You're still in the Baumine Mines. Get your asses moving before rats of unusual size go looking for a meal. It's dark and scary and the structures are old and dangerous. Don't die.

[Mission: Make it out of the mine]

[ what's up with your boyfriend he's in a really bad mood and he looks like he went five rounds with a bear. ]

[ is this some domestic abuse shit. ]

[sawedoff]

[don't worry about jimmy he's like an infant all he does is eat pee and cry a lot and when he gets hurt everyone looks at you like its your fault]

Where the hell have you been?

[we're all waiting on your absent dad ass]

[fairyvagina]

[skirts on by]

[sheepishly]

[thisbites]

Not drowning anybody.

[ i'm not going to cry about it she probably helped them kill ruby. ]

You?

[ how'd the vacay with the ball-buster in the bustier work out for you. ]

[sawedoff]

[watches sookie skitter by]

...Just stopped some assassins from being able to track us down and give us all Columbian neckties in our sleep.

No big deal.

[it's not not drowning anybody or anything]

[thisbites]

You're right about that much.

[ as in, no one's ever going to say thank you. ]

Map went through the forest. Nobody's really got any experience navigating mineshafts, so it's pick a tunnel, any tunnel.

[sawedoff]

[he's used to it by now.]

Well then pick a tunnel, Scooby.

[and don't make me regret giving you the map of all people
using the term people loosely]

[thisbites]

[ smacks his chest with the back of one hand. knuckles of watch it, asshole. ]

No dog jokes. Not from Hunters.

[ shoulders in front of him and tries to scent which tunnel the clean air is coming from. ]

[sawedoff]

[looks down at his chest with the most affronted eyebrows. fucking jock.]

Why, cus you're neutered? Are we supposed to play nice?

[he knows he's p much #1 on his chewtoy list for what he did to mitchell so let's not try to pretend we can still have this little hunter-monster truce]

[thisbites]

Because I haven't taken any pot-shots at you, because the last thing these self-absorbed adult babies need is the two volunteer camp counselors going deathmatch on each other when they couldn't drop the ninth grade name-calling.

[ shoves him a little. almost exactly even with him in terms of height. annoying. ]

I'm not going to banter with you about what you did, or how pissed off I am. One day soon, we're going to deal with what you did, in the only way we can, but until then I'm not going to let you disrespect me.

[sawedoff]

[okay don't need to monologue about it]

[his hand automatically goes to find his gun when derek starts getting shovey because he doesn't deal well with monsters getting confrontational, but despite his kneejerk reaction he does actually listen.]

[meets him with a long, considering look before nodding, making a tsk noise when he sucks on his teeth because he's not happy about it but he's still willing to work with him]

Okay. Fine, cowboy, we'll duel at dawn. But keep your friggin hands to yourself until then.

[thisbites]

[ just looks at him for a long, i cannot fucking believe you moment, then shakes his head and steps back a pace with his hands out. ]

[ no dog jokes. that's it. that's all he asked. ]

Not a problem. I know how to follow the rules. [ in that tone that's clearly like And You Don't. what code. ]

[ and next one of them you sacrifice, he's going to make a trophy out of your bones. that's in the rules now. ]

[sawedoff]

[try it kujo]

[it doesnt count if its in brackets. slowly relaxes off the grip of the gun and moves hands to pockets in the most non-threatening way he can manage]

Yeah, I'm a maverick. Rebel without a cause. Look, if you're gonna police these people you're gonna be responsible for their safety so how about you stop trying to piss all over the mailb-

[wow this is harder than he thought]

--How about you actually try to work with the guy that's been doing it for the last month and a half?

[thisbites]

[ ]

[ i mean. ]

[thisbites]

Really? Work with you because you were so responsible for Mitchell's safety? Or like you were responsible for Owen's safety? [ teeth. ]

Or Ruby's?

[sawedoff]

Yeah.

[asshole. but he's not gonna refute that he fucked it up.]

You wanna throw everything I've screwed up in my face some more or do you wanna hear what I know about our biker Agent Smith shadows?

[thisbites]

[ honestly i'd really like you to suffer some more, and openly, under the crushing guilt. ]

The ones who started following us because of crap you and your sidekick started? Go on.

[sawedoff]

[rolls eyes and looks off to the side with a terse jaw twitch]

You need to make sure you're taking them on the roads less traveled. We ditched Lady Davey Jones' buddies but it's only gonna slow them down and piss them off. Play it safe, don't draw attention to ourselves until we can nail down a way to end the thing.

[that is my recommendation sir.]

[thisbites]

[ hiding is a thing that i do a lot yeah. ]

...You saying maybe we should go off-map for a while?

[sawedoff]

Unless you wanna go exactly where they'd expect us to be.

[shitty stare. glad you could keep up with the basic gist there]

[thisbites]

[ lifts his top lip. it's not entirely a sneer but it's close. ]

They can't expect us to be anywhere, not based on the map, unless they know something about it that we don't. [ like, where it leads. ]

If we're changing the sheet music, we're going to need something to cross-reference.

[sawedoff]

[yeah well he didn't want to throw it out there but he's starting to suspect they might, or at least there's someone else out there who does, cus it's awfully coincidental they keep running into outsiders right in the middle of the path of the map

but derek doesn't need to hear about his paranoid concerns]

Okay, we'll make a pit stop to pick up supplies. We don't need the whole circus storming the castle though.

[counter productive to laying low]

Either you or me's gonna stay behind with the kiddies while the other gets the milk run.

[thisbites]

They might get noisy if I wander off. [ map-bitch. ]

But if I don't mention you being gone, they probably won't even notice. [ isn't it weird how that seems to happen? ]

[sawedoff]

[yeah he feels the love around here]

Fine, I'll run the friggin errand, but if you run off without me I'm gonna make it my personal mission to mount you on my wall.

[playing along with the power tripping 20 something is gonna get on his nerves]

[thisbites]

[ no i mean like any time anyone who isn't the map-bitch disappears no one notices. ]


...Why would I ditch you when you're getting something we all need? [ to.dis.tract.her. ]
