i bet she was a real piece of work. more than now. really the first time we meet you try to jack my wallet and you don't see what i had to complain about that cryo thing must have done something to him

first: i didn't try, i succeeded
second: you got a great partner out of the deal anyway so it was worth it
but he really was pretty cool even before the cryo
maybe it has something to do with his time in magic merc school
or maybe i just know how to handle myself better than you did back then
i suppose i have an unfair advantage

i let you take it. like i said back then you were telegraphing everything. and great's a little subjective. i did get a partner out of it i will give you that i don't know kid there's a lot of hinky stuff going on there i mean magic school? i definitely didn't send you to a school for that but yeah i guess you would know him better than i did still strange as hell to even think about you two talking to each other

uh-huh i still say i got it honestly and you only noticed afterward
and i am totally great, you don't have to be bashful about it
i will accept all compliments
you are right about the hinkiness and the strange as hell though
i can talk to him for a couple minutes and then my brain catches up to what's happening and i get a head cramp
it might be weirder for elena though
it's disconcerting as hell to look at a kid and know you're gonna bang the hell out of them one day
i assume

i knew because you were tailing me all over the city it wasn't exactly hard to figure it out when i felt it go missing. kid a great partner is someone who doesn't blow up the location before we can get the treasure jesus i didn't need to think about that. what does she have to say about this? and do you ever feel different since he's been here or when you're talking to him? memories changed or anything like that?

or when you reached for it to buy the lady a drink and realized you never felt it go missing
i know the truth
anyway i only blew up two cities and neither really had treasure that we could realistically bring back and fence so they don't count
i think she has a hard time reconciling me in front of her with the small me over there so she mostly leaves him to me
and no i don't
i don't remember a damn thing about magic merc school and i definitely can't cast any spells
too bad, when i was a kid in my magic phase i would have loved the idea

hate to break it to you kid but you've been living a delusion all these years if you think that's the truth right that nate the great phase boy am i glad i missed that and i think it's best for all of us you didn't attend magic merc school magic and mercenaries can never be a good thing

uh-huh keep telling yourself that i know the truth
and my magic phase was awesome but i guess we can't have everything
as long as there's a version of me running around the ship who DID go to magic merc school i think it's our job to be good influences. ish
you up for that again?
since you did a pretty good job the first time around

[i luv u dad]

i've had enough practice with one of you i think i can manage another long as he doesn't throw a spell at me every time he disagrees with me on something [Can you feel the pointed look through the texts, Nate? He loves you too.]

hey i never would have done that
i threw scathing teenage sarcasm at you when i disagreed with you, not anything violent

teenage sarcasm? kid you still throw that at everyone you disagree with let's just hope he does the same and that merc school didn't teach him a different way to handle disappointment

no that's adult sarcasm, it's a totally different thing
it's sarcasm that's matured
anyway he's been fine so far but i guess we'll see

sounds about the same to me he show you any magic tricks yet?

not yet but i'm sure it's only a matter of time
feel free to ask for a demonstration first though

yeah think i'll wait till it's absolutely necessary. don't want to blow up the damned ship or my ass

just don't eat anything spicy
and i'm sure you won't have to worry about that

every time the topic comes up probably. everyone else is like NOT AGAIN

they don't realize the two of them both enjoy it :')
