The least? I'm not that reckless, am I?

Okay. It's very cute.

[antelligent]

Aw, shucks. *You're* cute.

Honesty is such a breath of fresh air.

That being said, do you want me to be honest about the recklessness?

[jurisdevil]

I doubt you'll tell me anything I haven't already heard.

But go ahead. Let it all out.

[antelligent]

Okay.

( there's a moment's pause as scott tries to thumb in a reply that doesn't sound over-protective or like he's out of bounds, or anything. that, and tony wilson is a shitty flier. honestly, why does scott even bother?

but. )

It's enough that I worry sometimes.

[jurisdevil]

[Well, that certainly isn't the lecture he was expecting to hear. Makes it impossible for Matt to get defensive. Damn it.]

I always make it back. You don't need to worry.

[antelligent]

Yeah I know you do. I also know you can take care of yourself which is why I said 'sometimes' and not all the time. I mean you're way better than me at fighting for Christ's sake!

But I guess it's one of those weird, inescapable superhero things...? And you're always right in the fray when we fight so.

Awww man. I didn't wanna get soft today.

[jurisdevil]

I understand, Scott. I do.

[Matt certainly worries as well, both for his non-crime fighting friends and those with special powers or fighting abilities. Everyone can be vulnerable, even those who know how to protect themselves.]

I appreciate that you care. More than you probably realize.

[antelligent]

Definitely more than I realise, because I've kind of accepted the fact that I'm an emotional disappointment.

At least I'm mostly okay with you.

( scott stares blankly at what he just sent. then he cringes. )

Anyway.

Are any of your windows open? Is the one we broke last sparring match still broken? I forgot to check.
