[oh okay]

[what does having a chill feel like joker]

Mars: oh
Mars: . . . okay well that’s easy

[criminaljustice]

[idk man...]

Joker: yep
Joker: good job

[foolmetwice]

Mars: thanks???
Mars: i. . . think?

[criminaljustice]

Joker: anything else?

[foolmetwice]

[. . .]








Mars: how are you?

[criminaljustice]

[. . .













how is he supposed to answer that...]

Joker: fine

[foolmetwice]

[WITH THE TRUTH]

[. . . and actually, Mars has no reason to believe that Joker isn't fine right now and was only asking because it felt weird to text Joker about his relationship issues and not talk about Joker himself, but]

[that response]

Mars: ah
Mars: a single "fine" as a response does not, in fact, make me believe that you're fine

[criminaljustice]

[.... hhhhhhhhhhhhhhrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...]

Joker: before you came over the other night, there was a fight with a unitmate
Joker: said unitmate came back last night missing eyes and maimed
Joker: and i'm fucking pissed at him

[foolmetwice]

[ooooooh dear]

Mars: whaaaaat happened?

[criminaljustice]

Joker: he was ganged up on and killed in the game
Joker: after the game, he wanted to fight the person who killed him but he was riddled with bullet holes
Joker: I tried to get him to calm down and wait until he was healed because he was going to get himself killed
Joker: he wouldn't listen, so I knocked him out and got Lucifel to heal him
Joker: when he came too, he was pissed because I did that without his say and got in his way
Joker: so we fought
Joker: and then he stormed out
Joker: and I guess he went to fight the guy who killed him and got more than he bargained for
Joker: again
Joker: like it doesn't even fucking matter
Joker: don't even know why i bothered
Joker: he's just another adult who pretends he knows what's what and puts the blame on me for not getting his way, anyway

[foolmetwice]

[. . . sounds like something Mars would do if he were pushed far enough. . .]

Mars: whoa
Mars: sounds like a real asshole
Mars: he could've just been angry in the moment and was looking for a random target to yell at, and you just happened to be there
Mars: but it doesn't make him any less of an asshole
Mars: will he be okay?

[criminaljustice]

["why should I care?"

...

no

maybe not

that.]

Joker: he says he's fine

[foolmetwice]

Mars: him saying he's fine and actually being fine are two different things
Mars: but i know you know that
Mars: why are you pissed at him, anyway?
Mars: because you cared, and he threw it back in your face?
Mars: or because he's blaming you for his own questionable decisions?

[criminaljustice]

[.......... i dooooon't want toooo...]

Joker: more the first one i guess
Joker: plus
Joker: sounded like he killed Yasuragi
Joker: and that hurt Phoenix a lot
Joker: so i'm pissed about that, too

[foolmetwice]

[SORRY BUDDYYYYYY]

[he also doesn't fully understand the entanglement of relationships here, but. . . he doesn't think he needs to in order to get the gist of what happened]

Mars: yasuragi being one of the guys who jumped him during the game?
Mars: it's that. . . one of fox's people?

[he does, however, remember hearing that name from Fox]

[criminaljustice]

[.......... ah fuck.

that's true, too.]

Joker: great
Joker: super
Joker: and also murder outside of a game
Joker: sure to be great
Joker: Bad End continuing to have bad ends

[foolmetwice]

Mars: personally speaking, i don't think there's much of a difference between what occurs in a game or outside of one
Mars: and i gotta admit that i'd be pretty fucking furious if i got jumped in a game too
Mars: probably to the point of where i'd want to fight the guys responsible on even ground, win or loss
Mars: so i'd recommend keeping that in mind
Mars: otherwise? don't worry about being angry.
Mars: because you're entitled to feel that way

[criminaljustice]

Joker: yeah no offence but it's not you or Heart Soldier Senshi I'm worried about
Joker: we've gone a lot of days without there being murder outside of games
Joker: so you say there isn't much difference
Joker: but there is

[foolmetwice]

Mars: do you think the yasuragi guy's people are gonna come after your unit now because of it?

[criminaljustice]

Joker: well they won't go after Phoenix, probably

[foolmetwice]

Mars: diplomacy isn't really my strong point

[CONSIDERING HE FOUGHT DOODLEMAN EARLIER WITH THE FULL UNDERSTANDING THAT ONE OF THEM COULD DIE]

Mars: but if there's one person on your team that this yasuragi guy cares about
Mars: then shouldn't that be reason enough for him and his people to leave you guys alone?

[criminaljustice]

Joker: wow
Joker: congrats being the optimistic one

[foolmetwice]

[LOOK HE'S TRYING TO HELP]

[a frustrated noise, and Mars is typing. . . appears and disappears a lot]





Mars: i'm not great at giving advice
Mars: sorry it all sucks

[criminaljustice]

Joker: i wasn't really looking for advice
Joker: so you're fine

[foolmetwice]

[Mars is typing. . .]

[. . .]

[between this and the "not your Crow" comment yesterday, a memory that suddenly comes back to him rather vividly, Mars is. . . sudden unsure on how to proceed]

[. . .]

Mars: what can i do to help?
