I know. I was, that's why I'm telling you.
They both acted like it was necessary to settle things and that's bullshit.

[evocation]

yeah, i know.

[Wash certainly wasn't happy with the way it turned out, and that's what Kyna is most concerned about.]

maybe we can just keep them away from each other.

[braveoff]

I mean.
We can suggest they avoid each other.
But it's a small cave and I'm not putting Ephemera on a leash.

[evocation]

so what are we supposed to do?

[braveoff]

I don't know Wash to say what he needs from you.

[evocation]

[What Wash needs from her? She hadn't really considered that, at least not in any way that would keep Wash and Ephemera from going at each other like this. It takes Kyna a second to respond.]

yeah, well
whatever
i'll figure it out.
what about ephemera?

[braveoff]

Patience and understanding.

[evocation]

i'm not very patient.

[braveoff]

Then maybe work on just walking away.

[evocation]

okay okay fine.

[Ephemera's a dick, but if it'll help Wash, she'll do it. Or she'll try her best, at the very least.]

can you try to get him to chill out a little?

[braveoff]

I'm doing my best. He's different, with me.

[evocation]

different how?

[braveoff]

Well he's not violent, for starters.

[evocation]

well jesus, i hope not.

[braveoff]

I guess
he's still intense, but not in a frightening way.
He's thoughtful and creative and smart, and was protecting me from the first day we knew each other.

All I did differently was treat him like a person.

[evocation]

are you telling me to be nice to him?

[braveoff]

No. You got off on the wrong foot, I don't know if it's fair to ask that now that he's making it so difficult.

I'm just saying he's not always how he is with Washington. There's more there.

[evocation]

[ There's a pause before Drake's next text. He doesn't know how to articulate it properly -- but then he gets an idea. ]

Hey
Do you play cards?

[evocation]

uh
sure?

[braveoff]

Then why don't you come see for yourself?
We were gonna have Lup over for a poker night
What's one more?

[evocation]

dude i appreciate the
sentiment or whatever?
but do you realize how awkward that would be?

[braveoff]

Why though?

[evocation]

uh
he broke my ribs and i electrocuted him.
and then wash fucked him up.
that's not exactly a bunch of bonding moments.

[braveoff]

Gotta start somewhere.

Just think about it.
I can talk about him plenty but seeing is believing.
