VOLITION - (It's always nice to hear a friend's voice, isn’t it? It’s easy to forget when you’re alone, that they’re really out there, that anyone actually exists outside of your own skull. The whole world could just be a bad dream; neurons misfiring in the dark.)
REACTION SPEED - (It takes a moment to register the fullness of the offer. You feel your eyes sting.)
INLAND EMPIRE - (You aren’t easy to live with. You know that. Someone told you that. It must’ve been her. She’d know, she was there for it all: the late nights, the crying, and the drinking. The nights when all the craziness you pent up inside comes spilling out.)
SUGGESTION - (You shouldn’t have told her about us. I told you not to.)
EMPATHY - (But all that was *before.* You’re different now, aren’t you? You aren’t even an officer anymore…)
HALF LIGHT - (You’ll ruin him. And this other guy too. It doesn’t matter that you don’t try to. It's in you, Harry. You’d take their kindness and destroy them for it.)
No. I’m not going to do that again.
INLAND EMPIRE - (So what are you going to do? Sleep in the streets?)
SUGGESTION - (Silco's men have been working underground. Maybe you could ask him?)
I like who I am with Vander. I'm going to give this a shot. This other guy? He’s probably cool too.
He responds before they can start yelling at him again.
VOLITION - (Maybe this could work out. For a little while. Until you can find your own place.)
“Hi Vander! I don’t think I’ve met Kenshi but I'd like to, any friend of yours is a friend of mine. I'm totally down to try this thing.”
"Great. Kenshi's nice. Quiet, respectful guy. I'm betting you'll get along. Splitting three ways will be affordable. I recently came into some money, too, don't know how, and I've got a job, so I was thinking I could cover a bigger portion of the rent and you guys can just pay what you can."
Harry seems... Less likely to have a job, at the moment? It seems like he's been struggling, and Vander figured he might need a bit of help to get out of the Valentia.
"You got any preferences for what the house is like, or the location? I was thinking maybe one of them rowhouses. I'm not picky so long as there's a bed I fit in, and Kenshi just wants a kitchen that's not tiny. I work at Cherry's in Gloria."
