Seems like a lotta people got ta go 'ome recently. Either that or they be stone cold. [ Verbal shrug. ]

So on dat topic- an idle question, fer all a' ya.

Do ya still want ta go 'ome? If ya do, why?

Nope. My dad and I don't really see eye to eye. It's a really sad story.

Re: voice

[kingofrooks]

Avoidin' 'ome entirely just 'cause a yer dad's pretty pathetic, kiddo.

Re: voice

[under_thehood]

He's not even really my dad either. We're bound by a little piece of paper that he probably lost or threw away.

[He's not pulling punches for anyone's sake.]

Kid, yer kind of thick, aren'tcha?

[ See, the good thing about Matches talking to Jason? He can say all the things Bruce won't. ]

Re: voice

[under_thehood]

If you're implying that it's love that binds us, then you're wrong. And it certainly isn't blood.

[Sometimes Jason really hates how quickly Bruce draws out those insecurities.]

Look, if ya think that a parent who got ya pretty much by luck is better than a parent who chose to 'ave ya by choice- yer a fuckin' idiot.

No one chose to have me. In any sense of the word.

So you're an expert in parenting now.

... oh, jay, my baby boy, why so angsty /holds

[kingofrooks]

Nah. Just watch some people, 'ave some common sense.

he's so angsty all the time.

[under_thehood]

You're a moron.

i am so reminded about the oscar wilde quote about masks right now

[kingofrooks]

Am I really.

oh that's so true.

[under_thehood]

[Jason knows that this could possibly cement Matches's identity by this, but he doesn't cate.]

If you think common sense will get you anywhere, you're wrong.

ikr. what the hell is with them, seriously.

[kingofrooks]

Kid, common sense's gotten me into and out of more places than ya 'ave words fer.

they like to have out-angsting contests and who can hit harder.

[under_thehood]

I'm not about to take your word for it.

and sarcastic verbal abuse

[kingofrooks]

Ain't got much else ta go by, 'ere. Name'a Matches Malone got nothin' behind it yet.

it's a good time.

[under_thehood]

Your word still means nothing. Just because you have nothing else doesn't mean anyone will trust you. And they shouldn't.

[kingofrooks]

Whatever ya say, kiddo.

But if yer so suspicious- ya ain't got much to go on 'bout anythin'.
