You are aware he's obsessed with you, right?

[longlegs]

Why aren't you answering me?

[chokedout]

I did answer you.

You are aware he's obsessed with you, right?

[longlegs]

What, he just stumbled into you and said 'hi, I'm going to torture and/or kill you' out of nowhere?

[chokedout]

Is that so strange to picture? He knew who I was when he spoke to me.

[Not aware he was possible pre-stalked.]

He did also tell me he has no friends, which was a nice tidbit I totally wouldn't have fathomed on my own.

[longlegs]

Jesus Christ. I'm going to fucking kill him!

[ Has he seen (heard) Cellar angry before? Here she is. ]

Did he touch you? At all? You have to tell me.

[chokedout]

No, but he was definitely thinking it.

[While he likes her fury, her protection-]

Don't get angry with him. He reminds me of my ex. It'll make him worse.

[longlegs]

Of course I'm gonna get angry with him! What, does he think he gets to get away with this? I'm not afraid of him. He should be afraid of me.

And he's not like your ex, he's just an asshole.

[ ... yeah okay cellar ]

[chokedout]

[To Theo, the parallels are strong still.]

He's like you, right? What can he do?

[longlegs]

[ Huff, frustrated groan! Okay, just let her vent it out a bit before answering. ]

He does some kind of - life steal thing. Takes it from other people and uses it to heal.

[ Don't tell him how the people he steals from end up, Cellar. ]

[chokedout]

No wonder he has no friends.

[longlegs]

[ Another huff. ]

I'm gonna tell him to leave you alone.

[chokedout]

That'd be great. Is he gonna sharpen knives if he sees us holding hands, though?

[longlegs]

Ugh, he's not that cringe. [ or is he ] I'm sorry.

[chokedout]

[BEGS TO DIFFER-]

It's - anyway, I uh. Gonna try to crowd source some magical back up in case he ever does have reason to stab me in the future. Figured that and you turning me into a hot MMA fighter'll give me a standing chance.

[longlegs]

Okay, yeah.

[ Before she forgets— ]

Don't let them kill him.

[chokedout]

I didn't think we'd stand a chance at that. I wanted to hex his dick but August kind of got annoyed at me for not taking it seriously.

I was taking it seriously.

[longlegs]

[ … Well. ]

Yeah. Uhm. Maybe don't hex his dick either. That will definitely make him worse.

Also, August doesn't know what he's talking about. Dicks are totally serious?

[ these two istg ]

[chokedout]

It would've been a really subtle hex. A rash every other weekend. An unscratchable ball itch. Y'know?

[So serious!!]

But yeah, I'm still brainstorming.

[longlegs]

If it's subtle, how would he know it was meant to stop him?

[ Cellar, you just said don't do it. ]

Anyway, I'll talk to him. God, he's such an ass sometimes.

[chokedout]

It's not, it's meant to make me feeeeel better.

[But, y'know.]

Did you two ever...?

[longlegs]

[ She makes a face, but it's not like she can blame Theo for wondering. They're not exactly the pickiest individuals out there, this pair. ]

No, it was never like that. We're just close, and he gets... intense. He's had a really messed up life.

[chokedout]

So he's just intensely in love with you, but also thinks you're in love with him.

[Not challenging her words, just - contemplating. He's all over team "lead him on for the greater good" here.]

Should I worry about any of his uh, special talents in particular?

[longlegs]

[ She gives the verbal equivalent of a shrug. Girl's been in denial about leading him on, okay. That's her villain storyline, and it involves playing with fire. ]

Just the one.

[ ... That rots and kills people. Uhh. ]

But he isn't gonna touch you.

[chokedout]

But if he does - what... happens?

[Baby, he hasn't learned he's a zomboy yet.]
