pale_blue_arrowThis is Brendan Frye. If it's urgent, you might have a better chance o' tracking me down on foot. If I'm not answering, chances are I've gotten in over my head with something, not that I'm refusin' to give you the time of day. So leave me some words and I'll get back to you as soon as I don't have a fire to put out.

Great, because I've only got an excess of Jiffy Pop, and I've been told I need to expand my snack tastes a little more.

oh good, i have an excuse to introduce you to a whole new world of snacks. although i've never had jiffy pop so this cuts both ways.

Just wanted ta let ya know I'm gonna be movin' out soon. I got a place that's a bit off the beaten track and bigger so I can let my team out a bit more. 'Specially Muk.
no subject
Date: 2017-09-18 05:36 pm (UTC)I don't know when I can see you though...they're holding me until I can get out in front of a judge.
I'm sorry. Things got out of hand like I said. I had to make decisions really fast. But it meant killing someone in the end. So I'm accountable for that.
I do t know what it'll mean for the long run.
I asked Archie to get Scout. If you can help look after him...

Date: 2017-09-18 06:37 pm (UTC)yeah, sure. scout'll love the attention. anything else you need?

Date: 2017-09-18 06:53 pm (UTC)The meeting I mentioned I was going to? Every one of us used to be part of a group called Archangel. Back then we were trying to provide extra coverage and muscle on the streets, since crime was so high. I didn't get to see it through to its ending, but it ended real bad.
I guess some people were still burnt up about it...dozen or so thugs and a handful of metahumans rushed in and raised hell. Lots of fighting. They even set up external nullifiers around the building...none of my friends could use their powers.
Jacob almost died. I managed to kill the man before he could kill us. The rest began to break down when backup and police showed up. Maybe around 2am? It was late.
I've been in the station since then, getting processed and waiting.

Date: 2017-09-19 05:02 am (UTC)that's a disaster for the ages. didn't realize you of all people could end up having a dark past, but i guess you weren't actually present for the dark part of it before. i hate to say this because i know you probably don't wanna hear it, but you did the right thing, sunset. you really didn't have any other options, either.
sit tight. when they let you have visitors i'm going over to be that obnoxiously cliche boyfriend telling you it's all gonna work out.

It's butter-flavored popcorn, and also I actually can't believe it's not as popular as it was back home. You're not the first person to tell me you've never had it, in fact.
