Re: eddie/muerte quicklog
[Eddie smiled and tapped his fingers on his chin.] Interesting. [He glanced up and around almost mischievously and pleased. The insistence that they were all good people made him shake his head, though. Eddie wasn't comfortable with some of the fear that came with power. The knowledge people had that he could take things away just as quickly as he gave them.] She was an old friend. One of the very few people who understood me enough to ask me questions. She gave me this, actually. [He pointed to the tie pin.]
[Eddie wondered if Duane knew what that felt like. To only have a few people get it. Most nerdy kids did. These days, Eddie had to tailor everything he said to most people. If he ever stepped out of line or didn't speak the way they wanted to be spoken to, he'd be seen as a terrible person. He knew that. He knew not everyone understood who he was.] Boot the computer up for me. [Eddie told him and handed over a couple installation disks.] Here's all the spyware and virus scanning software, some upgrades. Set a password for wifi. Make sure it's got Skype just in case people can talk to their families or doctors. [He stood up and held his hand out for Duane.] You kicked ass today.
