They're not gonna give me space to work with Khonshu, to pull them into that again.

It's fine. I've always done what's needed to be done... ever since I was born. Or popped up. Whatever.

You think if the others know about me, they'll put a leash on me?

[freakymagoo]

Are you saying you wouldn't enjoy that?

Marc doesn't get to pick and choose that he wants to deal with Steven and doesn't want to deal with you. One day one of them is going to wake up in Mogadishu. Are you just going to pray it's always going to be Marc?

[justneedsomehelp]

What, you gonna offer if I do?

I've taken shit for them, again and again. Marc and Steven have no idea about me beyond some black outs and a hell of a lot of blood. I'm not gonna let them get hurt.

But I gotta live my life too. Without the obnoxious morality thrown at me.

[freakymagoo]

No. I don't want to have to explain that to Marc or Steven if you stop steering.

Fine. We can work on it. If you want my help.

[justneedsomehelp]

Oh, is that what you're worried about? Never had one of them interrupt my private time before...

Work on it how? Don't say therapy. I don't need some quack messing up my head.

[freakymagoo]

No I mean, you'll just introduce yourself to them slowly. Show them the less [...] violent side of you.

[justneedsomehelp]

And which side am I supposed to show'em?

[freakymagoo]

You must have something in common with Marc at least? If not Steven.

[justneedsomehelp]

Oh, sure. Just let me freshen up on my French poetry and bring a bottle of booze with me, y'know? It'll go fine and dandy. Bet we'll all hug and they'll tell me I complete'em too.

[freakymagoo]

You hardly even speak English.

What do you think they do, exactly?

[justneedsomehelp]

I'm speaking English with you right now! Pendejo.

You think I don't watch them? I know them like the back of my hand. I've had to act like them enough times if I've had to come out before them.

[freakymagoo]

Again with the namecalling.

Marc doesn't hug.

[justneedsomehelp]

You just bring it out of me.

What, did he say no to your advances? You've just never seen him hug Steven then.

[freakymagoo]

He can't hug Steven. You're all the same person.

[justneedsomehelp]

When we separated in the afterlife.

And it's more complicated than that.

[freakymagoo]

You make the wildest shit up on the spot.

[justneedsomehelp]

I'm not making it up! It happened!

[freakymagoo]

I'm not stupid, or gullible.

[justneedsomehelp]

You don't get it. Whatever. Just don't try to put us in a padded room or in any strait jacket.

And we're not the same.

[freakymagoo]

You sure you won't enjoy that one either?

[justneedsomehelp]

Enjoy what? Being drugged up the rest of our lives?

[freakymagoo]

The straitjacket.

[justneedsomehelp]

Maybe I'd like you in one.

[freakymagoo]

Yeah I'm sure you'd love to have your way with me.

[Bucky might be laughing but he probably wouldn't be if he knew what Jake really wanted to do to him.]

[justneedsomehelp]

I can promise you'd never forget it.

[Which can be taken as a promise or a threat. You know. One or the other.]
