thats really trustworthy thanks

say what you wanna say

[solarcharged]

The peace offering is answers. I get the impression you haven't met many alternate versions of yourself.

[thingpuncher]

what if i dont got questions
you ever think i dont wanna know this shit?

[solarcharged]

Fine. Consider it just an open line of dialogue then. Doesn't have to be about anything in particular. Questions, insults, whatever you feel like.

This is me reaching out. Peace offering, remember?

[thingpuncher]

sure
fine if itll make you feel better
but im not apologising

[solarcharged]

I know. I'm not expecting you to apologise. I just don't think things need to be bad between us. And I'm including Midnighter in that 'us' in case it wasn't clear.

[thingpuncher]

you always speak for him

[solarcharged]

Sometimes. And sometimes he speaks for me. But he likes to speak with his fists. You know what I mean.

[ Actually you kinda know that on two levels now, M, don't you? ;) ]

[thingpuncher]

[mood.]

yeah im not asking for apologies either
what do you WANT with me
thats my question

[solarcharged]

You weren't going to get one. Trust me.

I told you what I want. Things don't need to be difficult between us. It's a small station. We don't need to be enemies.

[thingpuncher]

dont worry
i know how that one ends

you think i wanna be your enemy?

[solarcharged]

I think Midnighters don't back down from a fight. Whether they want it or not.

[thingpuncher]

fair enough
if you come at me ill make you work for it

[The implication, unspoken, that Apollo will win.]

hoping you wont
not planning on coming for you
or getting in your business
your life is yours
obviously pretty fucking different than mine
none of my business

[solarcharged]

Jesus Christ, I'm not going to come at you.

[ Yeah 'none of my business' except wait hang on guess what it kind of is and the door swings both ways. ]

I know you said you don't want to find out more about us but if you change your mind then you know where I am. I might have a few questions of my own.

I'm not going to ask them unless you're ready to answer them.

[thingpuncher]

oh for fucks sake
just spill it already andrew

[solarcharged]

Yes. That. "Andrew"?

[ question #1 ]

[thingpuncher]

what you prefer andy in this universe

[solarcharged]

No, I prefer my actual name. I've never heard of any of us being called "Andrew" before.

[thingpuncher]

apollo
shit
i talked to this weird kid that said you didnt remember anything

[solarcharged]

There are a few weird kids on board.

So your Apollo regained his memories?

[thingpuncher]

if ur digging i dont know anything about them
didnt use their real name

not regained
never lost
why would you they didnt do any brainwork on you
what the fuck happened

[solarcharged]

Bendix happened. Didn't he?

[thingpuncher]

well yeah
guess where your from he took your memory just for kicks

[solarcharged]

Not really. When we became Apollo and the Midnighter we lost everything to do with our old lives. Including our memories.

Does Andrew have a surname?

[thingpuncher]

[There's that 'we' again. He has nothing to say to it, so he doesn't.]
