[network] @dickcheese, Day 168, audio [open]

[ It takes the video of the bomb hitting to really force Rhys to realize how up his own butt he's been. And it's only partially justified. Ish. Maybe.

An update, then, on how the Situation has been resolved is in order, now that he's been fed, watered, and had time to collect his thought. ]

Jack's gone.

...gone out of my head, anyway.

Just, u-uh. Thought everyone should know.

Oh! The lady with the cool hat, right?

[ They only talked a couple of times. ]

It could still get resolved. Al and Levi came back after a really long time, right?

I know she's from your world. Yeah? I know you've got the worst of it, here. But the Joker is not a normal person and you cannot deal with him in the normal way.

[spoileralert]

I'm going to go with worse, on the logic that I don't give a crap what Jack feels or thinks and him invisibly looming over you is creepy as all get out.

[headjacked]

There isn't gonna be any looming, that much I can... almost guarantee.

[ He deflates. ]

'Worst', no. She wh... we weren't even friends, at the end.

[headjacked]

By 'resolved' I mean the rat bastard who killed her is never gonna get any kind of comeuppance.

[devoutish]

You still cared, didn't you? You saw her as a friend?

[private]

[headjacked]

I did. Always will, b-but I'm pretty sure the feeling has to be mutual for the F-Word to apply.

[devoutish]

What do you want, then? Do you want to say I have it worse?

[spoileralert]

Almost. I guess that's better than it was.

[swatsflies]

Maaan, that sucks. Maybe you'll get your chance another time.

[ He totally endorses getting even with people. ] Is it because of the company he keeps? [ With that suspicious dude from Steph's world? ]
