i don't really see it that way we care about each other right? we should have the other's back when stuff like this happens so i'm with you no matter what
[ Which he should say in person to remind him, but... well. He's a little distracted by that last question. He'd met V's demons before, in Duplicity, and the thought hadn't actually ever occurred to him. ]
Yeah...you're right. As usual. I know you have my back, and I've got yours no matter what.
So you'll help be with Shadow? I think we could have her until he notices, but we have to figure out a distraction while the other person grabs her. She likes me, so..I think you should do the distracting.
[If his dad can hack off his arm to get stronger then he's taking the fucking cat. Also, Nero might be a little tipsy, but the idea has been there. He just probably would have kept it to himself otherwise.]
What's he gonna do? Wave his cane at us? It's fine. And if Shadow doesn't wanna come, she won't. I don't think she'll go anywhere she doesn't want to.
[Mostly because she can turn to goo and slip away if V needs her back for anything emergent.]
[ ...are you out drinking with this random dude? IS THIS WHY YOU ASKED FOR A THREESOME WHAT IS GOING ON HERE ]
so i try to distract v and if shadow doesn't want to go then what? i'll still be in there!! not that i mind that much or anything but i hope she decides you look like more fun
[ Because how else is he going to slip away??????? This sounds like a bad plan, but he'll go with it to make Nero happy. ]

i wish i could give you better advice or i dunno
do something else?
do you even want me to do anything??
[ Talking doesn't seem to help, and he feels like he's in the middle of some weird, bad breakup. It's awkward. ]
no subject
I think it'll be okay.
We didn't leave on bad terms, I don't think.
I'm not sure. I'd feel bad making you get involved again.
Also, I don't really know what would help, but if you have any ideas I guess I could try..
Also, can we steal his cat?

I'll give you a sign once I've got Shadow.
Or I'll give you a sign if Shadow isn't feeling it.
Either way, there'll be a sign!
After the sign, just..say you have to use the bathroom outside and come home.
no subject
we can figure out the sign later
and just kind of wing it?
[ Can't be that hard. They can do this. Actually, now he wants to. ]
but first i guess we should see some guy about all the other stuff
no subject
Or should we plan to meet up with him some other time?
We can plan the heist for when we get back from Nevei.
Itβll be brilliant.
no subject
i can just meet you if that's okay with him
shouldn't take me too long to get there
no subject
He's here now.
We're at the bar by the ice skating place.
