--oh. [ that throws him slightly off kilter, but he's not unhappy to hear it. ] Thanks. Jon had to put up with a lot of nonsense from me here for a while. That kind of thing sticks in your head.

[beejfu]

Hey. He puts up with it because you're his favorite and he's your favorite and that's beautiful.

You stick with him, baby Hushpuppy. That kind of loneliness will tear you to pieces otherwise.

[corkscrewed]

Yeah.

[ martin shoots him a sort of embarrassed look, but it's distinctly pleased at the same time. ]

Nice to have people to spend time with, too. I mean -

[ he makes a sort of confused face. ]

I - we're friends, right?

[ he honestly does not know. ]

The murder was definitely an accident?

[beejfu]

The murder was totally an accident.

...We're friends?

[corkscrewed]

I mean-

[ martin seems just as confused by his own statement. ]

We're sitting in a hallway playing with a snake together.

[beejfu]

No pun intended.

[He frowns a little, out of confusion more than anything]

Huh.

It's just that this is the first time in a long-ass time where someone else said the 'f' word first.

[Quickly!]

It's great, don't get me wrong, I TOTALLY wanna be friends. It just takes two to tango and I didn't know you felt that way, Hushpuppy.

[corkscrewed]

I mean, I like you, most of the time. When you're not being - intentionally antagonistic. Maybe I should try to get out more.

[ he's leaning back, rubbing his face - weirdly embarrassed. ]

[beejfu]

Well, I like you most of the time when you're not trolling me about killing Sandy here.

[she hisses! no killing!]

Yeah, well. You know. You do one thing for a few hundred years and it's kinda hard to just knock it off.

[corkscrewed]

You just let her loose! It scared me. But - yeah, fine. Those jokes are off the table.

[beejfu]

[He grunts, satisfied]

Well.

Good. Nice.

And I'll...like, I'll TRY to ease up on the antagonism, but you make the greatest faces sometimes when you're irritated!
