[ There's probably something funny about how quickly he slips back into practicals in the middle of dealing with life (for whatever it's worth) altering information. Plenty of practice, he supposes.

But she's still not trying to, and he still appreciates it. ]
Triangulation. It's a classic.
I did piss her off. On purpose, this time. So if anything goes off on that front, that's why.
I'm still holding up my side of the agreement. I can't say if she will, but I got the impression she knows she needs you enough to not deliberately fuck you over while she fucks me over. But who fucking knows.
[ He has his own opinions about Tattletale's sense of 'when the situation calls for it', but those are the breaks. Amy has to work with Tattletale regardless of how trustworthy she is, and it's easier if you convince yourself that the snake you're handling follows a set of rules you can learn. ]

There are a lot of heroes around. Some of them live up to every ideal the Protectorate pretended to value.
God, she sucks.]
