For a time, there was no reply. Not because Kostya was ignoring Mark, but because... Because... Well. He hadn't known that any of them were involved. Especially Rep, given his husband status. zoobey To: Mark From: K Bashmet I see. Some more time, as he went to make himself a cup of coffee. Interacting with Mark generally ended poorly for everyone involved. Everyone. And now that he'd been texted not once, not twice, but thrice? Now he was roped into it too. zoobey To: Mark From: K Bashmet Would you like...a drink? A hug might be offered from someone normal to someone normal, but... For Kostya, physical contact was still Untoward in most cases. For Mark, it was more that he was a walking, talking, breathing, reeking biohazard. zoobey To: Mark From: K Bashmet Can leave one somewhere.

lizbot Text from MARK THE AWESOMENATOR chekov doesn't want us to break up unstartled witch Text from Mark: Yeah can you just leave a six pack by my lair I'll come pick it up....... maybe we could even talk... or something.......... unstartled witch Text from Mark: together.......... There were an extremely unhealthy amount of ellipses in those texts. Maybe Mark was genuinely sad about the whole affair.

Zoobey To: Mark From: K Bashmet No. I will bring vodka, two bottle. I am generous. At the notion of talking to Mark, a pained expression crossed Kostya's face. One that, once upon a time, America had deemed his "lemon face". It didn't help his mood. Zoobey To: Mark From: K Bashmet Fine. He went to his bunker's small kitchenette-- the whole ordeal was much smaller than before, and somehow even more spartan-- and collected two six Zoobey To: Mark From: K Bashmet No touching. On way. Not too long after that, he was approaching what many people called: The Lair. "Mark," he said, flat. "I am here." The clink of bottles in his hand was a tell that he hadn't, in fact, been lying.

Since there were absolutely no actual lights turned on, the Lair just looked like a giant pile of scrap metal computer parts and the occasional blinking light. It was nearly impossible to locate Mark, save for the extremely subtle tap-taps of a fake digital phone being typed at.
"Oh good," Mark began, "you're the only backup I have." He paused. "Are you related to Lucky by any chance?" He could check, but that was effort.
lizbot Text from MARK THE AWESOMENATOR No WE'RE breaking up lizbot Text from MARK THE AWESOMENATOR me and Lucky and Rep and maybe gale?? lizbot Text from MARK THE AWESOMENATOR Chekov's my backup

zoobey text from D3PO Why do you have such bad taste in human beings? Is it because everyone next to your boss looks nice and sane by comparison?

Kostya craned his neck, trying to see where Mark was hiding. He was unsure if he wanted to step over the threshold into the unknown. But, he had gone through a double break-up, Kostya supposed, and frowned. zoobey To: Mark From: K. Bashmet Cannot see you. Wave hand. Another text came in before he had a chance to try and find him through some sort of unfortunate echolocation. molten tigrex To: Unlucky From: K. Bashmet No. He inform of "break up".

A single hand stuck up from the junk pile and gave Kostya a thumbs up. If he was squinting very carefully, he could just make the bare outlines of Mark's shape on top of one of the piles. Or mostly on top.
"You can just place the bottles here." he said rather sullenly, looking back at Kostya's general direction again, "Have you ever tried to make someone happy by doing something you know will probably end badly but you do it and then it ends badly and then you are all alone?"lizbot Text from MARK THE AWESOMENATOR look all i wanted to do was have some run and rp maybe and do some tags and play games and enjoy myself bro code man, you don't break the bro code lizbot Text from MARK THE AWESOMENATOR I had to listen to rep yell at me for like, two hours, it was terrible lizbot Text from MARK THE AWESOMENATOR and lucky said "okay"

zoobey text from: Dwight Yin Caroline is okay. She's really nice and does low key mom stuff at people. Quote: text from: Dwight Yin The Caelius s**t is really weird. But maybe it's some sort of submission and getting beaten kink. Too bad he only likes The Blondes. A few minutes later, there's a voice behind Kostya. "You're more than my bro, bro. You're like a brother to me." There is a distinct break in Dwight's voice as he speaks.

And from the pile of stuff rose Mark, a little slowly at first since he couldn't dislodge his feet from several cords heavily engaged in reenacting a base model of string theory. He tripped over several more things before finally extracting himself from the mass.
"You're my brother too bro. You deserve the very best, you know that right." Mark began to sniffle loudly, rubbing his nose with an even dirtier sleeve. "I'm sorry I didn't invite you to the sexy threesome with Caroline I don't know what I was thinking you're my number one choice always okay. And I'm sorry about the whole homo Lucky Rep and Caelius thing, I really don't want to work in the office when they're busy staring into each others eyes but a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do to save his own skin. And I'm sorry about all those tags I didn't do I thought it was your turn but it was actually my turn and I totally forgot and it was entirely my fault."
Mark took one of Kostya's vodka bottles and offered it to Dwight. "Truce bro, the truest truce. Family first."
