[Well... It'd been a long day, and he'd been trying to deal with the fallout of a fight with some nightmares earlier. Specifically... The fact that his aim leaves a lot to be desired. Of course a shot just happened to bounce a few times before he managed to hit something. The problem? The hit was actually a bullet clipping his Dream Eater. He'd been trying to make up for it since they finished dealing with the nightmares in question, carrying her back to where they'd been staying after gathering the prizes up from the fight. And now he's got his comm up, recording himself petting an agitated pricklemane with an injured tail.]

Anyone got some suggestions on how to make up to a dream eater for... I guess you could call it friendly fire.

I'm just glad this isn't the real Allison. Otherwise, I'd never hear the end of this.

...

I didn't plan on it this time, North. I was aiming at a Nightmare. The shot ricocheted.

[brodakota]

But you're planning on it in the future?

[You really should watch what you say, Church. North does not condone the mistreatment of spirits.]

[fearmylaserface]

Planning on preparing in case I do it by accident again, North.

[Okay, he's actually offended.] I'm not a monster, no matter who the asshole I was based on was.

[brodakota]

[And North's tone is sincere when he says this.]

I didn't mean to imply that, Church. I'm sorry.

It's not that often I go too far with a joke.

[fearmylaserface]

[Agitated. Maybe naming the dream eater for her wasn't his best plan.] It wasn't funny. I didn't want to hurt Allison.

[brodakota]

We know, Church. I know you'd never want to hurt her.

[Theta is still kind of agitated, but he figures he ought to speak up. Someone has to look after North after all.]

[fearmylaserface]

[Oh. Right. Theta.] She's too important.

But I'm overreacting. And if I don't shut up... Wash is going to be pissed. Sorry you two.

[brodakota]

I'm the one who's sorry Church. I won't make another joke like that.

[And Theta nods in agreement.]

[fearmylaserface]

Appreciate it, North.

[brodakota]

You know, if you're having trouble fighting, I can always try and help out.

[fearmylaserface]

York and Delta offered me training... I was stubborn about the offer.

I'm taking it now. I don't want to have to lean on someone else for protection.

[brodakota]

Alright. Well don't hesitate to ask if you need help.

[fearmylaserface]

Appreciate it, North.

[brodakota]

Anytime, Church.

Screened to Epsilon

[unrecovered]

[Unbelievable. Unbefuckinglievable.]

Watch it, Epsilon.

Screened to Wash

[fearmylaserface]

He accused me of being as bad as the Director.

Screened to- okay we both know this whole thread is going to be screened, let's just go with that

[unrecovered]

It's a fucking joke, and it's North! You really think he'd accuse anyone of that, let alone you? And you did make it sound like you were planning on a next time!

Just- [He runs a hand through his hair, agitated, angry, because angry is better than endlessly worried] quit fucking things up!

[fearmylaserface]

It wasn't funny, Wash. I was actually upset it happened at all. It shouldn't have happened. And I didn't mean it like that.

I'm not fucking anything up.
