Tell me if you've heard this one before.

[sleuthtastic]

What's the phrase— we used to be friends, a long, long time ago?

[opj]

But I haven't thought of you in nine years?

Sounds about right.

[sleuthtastic]

Is that bitterness I hope to find in your voice, Logan?

[opj]

Of course not. I mean, aren't you thrilled to relive senior year?

[sleuthtastic]

Thrilled? Hm. I don't think that word means what you think it means.

[opj]

C'mon Mars, you have to look for the bright side.

[sleuthtastic]

I looked at a glass half-full, once. That was kind of bright.

[opj]

Then you realized it was terrible, and went back to your normal sunny disposition?

[sleuthtastic]

Got it in one.

[opj]

Good attitude. Very New York.

[sleuthtastic]

And yet, I get the feeling that you have changed very little, Mr Neptune.

[opj]

Not all of us can flee across the country. It'd get cliche.

[misspixiestick]

Oh, my god. Poor Piz.

[ Look, it's a little easier to cringe at your own behavior when exposed to it in the third person, alright. ]

[opj]

Like he wasn't asking for it. I mean, really now, what did he expect?

[misspixiestick]

... hold on, back that fun bus up. 'Asking for it'? Care to let me know just what you mean by that, exactly?

[opj]

Did dating an emotionally unavailable danger junkie work out for him last time?

Spoiler alert. Not so much.

[misspixiestick]

People can change a lot in ten years. Maybe not you, judging by the entourage of one to still have by way of Dick- but most people.

[opj]

Says the girl starring in the noir remake of 'Sweet Home Alabama'.

[misspixiestick]

Really, Logan? Really? That's what it comes down to? Showing a little gratitude probably wouldn't kill you.

[opj]

I'm sure you'll get shown plenty of gratitude in nine years. Or seventy days. Whatever.

[misspixiestick]

Yooou're an ass, and I hope I lose this case.

[opj]

You won't.

[misspixiestick]

Logan. It's been a decade.

[opj]

And?

[misspixiestick]

People get rusty. I've gotten rusty.

[opj]

You could have a little more faith in your ability to keep me out of jail, you know, again.

[misspixiestick]

I still haven't figured out why it's still my job to bail you out. All this? Way, way in the past, Logan.

[opj]

Why hire high priced lawyers and private dicks when you have a college girlfriend to turn to?

[misspixiestick]

You were supposed to have forgotten my name ten years ago.

[opj]

Yeah, because that was going to happen.

[misspixiestick]

It could have. Despite some pretty... incredible circumstances, I guess? There was nothing really ever that incredible about us. You know that, right?

[opj]

Kinda got the memo, yeah.

[psh, they were epic, not incredible. get it right mars.]

[misspixiestick]

[ entirely possible she was avoiding that phrasing on purpose ]

... I can't believe you're still hanging around Dick Casablancas. That's really the most baffling thing about all of this.

[opj]

Not the most baffling thing, but...

[insert shrug here]

Maybe he's grown as a person.

[misspixiestick]

I think it's more likely that you've regressed.

[ Or maybe she's just grumpy about the high school reunion. ]

-- it's good to see you, though. I guess.

[opj]

It's a charming side effect of Neptune.

I guess the feeling's mutual. Even if it took a murder rap.

[misspixiestick]

Guess I'll be seeing you around, Logan.
