isn't the plan working a little too well?

( —like no one has brought up the fact that he can't possibly be dead after lehnsherr's resurrection, right? )

i'm paying out the ass for it so it better fucking be.

[ Okay, dial it back … ]

it's a good thing, right? one more week without a target on your back.
because everyone thinks your back is a corpse.

[behavioural]

paying out the ass for it?

how?

( ??? )

turns out the house (or whatever the fuck is running this game) is a stick in the mud. break the rules, you get

well, i got the sudden ability to hear all the spirits in this stupid house, and not any useful ones. just BLAH BLAH BLAH every minute of every hour of the day, like i don't have better shit to do.

you don't happen to have headphones here, do you?

i know a little bit about communing with spirits ( as in, he spent most of his life interacting with the ghosties. )
and blocking them out
i'll swing by your room in a bit
even if i can't completely silence them, i might be able to at least quiet them down

were you the only one punished?

[breeding]

seriously?? you're a lifesaver.
no pun intended.

i wasn't. set got a yellow card, too.
i'll fill you in when you're here.

( set too? well, he definitely can't postpone this update now, can he?

it barely takes any time after he finishes reading that text to teleport straight into homelander's bedroom. )

Is that why he's in a bitchier mood than usual?

[ Pierce's entrance gets a double-take, like it initially makes sense for Pierce to have answered his summons so quickly before he thinks through the implications of someone literally being able to teleport wherever they want. Handy — handier than speed, in a way. Still, the surprise on Homelander's features doesn't last long — they have more important things to discuss. ]

I would be, too, if I were in his shoes. I mean, I am now, too, with all this voice bullshit, but get this—

—he's got a fucking clown nose.

NOT HERE.
