[powersouls]

I know. I know it's not, it's just—

[Her voice breaks, which is probably good, considering she was about to say that it isn't fair, and she thinks that sounds childish.]

[bywolves]

Nobody's fault. [ Royce repeats more firmly, echoing Alfie. He shifts on the couch, looking vaguely frustrated. He kind of looks at the screen like - help, what does he say, at Alfie. ]

[devoutish]

Tifa, are you gonna be all right tonight?

[powersouls]

[Tifa swallows, an attempt to get herself together before she responds.]

I... I'll be fine.

[Or she'll just pretend she is. Whatever!]

[bywolves]

I'll make sure she is. [ Royce says idly. All sorts of casual. ]

[devoutish]

Yeah. I'm sure he'll sit with you a bit.

[See, Royce, he's helping you.]

[powersouls]

[Royce might be acting casual, but it's still super unexpected, and it catches Tifa off guard for a second.]

Oh. Okay.

[There's obvious relief in her voice. Royce did something right!]

Where are you? Not far, right?

[devoutish]

[OOC: continued from here.]

I'm something of a threat. Low-level or significant, depending on who you're asking.

[redrooms]

And if I'm asking?

[devoutish]

No, it's my turn now, yeah?

What are some of your titles? Name, oh - two of 'em.

I'M SORRY I missed this

[devoutish]

A few houses away, I think. Not far at all.

[redrooms]

The Black Widow. An Avenger.

[She's used to everyone at home knowing who she is, anyway.]

Your turn. Are you a petty criminal or something more impressive?

[devoutish]

Crime boss, racketeer. Two titles from me, to you.

[redrooms]

And? Are you planning on stirring up trouble here?

[devoutish]

I don't stir up trouble for the fun of it.

[redrooms]

That's a good choice.

[She's a little more concerned with dealing with the problem of the town itself than tailing random criminals, but she'll keep an eye on him.]

[devoutish]

It is, isn't it?

[And he'll definitely be keeping an eye on her.]

Picking fights for no reason, now, that's just bad for business.

[It sure doesn't stop him from needling when he's reasonably sure he can keep the upper hand, though.]

[redrooms]

It's also an easy way to get yourself killed. You strike me as more intelligent than that.

s'all good!!

[bywolves]

We'll meet you. [ Royce says, quieter. ] Shouldn't take too much effort to coordinate.

[devoutish]

Yeah.

I'll take risks, right.

[Sometimes big risks, even.]

But not for no fucking reason.

[redrooms]

If you hurt anyone here who's innocent, I won't take well to it.

[Fair warning, right? There's also the completely true implication that if he screws with someone not so innocent, she's not going to get worked up.]

[devoutish]

Yeah. See you soon.

[devoutish]

Yeah. But we may not have the same definition of innocence.

[redrooms]

Maybe not. I suppose we'll see.

[devoutish]

Will you be the law enforcement here, then?

[Gently teasing.]
