Failed Lock to Rider - Posted to the Comm

[jagan_glare]

Rider. I thought we'd talked about this - that whole dumb alternaverse virus and whatnot - but today I go to check my inbox, and you'll never guess what I got from an anonymous sender.

...Midou. Haven't we discussed posting pictures of your wife in strange poses for all to see?

[jagan_glare]

Shit. I meant to put this in the personal one.

This is more than that, Issei. There are some that are a LOT more than that.

[stripping]

Thought as much.

And they're fake pictures drawn by people who have never met Rider. What is the point of posting them?

[jagan_glare]

The point is that they're not, and I have others that this anonymous person sent that I'm not posting here.

[stripping]

And you have actual proof that the other ones are real? Because if I had a yen for every picture of myself or someone I knew in a situation that didn't happen or wasn't at all what it looked like, I would be a very rich man.

[jagan_glare]

I'm willing to write off the last one - she says she's never met him, so that one, fine, it's fake, probably 'shopped. The explanation for the second one makes sense. The rest...

I've had to study photos and such for work before, Issei. I can tell between a real photo and a fake one. Whomever got these is a sick pervert in his own right, but I really didn't need to see them. We'd put it all behind us, and then this comes up.

[stripping]

I still don't see why you need to make such an issue over it. Parts of her history do not include you. As long as there's no reason for such things to happen again in the future, is it really relevant?

[jagan_glare]

I get that. But if this is true then what if when...ugh.

Yes, okay, your wife probably banged someone else. What's the issue?

[stripping]

...I was under the impression that you were above being upset about getting someone's icky germs. Or do you mean something else?

*tears hair out*

[jagan_glare]

I meant something else.

You'll hurt yourself doing that, you know.

[stripping]

Then say it, or I won't be able to reassure you that you're worrying too much.

it'll grow back, even thicker and spikier than before

[jagan_glare]

It's ridiculous, so no. More likely than not, I am overreacting.

Th-that's possible?!

[stripping]

See? I'm glad you're starting to be reasonable about this.

yes!

[jagan_glare]

It's fine. I just screwed everything up because of some anonymous bastard now, that's all.

Shock and horror!

[stripping]

She'll probably forgive you for being suspicious, even if it was a moment of idiocy.

ohemgee!

[jagan_glare]

Guess I'll have to cross my fingers and hope.
