Are these things EVER hypothetical?

"Okay, okay, here's the deal. Let's say that there's this 'friend' who is really mad right now. One of HIS friends got threatened by some asshole with things that were very, very unpleasant. Now this 'friend' is deciding whether he should be out for blood. He really wants to hurt the guy, but it may have a ripple effect

*Changeling is looking very blonde today, and reasonably bored. His arms are folded behind his head.*

If this relates to the situation I think it relates to, then it's already been resolved. Circumstances clarified, threats nullified, and so on. Not that I'm suprised you wouldn't have been told that by her.

"...What do ya' mean? Clarify all this."

Well, let's see. Are we talking about my boyfriend threatening Terra? Because he did that on my behalf after I got hurt thanks to Beast Boy finding out she'd been cheating on him. And it's not like he started out being threatening or anything, she was pretty damn rude and obtuse first. *Changeling shakes his head* Anyway, I talked to Beast Boy about it all, and we came to an agreement that the threats were pretty much rescinded. He's broken up with her, and I don't really care any more. So she's not going to get hurt by either of us unless she starts it.

"Ah, well that partly relieves and disappoints me at the same time."

Hm. How much damage does the 'prick' stand to do, and is it easily reparable or prevented next time?

[man_of_means]

"A considerable amount of physical damage to her."

[starsmedic]

Oh yeah. I'd wait to see if he intends to make good. Ready the spine-breaking but don't deploy it until he moves in - so it was warranted, that kind of thing.

[man_of_means]

"So restrain the urge to spine-break until an attack comes. Okay, I guess that makes good sense."

[tyne_dyed_devil]

"I think I agree with the lady. Get ready to break his spine but wait until he does something, first. They could just be empty threats."

[man_of_means]

"That seems to be the best choice of action."

[tyne_dyed_devil]

"Plus, this way you won't have worry about the guilt of paralyzing a guy who might not have deserved it."

[man_of_means]

"I don't think she'd lie to me, though. Unless she's the one who misunderstood."

[leavemea_lone]

"How about you stay out of it?"

[man_of_means]

"Because it ain't in my nature to?"

[leavemea_lone]

"It's got nothing to do with you, Greed. You'll make things worse by interfering."

[man_of_means]

"It's already been handled, anyway."

Tim is smiling very faintly. He's not in uniform, he doesn't appear to have any weapons, and he's holding a slushie that has turned his tongue rather blue.

"I'm flattered." Slurp! "She was really scared, huh?"

[man_of_means]

"You're lucky you're not flattened, bitch. It's a good thing this has been put to bed."

[redlyreflecting]

"Are you telling me you've never been used before?" Slurp. "I mean, someone you like tells you any old thing and you run off to break spines because you know you can weather the consequences, no matter what they are?" Slurp. "What about the time you lost your shields? Was that fun?"

[man_of_means]

"Not fun at all, really. I can weather consequences pretty easily. I GAVE my shield away, idiot."
