I never wanted him to get hurt like he did. [Hurt is an understatement. Frown on his face and clear upset in Ken's voice as he keeps talking, almost like he's talking to himself, unaware the device is on, but he knows.] I never meant anything like that by what I said. My brother was actually good to me. I just lost sight of it and wanted him to disappear. I wish I hadn't been so childish and stupid about it. If I could've just looked past myself-

...no. I-I didn't turn the device on for this! [But it's like word vomit.]

[He switches the feed to a filter before he can say more. He'll still babble against his will in responses.]


Deity Filter:
Deities, I've never had to address you before, not like this, so I hope this is the way to talk to you. I can go to the office, if I have to.

I wish to make a trade.


[ooc: Cursed with My Dirty Little Secret, and unable to do anything but talk about his dead brother, and his severe jealousy issues all day. So for those that wanted to know more about Ken's brother, Ken's darker aspects, or didn't even know he had a brother? Ask away.]

Ah, no! I'm sorry. I just wanted to know if that was acceptable?

Would you prefer something else?

[laszlo_jamf]

I like to be assured that what I'm receiving in trade is of the same value as what I'm giving. It only seems fair.

[oceantrauma]

This device I'd be giving you is very important to me. It's one of the few connections I have to my friends and my partner back home. Is two weeks not long enough?

|| Deity Filter ||

[laszlo_jamf]

Can we make it three?

|| Deity Filter ||

[oceantrauma]

Yes. Or a month. However long you want.

|| Deity Filter ||

[laszlo_jamf]

One month, then.

One month with aforementioned device in my possession and the life of Justin Pendleton will be restored.

|| Deity Filter ||

[oceantrauma]

Thank you!

And you promise not to open it up and do any experiments on it?

|| Deity Filter ||

[laszlo_jamf]

You do know how these things work, yes? Pandora's Box and all that, correct?

The more you tell me not to, the more I'll want to.

Bear that in mind.

Come by the office to finalize matters.

[ooc: He may examine it from the outside, but he won't harm the device in anyway. He just wants to add a little stress to the trade~]

|| Deity Filter ||

[oceantrauma]

[Going quiet on that, then.]

I'll be there shortly to deliver it. And, again, thank you.

[ooc: Stress addition accomplished!]

|| Deity Filter ||

[laszlo_jamf]

No, no. Thank you.

[ooc: Okay! Any time hereafter, the trade can go through, Justin will get his life back, and Ken can start fretting ♥ Have fun?]
