VIDEO // CLOSED TO REBECCA

[ Technically he could just go across the hall and ask but- this seems easier somehow. ]

Hey uhm... Rebecca? You got any concealer I can borrow?

ACTION // OPEN

[ Deciding that makeup will probably draw more attention than the bruise itself, a freshly punched Reid hits the prison streets. He needs coffee and a bagel, so he stops by Bean Crushers, lingering in a corner booth for a while with a stack of books that are due at the library. While in Sector 2 he also takes a moment to stop by the school - he hasn't held classes in forever and he probably won't now that his teacher's aide is missing in action but he can stop by the music room and play piano for a bit. It's been weeks, if not months.

He can, of course, also be encountered on the way between places, sporting a beautiful and fresh shiner. Thanks Leia. ]

	Yeah. Things don't really get less complicated even without the demons and serial killers, do they? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Give me a serial killer any day... they're easier to handle than this. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tallerthanthou 2016-01-23 09:53 pm UTC (link)
	Well, sure, they teach you to handle them. There's nothing for this. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-01-23 09:55 pm UTC (link)
	Pretty sure this is what parents are for, with other people. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tallerthanthou 2016-01-23 09:59 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, right. Well, I did learn from dad that if someone you care about is killed you should uproot your life and spend it looking for vengeance, so I probably shouldn't complain. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-01-23 10:02 pm UTC (link)
	You know, I learned from my dad that if your mentally ill wife is the witness of a murder, you should completely abandon her and your four year old son. I have a feeling our dad's aren't shining examples of fatherhood. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tallerthanthou 2016-01-23 10:04 pm UTC (link)
	That's what happened? [New information there. Damn.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-01-23 10:11 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah. I never told you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tallerthanthou 2016-01-23 10:17 pm UTC (link)
	[He shakes his head.] So you haven't seen him since you were four? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-01-23 10:19 pm UTC (link)
	No, I saw him a couple of years ago. [ A beat. ] When I accused him of having committed that murder. [ Awkward. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tallerthanthou 2016-01-23 10:23 pm UTC (link)
	Wow. That murder? Wait, the one your Mom witnessed? Was it him? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-01-23 10:24 pm UTC (link)
	No, it wasn't him. Turns out what I remembered was him burning my mother's bloody clothes in order to protect her. He didn't think she'd be up for playing the witness in court. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tallerthanthou 2016-01-23 10:26 pm UTC (link)
	And he couldn't handle covering it up? I'm sorry. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-01-23 10:31 pm UTC (link)
	[ He shrugs. ] It was a long time ago. Far as I'm concerned, I never had a dad. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tallerthanthou 2016-01-23 10:40 pm UTC (link)
	[That doesn't actually make it less sad. And it gives some points to "sir" who wasn't great, but he was his Dad.] So you haven't talked to him since the accusations either? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-01-23 10:55 pm UTC (link)
	Not really. What would we even talk about? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tallerthanthou 2016-01-23 11:02 pm UTC (link)
	I don't know. I guess you've had pretty different lives now. I guess the thing that makes family is being there for each other. [~~Maybe that's why certain half brothers in hell never get brought up.~~] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-01-24 09:34 am UTC (link)
	Exactly. I have more of a family in my team than I do the ones I'm related to. [ Even including his mom a little bit but that's for different reasons best not delved into. He loves her but it's different when you can't find comfort in your own mom. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tallerthanthou 2016-01-24 05:30 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah. I mean I have Dean, but Bobby and Cas are family too now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-01-24 10:48 pm UTC (link)
	Genetic lineage is overrated. [ He shrugs. Good derailing of the subject, though. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tallerthanthou 2016-01-25 07:02 am UTC (link)
	And yet really important to angels and demons. But I guess that's a my world problem. [Hashtag?] So, I got invited to this thing tonight. Is it weird if I play poker at your ex's? [Bros before hos.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-01-25 04:15 pm UTC (link)
	Not really, since I'm going to that thing too. [ So, y'know. ] You don't have to not spend time with Kitty for my sake. We're all adults here. [ Semi. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tallerthanthou 2016-01-25 09:35 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, well, good. I'll see you there then. And I don't really know Kitty outside of being the boss. [Almost like the universe is keeping them apart somehow.] Chuck invited me to this thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-01-25 09:42 pm UTC (link)
	Chuck? That's... Ton's wife, right? I haven't really talked to her. [ Weird, that. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tallerthanthou 2016-01-25 10:17 pm UTC (link)
	That's the one. She's interesting. Fearless. Optimistic. Hopefully will never tell me about any of the weird things she did in my body. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
