schemes and things at lastvoyages

[sixthanimorph]

Hey, I get your enthusiasm, but you really are getting ahead of yourself. There's still no telling when Arthas will make his move, Slick didn't stick around long enough to bother joining in, that Drake guy's probably useless without his magic. and Wanda... I don't even know what Wanda's gonna do. So cool it.

What are you laughing about? 'You're finally learning patience?' Screw you. This isn't new, I've always been patient when I needed to be. This isn't anything different, and it's definitely not the Barge changing me. Because it's not.

And yeah, I know Tim and Dick are gonna be pissed. So what? I gave Dick everything he needed to know. My responsibility's taken care of. And as for Tim... he's got no place talking to me about what I should do if he really did let Sylar kill people.

As for Dean and Viserys... I know I oughta jump in, but honestly? I wanna sit back and watch a little bit longer. Maybe get some popcorn.

No? Ah, you're no fun.

You have a really messed up understanding of responsibility.

[sixthanimorph]

I gave you insider information and you're gonna hammer me for it? So much for gratitude.

[batmanschmatman]

You're still apparently kidnapping me and asking for information I don't have.

[sixthanimorph]

Quit being a baby. You're not even gonna get beat up or anything, and it's not like you have to worry about me bringing Hoffman into it.

[batmanschmatman]

Wow.

[sixthanimorph]

It's not gonna be any worse than what you did to me back in Halloween. I don't know what you're acting all condescending for.

[batmanschmatman]

Because I thought you were actually making progress. But it turns out, you're still just being irrational and stupid, especially if you're drawing that comparison.

[lastmanstanding]

Planning on taking a leaf from my book?

[sixthanimorph]

No. I'm gonna change something. Arthas has a plan to finally change things, and I'm gonna be a part of it. This isn't anything like you.

[lastmanstanding]

No, of course not. Manhandling people, putting them in dangerous situations all for the bent of some- [have a decidedly bitter laugh] useless misguided attempt to improve things for the barge or for other people is absolutely nothing like me.

[sixthanimorph]

No, it's not. You've never tried to help anyone, everything you've ever done was for yourself. You played me like a fucking puppet and then threw me away when you got bored with me. You think you're so better than us, but Costigan was right about you all along. You're just an animal.

[lastmanstanding]

You have-

[deep breath. Yeah, he's talking about the vampire thing.]

And so what? You think he has all the answers?

[sixthanimorph]

He's been here longer than anyone else. He's seen what other inmates have tried. If he thinks he has a plan, I believe him.

[gorillawarfare]

Someone's looking a lot less twitchy.

[sixthanimorph]

So. Smart-mouth Marco finally shows up. Now all I need is the bird and I'll have the whole set.

[gorillawarfare]

Smart-mouth and devilishly handsome Marco, thanks.

Isn't there a lego you should be clinging to somewhere?

[sixthanimorph]

Go a few rounds with me and I can fix that.

I don't know, maybe you can tell me when you crawl out of your closet.

[gorillawarfare]

You know you're a rat, right? Like. Literally. I feel as if this might have gotten lost somewhere in between the villainous goading and bravado.

[sixthanimorph]

Not anymore. Maybe you didn't get the memo. You oughta ask Rachel... oh wait, you can't. Because I killed her.

for old time's sake....

[terminates]

Idiot.

YESSSSSSS

[sixthanimorph]

You...

You're still alive?

:3

[terminates]

Apparently.

[ Drier than the Sahara on a summer's day, that tone. ]

The view from the outside is always much better.

[sixthanimorph]

[ He remembers that tone well. And while he wasn't really happy he left, it'd be a huge stretch to say he's thrilled to see him now. ]

Lucky you. Some of us don't have that luxury.

[terminates]

[ He should be glad he left. The sight of Deathstroke the Terminator unhinged would be a terrible thing to see. ]

It's a difficult place to be.

[ And that's all he'll say about that, yup. ]

[sixthanimorph]

[ Yeeeeeah, he's ready enough of the comics to know he really doesn't want to see what Slade would've done the Barge if he got mad enough. ]

I'll trade places with you right now if you want.

[ As ever, the grass is always browner on his side of the fence. ]
