Hey, who's been to Mt. Mortar?

Any advice for a coupe of guys headed that way to catch some Pokemon?

[After looking into it, it looks like that's their best bet. And it's not even really far away. But he's got no idea what they're headed into, and considering he's taking a kid with him, he figures he ought to ask about his current selected destination.]

And, uh, any advice on catching Pokemon in general. I never done it before.

Yeah. They have.

Right.

[Jimmy's response is a lot cooler than usual. He doesn't know the whole story, but he knows Wrath doesn't like this guy and he doesn't think he needs to be Einstein to figure out why.]

[Envy hasn't even talked with Jimmy that many times, but he still realizes that it's a weirdly distant response. He didn't think he'd been that sarcastic.]

Something wrong?

With me? Nope.

Just getting ready to take my little buddy on a vacation.

...okay?

[SOMETHING IS WEIRD HERE??]

So there's a problem with them?

I sure as hell don't think there is.

Pretty sure you don't give a shit anyway, so...

[???]

[Okay now Envy's getting annoyed himself.]

So are you planning on telling me what the hell you're talking about, or are we going to keep playing passive aggressive guessing games?

I was trying to shut the whole conversation down.

Look, I don't really know you. I don't know your deal, I don't care. I got my priorities, and I'm pretty serious about'em. And one of'em's Wrath.

So...

[Oh. Well now that all makes sense then.]

Yeah? And how much do you actually know about him? Probably not the half of it.

I'm not saying I didn't fuck up, or that you shouldn't care. Hell, I'm glad you do. But if you care about him then you're going to want to know a few things.

I know nobody's ever done right by that kid in his life. He's desperate to be loved.

That's all I gotta know.

[That actually gets a very small wince out of Envy. He already knew, really, and he's already been feeling more and more guilty over Wrath, but hearing it just said like that...]

You're not wrong.

[He grits his teeth.]

Fine then, suit yourself if you don't want to know. But keep it in mind, shit's more complicated than you probably think. Look out for him.

[Envy doesn't know enough about Jimmy to really TRUST him to, but he does seem to care. Which is better than nothing. Then he scowls again.]

And don't tell me who I don't give a shit about.

I'm sure it is. Doesn't change anything, from where I'm sitting. And I do look out for him. Somebody's gotta, he's just a kid. I know what it's like to be a messed up unwanted kid.

I call it how I see it, is all.
