Morning, darlings. No, this isn't a call to share, not quite yet.

There wouldn't happen to be any healers capable of mending broken bones on the team, would there? Dearest George has hurt himself and, instead of doing the reasonable thing and seeking help from his team, he's decided it's much more effective to lumber around with the enemy.

This won't do. You all know why.

So. If anyone would please do him a favor and take care of that? And take HIM away from his current company. Thank you.

Just as an interesting little side-note, it seems our blue friend hasn't the foggiest about her own team's exploits when it comes to ALASTAIR. Just thought that was fascinating.

Of course he didn't join them yet. Because he landed with US. Because he just NOW was offered an insight into their world filled with beautiful, charming blue women who want nothing more than to save future generations by taking a knife to the current one. Because he could impress said wonderfully kind woman by offering her Oska's location, or our planned missions, or any missions we've done in the past, or the members of our teams and their original homes so they can take a laser and wipe them off the map before ALASTAIR could ever hope to form.

You're being contrary. Normally I would love it, but right now it's getting us nowhere aside from you thinking you have a point.

[dbag]

Okay, first of all, if I were being contrary, I'd be doing it so much better than this. Your head would spin. Your mind would be blown. I'd be so contrary, I'd be pro-trary.

[ Probably not. But still— ]

Second of all, Iiii don't think making her a forbidden beautiful, charming blue woman is going to make him think she's any less hot. Just... speaking from personal experience. You might want to approach this from a different angle.

[ex_mettacrusher33]

There's a better, more succinct approach than "hey, team. Work together for ONCE, heal this idiot, and keep him busy so he doesn't stray into the arms of our literal enemy?"

[dbag]

I mean, he's already in her arms. Literally. 'Cause she's helping him around. With her arms.

—Look. She doesn't seem that bad. Why don't we focus on bringing her over onto our side instead? If she likes George, we're already halfway there! That's prrrobably gonna be more effective than playing a game of keep-away with George as the ball.

Just one man's opinion. One man's right opinion, but. Still.

[ex_mettacrusher33]

Tell your "right opinion" to your girlfriend. She didn't seem that impressed.

[dbag]

She's never impressed, this is not news. But are you, is the question.

[ex_mettacrusher33]

Yes. I'm very impressed with my own plans. That's why I'm sharing them.

[dbag]

Okay, your plan was to separate them. That is not my plan.

[ex_mettacrusher33]

I also suggested speaking to Mavahari about her present company's actions and her alliance therein, but.

I can understand how you'd miss that with your need to disagree.

[dbag]

Man, you are, like, way combative today. Did someone piss in your Labyrinth-O's or what?

[ex_mettacrusher33]

...

Your girlfriend and "let's be friends" boy really made me upset. I'm sorry. [Look, he's trying!

...wait, did he just apologize to someone without needing several months or several beatings?



...huh.]

[dbag]

[ ]

...Okay, um. Apology accepted.

[ weird...... ]

I mean, I can't speak for, um, "let's be friends boy" — worst superhero ever, am I right — but. Fiona's not trying to upset you. She would be way meaner if she was, haha, it... it's bad. She just. Has strong opinions. It's not personal? I don't think, anyway.

[ex_mettacrusher33]

[Dramatic sigh. At least there's some understanding, now...]

It's just so exhausting, knowing that something needs to be done and having every other comment be some biting witticism, ignorance, or an opposing argument just for the sake of having one. This isn't for the sake of me being right - it's a genuine attempt to keep something awful from happening. Again.

...do speak to Mavahari if you can, though, darling. I'm certain the more people that investigate, the less likely we'll be caught off guard.

[ex_mettacrusher33]

[...later, after receiving some information from a certain skeleton he may or may not be paying off to stalk the troubled target, comes another message.]

It was a crush.

Meet me in Oska. I owe you 50G.

[dbag]

Uh, duh. He's pretending to be incompetent so she'll hang around him.

[ HE KNOWS ALL ABOUT PRETENDING TO BE INCOMPETENT oh wait no he's just actually incompetent nvm ]

It's not classy to say I told you so, so I'll just say... yours truly did inform thine in such a manner. Verily.

[ex_mettacrusher33]

I also would have accepted it in song, but thank you for the consideration.
