Yeah.

He'll get the fuck over it.

You can't please everyone! Or anyone at this rate.

And I don't give a shit if I do or not.

Not like I can trust them to do anything.

[There's the sound of thoughtful tapping of a fan against his hand.]

Did you get hurt?

Eh, nothing serious. Banged my head when she pinned me, but no concussion or anything. Bruised up my arm.

Sounds messy, my friend.

It was fine. Don't worry.

Are they saying anything interesting?

Everyone’s wondering why you’d do it, though fortunately your target has a bit of a reputation on the Barge.

You did take a hit in popularity by roping in the bystander.

Fuck that. I'm not going for prom king.

Popularity doesn't matter to me. That ain't the point.

[He doesn't know what that is, Aaron!]

I didn't think you cared, but it does matter. Your reputation always matters.

You think that I can't pull off the bullshit that I do without factoring in reputation?

Oh, don't get me wrong, Aaron! I'm impressed by what you do, very impressed!

It's just different, and different is sometimes difficult to understand.

Yeah, well, I didn't do this for as long as you did. And I don't try and make other people do shit.

I just - don't like getting in trouble when shit needs to be taken care of.
