That's an understatement. [ he's rolling his eyes but that's the extent of the feeling behind his words. ] He caught up with me before we even went to Arima.

[ he didn't go to arima, but he doesn't say so, nodding along though he knows he can't be seen. ]

I only wanted what was mine back, Peter. You wouldn't relinquish it, and so I forged a deal. [ which was less to get the sword back and more to see if mitchell would survive the encounter but. that hardly seemed relevant. ]

One that's obviously worked out in your favor.

[ that would be sarcasm, adam. peter doesn't care about all the stupid reasons behind why he hired the guy, all he knows is that it was the wrong move to make if adam was hoping to keep peter around for any significant amount of time. ]

I don't see how. I was clearly mistaken. [ i thought you'd murder him nbd. ]

I was being sarcastic.

Naturally. [ it isn't said with any certain inflection. ]

I suppose we all must live with the consequences of our actions, at the end of each day.

I might actually feel bad about your bullshit decision making if you actually sounded a little bit remorseful.

I might apologize, if I thought it would make any difference.

But as you say, your mind's made up. Would you prefer I not respect that decision?

I would prefer that you gave a shit about sending an attack dog after me.

I knew he wouldn't do any lasting damage.

That's not the point.

Then what is, Peter?

The point is that you sent somebody else to do something you should've been doing. He was practically asking to be-- I don't know. Stopped.

[ ...now that was interesting. ] I assure you I didn't know he had a death wish.

Well he sure as hell seemed like he had one. I'd expect someone to stop after the first blast. Not decide they were interested enough in another.

Some people simply don't know when to quit. Perhaps he was merely overconfident.

And what about next time? When he forgets how to back off when he should?

[ why do you always turn him into this person. ]

You expect there to be a next time?
