want to be an example? Show Jim how to pay me.

From:

al_truism

That depends on what you want.

From:

thelightbringer

[he shrugs.]

It'll have to be better than Marge.

From:

al_truism

[He closes his eyes and counts to five.]

From:

thelightbringer

[Oh, go ahead. Lucifer can wait. He has a million chanteys to hum.]

Did you hear about that party Jinx is throwing?

From:

al_truism

I did. But I don't know Kida.

From:

thelightbringer

You'd like him. He's...jolly.

From:

al_truism

I'm sure he's wonderful.

[He gets to hear all about him.]

From:

thelightbringer

How long do you think it'll be before Jinx sticks to him completely?

From:

al_truism

I don't know. I'm still getting to know her outside of what the Animus did to our heads.

From:

thelightbringer

Then give me your best guess.

From:

al_truism

I can't say. I don't know him.

Why does it matter to you?

From:

thelightbringer

What do you mean, why? If she hasn't moved on to Kida yet, where does that put her?

[Hint: He's standing right there, and he was just humming Spanish Ladies]

From:

al_truism

In between. Trying to be happy. Feeling things out.

From:

thelightbringer

Something like that. Occasionally blowing up my living room, screaming at people who get close to me...there's that, too.

From:

al_truism

I don't know what happened.

From:

thelightbringer

She didn't tell you? She came over and blew apart my living room.

From:

al_truism

I heard, but I don't know her side of it and only talked briefly with Break.

From:

thelightbringer

Then ask her, and-

Look, I still like her well enough. [Which is saying a lot, for him.] I want to be able to work with her. Talk to her. I'd like for her and Xerxes to be able to do that, too. But some idea of how that's going, from a perspective like yours? Why, I'd leave your cow alone for that.
