_“ Hey, it's me. Wait for the thing. _”

[hostage]

Yeah, I'm fine. Sick. I'll get over it.

[payback]

[Still staring, not wholly bought off by that but taking it for now.]

That tattoo...

[hostage]

What about it?

[payback]

Did you seriously do that? Was that a real thing?

[hostage]

[He rolls his eyes.]

Jesus, you're still worried about that thing? It was fake. Obviously.

[payback]

Well I wasn't sure! But good!

[hostage]

You seriously think I'm that much of a douchebag?

[payback]

It did seem pretty mean for you but he did want to send you to jail.

[hostage]

Well, yeah, but I belong in jail, so I can't exactly blame the guy.

[payback]

Wait, did you kill the guy?

[hostage]

No. Ugh, nevermind.

[payback]

Oh no. You explain yourself.

[hostage]

You ain't figured it out by now?

[payback]

I want to hear it from you.

[hostage]

What do you wanna hear? "I'm a criminal?" There you go.

[payback]

Well what did you do?

[hostage]

I'm a drug lord. What do you think?

[payback]

Ughhhh. [She has so little frame of reference for that, except from the Port. Rin paces in a jerky circle and rubs her hands over her face.]

Well then he should've sent you to jail for being a drug lord, not for killing some guy.

[hostage]

Well, whatever. I beat him at the game, anyway. For now.

[payback]

What! What are you expecting to happen here?!

[hostage]

What? He said he'd get me someday. I mean, I doubt it, but...

[payback]

So what's your plan here?

[hostage]

Plan?

[payback]

Yeah. Do you have a plan? What are you going to do?

[hostage]

Uh, no? Nothing. I dunno.
