Re: Jack / Patrick
Yes. But it's done with, I've promised I won't pick fights with Adrian and make everything more complicated. Oh, I'm sorry. I know you and she were close. Very close. And yes. Well, I'm a very long way from when Dahlia and I were what you could consider close, but I imagine you saw it as much of a clusterfuck as I did.
No, I didn't. I don't know a lot. Newt and I talk, but you may have noticed he's very private. We were virtual strangers, so it's not as if I know anything much beyond what Newt feels like telling me.
Patrick, you're young. So you're going to forgive me saying this, but I really don't know who you are. I know Newt's attached to you and Newt doesn't have many people in his life which means you're important. I was twenty relatively recently and I know what that feels like, and it's bloody exhausting. So I've rather a lot of slack for that sort of thing. I know I probably shouldn't say it because he's a grown man, but the only way you could probably make me hate you, unless you're ridiculously unpleasant, is if you hurt him badly. And even then, I reserve my hatred for where it actually feels good.
