"Ask your new friend. Maybe she knows something." [i] He says with a grin.[/i]
-
If you mean Red, what do you think the odds are she would actually tell me? She hates me. That's just that. [b]He looks down at the ground[/b]
-
"I had a conversation with her mentor yesterday."
-
About what?
-
"Did you not recall what Red's last interaction entailed with her mentor, Jinx?"
-
Didn't realize.. God I'm slow. Why do I feel like that didn't end well for her mentor.
-
"No, she's still in one piece." [i] He says blandly.[/i] "That's Red's battle to fight, not mine. And no matter how big and bad her mentor is, she knew who I was and wasn't stupid enough to piss me off."
-
And she was "lucky" enough to see your ace?
-
"I said I had a conversation with Jinx. What does my ace have anything to do with anything?" [i] He says like Nobody is a complete idiot.[/i]
-
You also said to ask my "friend" about it.
-
"I said ask Red if you're so curious, maybe she'll know, considering she's been trying to keep track of everything about me. Then I said that speaking of Red, I went and talked to the woman who had her tortured for 5 days. Two seperate thoughts. You follow now?" [i] He says, chucking the rock into the ocean.[/i]
-
[b]He sighs and falls back on his back[/b] I think the sleep deprivation is finally getting to me.
-
"Take that as a yes. I asked her about Red, and she told me everything about her pretty willingly."
-
Mind sharing with a hopeless soul?
-
"Yes, I do mind." [i] He says with a mischievous grin.[/i]
-
[b]He just sighs[/b]
-
"You gotta figure that out yourself kid. One thing I will tell you; no one has ever cared for her except Jinx; and she sold her out and had her tortured for a position of power."
-
[b]He snorts[/b] Great. So she's more likely to just stab me on a whim than give me a chance to do anything. [b]He sounds sad[/b] [spoiler]Sorry, this time I passed out.[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]that makes us even haha.[/spoiler] "Kid, if people gave up on everything they wanted to do; it would be a very dull world."
-
I dunno about you, but I've had enough swords shoved through me. I don't know that I'm giving up. Just venting I suppose.
-
"Mmhm."
-
Got any advice for a young whippersnapper like myself, o wise one?
-
[i] He chuckles.[/i] "For her? She's a sociopathic natural born killer, who holds no regard for anyone but herself and has no emotions but hate, from what I can see. Can't save I've been down that road; as experienced as I may be."
-
Brilliant.
-
[i] He shrugs.[/i] "Sorry." [i] He stands up, dusting his armor off.[/i] "Ready?"
