[Is a small part of Shaun that's still feeling pretty awful about not letting Sheehan know about his personal armory really relieved that this couldn't have come from him? We'll never know.]
How about we talk about it when you're back on your feet again? You should probably be recovering, not worrying about a grown adult's squabbles with another grown adult.
Second--you are the worst. Even George, who is fatally allergic to taking a break thinks you get to take a few days off after getting blown up. Have friends over. Let people take care of you. Go on a date. I don't know. Do the normal things people do when they're laid up. My whining about my dumb friend and her dumb decision to turn into a dumb dog isn't going anywhere, and it can wait, okay?
Anyway, it's not like there's a lot to say. We're talking. She apologized for the way she told me. I still think it's the stupidest thing I've ever heard of, and the fact that she has a kill switch in her head is awful, but I guess I can stop being mad at her about it.
If you keep saying nice things about me I might start blushing. I feel like I need to get into a fight just to get on even footing again, except you'd know my heart wasn't in it.
Anyway, just so you know--you're one of my people, too.
[Sigh. He knows he's just being difficult for the sake of being difficult.]
Because vengeance is more about making yourself feel better than it is about any real justice, and it doesn't actually make you feel that much better in the long run anyway.
Exactly. And you might end up hurting the people you actually care about, the ones who matter. If you kill or hurt someone because of me, how do you think I would feel about it?

I'm - out for a few days. If you need anything, though, send me a message.

I'm good, Sheehan, but do you need anything? I brought Maggie dinner earlier. I can grab you something if you want.

And--not mended. It's a work in progress.

I don't need anything.

Besides, you're hardly a grown man.

Tell me about your dumb friend and her dumb decision to turn into a dumb dog.

For what it's worth, you've been handling your anger very well.
But if you want to let it go, then you're doing so with remarkable grace. You've come a long way, Shaun.
no subject
I don't know. She didn't do it at me. People do stupid shit all the time. Why is this stupid thing getting under my skin so much.

That's what I'm getting mushy about.

Anyway, just so you know--you're one of my people, too.
Don't get weird about it.
no subject
But you aren't going to do something stupid like avenge me, are you?
no subject
But I won't if you don't want me to.

Can you guess why?
