[Jason flicks on the NV, centered on the dead body of a thickly-set man, his chest now cut open. The blood around him, for those who notice, has dried some, as the vigilante first left the body and then came back to it to make an announcement. The video then clicks off and there's just text instead.]

Oruha's been avenged

...I'm glad to hear it. [Another friend she failed to protect or avenge. Tifa just sounds tired...but genuine.]

permatext from Jason

[under_thehood]

Told you I'd take care of it.

[meteor_heart]

You would...it's you?! Wow...I...[She's not normally a huge fan of blatant murder but at the same time...she's avenged.]...thanks. For taking care of it, she deserves better.

She deserves far better than what that dirtbag decided he wanted.

[meteor_heart]

I couldn't agree more. I wish...[I'd taught her better, that I'd been there, that I'd been useful]...I guess I just wish.

If you need anything, let me know.

[under_thehood]

[Because he feels it needs saying:] I would have saved her if I had been there.

[meteor_heart]

Me too...and I would have killed that guy to do it. [It's not normally the kind of thing she'd say, but this place...it's changed her, little by little.]

I mean it. You need -anything- let me know.

[under_thehood]

I need you to make sure you notify me if some creep comes knocking at your door, too.

[meteor_heart]

[That's...oddly touching.] I can handle myself, but I'll make sure to pass it along.

[under_thehood]

Good.
