Like chill

[d33tached]

I am perfectly calm, I can assure you.

[heisenbitch]

[ Despite himself... Jesse lets out a small chuckle under his breath. But then, he sobers pensively. It's really not funny or amusing anymore that D33 doesn't get these things. ]

I mean chill as in hang out
Like grab a pizza, hang out, that kinda thing

[d33tached]

[...]

Why?

[heisenbitch]

No probs if you don't want to tho

[d33tached]

Why do you want to see me?

[Maybe this is about Jesse's memories. If so, D33 wishes he would just cut to the chase.]

Has something happened?

[heisenbitch]

[ Yes. Something has happened. Not that Jesse is going to be honest about that. Last thing he wants to to do is tell Dee that he knows extremely sensitive, traumatic shit about him. ]

Think we've been getting off on the wrong foot is all
Ive been a bit of an asshole cuz of stuff that's been happening
Trying to do the "be less of an asshole" thing

[d33tached]

[Now, that...isn't the response he's expecting. Could this be some form of bribery, perhaps? A trap with which to threaten D33 into silence? Surely he must know that something has occurred between the two of them...

[But D33 isn't eager to share that he knows extremely sensitive, traumatic shit about Jesse either. Even if it's not something that might seem particularly traumatic to him.

[It had certainly felt that way. Even now, D33 has a hard time shaking that sensation.]

You've done little to wrong me aside from your penchant for irritating behavior.

[He kind of makes it hard not to be an asshole, doesn't he?]

Naturally, I find it a bit strange, your sudden interest in "hanging out".

[heisenbitch]

Last thing Ive wanted to do is hang out with anybody since winding up in this place

[ Which is, in fact, true. Since winding up here, discovering he already had a whole life here, finding out shit about Mr. White, about himself, about everything? "Hanging out" has been the last thing on Jesse's mind. ]

It's cool if you don't wanna hang out tho
No pressure, just wanted to ask

[d33tached]

[There's a long pause while D33's brain tries to sort out exactly what the man's motive behind wanting to meet would be. It's not as if any of their prior interactions have been inherently threatening, but D33 hadn't had any personal insight into Jesse's life before two days ago either. It all just seems a little too sudden for him. Perhaps they had spoken during his amnesiac state and-- Well, he had been rather amicable during that time.]

Pardon me, Jesse, but I feel I must ask if this has anything to do with the events of this last week.

I do understand that there was quite a bit of confusion given the circumstances.

[It never occurs to D33, somehow, that Jesse might have picked up on some of his memories. Not yet, anyway.]

[heisenbitch]

Think "clusterfuck" would be a better way to describe it

[heisenbitch]

[ ...And then, oh yeah. He remembers Dee hates swearing. Not a detail he'd usually forget but his mind is pretty scattered, for a whole range of reasons. ]

Shit guess that's $1 for your swear jar I now owe

[heisenbitch]

Crap $2 now sorry

I love that you have at least three facepalm icons

[d33tached]

[Okay. Something is seriously wrong with this man. D33 can see that now.]

We aren't in the Café. I have no say in how you might choose to communicate elsewhere.

Have you been affected as well by these memory discrepancies?

he does it a lot on the show, so i figure i should mirror that somehow in icons :')

[heisenbitch]

Seems pretty much everyone has

[d33tached]

How so, then?

[heisenbitch]

Don't particularly wanna talk about it yo
Just wanna get pizza and chill
Put it outta my mind

[d33tached]

[Well, D33 can't very well blame him for that, especially given what he's seen of Jesse's memories. He's still a bit suspicious on that front - after all, he doesn't know quite how he'd react should he find out that someone had come into possession of his own.

[But surely that isn't the case here. The thought leaves D33's mind almost as quickly as it enters - he can't think that way. He can't acknowledge the fact that what he keeps locked in his mind doesn't stay there.

[This is why he doesn't hang out with telepaths.

[Either way, Jesse's approach does seem mild if not a bit strange. With all of the training D33 has been undergoing with Duo, surely he would be able to defend himself should worst come to worst.

[Pizza and chill. He can do that. Can't he?]

I suppose we can do that.

Where would you like me to meet you, then?

[He's bringing his knife.]

[heisenbitch]

I can come get you

[d33tached]

[Absolutely not.]

I will meet you.

Where?

[heisenbitch]

Depends where you are
Seriously not a problem to come get you in my car tho

[d33tached]

Where would you like me to meet you, Jesse?

[Just. This. Face.]

[heisenbitch]

[ He's trying to help a bro out here!! But okay, okay, it's not like Jesse can't understand D33's severe mistrust of everyone. Makes a lot of sense to him now, given what he saw of the guy's memories. He texts the address of a greasy pizza joint in downtown Heropa. ]

Meet you in 30?

> Action

[d33tached]

Very well.

[It takes him a bit longer than that - about forty-five minutes or so, half of which is spent considering not showing up. But, eventually, he arrives at the greasy little joint, ducks inside and begins glancing around for Pinkman.]

[heisenbitch]

[ Jesse is slouched at a table, seated sideways on the chair with his arm hooked over the back of it. His other hand resting on the table fidgets restlessly with a packet of sugar, tapping it, spinning it around, twirling it between his fingers. He's itching for a smoke. He's been waiting here for almost half an hour, unable to stop thinking about the shit he saw and felt from D33's life, and he wonders after a while if D33 is actually going to show up.

He's taken to gazing aimlessly around the pizza parlour, wondering if he should contact the guy again, and the moment he hears someone enter, he snaps his attention over to them - and abruptly sits straighter, alert, at seeing D33. ]

Hey. Yo. [ Dropping the sugar packet to the table to wave him over to the table.

Does Jesse look glad to see him? He just might, actually. ]
