It's part of it, Diego. If it was a killer goose, I was about to be impressed and proud of your commitment to public safety and protecting people from the natural hazards of this world.

Otherwise: this is the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

Did you catch it?

[deadlycurves]

I’ll be sure to ask next time.

It started to take off so I just kinda trajectory-threw the bird back over to the guy?

Weirdest fucking morning of my entire life, I swear to god.

[obediences]

I was about to revoke your Team Zero card if you'd told me you'd been bested by a literal, non-superpowered, non-killer goose.

[deadlycurves]

You don’t get to revoke anything in Team Zero.

[obediences]

What, and you can?

[deadlycurves]

No, that was the general you, not you-you.

[obediences]

We're all still in the team no matter how much of a fuckup we are. Something like that?

[deadlycurves]

Yeah. Something like that. [Because, really? Team Zero was just another way to call each other family, but "family" never quite fit for them, did it? So this. It would work. It was working. It meant more, somehow.]

[obediences]

So. Did you at least get thanked by this other person for your goose Samaritan act?


[ Luther is very, very proud of his pun. ]

[deadlycurves]

Oh, God, you're an idiot.

[AKA: He hates that he almost laughed at that pun. Goddammit, Luther.]

But... yeah.
He was grateful about it.

[obediences]

New friend?

[ It's an earnest question, actually, and not as teasing as when Luther had ribbed him about Derek. They've both lost enough burgeoning friends here. They could do with more. ]

[deadlycurves]

Eh...I dunno. Maybe?

[He really isn't sure. It wasn't a bad meeting, exactly? He's just not sure...if it'll be a cause for more, yet, either.]

I miss Derek.
I didn't even know to miss him, before, but now I'm here and I do and it sucks.

[This is why he stayed alone all the time, back home. It was easier than dealing with losing people, in whatever way he might do so.]

[obediences]

Yeah. I get you.

I miss Shaun.


[ He didn't want to admit it, but Diego did it first, so... ]

[deadlycurves]

Wanna grab a beer?

[Feelings suck. Booze instead?]

[obediences]

Sure.

[ It's not Yes, please, although that's what Luther wishes he could say. ]

There's a local bar I go to sometimes.

[deadlycurves]

Perfect.
