dude you switched up your username it's funny i like it
ok good i'm worried too about both of you after what she told me and all the stuff that happened with me and Varian i thought Maul was past this but i don't know how anyone can trust him right now
Oh yeah I figured it was time for something more interesting than my initials
( It's taken him almost three years, counting Deerington, but Peter's finally learned how to Have Some Fun with things like that..... )
As weird as this feels to say aloud, I don't think he'll try to target me, at least. Hopefully. He told Paimon he wanted to protect us now?? I don't really get why, but... at least that's something.
But Luna... he hates her. He offered her some creepy deal she didn't take him up on, so now I'm I'm really scared he's going to come for her. And with no curse holding him back, what's stopping him from doing whatever he wants to her?
( Peter's literally sick about it. Maul's implications of torturing someone on the network won't leave his mind, as well as the experience he'd had of the sith lord fucking with his head that time. )
ha ha that's why i changed mine, too sometimes you just to put yourself out there with a funny username
it is, if he isn't just being a big liar supposedly he cares about Varian and me but that didn't stop him from hurting us and right now he looks like he's in the mood to hurt people
i don't know what to do either maybe keep an eye on her and let me know if something's off i want to try and make sure he doesn't hurt either of you
I'm sorry, man. I know you guys are really close with him. I don't know how to... deal with someone like that.
( A weighted pause — Peter hesitating for a moment. )
My mom wasn't as bad as him, but she could still be scary too Like the kind of scary you can't trust because you never know when she'll go off on somebody Or what she might do next. And it seemed to get worse each time She'd say she was sorry but she didn't stop it. Eventually I just wished she'd stop saying sorry at all.
[.... Oh. Oh geez, can he ever relate to what Peter has sent him.]
aw man, i'm sorry you had to deal with that it couldn't have been easy i think i might know what you're talking about, sort of my dad is like this too says stuff so you'll trust him, but he's only interested in using you as soon as he's done with you he's out of there, he doesn't actually care at all sorrys mean nothing from him
I'm sorry you had to deal with that, too. Your dad sounds like a major jerk. What kind of person could just leave their kid?
This whole thing with Maul must be bringing up a lot of difficult shit for you. Do you think you're going to try to talk to him? I wouldn't blame you if you didn't want to And you shouldn't have to at all
negligent dillweed's a good term for it you're supposed to take care of a kid and protect them it's not fair
( Maybe "fair" is a childish word to bring into it, but it's how Peter feels. It's not fair. His mom fucked him up. He can see the ways she had, see what she did to him. And he knows it's complicated, knows there's a lot to it — there were ways she tried really hard, too. But that doesn't counter what she did to hurt him and his sister. There are things he'll never forgive her for. )
I don't think it will either Luna showed me what he said to her. He sounded like he hated her I've seen what he does to people he hates I just feel so helpless. Paimon will try protect her, but you know how Luna is. She won't back down. If Maul comes for her, she'll take him on I'm so scared what he'd do
it really isn't parents are supposed to be good and love their kids not act like the jerks we got stuck with
[He knows what that fear is like, and he knows what Maul can do - he saw him kill Varian, after all.]
i am too the guy is nuts and i wish i was strong enough to be able to tell you that it's ok, if he tries to hurt Luna i'll kick his butt straight back into the ocean i don't know just know you aren't alone and that there are people here who can stop him if it gets to that
thanks, man It does help to know we have so many people who could help She and Usagi put up some kind of special wards on the house, so hopefully it's.. safe. Me and Paimon are staying on guard, too
( He's been really working with the demon for the first time in his life. It's... strange and uncomfortable, but Peter knows what's more important is Luna's safety. If that means getting closer to the demon, then he's going to do it.
There's something else, too. )
I heard you um That you died
I'm sorry. I heard death works differently here than in Deerington

the kind of person who you look at and go 'hey maybe this person shouldn't have kids'
i don't know
i want to
at least yell at him for messing with you and Luna and Usagi and Varian
i don't think it'll do much though
