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?

[preternaturalist]

I figured? But I figured why take my chances, too.

[scions]

it's fine, really. you don't need to try and hold back around me, I promise not to smack you upside the head unless it's something profoundly stupid

[preternaturalist]

So if I'm within arm's reach and I suddenly see stars and feel concussed, it's time for some self-reflection?

[scions]

bingo. see, you're catching on already!

[preternaturalist]

I do try to be a quick study.

[scions]

glad to hear it. :)
