He got rid of Jack.

[jumpthegun]

What... how? Mr. Stark?

fudges because I'm not too far into the Rhys thread myself

[devoutish]

There's information on the tablet, if you take a look.

[jumpthegun]

[John sighs.]

Well, I'm glad he's all right, at least. You're none the worse for wear with your own run-ins with trouble, still?

[devoutish]

I'll be all right. Both of us will, eh?

[jumpthegun]

Mm... We'll always be all right, yeah.

[Even when he's very much not, John prefers to put up that front.]

Only way we're going to get out of here. Where are you heading next?

[devoutish]

I think I'll head off on my own for a bit.

[jumpthegun]

[And go...? John knows that pressing the issue is inviting a rebuke from the other man.]

Be careful downtown. Zell sent me a map with the locations of the traps they found down there. I... I dunno how to call it up and send it right now, but you can contact him for it. We were worried about them maybe resetting.

[devoutish]

He should make that public to all of us.

[jumpthegun]

Said he's worried about the Joker getting hold of it and making use of it somehow.

[devoutish]

Make it more public than it is at the moment, at least.

[jumpthegun]

[John doesn't disagree. He'd wanted Zell to make it entirely public before.]

You'll get no argument from me, mate. Maybe a message just filtered from the Joker. I told him to at least give the map to England, America, and Ginger, since they were downtown. Might be one of them's got it, too.

[devoutish]

I don't much like treating the Joker as a Bogeyman, myself.

[jumpthegun]

Ms. Romanov's told me to stop antagonizing him...

[It's very difficult not to want to do, though. Even now. Especially now, seeing what he did to Fiona. What John imagines he did to Fiona.]

[devoutish]

Have you been?

[jumpthegun]

He talks to me. I don't make it a secret I'm not afraid of him and don't find him funny. I'm not going to play nice for that man.

whoops I thought I got to this, sorry!

[devoutish]

Do you think I'm asking you to?

No worries!

[jumpthegun]

No, but she is.

[devoutish]

[Okay, Alfie doesn't actually want to defend Natasha, but...]

Find your middle ground between making things worse and playing nice.

Antagonizing him is not going to hurt him.

[jumpthegun]

[John clucks his tongue softly. Alfie, at least, he's more willing to listen to.]

I'm not going to pretend I'm afraid of him, but I'll leave off insulting his humor.

[That's a very reasonable compromise as far as John's concerned.]

[devoutish]

You should ignore him entirely, as often as you can.

[jumpthegun]

I don't go looking to talk to him.

[He's been good. Mostly.]

[devoutish]

Ignore him when he comes looking, then. Attention is what he wants. Don't give it to him.

[jumpthegun]

You talk to him.

[You went looking for him, Alfie. How is that not giving him the attention he wants?]

[devoutish]

Not often. I don't get drawn into it.
