I know I owe you a lot of explanations. Mostly about the whole "no touching" thing.

I've been a proper bitch about it, but I'm just scared about too many people knowing. A lot of shit goes down whenever someone does touch me, so it's not exactly a pleasant topic. ...Actually, we never really talked about The Storm outside our little shithead group back in Wertham. Skeletons in the closet and all; guess old habits die hard.

Wot I'm trying to say is... you deserve to know.

[He's definitely blushing, st that. Coming from Alisha, that's pretty high praise. She doesn't seem to be free with the compliments, generally.]

Well. I won't hold it against you, and I won't tell anyone. It's your business, not theirs. Hearing all that, I'm glad it was me, too.

Is he really a creep? These people are supposed to be your friends, right?

[That's because she isn't; when she does hand out compliments, it's usually begrudgingly. Enjoy it while you can, Connor.]

Like I said, you're a good person.

And yeah, he is. Guess I might have used "friends" a bit liberally. We were all in the same ASBO group, and we all went through a bunch of storm-shit together, yeah. But I'm not close with Simon. Like, at all.

[ASBO. He's pretty sure she explained that before. He nods, though he doesn't quite understand.]

I've been told that going through hard times together can make people closer. I wouldn't really know. But it sounds like they're important to you, at least some.

Is it Simon that keeps telling you you're close? Maybe he just likes you.

Yeah, pretty sure killing and burying our probation workers did the trick. [Wait. Fuck. That sounds awful without context. Quickly:] First one tried to kill us, second one tried to rat us out and Simon accidentally killed her. Well, supposedly accidental. Just for the record.

[Whew.]

And no, he hasn't... oddly enough. I'm pretty sure he's wanked over me in the past, but that's about it. All he's said here is that things are complicated and we have to talk; dunno exactly wot about yet. Rudy's actually the one who has mentioned it a couple times. Then again, he's also the one who told Nathan that we replaced him, which is bullshit; we couldn't get rid of him if we tried. So... I honestly don't know wot the fuck is going on with all of that.
