[the comm has clearly come on mid-conversation. rather, mid-argument. it's a voice transmission.]

--ave an answer for you, Dent.

I don't believe you. How can you not know when you're the one who was keeping her from me? If you don't know, who would?

[there are footsteps, heading towards the person holding the comm.]

I hope you aren't lying to me.

Who told you she was gone?

[there's suddenly the sound of someone moving quickly, away from the comm. scuffling.]

Bastard--

You damn--

[something slams into someone, and breaks. a loud thump as a body hits the floor. running footsteps]

Don't test your luck. It runs out for everyone sooner or later.

[and the transmission suddenly ends]

[ooc; this post comes from kate kane's communicator. this is backdated to about 6 pm, in reference to this log. red is kate kane, purple is harvey dent. responses will be delayed ic.]

Yeah, I'm good. Nill's okay, too. [ shaken, but at least unharmed. ]

[bests]

Are you going to stay okay?

encrypted;

[gevurah]

Yeah.

... Yeah, I'll be fine.

encrypted;

[bests]

... Are you going to hate me if I ask if you're sure about that?

encrypted;

[gevurah]

No.

[ a beat. ]

I'm more worried for Nill's safety. He might target her.

She's got me, Bobbi, a teleporting dog, and a man who can kill people with a whisper here, with the rest of the Avengers a holler away. She'll be fine.

[gevurah]

I know she's always been more comfortable with the Avengers, even if her friends Danny and Luke aren't here.

encrypted;

[bests]

Even though a lot of us hardly know her?

[gevurah]

You are the good guys. [ as cheesy that sounds... ]

encrypted;

[bests]

Heh. True enough.

[gevurah]

I owe you for this, Carol.

encrypted;

[bests]

No you don't.

encrypted;

[gevurah]

In spite of last time?

encrypted;

[bests]

I'd be a shitty friend if I didn't do this. Not just to you.

encrypted;

[gevurah]

[ PAUSES. ]

It... was a bad time.

[ renee leaving still hurts, but she has to focus on dent. ]

encrypted;

[bests]

You don't say.

[ she's still a little mad... ]

encrypted;

[gevurah]

[ KIND OF MAD, TOO... but she wants to stay focused. ]

You can yell at me later.

[ she'd prefer never because she still thinks the assumptions crossed the line, but yeah, got to think about nill's safety and finding dent. ]

encrypted;

[bests]

I don't actually like yelling at people, especially friends.

encrypted;

[gevurah]

[ ACTUALLY SILENT.

because it's rare for people who do consider her a friend to not just yell at her and burn those bridges immediately. ]

encrypted;

[bests]

We'll talk when all this is over.

encrypted;

[gevurah]

I hear you.

Alright.
