high risk??
do you know how many jobs i've pulled off flawlessly?????
i'm an expert at everything
you're high risk because you could go fucking bananas without notice

shut up
what happens to the kids like us
delphi told me i was picked out to be her special project so i never met any others

[misarchist]

are you also an expert at shutting the fuck up

if we're not taken from our cribs in the middle of the night we're bred like dogs
in every corner of the world
your mentor should've spent less time teaching you ballet or whatever the fuck it is you do in your spare time and more time teaching you about your own history

[exradiant]

you shut the fuck up

she’s not my mentor
and i don’t have fucking history or any camaraderie with anyone
there’s nothing the same about any of us
all you have to do is get good at what you do and then you’ve got leverage
clearly you missed that lesson
and it’s not ballet it’s fucking martial arts you uncultured goat

[misarchist]

[ don't trigger him ]

if i wasn't good at what i do i wouldn't have baited you so easily you stupid bitch

[exradiant]

you choked in the middle of a job
fact

i did once too
but just once

[misarchist]

i choked lmao

[ itty bitty ᵗᶦⁿʸ rage. it comes and goes in a blink, cracking a nearby shop window as tross passes by. ]

you choked when you left me on that beach

[exradiant]

i wasn’t trying to kill you dumbass
ok i was for a minute but that’s because i thought the poison was gonna get you and i wanted to speed up the process
but after that i wasn’t because i’m not a fucking psycho
plus no one’s paying me to kill you

[misarchist]

no one's going to pay you to kill me unless i'm spec'd as a total loss and that hasn't happened yet
and i doubt that person would ever be you anyway
you should've killed me because i tried to kill you, fucking obviously

[exradiant]

i don’t want to kill you so get the fuck over it
the only person i want to kill is fucking delphi
she’s the only exception
i don’t do that shit anymore
i only do shit that i want to do now

who taught you how to do those mind tricks
you should get a refund

[misarchist]

keep snorting coke til your brain rots by all means

no one taught me how to do shit
i learned to field my abilities on my own
and you still fell for my mind tricks no matter how salty you are about it

[exradiant]

i only do the good kind my brain is fine

well there’s your problem right there
you never had a sensei
is there a place or something we can hit up to find other freaks like us

[misarchist]

what a bold yet factually incorrect claim

if you look hard enough yeah
downtown la specifically

[ tross knows all the deviant-owned clubs and bars by heart and largely avoids interacting with them. ]

looking to replace me already?

[exradiant]

you're a factually incorrect claim

i'm not gonna replace you
you're my one and only freak of nature friend
i'm just curious about what the other ones can do

i want some soft serve
you in

[misarchist]

[ son u just ain't right ]

running late for a gig rn

[ a surprisingly soft rejection. then ten minutes later: ]

we can go when i'm done
i don't work at the club tonight

[exradiant]

what kinda gig

ok but you have to promise not to invade my fucking privacy
if you want to know something just ask like a normal person
also we're meeting in a public place

[misarchist]

pics for an ad spread for some up-and-coming hipster lingerie boutique in bev hills
tasteful nudity
ill be a few hrs tops

public is fine if being alone with me makes you nervous
pick the place and i can meet you there whenever

[exradiant]

cool buy me some lingerie

i'm not NERVOUS
i just don't want two bullshit nights in the same week
excuse me for taking precautions

[misarchist]

i'm broke

you know why precautions exist
bc the person taking the precautions is NERVOUS about the potential outcome of the upcoming event
it's fine anyway, we can meet in public

[exradiant]

wait really
that's so lame

whatever
i'll text you the address of a party i'll be at
come by when you're done

[misarchist]

had to break my lease
hard up for cash til i get paid next week

sure
but if you're really wasted i'm gonna leave you there

[exradiant]

if you can break shit with your brain you should learn how to fix shit too

fine i promise i'll be only moderately wasted
then we can go burgle some rich people's houses

[misarchist]

there was nothing wrong with my apartment
i just couldn't stay there
if i was smart i'd have left the state the night you smeared cake all over my floors but thankfully for you i'm only book smart vs street smart

can we start with your house

[exradiant]

man don't ever let me eat that much cake again
what kind of fucking friend are you
where would you have gone

it's true that i live in a bougie ass building but i'm talking about the uppercrust here
the ones with mansions that are fun to climb
plus you just told me you're broke and pathetic so why not

[misarchist]

the kind of friend that's not your friend at all
northeastern coast
upper new england

MOMENTARILY broke
i dont need to steal from ppl's houses when i can steal from their pockets for like a quarter of the effort
is that what you do for fun? drugs and b&es?

[exradiant]

it gets cold there
you're better off here

i just like to keep my skills sharp
that doesn't sound fun to you????
slipping into someone's mansion and seeing what cool stuff you can find???????
dude it's the best
even better if you jump on their bed for a while
what kind of joyless freak are you
