I think everything that needs to get said about the breach has been pretty well covered, and while I'm not really complaining about getting to say I've officially sort of lived through that part of history? I'm definitely not complaining about this not being a once a month thing.

[Not. Addressing. Gun issues. >>;]

[Friends Filter - if you think you're on it, you're on it.]

How's everyone doing?

[Private to Kon and Molly]

So, do breach marriages count? [Amuuuused.]

[Private to Miss Parker]

I know it wasn't... exactly us, but I'm sorry we didn't get him before he attacked you. Honestly.

If there's anything I can do... let me know?

[Private to Jason]

[After like 9000 revisions being like OH GOD WHAT wait no should I even say anything, you're getting this:]

Jason, I know that wasn't technically us, but I'm... really sorry about what happened. Seriously, you know I'd never -

Are you doing okay?

[Private to Jim; after his conversation with Hoffman]

How do you feel about getting drunk?

Maybe you should catch up on your history of the American west.

[He doesn't break his gaze. Then he sounds righteous-defensive]

I am not that man.

So?

[He still sounds defensive] for someone who claims to be so righteous you have a hell of a time understanding.

Maybe I had a hard time in that breach...port thing. Ever think of that?

You mean you're having a hard time coping with it?

[Pause]

You really hate me don't you.

[He thinks he's found a point now-so he is going to dig. ]

Completely unwilling to se that I have feelings. Wen you're supposed to protect and serve.

What do you want, Hoffman?

[To watch you squirm. To remind you that the potential to be a monster is always there.]

To find out how it felt. [He smiles a knowing smile]

Doing justice.

And, what are you hoping to hear, exactly?

Truth is the only honest policy.

You talked to my counterpart. He didn't enjoy killing, and he didn't like hurting people either, but if that was the only option in the interest of the greater good? It was the option he was forced to take with the tools and training he had.

How many people have you killed, Hoffman?

[Hard] the question that you never seem to ask-that no one asks-is how many peole. I've enjoyed killing.

So, how many?

Three.

The man who murdered my sister, the woman who tried to kill me, and the bitch who would have ruined my life.

[You're a lying liar who lies. C:]

You told me you murdered your entire precinct. One of the only people you didn't kill was Fisk, who I reminded you of.

...I meant people I enjoyed killing. People I wanted to die, people who needed [there's a hint of anger] to be removed from existence.

The rest got in the way. My team-

[He doesn't want to talk about them]

.th rest ere casualties.

They're not casualties. They're still people you murdered, Hoffman.

[His facade is beginning to crack] I warned that-

I warned Gibson togive me what I wanted. Hevmurdered them. I warned him. Fisk would have played ball.

So, because someone didn't give you what you wanted, you murdered people. I don't care what those people did, Hoffman, they had just as much right to live as you did, and you took that away from them because it was in your best interest.

[His eyes flash] we're getting of the subject. It was all on Gibson.you weren't there-you don't know the facts.

There is no way I'm condoning murder. I don't care what Gibson did or didn't do.

And yet you shot. Me.

If that person in the breach wasn't you? The person who shot him wasn't me. You can't have it both ways, Hoffman.

[Goddammit.]

So it doesn't bother you at

No. [Well, it does. But he's an extremely gifted liar.] Especially because my counterpart shot yours in the shoulder. He wasn't aiming to kill you and he wouldn't have if he had the chance, which he did.
