You're still hung up on those? My dear Eva, I'm sure I'm not the first one to tell you this: but you really need to learn to let go. [ of the edge of the cliff. heh. ]
Besides, that? That was practically murder! [ have you ever tried to give a guy that's like a million feet tall and on fire a back massage? have you? ] I feel I've more than paid for these imagined crimes, if it please you.
That's too bad, because I don't feel like you've even come close to paying for anything! I would have thought being trapped with Rushu would be it, but he's disappointingly soft.
I suppose you wouldn't be singing the same tune if the shoe were on the other foot.
[ and said so tightly and quickly ohh it's just so obvious something is up] We're doing just fine, just a little bit behind schedule, and like I said, we don't need any more distractions.
In any case, I think I may have more business with you than you think... But, time will tell. It'd be nice to see that bright, cheery smile of yours again!
How can you still have business with me? Is your getting caught in Rushu's realm somehow my fault? Maybe I should just find the nearest ledge and wait for you there.
... Like I said before -- we're going to have a lot to deal with. ['we' being her and her friends you aren't in the awesome club] But I would hope at the first chance you get, you'll run and stay out of it.
Not because I'm worried, I just really don't want to see you.
I'm sorry, am I supposed to base my expectations off of my own experiences, or trust the word of the man who tried to kill me for no reason? [screw your debts, man]
[crap. he's right. this is way bigger than a single xelor gone rogue... heh.]
[scoff!]
As if you would be welcomed with opened arms, they haven't forgotten what you did. [except maybe yugo.] But if you hinder us in any way, I won't need any ledges to get rid of you.
First of all, you will stay away from her. Far away.
And she isn't mature enough to understand what it means to be a part of the Brotherhood. She doesn't have a sense of responsibility, it's all fun and games to her.

What'll it be tonight, Evangelyne? Sympathy, or your usual, charming brand of ruthlessness? I haven't had the easiest time of it here, you know.
no subject
Isn't it obvious? I'm terrified for you.
As amusing as it was, being Rushu's play-thing doesn't exactly compensate for all of the murder attempts, sorry. [except she isn't]

Tell you what: what can I do for you to convince you I'm not the vill -- [ hm. ] -- as much of a villain as you've made me out to be?
[ :) ] No tricks, I promise.
no subject
[flatly] Stay away from my friends and I. We already have so much to deal with, the last thing we need is a tour of the local cliff-sides.
no subject
I suppose I can stop talking about my woes for a minute... Things aren't going so well for you and your friends, either?
Or -- don't tell me -- someone else is throwing you off high places? [ he pulls another face. ] I thought what we had was special.
no subject
But that isn't really any of your business.

oh this be a combo

We had a visitor. Scary guy -- actually, Yugo may know him. [ soberly. ] To be honest, we may all want to find a ledge to jump off soon.

[ hey. ] And come now, I can't be that predictable.

You may not think you need my help, but would your friends turn it away if offered?

I don't know, it sounds like your Iop, at least, has other things on his mind. [ a beat. ] "Mind" being a figure of speech, of course.

[ huh! ] You're quite good at excluding people, you know! At this rate we may just have to form our own Brotherhood...

[ shrug! ] But, what do I know?
no subject
She's safe back home, not with me.
no subject
You're probably right. But you can either stay safe at home and never grow up, or go out into the world and make something of yourself.
And, well, if it were me, I'd prefer to have by my side someone I knew I could count on.
