blap_blap: (This is the song the caged bird sings)

Around 11/26ish

[Tim can't put off going back to the house forever. He has to go and probably talk to Jack-- he wouldn't say that he'd expect Jack to be worried about him, but he's sure that he'll want to know what the hell happened to him for the past week or so. It'll be easy enough to explain, at least, since the shit that went on with the poachers was common knowledge. He just wasn't sure what Jack's reaction to his kidnapping and injuries would be. Sometimes Jack didn't seem to give much of a shit about his wellbeing, and other times he was weirdly protective.]

[So, crapshoot. He hoped that Jack didn't get weird about his safety after this, though, it would make it a lot harder to go out with Majima.]

[Tim opened the door in the afternoon and walked inside. Amazing how much you took having arms and hands for granted until you didn't anymore.]

Uh... Jack? Are you home?
thedifferencebetween: (holy fuck)

[personal profile] thedifferencebetween 2019-12-17 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
Holy fuck, where the shit have you been???

[Jack is indeed home. And he has noticed the lack of his roommate, once he got back home. He'd spent a good chunk of time barricaded in his lab with Lu. Which he still thinks was the best plan, with everything he's heard since coming back. But the lack of Tim has been weird.]

[He jumps up from the couch when Tim comes in, thumping loudly as his feet hit the floor.]

Did you die?
blap_blap: (And we're all not here for nothing)

[personal profile] blap_blap 2019-12-17 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh, good, Jack's home.]

Uh, no, but you're not super far off?

[He probably should've been dead! But he wasn't allowed to have the sweet release of death after his stay at Poacher Hotel, he got to live through the awful, gory aftermath.]

I, um... the poachers got to me.
thedifferencebetween: (this is my sad face)

[personal profile] thedifferencebetween 2019-12-17 03:32 am (UTC)(link)
Ew. I was afraid of that.

[Mentally Jack pulls a face at the thought. Whatever his roomie had gone through, he knows it was awful and gross and he probably doesn't want to hear the details. Sucks to be Tim!]

Ya look fine now, though....?

[As far as Jack can tell, anyway. All parts appear to be present.]
blap_blap: (Til my troubles got trouble with me)

[personal profile] blap_blap 2019-12-18 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, everything came back when the fog rolled in.

[Which was good, but also everything came back in the worst possible way, so it was also bad. Just like everything on this stupid monster peninsula, whenever you thought you got something good, it had to find some way to be shitty, too.]

I guess you made it through okay? Things got kinda dicey.

[Understatement of the year award goes to Tim.]
thedifferencebetween: (this is my sad face)

[personal profile] thedifferencebetween 2019-12-19 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
Wow, that...that sucks. Sorry, buddy. But hey, it's all over, you're in one piece, there's booze in the fridge still.

[It's as much sympathy as he's getting from Jack, but it's still more than most people would get.]

Yeah, I grabbed my girlfriend and we barricaded ourselves in my lab. After we each made sure we were who we looked like and everything. Couldn't trust anybody...

[As though he's a trusting person in the first place. But at least you could usually assume somebody was who they looked like.]

[personal profile] blap_blap 2019-12-20 04:36 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, uh, I'm probably gonna need some of that.

[Did he have an unhealthy relationship with alcohol? Probably. But he also got his arms cut off and kidneys taken out by poachers, so like, fuck it. His beef liver could probably take it, and it wasn't like he needed to drink much anymore.]

[Tim went into the kitchen to get himself a drink. Might as well fill Jack in on everything that went down during the Bad Times at the Poacher Hotel.]

That wasn't a bad idea? [Seriously, if Tim had known that he would get bull-napped, he would've gone to ground, too.] The, the poachers got a lot of people. Nobody's really sure why they decided to amp things up this quick, but, uh. There was a note they left behind, in code? It had an address and a date in February on it.
thedifferencebetween: (that sounds like something not true)

[personal profile] thedifferencebetween 2019-12-22 10:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course it wasn't a bad idea, it was a good idea. Since, ya know. I wasn't nabbed by poachers and neither was she.

[He goes back to the couch, satisfied that his roommate isn't in one of those states where he needs comfort or attention. Jack hates those.]

But yeah, okay, that sounds normal. What, do they have some quota to make? Must collect this many monster parts before the new year? You better not get nabbed again, I'm gonna be pissed if you do.

[Old Timmy here's all Jack's really got left from home. And sure, the guy technically doesn't work for him anymore, but he still feels a certain sort of...he likes to think of it as responsibility when it comes to his former doppelganger. All that money he'd put into him, all the time, the dude is literally made in his image. Most people would use the term 'ownership', but Jack sees the world how Jack sees the world.]
