[ Brig gives a nod, with a look on his face that he is absorbing the advice whole-heartedly ] I wouldn't go as far as heartbroken. [ He chuckles softly ]
It's just that it felt a bit so abrupt how she suddenly seemed so distant. [ He sighs ] Cause those talks did matter.
They [ a beat ] got me thinking about a lot of things. I just don't want to have offended her or anything.
I think you'd know if you offended her. And if the conversations you had mattered to you, then isn't that what counts? People. Conversations.
[He stands and balances himself, needing to stretch out.]
While it's not the same, Nico and I had to go through a lot before things settled. You'll go through that too when the right time and the right person comes along. [Pause, backtrack.] Not that I think Kasumi-san would be bad at all... It's just... [Shrug.]
[He spots guards looking up at them. Hm. That could be bad.]
That said, I think we've overstayed our welcome. How's about we take the normal way down and find ourselves some food. All that running made me hungry.
Still, thanks. I haven't had many friends in a long, long time.
[ He pulls out his phone and clicks open a bookmark. He forwards it to Kaz's number. ]
Big Fernand? [ It's a burger joint that's known to be "A brilliant little burger joint, which takes the traditional American burger and gives it the French terroir treatment." ]
[ He steps off the ledge and kills his cigarette ] You know, I'm pretty sure you won't be screaming when you do that next time we have one of these again. More like victorious shouting like Jack from "Titanic".

[That, and he wants to save that sort of thing for next time. He has a feeling talks like this will happen more often between himself and Brigade.]

Welp, we should go. I don't think they're gonna climb up here or anything, but I don't want them to send up a Helicopter either. Which way down?
