in my defense, his fault for challenging me to a duel

[preternaturalist]

He did what? Why?

[scions]

challenged me to a duel.
i
uh
might have wounded a dude's pride enough to want to do so

[preternaturalist]

I salute you. A lot more male prides could stand to be taken down a peg or six.

[scions]

I mean, not wrong
doesn't help that my tolerance for fuckboy bullshit goes to zero when tipsy

[preternaturalist]

Oh, a fuckboy. Totally had it coming, then.

What did you say that got him so up in arms?

[scions]

Yup.

gave him shit about harassing someone to try and pick them up. to be fair, dude had about six inches on me and had some muscle, but uh. think he learned pretty quick not to go judging on appearance.

whoops? :D

[preternaturalist]

I think you mean, awesome. :D

I hope he learned his lesson.

[scions]

i may have gone a bit too far if the paramedics are any indication. granted it shouldn't be much beyond a couple sprains, but i may have also had to abscond elsewhere so i don't get in trouble

[preternaturalist]

Did you make a clean getaway?
Are you safe?

[scions]

oh yeah, I'm fine
just probably not going back anytime soon. might have to send the dude an apology card for going a tiny bit too far. maybe.

[preternaturalist]

I vote "no" on the card.

But I don't actually have a say in this so do as you like.

[scions]

eh, it's just a thought. but fair point, he kinda deserved getting his ass beat anyway so
idk

might just be too nice at this point

not that anyone would really believe him if he talked about what happened anyway

[preternaturalist]

Yeah, let him stew in that, don't apologize. He was the one in the wrong.

[scions]

not denying that part.

anyway
everything else turn out okay outside that?

[preternaturalist]

Yeah. While you were out striking a blow against the fuckboys of the world, I went back to that house from yesterday.

No demons or ghosts.

They had rats.

[scions]

well that's anticlimactic. was kinda looking forward to attempting to punch out a demon if that were the case.

[preternaturalist]

More being fighty. I approve.

[scions]

can't help what i am.

delivering truth, justice and well-deserved smackdowns, apparently

[preternaturalist]

I knew there was a reason I liked you so much.

[scions]

not for my sparkling personality? I'm offended

[preternaturalist]

Please don't be. It's rare that someone can pull off both sparkle and the ability to lay on a dangerous smackdown, let alone do it as well as you.

[scions]

[ Well that's a delayed response because of being flustered a little. And the response is of course to keep prodding with the teasing. Go figure. ]

I'm flattered. You sure you're not just saying that so you don't end up on the wrong side of one yourself?

[preternaturalist]

No, I'm speaking the truth. Also:
staying on the right side of one comes through deeds, not texts.

[scions]

I mean that's not wrong
but you'd be surprised. also you do realize I'm mostly joking around, right?
