[Those sounds you hear are him unpacking stuff.]

So, uh, anyone wanna bet on Vegas being the next Town of Crazy Numbered Hijinks? I mean, that light looked pretty similar to the stuff that shot up from here a few months ago. Does this mean it's less of a "Locke City" thing and more of a--what the hell.

[More rustling and then he flips the feed to video to show off a sword]

I am getting really tired of finding stuff in places when it wasn't there a week ago. Pulses I can handle. Finding swords in my suitcase or boots under the bed or bows in the closet, not so much. Next it'll be axes in the freezer or something, I swear to God.

[Siiiiigh]

Anyone, d'you think the pink light means it's an Earth thing and not just a Locke City thing?

If you think I wouldn't toss you under the bus you're not as smart as I thought you were, Gabe.

You'd have to catch me first, and I have longer legs than you. And if I carry on like this you're not even going to have the age advantage on me by then.

I can run for longer. Also: horses. I work with horses and I'm pretty sure they can out run you!

[Which is enough to remind Gabriel of that memory he got the day he met Killian helping to find the children of the figure on the white horse and chasing the dark horses into the river. It seems like a long time ago now.]

Only if you have one there to start off with.

[Hobbits, Gabe. They were Hobbits]

Jerk.

[He doesn't know that yet though!]

So we're in agreement, then? Don't worry, we'll call you a martyr and never let your selfless sacrifice be forgotten. I'll make sure there's a pair of platform boots engraved on your gravestone. With wings or something.

I've got a bow and I know how to use it. Don't think I won't!

[He makes a face, laughing]

[thebalrogslayer]

You wouldn't dare! I don't believe that you're unheroic enough to shoot a man in the back.

[youngestone]

Maybe in the kneecaps.

[thebalrogslayer]

Oh, I see how it is. Make sure that I have no chance of escape.

[youngestone]

And get you down to my height, yeah. Gotta make it fair!

[thebalrogslayer]

Are you sure you don't want a pair of platform boots as well?

Video | Private

[youngestone]

I'd still need to shoot your kneecaps out. I'm like a foot shorter than you are!

[thebalrogslayer]

Those things can be impressively big. [Trust him, he's seen all kinds of alternative fashions.] You might not be able to walk, but... And I'll stoop if it saves me from having my kneecaps being shot out!

[youngestone]

You're a dick.

[And he's laughing.]

[thebalrogslayer]

But not a jerk, so I suppose I can live with that. [Laughing as well. He's been called worse.]
