Nope! I was the boss of our group. We did our own stuff.

[Stealing. They were bandits. They robbed rich people and got drunk off the riches.]

[dropoffs]

Your own business, is it? Or should I say syndicate.

[ Bradley's profile is really right there, but who knows. You can be a mafia boss and have a "reputable" company as a front. ]

[perfectpower]

Nah, it wasn't as big as a syndicate. It was just me 'n the guys.

[His merry band of bandits.]

[dropoffs]

Friends?

[ Do north wizards know what that is? ]

[perfectpower]

Some of 'em, I guess. But in the early days a lot of 'em were my brothers 'n sisters.

[dropoffs]

But you wouldn't consider them your family anymore?

[ Is that how it works. ]

[perfectpower]

[lmao]

No, I do. They're just all dead now.

[dropoffs]

I'm sorry to hear that, Mister Bain...

[ :( ]

You have been surviving well enough without them?

[perfectpower]

Oh yeah, it's fine. They were all humans, so they each lived a long human life. It's just that a human's lifespan is nothing compared to a wizard's.

[dropoffs]

Ah... I hope their lives were very fulfilling.

If you don't mind, I would love to hear more about them.

[ As a story. ]

[perfectpower]

[He honestly doesn't know if he minds or not. He doesn't usually think too deeply about his family or his past.]

I don't mind. I should start off with the fact that they were all my half-siblings though. Our dad got around a lot. He was a wizard, and he wanted to have a witch or a wizard for a kid. So I guess he just kept going, until I showed that I have magic.

[dropoffs]

[ Well, he can decide what he minds or not. ]

I see... I suppose he got what he wanted. [ At What Cost? ] Was he a present figure in your lives?

[perfectpower]

Not really. I barely remember seeing him much in those early days. Once I was an adult me 'n my siblings were already runnin' around in our gang doin' our own thing.

[Stealing from rich people, he means.]

Eventually I became the leader, even though most of my siblings were older. Guess I just had a natural talent for it.

[dropoffs]

[ They chuckle at that. ]

Some are born great leader and some must step up to the plate... I think that difference can be seen between Ganymede and Metis. I suppose you're more similar to Ganymede in that respect.

[perfectpower]

Right, Space Leader! I guess we do have a lot in common. So I guess Space Tiny got more technical training to be a leader?

[dropoffs]

I'm glad you and Ganymede get a long. They could use some distractions from work. That is my read on Metis, yes.

... I suppose they can use distractions from work.

[perfectpower]

Well I'll see what I can do about that. Neither of 'em answered my call for poker players, so.

[dropoffs]

Which supports what I said, doesn't it.

[ They chuckle a bit. WHAT'S IT LIKE TO BE PROVEN RIGHT!!! ]

[perfectpower]

Ha! I guess it does, doesn't it? I'll have to drag 'em out next time.
