If anyone has powers [he says this very carefully with no particular intonation] I want to see them in person. Use them near me. On me. I don't care.

Also I've got this for recording. [he waves a digital recorder that looks fairly high quality for Walmart] If someone could help me figure it out it would be great.

If we want to get to the bottom of this we need as much evidence as we can. As many records. Details. So on.

If we're serious about finding out what's happening, let's get organized.

Bless your heart. But that'll be a hard pass.

Good luck with your recorder.

[scotch_egg]

Suit yourself.

Hope your little rebellion from helping others does something for you.

[darkforcerising]

LOL, I help everyone else. Just don't help people who are rude to me.

[scotch_egg]

Okay. Congratulations, you're a good person.

[darkforcerising]

Congratulations! You're a rude person.

[scotch_egg]

We're done here then. [if he is on some entitled kid's sensitive nerves? so be it]

[temptationaccomplished]

First of all, what in the world am I being volunteered for and secondly, why are you antagonizing Anakin? What prompted this?

[darkforcerising]

I think this started because I joked that Americans suck.

[temptationaccomplished]

[A SIGH. At both of you] I promise you, he's honestly ...much nicer when you get to know him.

[scotch_egg]

[a snort] You're an exception.

[temptationaccomplished]

[Looks so very pleased with a nose-wrinkling smile and a wiggle.]

[Catches himself at it, frowns.] Well, as much as I like being an exception, I'd like it if you don't want to make friends, you could try to at least not make enemies.

[scotch_egg]

I haven't got the time to make that much effort.

[darkforcerising]

Fun fact: I get to know people who want to know me and who don't make me work for their kindness. A person who does is an asshole and life is just too short to consciously chose to subject myself to mean people.

[scotch_egg]

Ohh noo god forbid any conflict enter your precious little life. I hope you're always shielded from the 'mean people'.

[darkforcerising]

I have a prosthetic arm, you asshole! You think I go through life without running into enough dicks just anxious to tell me or show me what a disgusting freak I am?

You got me. My life is so good. So no reason to ruin it.

[temptationaccomplished]

Alright, that's...that's fair.

[scotch_egg]

Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't think he was so sensitive. Apparently he needs to be coddled with a pat on the head and told he's a very good boy. God forbid someone is just the least bit short with him. I might have to pay reparations. [try not to drown in the sarcasm]

But it doesn't matter. You're fine. He doesn't want to do it anyway.

[temptationaccomplished]

[Rolls his eyes and heaves another sigh] Dear god.

Well, if you both can get your heads out of your arses enough to work together, I'll make myself available for...whatever it is you've volunteered me for.

Anakin/Mr. Fell

[darkforcerising]

I've got my head up my ass because I won't subject myself to someone's cruelty?

Wow.

(I take it from half these threads that we can now private lock?I really missed a memo XD)

[temptationaccomplished]

No, I-- [Goodness, how did one post go so wrong in so many ways] That wasn't what I meant.

(Sorry! - tho, this isn't BB's thing, her's is to make these private from the Bureau)

[darkforcerising]

Okay. What did you mean?

[temptationaccomplished]

On second thought... You have to promise me that you aren't going to let them test powers on you.

[scotch_egg]

It's fine. I don't want him. If he's going to be so bloody immature I'm not interested. I've met thicker skinned eighth graders.

And of course I'll let them use it on me if it even works. It's fine. Don't worry about it.

[temptationaccomplished]

Alec. No, I-- I want to be there. I'll come regardless. I just wish you'd reconsider. There's no telling what a power might do if it DOES work. Why go in risking yourself to chance without taking proper precautions?

[scotch_egg]

What precautions am I even going to take? Don't think they sell magic proof bullet vests on ebay.
