This isn't paradigm paralysis. Egoism is a rational conclusion, a philosophical checkmate, not an obstacle. Besides, tell me this doesn't sound clichéd: "our unlikely hero overcomes his tragic past by unwittingly forming connections with people."

Of course you can't. I'm sorry to have to tell you this, but you have terminal idiot sentimentality. There is no cure.

Shut.

The.

Fuck.

Up.

[trollverine]

I've missed you too.

[bullseye]

[scoffing]

Yeah, I'll bet. Like a fuckin' hole in the head.

[trollverine]

Don't be so hard on yourself.

[bullseye]

Laugh it up, you little shit, but we all know the only connections you form with people are antagonistic. Everyone hates you and you're too full of it to notice.

[trollverine]

I thought we had something special. What about that night in Reno?

1/3

[bullseye]

What?

2/3

[bullseye]

What are you talking about?

[bullseye]

What night in Reno?

[trollverine]

You mean you don't remember?

1/2

[bullseye]

No.

[bullseye]

You're lying.

[but he sounds unsure...]

[trollverine]

[if only it would be worth the effort to go to Reno and get a hotel keycard and plant it in Bullseye's stuff somehow. ALAS]

Don't worry; denial is perfectly normal.

[bullseye]

[sneering with maybe just a little too much bravado:]

You're just tryin' to fuck with me. Newsflash: I ain't fooled. I know what you're doing, and it won't work.

[can daken smell that doubt? idek what his crazy powers are anymore]

[trollverine]

Whatever helps you sleep at night.

[bullseye]

You know what helps me sleep at night, princess? Thinkin' about all the ways I can torture you until you're beggin' me to kill you.

Are you sure you wanted to admit that? It's kind of kinky and obsessive.

sweet

[bullseye]

[for a moment, the expression on his face makes him look like he's constipated going to explode with rage. but then.]

Not nearly as kinky and obsessive as what you got going on with your dad.

1/2

[trollverine]

[SO CLOSE.]

[trollverine]

A clumsy change of tactics, but good effort.

[bullseye]

Fuck you. That was a flawless segue.

[menaced]

I thought you died.

[trollverine]

I'm not easy to kill.

[menaced]

Damn.

[kneecaptain]

Man, do you even listen to yourself?

[trollverine]

What an ironic thing to say. Were the words too big?

[kneecaptain]

Don't worry. I understood.

[trollverine]

You know, I was wondering: do you ever put on your patriotic clown suit and feel like a fraud?

[kneecaptain]

Nah.

Do you ever put on your daddy's pyjamas and feel like a chump?

[trollverine]

Nah. Does he know you call them that?

lmao I should have worked "princess" into that last tag somehow

[kneecaptain]

Why? Are you gonna tell on me?

LOOK WHAT YOU DID

[trollverine]

I think I've already told him that people secretly don't respect him.

[kneecaptain]

So why the dress-up?

[trollverine]

I could ask you the same thing, but then we'd be getting to know each other.

[kneecaptain]

And that's a cliché.

[wild_child]

*head tilt*

Ya don't look like an egghead, but yer talkin' like one.

[arach_nerd]

Better that than your deep-seated and frankly disturbing daddy issues.
