So it's just... over? What happened?


[private to Peter]

Are you okay?


[private to Adam]

Feel like talking a warden into letting you come visit me?


[private to Swing; visible to Howie]

Sorry about all that, you know, cutting you stuff.


[ooc: Since I failed miserably at being online yesterday, I'm going to say Elle slept through the whole thing with a blanket over her head.]

You told a twelve-year-old to "look out" for me?

private

[kingfor-aday.livejournal.com]

Firstly, he's not twelve. Secondly, I only meant in a passive sense. Just in case he was needed. Thirdly, he offered.

private

[cautionarystory.livejournal.com]

He's twelve. And I don't need anybody to look out for me.

...he's not. And you might not, but I do. You're my responsibility and I can't actually do anything right now. I only told him that in case anything happened, not to annoy you.

If you're not going to do anything or get into in any trouble, you won't even have to run into him. It's just in case, okay?

He's gonna stalk me or something. I'm hanging out with Peter, I don't want him bugging us.

private

[kingfor-aday.livejournal.com]

He's not going to stalk you or bug you, I promise. I'll make that clear to him, if you want. It really is just in case - I doubt it'll even be necessary.

I can take care of myself. And if you're worried about me going all Psycho on somebody, I'm not. And even if I was planning on horribly murdering somebody in front of my boyfriend, Peter's like, super strong and can fly and generate electricity and stuff.

And we'll be in the infirmary anyway, so lots of people'll be around.

I did not know that before, for one. Now, I'm much more happy about it. I was merely taking a precaution because anything could be going off out there without me really knowing about it. I didn't mean to imply you couldn't take care of yourself.

Don't sic little boys on me.

private

[kingfor-aday.livejournal.com]

I really didn't sic anyone on you, Elle. I really didn't. I'm sorry if you got that impression, but I didn't.

private

[cautionarystory.livejournal.com]

Well whatever you thought you were doing? Don't do it.

private

[kingfor-aday.livejournal.com]

Maybe I wouldn't have thought I had reason to if you hadn't done something so reckless before hand.

If you want me to think you can take care of yourself, fine. Fine. But you have to do it in a way which doesn't involve electrocuting someone or cutting them open.

I've already got you breathing down my neck, I don't need your prepubescent lackeys doing it too.

I can take care of myself.

Re: private

[kingfor-aday.livejournal.com]

I repeat that I wouldn't have to 'breathe down your neck' if you didn't make mistakes like that.

Right. Okay, I'll tell him not to. You're on your own. Which is not a free licence to do anything you like, because now it won't be him coming after you if you do something wrong, nor me, it'll be security. And trust me, if you do, I'll make sure you don't get any power back for a very long time.

So, go on, I'm trusting you to behave and take care of yourself. Without the use of violence.

Fine. Catch you later, sarge.
