if U got kidnapped and about to be gobbled up by a big squishy monster, ill rush in too. BUT!!!! ive been TRAINED to do stuff like that. and and and aaaaaannnd i jog 2x a day, practice my shooting, adjust or make MORE bombs, AND i kill those weird plant wiggles on my downtime. makes sense for me to come in and take care of whatever is out there. but THOSE wet noodles? do they even know how to fight? ive only seen 2 people do really cool stuff.
I appreciate the sentiment. Perhaps I've forgotten some of the spontaneity of youth after my time at the top of the Undercity where rushing in was a good way to die.
[He'd always been a planner and a schemer even in his youth. He didn't have size on his side, and the Undercity had been just as rough then as it was now.]
All the more reason to keep you off of the island in case it was little more than a one-way ticket. Besides, while they are gone on their little mission, they leave behind plenty of opportunities here that I intend to take full advantage of.
one-way ticket? uh yeah! for the monsters, not me. it takes a lot to kill a jinx. also all this business stuff u do sure do stink! keeping on eye on them makes me want to blow my brains out, shove it BACK in my head then shoot it out again. 2 here. WAIT NO! 3. ive seen 3 nifty things.
Twenty-something then. So he's treating you like a sibling.
[He thinks. Silco doesn't actually have siblings and by the time he met with Vander, both of them were trying to play tough too much to baby one another.]
( there's a slight delay as her eyes glosses over his words a few times. when ragna stopped by their home with a cake on her birthday, she insisted he stay over and share the cake with her because he is family. he didn't seem too keen with the idea when she skimmed over that little detail, but if this is silco's prospective then maybe he does see them as family after all.
she wonders if that bothers her father any deep down. he wants them to be them and only them, however more and more people are entering her heart these days. would silco feel claustrophobic if this keeps up? would he feel left out or replaced? she hopes not. his daughter is doing her damnest to express he is still on top of her hierarchy of all her pets she adopted. sucking in her lips and complimenting, she finally writes: )
what if he sees me as a sibling?
( it's her way of asking: "how does that make you feel if someone else besides vi is a family to me?" )
[He wasn't an avoidance type, but death gave him a certain change to perspective. Perhaps she could find some happiness here; she was in a better place than Zaun already.]
( as much as she despises vi and caitlyn together and want to keep them separated, even a dummy can see they are becoming closer and closer each given day. not wanting this conversation to twist sour, she perks it up with this: )
well! if im going to have more brothers and stuff, at least we dont have to worry about me having more than one dad. cause that wont happen!
brothel trick!! HA HA HA AH AH AHA HAHAHAHA! that's so funny!!!! hey hey MAYBE back home hes the head of that!!! he looks smooth enough to pull it off. hell yeah im ur bodyguard! the best there is.
Perhaps. You either accept it or you work to change their mind.
[Or if they were him, double down. Let them all despise him. Or fear him. He had no reason to change their minds because it suited his purpose. He had a goal, and he'd stop at nothing.
This was going to be Jinx's kingdom. His time was best spent building it up for her then pass it to her.]
You're used to having adoptive siblings from the past. This isn't a stretch.
[He expected she meant it as an assurance, but before this point, he hadn't put much thought in the possibility of a parental figure rival. Now he turned much of his attention to it.]
( well so far from his writing, he doesn't seem to be upset or fazed over the fact of newer family members. maybe she was thinking too much into things or assuming things again. )
