the last time anybody tried to sneak up on him while he was sleeping, Hiro almost got his nose broken.

What do you think?

[rubikscomplex]

lame
still, whatever
if you actually grow a pair and manage to prank him or helmet head, lemme know
you shall be richly rewarded, young padawan

[rattlingthestars]

Who says I haven't already?

And what do you have that I want?

[rubikscomplex]

the affirmation of a father figure you so desperately want

[rattlingthestars]

Got that. Wasn't all it's cracked up to be. Try again.

Or, you know, don't. I think we're done.

[rubikscomplex]

uh huh
nighty night, jim
daddy loves you probably
or he forgot you exist

[rattlingthestars]

Sure, probably.

But at least I'm not alone in that, right? Who taught you to set the bar so low, House? Had to be somebody you couldn't win with. Pretty early on, too.

[That hits harder than House expected and he bristles at his tablet, then just disconnects.

Congrats, Jim. You got the last word.]
