@hawkguy, text, day 156

Hey
Thanks for stepping in with that jackass on the network
@betterhalf
Al is a good kid and he doesn't deserve that.

No, he doesn't. No one does. He's been here since the beginning and seen more of his friends die than most. I wish we had ways to block individual users on these things.

[awwnoun]

Yeah same
I'm talking to Al about it and he's stubbornly taking it to heart
He's trying to insist its his fault his friends died and I'm really looking to dunk this betterhalf guy in a fountain for putting that thought in Al's head

[jumpthegun]

I'm doing the same, just trying to get him to stop engaging with betterhalf. I know Luna's there with him and doing her best to help, as well. Between the three of us, hopefully we can at least get him away from whomever that is.

I really don't understand people who act like that. They've just arrived. I'd think they've got better things to do.

[John is very much the last person to talk about not taking the deaths of friends to heart, but when it's other people, he has all of the arguments on hand to try to buck them up.]

[awwnoun]

Good
Seriously, good, you're doing a good thing

[ Clint's not the best at pep talks, but he think sometimes people need to get some heavyhanded encouragement for the good stuff they do. Worked with the Thunderbolts. ]

People like this are the types to make it worse for everybody else
Even the Joker hasn't been this much of a jackass right off the bat
I'm keeping an eye on the newbie
I don't want him picking on like, Ecks, either, or any of the kids

[jumpthegun]

[Clint, you're kind of weirding him out here. He... knows he did a good thing?]

I'll keep an eye out, as well. Between the pair of us, I'm sure we can head him off at the pass for most things.

[ Clint has a less than stellar view of Watson's self esteem. He just wants to make sure. He's distracted by actually talking to the guy (and to Batman, he's gonna kick Batman's ass), so Watson just gets a very distracted: ]

Yeah. Yeah, okay, cool.

[ In return. ]
