also i'm not a cannibal

[bootyshortsforoldmen]

OK. So what did that “although” mean

Thought you could distract me huh

Sounds like a cannibal in denial

[Hank doesn’t argue with the “you’re not worth the effort” bit because that, at least, is true.]

[banworthy]

i'll tell you when we meet
how's that?

you can ask me a total of three questions
and i'll answer honestly

in return
i get one favor

okay?

[bootyshortsforoldmen]

Oh god

Here we are talking about cannibalism and the weird guy wants a favor

Lemme guess. You’re not gonna tell me what the favor is until you get here

[banworthy]

shhh

and i'll answer that one for free
i don't have a favor in mind
just always nice to have a favor a person owes you

[bootyshortsforoldmen]

If I’m gonna owe you for the three questions, then this “““favor”” better be equivalent to that

No pulling weird shit on me. Not gonna kill someone just cause you let me ask some questions

[banworthy]

why would i

i'll meet you soon

[bootyshortsforoldmen]

Yeah yeah. On my way back too

You may get the fuck into my apartment, Vincent. This one time

( with her device in her hands, heather stared down at the glowing screen for a long time before she finally began to type out what exactly she wanted to say. she felt like she had known vincent for a long time now and to allow himself to die again seemed...

unusual to say the least. she wasn't sure of the full details of his latest demise, with maria keeping it vague but she felt compelled to check up on him.

at least. )

so....dead again? what happened?

( this is as much comfort as he's going to get from her, because she's not really sure what needed. )

[banworthy]

[ He stares at the message and feels a sense of relief. It seems like Maria did as he asked and didn't tell Heather the gruesome details of his demise. However, he didn't return to the train as he thought that he would - instead, he awoke back on Etraya.

No other people there sans Aurora and the companion bots. Only himself and the pets that people left behind. He squirreled himself away back in Stonhyrr. It seems he was knocked out of continuing to participate in the mission, but his mission had succeeded.

Still ... for the first few days, he felt his fingers tremble and hands shake. The fear of death choked him in ways that he never experienced before. Well, it makes sense; the way that he died was violent and painful (however brief that pain was).

Maybe he should cherish himself more. His smile twists on his face; people would say he cherishes himself more than anyone else and he should try to think about others more. Yes, he's aware of his faults. But enough of all that thinking - a response is required. ]

I miscalculated how heroic I could be.

[ingestion]

( as his response came in, she looked down at the words with a shocked expression and full of confusion. heroic? she nearly wanted to scream out that word and laugh at the strangeness of all of this.

since when was he heroic and yet a part of her wondered if he was finally taking her advice to heart. she had told him if he tried, he could be liked after all- but she wasn't quite expecting this. could it be? the cold, menacing and calculating vincent actually did something nice for someone?

she didn't know the details around it really, and it was all speculation. so all she could do was think of what to say and ask next. )

you cared enough about someone to save them? is that correct?

[banworthy]

[ He clicks his tongue - that was the wrong thing to send.

But it's fine. ]

I merely wanted them to live and ended up dying.

I don't think "care" had anything to do with it. More like bad luck.

[ingestion]

for some reason I don't believe that.

( she was absolutely curious about who he had 'saved' and why he wanted them to 'live', but for now she decided to pry further and see what he'll say all on his own.

heather didn't quite consider herself a manipulator by any means but....if he called her out on it, she would just say it was curiosity. )

[banworthy]

Why not?

Or rather which part don't you believe?

[ingestion]

you make it seem like you don't care, or that *not* saving them was more of a burden than saving them but I think...

vincent I think you've become less of a 'grinch' in your time here.
