. . .

I got upset, I shouldn't have, but I did.

[pussyfortono]

If I was you, I would have gotten upset as well.

[blueondeck]

[that at least make me feel better]

[pussyfortono]

[ here, he is going to put his hand on your shoulder & then grip it ]

[blueondeck]

[you are the best bro ever. continuing]

He got upset and said he wasn't Basco, wasn't like Basco. I already knew that. I didn't want anything from Basco. Who would want anything from him?

But then Marvelous asked me what I wanted from him... by himself. On his own.

[pussyfortono]

. . . you were not ready to answer that after what he told you.

[blueondeck]

[nods, confirming] I had no answer.

[pussyfortono]

Did he understand that?

[blueondeck]

We changed the subject, so I don't know.

[pussyfortono]

Who changed it?

[blueondeck]

I went silent so he went on to the new subject.

[pussyfortono]

. . . how do you feel right now?

[blueondeck]

Like puking still. Like he's being a huge baby...

. . .

[pussyfortono]

[ he gets up & goes to his drawers. he rifles through it a bit before pulling out a small tin. he opens it & takes something out before walking over to you & holding it out to you ] It is a mint. It will help.

[blueondeck]

[takes it] Thanks.

[pussyfortono]

[ he goes over to the mini-fridge too, getting a can of ginger ale & then coming over & handing that to you too ] For nausea.

[blueondeck]

[takes that as well. I'll pop that open first and sip it]

He said my name.

[pussyfortono]

. . . [ you poor thing ]

[blueondeck]

The Basco we knew doesn't even acknowledge the rest of us who aren't Marvelous. We're just those people he's associating with.

[pussyfortono]

. . . what a charming man.

[blueondeck]

Marvelous wanted me to make sure you warned the rest of your team about him. If he get's his memories back, he might be able to take your powers from you.

[pussyfortono]

Ah, I will be sure to tell them.

[blueondeck]

I'm not sure what's worse.

[pussyfortono]

He is an enemy regardless of whether he has his memories or not.

[blueondeck]

. . .

That's not the kind of Pirate I am.
