Yeah, maybe. Healing's a pretty big one too. Anyway, I'm pretty sure he can't turn into a dog.

[infomodder]

[There is a question he would like to ask. However, it goes back to a conversation that Jesse did not have with him or Skye, which goes back into STALKER!!! territory, and...the less criminal, the better.]

Can't say I'm jealous. [I THINK I'M FUNNY] One more thing before I tailor this: the fight, he didn't seem to be under the impression there was something sexual on my end regarding you, did he?

[One bonus of his old career: asking the "invasive" questions is another day in the life. It's not his life here anymore (not yet), but this is something he can be unflappable about, in text or voice or video or sitting in the same damn room. If he has to approach this seen as some sort of threat in that way, too, he's going to need more than sixty seconds and a drink or two, so help him.

(No one help him.)]

[hackitude]

What? No. He's more worried you're going to kill me. I already told him that was ridiculous too, btw. I've been alone in your house now like every week for two months. If you were going to go all serial killer on me, you've already missed like a metric shitton of chances.

[infomodder]

[Well this makes more sense.

More horrible sense.]

We have this guy back where I'm from, he's like the height of serial killers. He's been at it for a really long time. He's good. He's just about perfect, honestly. Evaded us for a long time. Toyed with us. All of it. And he gets away with it time and again because he's smart. He knows what he's doing.
He wouldn't try any serial killer shit on you.

[Skye is untouchable.]

[hackitude]

What? ... Why's that?

Do you not realize how powerful you are?
Think about it. How many electronic devices of some kind, of any kind, are within reach of the regular person at any given moment.
Think about how difficult it would be to get someone who's technologically inclined out somewhere open, hoping that the risk of being able to hack nearby jets or whatever else might be in the area is not there.
Now think about how terrifying the idea of no matter how alone you might get this person, there is some government test for a prototype of something that is not intended to be a weapon but could be one in the right hands. Your hands. And that you, this great serial killer, meet your end because you pissed off the wrong person and the only nearby electronic wasn't some impressive battleship that could take down an entire state. It was a hover golf cart with special GPS features that let it run on its own and you took advantage of that.
There's a luck of the draw when it comes to you and the luck runs completely in your favor. No one wants to get caught. Even less caught for something that could potentially be downright embarrassing.

I hope you don't take that as me spending a lot of time thinking about killing you.

[infomodder]

I spent a lot of time thinking about killing in general. It's not personal.

[hackitude]

I... think... that was equal parts the sweetest and also creepiest thing anyone's ever said to me. ... Congrats.

[infomodder]

That's what they pay me for.

[It actually kind of is.]

Anyway I'm pretty sure I get the main problems now and can work with that. So how about we give it 5 days, a week, from now until I do anything? If I go mentioning it twelve hours after this talk, assuming you two had the fight not too long ago, that's fishy.

[hackitude]

I'm pretty sure it's going to be fishy either way, but sure, why not. Wait it out a few days if you want. Just don't forget.

[hackitude]

Also... thanks.

For saying all that about me, I mean. I'm not really used to people... having faith in my abilities, as a general rule. So... it means a lot to me, to hear that someone like you thinks I'm competent. ... Thanks.

[infomodder]

I don't forget anything. Opposite of a fish in that way.
Someone like me? A profiler? Free personality test courtesy an expert, so you know it's accurate?

[hackitude]

No, dumbass. Someone like you, as in, a competent adult who works for the FBI and stuff. Geez.

[infomodder]

[...what.]

Thanks to you too.
