Day 10ish

[shiro2hero]

(It's high time I did this.)

[Oh no, someone is gearing up for one of Those Speeches. Because one of their new arrivals ticked off a box in his head, and Sam's asking for training helped.]

[And he's tired of walking on eggshells.]

(I don't know how many of you were there when I found out what my Symbiote does. I sort of wish I hadn't. But. I can't change that.)

[Yeah apparently it made him the Space Hulk. And it took at least two people to keep him from ripping someone's face off.]

(What I can do is control it. I just need to know where to start.)

(So I'm taking a lead from Sam Wilson. Asking if anyone is willing to help. I... don't think I can promise no one will get hurt, but if we're careful, maybe it'll just be me.)

[And he can live with that.]

Comments

( It's just... weird. )

[shiro2hero]

(No argument here.)

(... I don't think I can ask him to help, after this. Would you be willing to step in, instead?)

[greentech]

( ...as a target? )

[shiro2hero]

(No!)

[It's probably the most alarmed he's sounded so far. Including the moment he'd yelled at her they hadn't told Aoba yet.]

(No way. As... a safety precaution.)

[greentech]

( Oh, uh, yeah. Sure! Anything you need. )

[shiro2hero]

(You helped before. I know you weren't there, but, indirectly, you did.)

(Probably means you can again.)

[greentech]

( If I can, I will. I'm going to let you just get yourself into danger without giving you a way out! )

[shiro2hero]

(You can. I know you can.)

[And if he's wrong, well. There's the more drastic option.]

[greentech]

( I'm not going to let you down, Shiro. )

[shiro2hero]

(I never doubted you would. Ever.)
