( Damian is between stages 4 and 5 for the purposes of this post, though the nature of his secrets his making him panic a bit. However, compelled to blurt things out as he is, he's still trying to protect the big secrets. It's not going terribly well. )Honestly, I don’t know why I ever bother talking to you people,

Damian. You're home right? We're meeting up. Asap. I don't care where exactly, but somewhere we can talk.

[He sounds a little worried. Okay. Really worried. Worried that Damian thinks he treats him as just an obligation.

Worried that he's outing himself as a Communist despite the fact he somehow contradicted himself while outing himself out. That would be almost laughable if he wasn't so worried.]

[notasidedick]

Uh, well, I can tell you that I can still see you, if that's it.

It probably is. Everyone has been acting funny as of late. [Dick is still in the early stages.]

[xuffasch]

That's not the point.

As if that's anything new.

[notasidedick]

I don't think it's working.

I guess it isn't. But this has to do with the recent news. They might do something to you if you're saying you're a Communist.

i like this icon i think i'm just going to use it forever

[xuffasch]

So they say they're going to hunt Communists, and then make you confess? That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

...and it works well enough.

I love it. LOVE IT.

[notasidedick]

Basically. The joys of American history I guess. The confessing part seems to be working, but I don't know what they're going to do with the people who do confess to being one.

If you say so.

Probably kill them as an example to the others. That's about how things work, here.

[notasidedick]

[DICK DOES NOT LOOK PLEASED ABOUT THAT.]

I really don't want them killing you while I'm here.

[xuffasch]

...as if I'd let them. I was just pointing out what their probable course of action is.

[notasidedick]

But don't they just seem to bring us back? Is there really a point in killing us other then for their enjoyment?
