[HIT HIM UP WITH SOME MESSAGES SHOULD YOU CHOOSE]

Comments

[artisticliberty]

I know. It is not as though I am not tempted, but as soon as he is aware others are involved, he will know that the contract is useless. And that will mean any protection we were able to negotiate will be gone.

[foolmetwice]

[his gaze narrows]

Is protection from someone like him really worth it?

[artisticliberty]

[softly]

He is the type who would inflict on Haru what he did to me without any hesitation. And she has suffered so much already... I do not want to even risk putting her through that.

[foolmetwice]

[. . . . . . . .]

Would he dare touch her when he knows we're watching him like a hawk?

[and the moment a single hair on Haru's head is harmed, there will be no holding back anymore?]

[artisticliberty]

[bitterly]

He wouldn't even hesitate.

[foolmetwice]

. . .

Then I think we need to talk to his team.

[get the rest of BARiTONES in on it. let them know that they need to keep their bad dog on a leash]

[artisticliberty]

I... don't know. How to approach them about it, exactly. Whether or not it is even advisable. What would they do, if they knew? Are they even capable of reigning him in?

[foolmetwice]

I don't know. But they have to understand that him acting out like this means that their entire unit is in more danger when it comes to bad games.

[it's shitty to hold an entire unit accountable for one man's actions, but. . .]

[artisticliberty]

They will be, when it comes to Taisho. Perhaps then they'll take the hint.

I don't know Yvette very well, but A says she cares about PR. And she swings by Heart from time to time.

[artisticliberty]

Yvette is... I enjoy her company. I consider her a friend, or something like it. She has taken an enthusiastic interest in art, and I want to encourage that. But I worry, still... and I am ashamed of second-guessing her intentions, but I cannot help it.

[foolmetwice]

Don't be ashamed. If she's willing to protect or defend someone who kidnapped you and tortured you for three or so days, then that says a lot about her priorities.

. . . which isn't me telling you that you should hate her, just-- you should adjust your own accordingly.

[artisticliberty]

Her priority may simply be to maintain enough of a working relationship with her unit so that she doesn't die or risk alienating herself. If that is so... I can sympathize.

[foolmetwice]

Yeah. I can too.

[shrugs a little]

It's not like BARiTONES as a whole is bad. There are a couple of people on the unit I really like.
