So I ran into a friend of yours.

text;

[growling]

[ crap. ]

Any chance you feel like being more specific? Or is this a run-up to a game of 20 questions.

1/2 [text] never forgives never forgets

[growling]

Seriously.

[text]

[growling]

Is she a nurse?

[civilwarring]

[Unfortunately Aidan isn't catty enough to write 'He had a scraggly beard' so instead Josh gets:]

Derek Hale?

voice;

[growling]

[ wow even josh recognizes that it's a magnificent beard don't be petty!! anyway sorry, text isn't really going to cover it. ]

Right. [ this is awkward. he's not entirely sure if he should panic or play it cool, so have a very tentative- ] How'd that go?

[ did you kill him, or. ]

voice;

[civilwarring]

I don't know, Josh. How do you think it went?

[There's no missing the clipped edge to his voice - it's not entirely accusatory but it's... no wait, yeah. It's a little bit of that. Especially given how cagey and awkward Josh is sounding right now.]

[nebbish]

Why

voice;

[growling]

[ that's a rhetorical question, right. ]

Did he say anything? About you. Not you you, but—

1/2 [text]

[growling]

Nothing, just comparing notes.

[text]

[growling]

I swear that sounded less creepily chauvinistic in my head.

voice, auggielocked;

[growling]

[ well he always says the right thing, so. ]

I know it isn't. And I believe you when you say it's different where you are, but it's just— I don't know if I'm really hardwired for it.

[ nora, on the other hand... ]

[text]

[nebbish]

Right. Deleting it off my phone now, just in case. If Nina got a hold of that and got offended, fair warning, she would tear you to little bits.

voice, auggielocked;

[altercate]

Is she?

[ which might be the point here. ]

[text]

[growling]

Only if Nora didn't beat her to it.

But seriously, man, congratulations. Did she just get here this last jump?

voice, auggielocked;

[growling]

She was.

[ has been, still is. his tone's guarded, verging on final; he knows it's not the explanation derek's looking for, but he doesn't want to get into it. ]

[text]

[nebbish]

Yeah. And congratulations to you, too, I suppose, if that's the right word for it. I'm not fully convinced.

voice, auggielocked;

[altercate]

She isn't anymore?

[ inferring that it went badly on all ends, is that not what josh wanted?

[text]

[growling]

Yeah, not exactly the ideal setting for a reunion.

[ also wait. ]

You did't speak to Nora, did you?

voice, auggielocked;

[growling]

Look, just— [ this is clearly not working. but he mostly trusts derek, and he definitely trusts nora - or should trust her on this, right? her business, not his. ]

If you want to ask her about it, ask.

voice, auggielocked;

[altercate]

I want to ask you.

[ but he isn't. ]

I need to check in on some other people. Keep an eye out for Isaac, will you?

[text]

[nebbish]

God, no. I thought you'd probably wish to have that particular discussion without me mucking up the works from the start.

voice, auggielocked;

[growling]

[ good. josh knows this is just delaying the inevitable, but he'll take it. ]

Can do. Is everything alright?

[text]

[growling]

Thank you for literally being the only person on this ship with some common sense.

But speaking of that conversation, Aidan's here, too.

[text]

[nebbish]

[He's not even being sarcastic when he writes:]

He's your Mitchell, yeah? That's great. Congratulations.
