Lost --

[ Is that what he calls losing control? Gladio frowns for a moment and folds his arms. ]

Well - you stopped, didn't you? I wouldn't call that a loss of control.

[threatenwithcuteness]

So... wait you weren't in a gang? I thought being in a gang was like the first part of the streets.

[franciscoramon]

You betcha.

Just don't blame me if we get fifteen minutes in and the TV explodes or you get called into the station because giant mushrooms are attacking or whatever fresh nonsense it's gonna be this time.

I mean do blame me because it's my curse but just don't be surprised.

[franciscoramon]

I'm not, I just fake it.

[ Wow, thanks a lot, honesty elevator. ]

[flowlikewater]

[ What he wants to say is some explanation on his training to have perfect self control but what comes out— ]

I did not want to risk hurting you.

[franciscoramon]

Wow, that's pretty messed up.

[ Okay he would have liked to put that more delicately but apparently that's not gonna happen right now. ]

Does he do that a lot? Erase people's memories?

[threatenwithcuteness]

That's a little specific for stress graying.

Unless you're, like, really old.

[threatenwithcuteness]

Just nice?

Nothing else?

*She's still teasing mostly because he's blushing too much for that to be the end of that.*

[causational]

Okay. Well. I'm gonna set up a backup generator, a spare TV, and turn my phone off, and we are gonna watch that thing.

[relieable]

[an easy question! Osomatsu laughs]

Yeah, all the time! Especially when I was younger. We all did it to mess around with our teachers.

[relieable]

[what...]

Do I look like a ladies' man to you? [ah, that totally came out wrong. actually, it shouldn't have come out at all!] I've never courted any woman. I'm a virgin.

[CRAP. STOP SAYING THINGS]

[relieable]

[that's a loaded question, but Osomatsu laughs it off]

Oh, man. It's intense. Sometimes, I hate it, but most of the time, I really like being surrounded by the people I love. Sure, they're annoying a lot of times. Everyone's got their quirks. [a shrug] But if I didn't have them, I'd be a lonely mess.

[he totally didn't need to say that last part, but he did. too late to go back!]

[leatherdaddy]

[ Gladio wants to say 'your concern is touching', but he can't. Because it's not, or at least not so much as to make up for the disappointment he felt. ]

I'm tougher than I look, Genji. Just how were you gonna do that?

[flowlikewater]

I know you're strong Gladio, it isn't that. [ He's frowning deeply. ] If I had continued then I would have felt like I was taking advantage of you.

[leatherdaddy]

[ Gladio bursts out laughing. ]

Advantage? I can put the brakes on just fine on my own.

Truthfully, I'm a little disappointed.

[alchemyfreak]

[He nods at Cisco's words, because he could relate completely. The longer he was gone though, the less reasons he could think of to want to go back.]

My brother's here, I can't exactly tell him I'd rather be in my own personal hell than our home. Purgatorium is not... The best place to live.

[Understatement of the century.]

[hititwithacrowbar]

Nope, I mean some would argue I am simply because I get kickbacks from some of the major brass of Gotham for protection, and whats the Red Hood Gang without the Red Hood? But no, I was never in a gang myself.

[ Opps. Stupid honesty... ]

Not a street gang anyway, I've been on teams that could be considered as such, simply because everyone a villain to someone.

[threatenwithcuteness]

...Nothing about that is something I want to ask about, is it?

*Lola's not fully informed on this backstory. However every word she got out of that painted the ugliest and least fun picture imaginable. Because she can't imagine a bag full of heads.*

But... you're still a good guy, right?

[spellslots]

Macarons cause when I get 'em right it's real satisfying, and at this point they remind me of the stupid kid and I kinda miss him-- fuck.

[stupid truth elevator]

[hititwithacrowbar]

I'm going to go with no.

[ He scratched his cheek a second before shrugging some.]

Depends on who you ask. I think I am. I'm a necessary evil. I do what the heroes wont, and it saves lives even if it costs some scum theirs.

Good and bad are points of view, the worlds not a grey place, Lola.

[umbrastaff]

That's the biggest bunch of bullshit I've ever heard. You really believe that?

[deathkid]

You said once that you get nightmares too. What are they about?

[krasnaya_vdova]

Things that I don't think you don't really want to know. Who I am, what I was to the Natasha I knew.

[Worst. Elevator. Ever.]

[ragnarsson]

So.

[Most awkward elevator ride ever.]

How did you get the scars on your face?

[franciscoramon]

Alright, you're on. Let's do this. Break the curse.

Also, forgot to say this before but Point Break is CHOICE.
