So. Anyone else get "pranked" by a history buff friend of theirs? That's how one of my guardians described it when I showed him.

Isn't that what we all think? And then one day you get a carton of milk thrown at the back of your head at lunchtime because someone thinks you looked at them weird.

Or get dye in your shampoo in the locker-room.

Here's hoping if I have enemies now they stick to that level of sophmoric.

Would be nice if everyone kept their beefs on the medium side, yeah.

Welp. I have a feeling even if we don't do anything at this point, we'll still get blamed for whatever happens. Heavens only knows what that could be, too, given our track record so far.

[neverjedi]

That we'll be 'blamed' is an interesting though. I suppose if the Bureau knows how little they're trusted - but so far most of the issues seem to come from them.

I was visited recently by that Mr Martin guy. He made it pretty clear that he didn't care for me, or trust me, but he wanted to know about anti-Bureau activity. I pretty much told him I didn't know anything, which is true but he still gave the impression he blamed me somewhat for it. Freaked me out, too.

[neverjedi]

I don't blame you. I don't like any of this, and I especially don't like the idea of him being... scary toward people.

[hardtoignore]

I already don't like most adults by default. He's not making the case any better with his attitude.

[neverjedi]

No and that he's targeting a teenager is not making him look anything but worse.

[hardtoignore]

He talked to a few people, from what I understand. I don't know if he's being honest about just caring about the Bureau or if he's taking his own feelings out on everyone in their name.

[neverjedi]

I don't have the first idea.
I haven't heard from him about this, but if he's trying to intimidate and frighten teenagers then he's being inappropriate regardless.

[hardtoignore]

I doubt even if you confronted him about it he would feel even a shred of guilt. Nothing he said was particularly threatening, but it certainly FELT that way.

[neverjedi]

I've known people like that before. They're very careful to make sure nothing they say if quoted sounds like an insult or threat, while making sure it feels that way.

I'm sorry. You didn't deserve that.
