``ㅤGrown-ups love figures... When you tell them you've made a new friend they never ask you any questions about essential matters. They never say to you "What does his voice sound like? Does he collect butterflies?" Instead they demand.ㅤ``
@ObsiddiExtras " Wings above, man... "
[ As much as they were upset...this was just proper sad. ]
" Do you...want somethin' for y'er headache? Like water, or...? "
@th3artofwar_ " Woah-! "
[ They were a bit shocked he actually went through with the request, but... ]
[ In a bridal carry!? ]
" I...s'pose it really was that easy, huh? Though...I wasn't expectin' it t' be like this! "
[ Helios looked away and covered their face, bright red. ]
@ObsiddiExtras " So, Red, how was your fun little venture as th' biggest dick this world has ever seen? "
[ They...definitely weren't happy with him. Not in the slightest. ]
" Because let me tell you, I wish I could kick your fuckin' ass for it. "
" Ripped out my tongue, tried to kill me... "
@ObsiddiExtras [ Helios tensed, but didn't flinch, reality fissuring around them just as fast, but... ]
[ It seems this world was working in their favor, this time. ]
" Tch, real piece o' work that fucker is... "
[ They relaxed, and turned their attention to the Red on the floor, sighing. ]

@th3artofwar_ " Much taller- "
[ The words hit them like a blow to the stomach. ]
" Ignorin' the...frankly terrifyin' implications of that sentence... "
" You probably could pick me up like it's nothin', huh? "
" Can you try it real quick, actually? "
@ObsiddiExtras Seems like y'have somethin' in common with him, then. After all, no one gave 'five flying fucks' about what you did, either. Said it y'erself.
Birds of a feather really do flock towards th' Thumb. Cute.
@ObsiddiExtras ...
Must be feelin' real big, insultin' a dead Capo Terzo from y'er place of disgrace. Especially one who was ordered out of it t' keep operations runnin'.
Better t' be th' last in a bloodline of pussies, than forsaken by one who isn't...but you don't know much about that, huh?
@ObsiddiExtras Fuck me...gotta give it t' K Corp., I guess. They really know how to squeeze th' money out of anythin'.
I don't think my old man ever physically participated, but...he kept updated. Hard not to, livin' in th' K Corp. Backstreets plus his line o' work.
@ObsiddiExtras Oh, fuck off, will ya'?
You don't know what connections I got, nor my income. Ain't super hard for me t' get 'em cheap, or even free.
...
Though, were they THAT expensive durin' the Smoke War? I mean, they ain't cheap now, but-
