I didn't say I wanted to steal things from a teenager!

[rubikscomplex]

you said you wanna steal from anyone who loses their crap in your "territory"
which may include teenagers or little kids

[zunesareawesome]

What I said and what I mean are two totally different things.

[rubikscomplex]

maybe you should learn to say what you mean
how are we supposed to be in your head?
you sure seem like a guy who'd steal lollipops from little kids
you're a murdering pirate after all

[zunesareawesome]

Look, I'm not gonna steal lollipops from little kids! For one thing, where are the lollipops from? How many can you get at once? At the very least I'd trade an item of equal value for it. Or a song.

Murdering pirates can be nice to people too!

Just not to you. Some of their favorite hobbies include killin' doctors named House.

[His guilt about it has reached exceedingly low levels after how he's treated Blue. Not that he wanted to do it again, but beat him to an unrecognizable pulp? Sure!]

[rubikscomplex]

how much crap have you stolen from other people?
how do you know those people weren't gonna give it to their kids?
or sell it to make money to give things to their kids?

basically
you're a mean one, mr. grinch

[zunesareawesome]

[STOP MAKING HIM THINK OF THINGS--]

That's not--look I--it's not like I could have known--

--I'M NOT THE GRINCH! If anyone's a Grinch it's YOU!

[rubikscomplex]

my job is saving lives
yours is ending them and stealing their shit
sitting pretty comfy over here, pal
and if you wanna play the "i saved the universe" card, save it
you sound like a broken record
i dedicated my life to this
you are, once again, a tourist

[zunesareawesome]

Still saved a bazillion more people than you, dude. Upset a tourist is more successful than you?

[Oh, that pisses him off to no end. Just everything he said...okay, yeah. He had to kill Ronan and he had to kill Ego--together with his friends. Saving the galaxy sometimes required killin'. He's completely okay with it, and yet the way House said it made him feel a twinge of misplaced guilt. As if murdering people was just part of the job. Which it sometimes, was, but justified, and--

And the dig about being a tourist...]

[rubikscomplex]

right
so you saved all the rapists, murderers, abusers, and child human-traffickers of the universe
nice going, buddy!

[Winding Peter up when he doesn't particularly care about the subject really is too easy.]

[zunesareawesome]

See, that's who we go after in the off-season! It's a full-time job, man!

[rubikscomplex]

yuh huh
how many really bad dudes have you put away because they were bad
and not just standing in your way to something shiny

[zunesareawesome]

We got rid of Ronan because he was trying to destroy Xandar and who knows how many other planets! And we didn't get any profit because of that shiny!

I mean, monetary profit. Nova Corps fixed up my ship and expunged all our records--

[rubikscomplex]

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

a clean record sure sounds shiny

[zunesareawesome]

I didn't do it for that, man!

[rubikscomplex]

sure
i get you
;)
