I will regret not shooting back when I had the chance, and when it could have been construed as self-defense. It's a wonder he didn't shoot Georgia or Mason — or Pandora, for that matter. But perhaps he isn't smart enough for emotional manipulation. Just intent on unloading a few bullets on an undead man. Try again, asshole, that hasn't worked for eighty years and it sure as shit isn't going to work when you do it. God damn but I hate him.

It didn't take.

Anyone else want to try? No? Good. At some point, arrogance becomes foolishness, and one only embarrasses oneself.

Sleep well, Babylon.

People will be people, Rube.

[postits]

This I know, Vilma.

He shot an innocent girl.

[qinglongweiji.livejournal.com]

I didn't know you were so noble.

[postits]

Oh, I'm not noble. Just can't stand to see someone get hurt who doesn't deserve it.

[qinglongweiji.livejournal.com]

She was being rather petty ...

[postits]

True. But it's nothing that should ever incite a sane person to shoot her.

[qinglongweiji.livejournal.com]

Sadly, it's no one's decision as to who deserves what.

[postits]

Chalk it up to my abhorrence for Ludluck, then.

[qinglongweiji.livejournal.com]

I'll take that over the former.

[postits]

Does my reasoning really bother you that much?

[qinglongweiji.livejournal.com]

No, not at all. I've done worse because of less.

I was just curious as to how honest you were being.

[postits]

Very honest on both counts.

[qinglongweiji.livejournal.com]

It's my turn, now; why does it bother you so much?

[postits]

Ludluck is a vile and manipulative sociopath intent on destroying the few good things and people in this world.

I can't stand to see women and children hurt. Call it a trigger, but it just doesn't sit well with me. Too much of that.

[qinglongweiji.livejournal.com]

If you're willing, I'd like to hear about it.

[postits]

Now?

[qinglongweiji.livejournal.com]

For a late breakfast? I'll be my treat.

[postits]

That sounds fine.

[tomimic.livejournal.com]

He was talking about killing my brother. I don't care if the other stuff was petty. There's a chance we might have never found out before it was too late.

[postits]

There was that, too.

[qinglongweiji.livejournal.com]

Peter, that's not what I meant.

[ex_whoosh450]

I'm so sorry, Rube.

[postits]

Don't be an idiot, you're the last person who should be apologizing.

[ex_whoosh450]

Well. I don't know about that. But I'm glad you're fine.

[postits]

As the man who had five holes in his chest, I think I get a say in who takes the blame.

Thank you.

[ex_whoosh450]

I'm surrounded by invulnerable people. Still, I do feel somewhat responsible for not dealing with Ludluck sooner.

But no, thankyou. My family's important to me, but it's good to know there are other strong people who have my back as well.

[postits]

He's not yours to deal with.

Always.

[repent]

Jeez, I take some time off to party in prison and boom.

[postits]

There was nothing you could have done, it was very sudden.

[repent]

Yeah, "she died without pain", way to sound like a doctor. Hopefully I'll be out before he is. Though you know, shirtless dancing boys kind of a good incentive to cool my heels a little longer.

[postits]

Doesn't make it any less true.

You will be. In the meantime, that's all well and good, I suppose. Don't let them distract you for too long.

[fucktoiletseats.livejournal.com]

Great fucking day.

[postits]

I'm sorry that didn't go as planned.

[fucktoiletseats.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I know.

[postits]

Silver lining, Mason's apartment didn't burn down.

[fucktoiletseats.livejournal.com]

Shit, at least we've got that.

[postits]

Tiny miracles.

[fucktoiletseats.livejournal.com]

Something like that.
