If he was just a masseuse, why would you need to kill him in the first place? Couldn't you just threaten him into whatever you wanted?

[grandschemed]

Depends on why I was tryin' ta kill him, don't it?

[ hmm ]


He did kinda have the look of someone you wouldn't wanna fuck with, from the poster ...

[unbr8kable]

Sometimes those're the most fun guys to mess with, though. And to be fair, so do you. Those tattoos were real, right?

[grandschemed]

Yeah, I still got 'em here.

[ he pries his collar down some to show a bit of one on his chest ]

[unbr8kable]

That's so badass...

[grandschemed]

Ya think so? Thanks.

[unbr8kable]

Of course! Those must've taken hours, right? That's a lot of needles to be stuck with. The stories behind 'em must be sooo sweet.

[grandschemed]

I figure they took hours, but s'not like I remember all the stories behind 'em yet.

Kinda do wanna find out, though.

[unbr8kable]

That's how they get you, isn't it? You find out "huh, guess I've probably got a cool backstory," and then you've gotta play their little games.

[grandschemed]

Y'know, I didn't even mind that last game up until the last little bit there.

[unbr8kable]

[for a moment she almost looks sheepish]

Mm... My team was just messing around and then everyone else was freaking out and it was over; kinda missed the juicy parts.

[grandschemed]

The "juicy" part was over pretty goddamn fast.

[unbr8kable]

You'd rather it dragged out?

[grandschemed]

I'd rather a buncha kids didn't throw themselves off the goddamn stage before we had a chance to talk it out.

[unbr8kable]

...That's probably why they picked a bunch of kids. Sedately discussing the best course of action isn't really must-see TV.

[grandschemed]

That makes a whole tonna sense, don't it?

[unbr8kable]

Yup. People like you can remember reasons not to just jump in. People like me already jumped.

[shrugs]

[grandschemed]

[ he snorts. ]

Well, I was just thinkin' there's better ways than just throwin' yourself off a stage. I was gonna fight someone for it.

[unbr8kable]

Oh yeah, that'd definitely be more interesting. --Hey, you probably know a lot about fighting, huh? Teach me.

[grandschemed]

-- I don't remember tons about fightin'. Like it comes kinda naturally, but I dunno if I'd be a great teacher if I can't even put words to it.

[unbr8kable]

[waves a hand]

Okay, fine. How about you practice beating up some people, and I watch and ask some questions or something? Like--like a master class or something?

[grandschemed]

I mean, I could try givin' straight up lessons to ya too if ya don't mind me bein' a bad teacher.

[unbr8kable]

You're a probably dangerous old man I've known for about twenty minutes, most of which were spent watching you go after some stranger with a knife. I'm not really looking for teacher qualifications or five-star reviews.

Hey--if you're worried, we can make it one of those live things, so even if it's a shitshow, we still get some points for it.

[grandschemed]

Now that's an idea. I dunno how much we'd be doin' for my unit's live points, though -- ain't count if I'm breakin' people.

[unbr8kable]

Okay, what if we gotta use weapons from the environment? Now you're breaking stuff AND people!
