All right...

[Mostly now he's just confused and concerned about her, especially with the long wait between texts. Never mind that he hasn't slept in the interim, he's more worried about her.]

No need to be sorry. Sounds like something you're worried about, though?

[hawk_shot]

[Shit...

She needs to be more open, doesn't she?]

Not really.
Look, my phone is playing up.
This was an old draft, I have no idea why it saved it and decided to send it now.
So.... Technicallt, it wasn't for you. Not you now.

[streetlevel]

Oh.

Do you want Peter to look at your phone? If it's acting up.

... what did you think you ruined before?

[hawk_shot]

Yeah, I should probably check with him. It's not the first time this happens.
StarkPhones...

...
Things between us.

[streetlevel]

You know what I think of them.

... between us? Something was wrong between us?

[hawk_shot]

That you want one for your birthday? Its October, right?

I must have said something stupid.

[streetlevel]

For moral reasons I am protesting my date of birth on the grounds of presents. It is withheld until further notice.

You're either gonna have to help me out with what was said or accept without further notice that I missed it.

[hawk_shot]

Guess that means we are going to have to celebrate your unbirthday.

I'm happy to forget everything about dumb jokes.
Or reckless behavior.
And sorry i worried you with this.

How are you doing?😬

[streetlevel]

Saint Nonnatus and I are one on the matter of unbirths too if Stark is involved.

I'm not any less unworried if you're mentioning reckless behavior needing forgiving.

I'm fine.

[hawk_shot]

Ok, I had to google that one.
Think I'll have better luck with you and Nonnatus if I think of another present?

I'm happy to pretend this never happened.

Just checking.

[streetlevel]

I don't need presents in general, but specifically, yeah, probably avoid those.

I'm not now, but I don't have a choice at the moment, do I? Unless you just tell me what happened.

[hawk_shot]

How about a bling blind cane?

... Look, I didn't do it.
I almost did.
I thought of...
Fuck.
Breaking into Fisk's place.

[streetlevel]

... you almost what?

[hawk_shot]

[Well, this is going great, isn't it?]

I didn't, ok?? The whole point is that I didn't!
We had a stupid argument or something.
I had this even stupider idea that honestly didn't seem as stupid at the moment.
Because I thought that even if I ended up dead, it would have been worth it! I would have made a change and helped the city!

I just
Had second thoughts.
That's why I never sent this.
But having it in drafts was a good reminder to never think of trying something like that.

[streetlevel]

I'm glad you had second thoughts. Choices like that you don't walk away from even if you somehow end up still alive.

[hawk_shot]

...

But what if that had been the right thing to do, Matt?
Maybe I could have saved lives.

[streetlevel]

By that logic I should have killed him twice by now and let a bullet hit him, all of which happened before this, so really, it would then be my fault. Is it? I certainly had all those chances.

[hawk_shot]

... Stop using my own logic against me.

[streetlevel]

Let me think about that.

Nah.

[hawk_shot]

You're horrible, did you know that?
Awful.
I can't believe you're one of my best friends.

Thank you.

[streetlevel]

I take both those things as nothing but compliments.

Anytime, partner.

[hawk_shot]

How's work?
You guys have plans for lunch?

[streetlevel]

Is it lunch time already? Is it past lunch time? ... what time is it?

[hawk_shot]

It's almost noon, Matt.

Work is really kicking yous ass today, isn't it?

[streetlevel]

Huh. No, no plans.

Did you consider I'm kicking it's ass?
