I can't believe you're seriously thinking of sending me there. Don't I have enough terror and trauma in my life without you adding to it? No, you want more monsters and more fear and more of fighting for my life. Thank you. Thank you very much.

You're a crazy person. Seriously, Magnus' creepy pirate cousin is not enough to sway the vote. [ -- ] It doesn't matter how hot he is, I'm going to break my fist on his face and it will be all your fault.

[ EXCUSE YOU. ]

Privateer. It's wholly different from piracy, namely in its legal quality.

[ But then a grin. ] But its nice to know how you really feel about me.

[cupio]

So you're a hipster pirate, got it. [ Stop being so smug, it makes you look ridiculously attractive annoying as sin. ]

I could show you, but I think that's much better left until it'll really make an impact. [ Sweet, sweet angelic smile. ]

[sturmhond]

[ Can't he be both? He has so many wonderful qualities, it can be hard to pick just one. ]

I have no idea what a hipster is, but it sounds insulting. Especially when you say it with that look. That's the sort of look that makes me think mine are in danger.

[ Why must you always aim for the face, Clary? ]

[cupio]

[ :| ]

You know, I'm kind of surprised you're not actually a siren. You think you're good looking and you're in love with the sound of your own voice. Are you on the wrong side of the boat?

[sturmhond]

Are you planning on tipping me overboard?

[ You're funny, Clary. See this smirk? That's how funny you are. ]

Anyway, you're the one who called me good looking. I can hardly be blamed for how perceptive you are.

[cupio]

I did not. [ Fuming so hard I'm surprised you don't see smoke coming off the top of her head. ]

I said you think you are. And besides, plenty of attractive packages turn out to be toxic inside. I've learnt my lesson with that.

[sturmhond]

[ He thinks about the Darkling, and smiles. ]

I should like to think toxic was going too far.

Then again, if this is a regular problem for you, you might consider what the common factor is. Maybe it's you.

[cupio]

[ Punching her in the face would have been kinder than that. ]

I'd avoid people like you if I could. But no, I can't, because my Mundane has decided it's funny because yours encouraged her. So I can't.

[sturmhond]

[ He never promised to be kind. ]

You could do worse than associating with people like me. At least you'll always be entertained. At some point you might even laugh. Stranger things have happened.

[cupio]

[ Crossing her arms over her chest. ]

At or with?

[sturmhond]

[ Laughing himself. ]

I'll settle for either.

Is it true you aren't coming alone?

[cupio]

You have very low standards.

[ Almost defensively. ] Jace is coming with me, yes.

[sturmhond]

My standards are impeccable. It's yours that we're questioning.

[ Leaning back, friendly, looking casual. ] Boyfriend? Jilted lover? Lifelong friend?

[cupio]

[ Rolling her eyes so hard. ]

My bo --. [ A pause, and then that fury just settles across her face. ] My brother.

[sturmhond]

[ Eyebrows lifting just a little. ]

Most people don't struggle with that question. Is he as talented as you are? I'll have to keep my eyes open.

[cupio]

Most people haven't lived my life.

[ A pause. ] Jace is ... he knows what he's doing, he's strong and he's quick and he doesn't take anyone's bullshit. I'd watch where you're stepping around him.

[ She'd watch too. ]

[sturmhond]

[ More laughter. Oh, don't say things like that, you'll only encourage him. ]

See now, that's exactly the sort that needs watching. I'm not worried about your brother, lovely.

Besides which, we'll be on the same side this time. We can even be friends. [ Bright, sweet smile. Aren't you looking forward to this? ]

[cupio]

[ She could tell him that he should be, that everyone should be worried about Jace. But she doesn't, just lets him laugh. ]

Being forced into friendship isn't my idea of a good time. That's what the social justice bloggers have taught me.

[sturmhond]

[ He has no idea what that means, but it's never stopped him before. ]

Understandable. I try not to be friendly with anyone who talks about justice, terribly dreary occupation. You know how I feel about tales of woe.

[cupio]

Because you're a pirate. Justice isn't really your thing. And you're probably living your own tale of woe.

[sankta]

His face can take it. [ She's speaking from experience. ]

I wouldn't say he's worth going to hell for either, though.

now the usernames on plurk make sense.

[cupio]

[ Oh good, she'll have to get her aggression out. ]

I think I'm going to hell anyway. She's pretty much decided. No backsies.

only now?! LOL

[sankta]

You might want to bring a jacket.

now it will be easier !!!!

[cupio]

That I will do. A jacket, weapons, maybe alcohol. I hear that's good. I can use it to bribe people.

Or make the trauma bearable.

[sankta]

You might want to save it for yourself. Or save it for bargaining for something good.
