[ There's an irony here. After all, if the situation was any different, Fabian wouldn't have minded hearing this from Gorgug. If anything, it'd be.. kind of nice. Not that he wants the other to have to get violent or anything, but just hearing this feels like a validation of the things Fabian has been feeling this entire time, the things he's been screaming about for months, with no one ever fully understanding him.
And the one time the understanding comes, it just has to be like this.
It leaves him quiet for a moment, looking for words, but then he slowly speaks again. ]
You hurt the others. [ Riz, Krouse. Those are the confirmed cases Fabian has got, but he doubts that it was contained to just them. They're just the only ones who'd contact Fabian about it. ] I bet they didn't even attack you first.
[ Krouse is nicer than he likes to claim to be. And Riz is-- Well, Riz is usually a whole lot more likely to shoot first, but Fabian knows that wouldn't be the case when this is Gorgug they're dealing with.
That's the thing, isn't it? Sure, he and Gorgug did fight before, but that's because Fabian approached the situation a whole lot more physically and aggressively than he thinks either of them did. ]
Why aren't you hurting me?
[ Did Gorgug try this with them too? Is that it?
Or does he just think Fabian is more likely to crumble over this than any physical fight? ]
