I'll be very surprised if you manage that.

Not impossible, but really not necessary.

[gigadevilbreaker]

[That kind of statement just stirs up his competitive streak again. Huff.]

As if. You're just a jerk, not a degenerate.

[mind_blown]

Both. I'm both.

[gigadevilbreaker]

How exactly are you degenerate and I'm not?

[mind_blown]

Because you said the prude in you was dying.

[he reaches down and lightly flicks some of griffin's hair.]

You've got the guilt over sleeping with me. You gotta make sure I know this isn't normal for you.

Meanwhile, I've definitely fucked people here and felt not a god damned thing about it.

[gigadevilbreaker]

[Grumbles,] That prude is there 'cause I was raised in a town of hypocrites who'd look down at the less fortunate just to make themselves feel righteous. I'm not exactly happy they managed t'plant their shitty outlook in me.

I'd rather be degenerate than be like them.

[mind_blown]

You know there's a middle ground, right?

Just pointing that out.

[gigadevilbreaker]

You're not that shitty. That's all.

[mind_blown]

[EYE ROLLS.]

You should figure out what the hell you wanna be, not just try to out do whatever the hell it is I'm doing.

1/2

[gigadevilbreaker]

[Firmly,] I know what I am. Doesn't mean I can't learn t'change from people important to me.

[Let that sit for a beat.]

[gigadevilbreaker]

[Then hE JOLTS UP:]

Shit I have to text Shrike--!

[mind_blown]

... ok well, I’m gonna order pizza. Any kind you want?

[gigadevilbreaker]

Salami and olives.

[He tries to get up but-- winces and stumbles. God, his ass aches like nothing he's ever felt before. He has to get a Feint to fish around in his pants for his phone.]

Ngh...

[mind_blown]

[he hears that and pushes himself up to fish in his ruined jacket for something, before tossing him his knife.]

Here.

Sorry about that.

[gigadevilbreaker]

[Griffin would've pointed out that he could make his own, but. All the same, the gesture's appreciated. He catches the knife out of the air and twirls it, before holding it up to appraise the blade.

Then, he eyes the scratches all over Jay's torso.]

Feels like that should be my line.

[mind_blown]

[what part of “your swords are off limits” does griffin not understand!! That didn’t change because sex was over!!]

Eh, I’ve had worse.

[honestly, his entire body is a mess of scars, prominently burn scars, but there are very definitely faded battle scars underneath the new wounds from griffin. And even some newer scars griffin might recognize! Because he gave them to him.

He has definitely fought a lot in his life— and hasn’t always gotten off easy.

But now he needs to find his phone.

To order pizza.

Because he’s hungry.]

[gigadevilbreaker]

[WHY DOESN'T IT CHANGE WHEN SEX IS OVER]

[He eyes the scars for a moment longer. The burns are a surprise, but the rest less so. Comparatively, Griffin has less from his own storied history, (apart from the missing arm,) and all his freshest are from Games.]

...Thanks.

[Then he jabs himself in the gut with the dagger in one swift motion, minimizing splatter. He pulls it out, and gets up to wipe the blood off on his already ruined shirt.]

[mind_blown]

[pizza ordered. And then he offers a thumbs up to Griffin.]

No problem. Now text your girlfriend, I’m going to shower and spare myself.

[gigadevilbreaker]

Mn.

[The Feint throws him the phone, and Griffin starts texting with-- actually an anxious expression on his face. He knows he got carried away, and all this was... it didn't feel like a mistake, not in his blood?

But it paled in importance to Shrike.

She was understanding, and... maybe this would stretch the limits of that. All he could do was be honest with her. Otherwise, that really would be degeneracy.]

[mind_blown]

[that's fine, it gives Jay a chance to get cleaned up, dressed, and to grab that bad end outfit for Griffin that he asked for.

it's a good 30 minutes later that he comes back, tossing the new clothes onto the lower platform couch, because he knows his bed isn't safe.]

Gotcha some clothes, and shower's open now.

[gigadevilbreaker]

[Sorry, Griffin's still having an emotional meltdown over how much he loves his girlfriend. His eyes are glistening and he's rereading her texts to him over and over, utterly moved each time.

When Jay comes over he just buries his head in his arms and. Has to take deep breaths.]

...

[mind_blown]

...

I'll grab the pizza, too, then.

[gigadevilbreaker]

[Nods mutely.]





[When Jay leaves, he'll get up, wipe his nose, then grab the clean set of clothes and head to the shower.]

[mind_blown]

[by the time he gets back, there is definitely pizza. And jay has already eaten two slices.

Rude boy.]

[gigadevilbreaker]

[Griffin comes out clean and changed - the stab healed any hint of Jay's teeth and rough kisses, so the only souvenir of their 'fight' was his long hair.

Which was sopping wet, despite his best efforts at wringing it dry. Stupid, fucking hair. He's given up trying to braid it right now. Sigh.]

You save any for me?
