[ it's been... a day. everyone is pretty stressed out after the morning, but there is one person steph is concerned about. a lot of the people here seemed to be used to violence in some form, but she knows that there are others who are a little more... normal. ]

Evan?

...I'm, um, really glad you got better. That sounds... really scary. I-I can't imagine what I would do if something like that happened to me.

[His tone is sincere, too; it's easy to tell he's still concerned about what might have happened to her.]

[vigilantics]

I hope you don't. You really don't deserve any of that, Evan.

[Somehow, that makes a small smile tug at the edges of his mouth.]

T-To be fair, I don't think I, um, know the right kind of people to accidentally start a gang war. So I don't really h-have to worry about that, at least.

[vigilantics]

[ and that makes her laugh. ]

You're already on the right path then. Gangsters are the worst at parties.

[There's a nervous laugh of his own in response.]

They don't seem like they'd be v-very good conversationalists.

[vigilantics]

Oh man, they're the worst. Imagine trying to ask one of them to borrow a dollar to get something from a vending machine?

[selfinserting]

I-I can't actually tell if you're joking or if that happened to you. But either way, um, it sounds rough.

[vigilantics]

... it was a joke, but honestly, it sounds like something that could happen.

[selfinserting]

[Another small smile, nodding.]

W-Well, um, I hope you never have to ask a gangster to borrow a dollar, then.
