She had learned long ago it was always easier to throw a grenade and walk away without looking back to see the blast and the blood and the wreckage she left in her wake. She had chewed her way through the guts of this galaxy and never once turned to witness the smoldering remains. It was the only way she ever managed to keep walking. She always had a job—and the results of it were someone else’s. That was how the universe moved.

But she had made a mistake. She had turned around. She had lingered too long and now it was swallowing her, that stupid sentiment that would someday get her killed, accompanied by the relief that always came with sinking into her nature like it was soft snow.

— Mackenzie Lee, Gamora and Nebula

Minus the skipping.

[ ugggh ]

I can make sure you don't get yourself killed.

You have such confidence in my abilities.

Gee thanks.

[furibund]

You haven't exactly shown aptitude for the wild.

[inferiority_complex]

Okay so the woods are a little different than wandering around the Underworld.

Friend ≠ Babysitter

[furibund]

I'm still trying to figure out how you came to friends.

[inferiority_complex]

[Chris came to 'friends' the same way he came to it with his underworld contacts. Sheer persistence, stubbornness, manipulation and trade. Thankfully only the first two applied to the situation with Nebula.]

What you don't want to be friends?

I'm hurt.

[furibund]

[ Chris is in luck that the dice are nice to him. ]

I didn't say that.

If you're hurt that easily you need to toughen up. I'm not "friendly".

I guess sarcasm doesn't come across in brain text.

[furibund]

That was sarcasm? Could've fooled me.

[ She only 50% decided it was sarcasm, the rest just sounded like what she knew of him so! is this sarcasm or biting teasing??? who knows ]

[inferiority_complex]

When are you going to figure out that you don't scare me?

But sure, keep trying with that tough act.


[Okay that was a lie, you in fact did scare him Nebula, quite a lot.]
