[Well, fuck. He really doesn't want to answer this question.]

This isn't the first time I've seen my bro die.

[Not exactly a straight answer.]

[cyan_maid]

The bro from your version of things?

[She'll get one out of you so help her]

[ironicoolly]

Yeah. He died fighting Jack.

[cyan_maid]

I see.

But...Dirk isn't that brother. He and you are related, yes, but neither of you are exactly the same to the person you both knew. Don't you think it's worth trying to talk to him about this stuff, and seeing where it goes?

[ironicoolly]

I want to.

[God, does he ever. But he's afraid.]

Don't think the feeling's mutual.

[cyan_maid]

I think you should try. You'll never know unless you do, right?

[ironicoolly]

I don't want him to hate me.

[But maybe he already does.]

How long has he had empathy powers.

[cyan_maid]

If he does, I'm going to smack him so hard. But I doubt he will.

They came with his gem. I...kind of overloaded him with he first arrived.

[ironicoolly]

I figured that might be possible. It's probably best I stay away from him so he isn't constantly being hit with a whole ensemble of residual feelings I've got no business attributing to him.

Like you said, he's not really Bro.

[cyan_maid]

[Ugh, Striders. Why was this a thing with you boys?]

But...that should be a good thing. Right? You can get to know him, and the feelings you have, they should pull back once you've got it straight in your heart, shouldn't they?

[ironicoolly]

I don't know. What if... I don't like what I find.

What does he think of me?

[Even just asking Jane makes him anxious and nervous as shit.]

[cyan_maid]

It's going to stay a 'what if' unless you actually take that step and find out. Better to have loved and lost, as they say.

[Aaaugh. She...doesn't know if she can really go into that. It's Dirk's personal business. But...]

I think he thinks you're alright. I'm not sure - it's hard to get a read on him. He's...convinced of some things about himself, and that's preoccupying his mind.
