you looking for reason in the madness? sense in the nonsensical?
who the fuck knows why i do what i do

( which is honestly close to the truth because he really doesn't know why he didn't just kill him or let him die, or why he had a panic attack on top of him before he snapped his shit together long enough to roll him on his side. he hates this question. he hates thinking about that night. )

he was too pitiful to kill

i'm looking for any sign that you're more than a threat that's eventually gonna need to be contained
because i've known people like that
nothing good left in them

you're telling me you're the monster after all?

i'm telling you everything tucker told you about me is true
even all his petty ass embellishments. bastard. asshole. psychopath. backstabbing cocksucker. the dude was annoying as fuck but he had an especially creative flair for language.

so don't think about it too hard

that's the opposite of what you said to me at first
isn't it?

he told you i was a liar too, didn't he?
that's what i do
i lie

except i do this annoying thing
where i judge people by their actions to see what they're really like

and it kinda seems like you were right the first time

( why does this keep happening to hiMMMmMmmMmm )

why? because i spared your man's life one time?

( okay, more than one time. )

i turn on a dime
doesn't mean shit
you seem like a nice guy to a vaguely unsettling degree, good head on your shoulders. that shit is a rarity on par with finding and befriending a talking, flying unicorn in a magical forest. a true altruist. kinda adorable if it wasn't a statistical death sentence 9 out of 10 times.
but it's like i told ephemera
there's nothing in me

[ It was more than one time, Felix. And he heard about what happened in the ring. And more important than all of that, Ephemera seems to think there's more to you, to the point he was trying to protect you from Drake's wrath, which. Okay, it's not mild but it's still big.

Drake reads the message twice before replying. ]

you're not wrong about the death sentence
but you're probably wrong about yourself

you can go on believing you're empty if it's easier, but i hope someday soon you're willing to face the truth

i looked the truth in the face a long fucking time ago

( already weighed, already found wanting. old news. )

stick to people who don't know who the fuck they are, drake
or are still figuring it out
you're about half a decade too late for me

enjoy your night
hugs and kisses buddy

uh no
because we've got a problem, then

you're going to keep hurting him

am i fucking really?
i don't want any part of him

well that's too fucking bad
because this place seems to love throwing you two together

okay sweetheart walk me through your thought process here
what the fuck would you like me to do about it? politely ask our supreme rulers to keep us in separate corners like naughty children? play dead the next time i get cornered with him and he's two seconds from losing his shit?
i told you our business ended on chorus and i meant it

don't call me sweetheart
if you don't fight back, he won't keep attacking
then again if you're willing to do that you're probably not the monster you're making yourself out to be

duly noted sugar

( absolutely no comment on the rest of that. )

felix

be a good boy and play dead, got it

( he has no idea what ephemera has or hasn't told him because 90 percent of the reason their fights end is because felix stops attacking him, but that's not something he wants to give voice to for multiple reasons. )

i'll see you around

inevitably
have a lovely evening, like i said
