1. Just to be safe, you should be prepared to jump out of a second story window.

2. New rule: you aren't allowed anything. Ever.

3. This is me reassuring you that I'm still alive, AND making sure that you still are, too. If you don't reply in five minutes I'm coming after you.

4. So everyone's clear, it was already on fire when I got there.

5. Don't let the fact that I took her out first discourage you.

6. [ text him! canon, crosscanon, assumed cr, misfires, all loved ]

[flashpointed]

How the hell did you already find ANOTHER fight to get into

[fromsprouts]

[No response comes for at least five minutes!]

[flashpointed]

I have your location.

You better wrap it up, because I'm on my way.

[fromsprouts]

I'm okay. Other people here are hurt. They deserved it, though.

That all? Pssh, I can do that in my sleep.

[... and honestly has lbr]

[flashpointed]

I guess I should be glad you're feeling confident.

How would fire change that equation for you?

[ ....... ]

Hypothetically.

[catsgothistongue]

Suggest something higher than two stories, and MAYBE I'll hesitate more.

[Spoiler alert: he won't cuz he's fallen higher than a good couple stories before like its nothing]

Depends, am I jumping into the fire or...

[Cause either way he'll do it.]

[flashpointed]

At worst, through it, maybe.

If it gets to the point where I might be at risk of sending people into a burning building, I'll at least do you the courtesy of considering a different plan.

I don't think I'm a fan of this new rule. what did I do to deserve this again? please refresh my memory.

[flashpointed]

Does the phrase 'give an inch, take a mile' ring any bells?

I have to be harsh with you, or else I'll never get anything done again.

[strumpet]

oh it's a popular saying, I know it well, trust me.

but that just means I have to turn up the charm.

[flashpointed]

I know you will. And I'm man enough to admit I know it'll work, too.

Hence the rule.

[strumpet]

don’t you think ‘anything’ is a bit harsh? does that include water?

[revengeisalie]

what

WHY

[flashpointed]

There's a scenario where fire spreads into the stairwell. You'll need a secondary point of egress.

Just to be safe.

[revengeisalie]

Can't you, I don't know, aim better?

[flashpointed]

Do you think I'm planning to aim badly?

I don't know if you've noticed, but flames don't tend to take orders after they've started. The window is a BACKUP PLAN.

[revengeisalie]

They don't? I thought maybe you could control them... but okay.

Don't mind me, I'll be looking for what the least hazardous way down is.

It's been forever since I've played her please be gentle.

With all due respect, sir.

You first.

scoops u gently

[flashpointed]

I would, but that would require you to let me out into the field for once.

Re: scoops u gently

[amestriannanny]

[Urk. Right to the quick.]

Jumping from a second story window while at a non-work function, then?

[What are the odds?]

[flashpointed]

Alright. Yes. If we're ever at the same non-work function together, and there's an emergency, and the only available exit point is a second story window, I'll jump first.

Sounds like an interesting party, if nothing else.

[amestriannanny]

No, wait. Hold on.

You clearly had some sort of plan cooked up. What was your hypothetical second-story jump scenario, Colonel?

[Could it possibly be any more interesting than a social function requiring a rush evac? Forget battle of the wits. Battle of the delusion was the new hotness.]
