Well, York might not necessarily have needed it, but Wash was in a different state. So far, Tex hadn't decided to maim him. Instead, he had a nice Meta thrashing that would be nice to relax after.

He'd taken the time to make sure that his arm was stabilized and that removing armor wouldn't undo Kat's work in setting it properly. Though there were still bruising and marks from what happened with the Meta that were visible as he moved to join York. "Not a bad idea to come here... And good to know you're still alive."

"Bullshit." He said it flatly, not taking 'no' for an answer. "D, maybe, but you don't owe me shit."

dontpatr0nizeme October 5 2011, 03:44:09 UTC

Washington glared angrily. "Delta needs you."

His voice and expression softened a little and he touched the back of his neck again, reassuringly.

"I know he does. Doesn't mean you have to do that much for me."

dontpatr0nizeme October 5 2011, 03:53:12 UTC

"Delta needs you alive and well."

And he couldn't do anything about that at home. Couldn't even protect Delta.

"And you're a great proponent of AI well-being, huh?"

He sounded a little amused; York could have sworn Wash hated the little guys.

dontpatr0nizeme October 5 2011, 04:00:10 UTC

Washington hesitated. "I don't hate AIs, York. It's complicated."

encryptedlock October 5 2011, 04:08:47 UTC

"Look, all I'm saying is that if everything you've done is for Delta's sake, you've been overdoing it."

dontpatr0nizeme October 5 2011, 04:10:43 UTC

Washington shook his head. This conversation really wasn't helping him relax. "York, I failed him, left him to deal with a fate worse than death... Then I killed him."

encryptedlock October 5 2011, 04:15:30 UTC

Yeah, well, maybe that's why York planned a few hours out here. He can't help the shudder of revulsion that goes through him at the idea, though.

"And then the same thing happened to you. Don't you think that repaid your karmic debt?"

dontpatr0nizeme October 5 2011, 04:49:40 UTC

Washington shook his head. "I'm still alive. So no."

encryptedlock October 5 2011, 05:01:41 UTC

York sighed. How many times did he have to say it?

"You don't want to die here, Wash. You really don't."

dontpatr0nizeme October 5 2011, 05:11:22 UTC

Washington shook his head. "Fair is fair, York. And Delta didn't die in a place where he can come back."

encryptedlock October 5 2011, 05:14:58 UTC

Well, this was failing spectacularly on the relaxing front.

"Wash. Think about it. Would I have come to your room first thing to look for you if I didn't forgive you?"

dontpatr0nizeme October 5 2011, 05:31:55 UTC

Washington sighed. "It's not your forgiveness I'm looking for." It was his own... He couldn't forgive himself.

encryptedlock October 5 2011, 05:34:42 UTC

He frowned. "Maybe you should. I'm not going to forgive you if you die in some stupid way, you know."
