( Emma Swan. Bellamy and her do share. He pushes away a decidedly NSFW thought about sharing as he opens the conversation and taps a finger to the message box. )

I never shared this much with my ex. Did he tell you we drank together? He's not a very good influence, Emma.

[sheriffing]

[ she loves the guy, of course they share. as for the other way, well - it was just the one time. ]

Bellamy isn't an ex. Besides, you came by looking for me.

I didn't realize you were looking for a role model here.

[illtempered]

( Jackson bets it won't be the only. Not something he should be thinking about. Emma you found yourself a piece. )

I'm not. I tend to BE the role model.

Ethan is only an ex because he's not here. I'm not delusional enough to keep hope alive, and I don't wish this on anyone. Before coming here, we were in danger. I know we got through it. But, that doesn't matter because it's not me. I'm here. Meeting your not-ex, who, is very inspirational.

[sheriffing]

I don't think not being here makes him an ex unless you want it to. You'll have to work that out when you get home.

My partner. He's my partner.

[illtempered]

Fine. Then he's my not-ex. I can consider our relationship on hold.

So, the straights are co-opting queer language here, too. Good to know things are consistent across all realms.

( He's actually being cheeky, which means that for all intents and purposes he likes Emma and Bellamy. Or, at the very least he can stand them. Maybe he'll gain respect for them.

But he can't help how Emma will take it and he's not about to preface anything after the fact. Or, justify. He said what he said. Dealwithit.gif. )

[sheriffing]

I never said I was straight.

[ she has to laugh at his point and his assumption. this city's a nightmare, but she's found herself drawn to a lot of people here, and she's never bothered to worry about anything beyond it feeling right.]

Bellamy's from space, our timelines couldn't be much farther apart. We'll only have this here.

[illtempered]

He's from space.

[sheriffing]

That was my line.

[illtempered]

And that's not where he traveled, or trained to travel to, but, he's from space. Originally. He was born in space.

Is he an alien?

[sheriffing]

You know he's human. You probably smelled him.

He grew up on a space station after a nuclear apocalypse.

[illtempered]

Aliens could smell human. I wouldn't know. Aliens are capable of a lot. They're. Aliens.

( Can't they look like humans when they want? Don't they? )

He wins for most insane story. Does he have radiation poisoning? He's not dying, is he

( The funny thing is, he's not concerned. He just wants to know if he shouldn't drink in proximity to the dying man from space. Space cancer is probably ten times worse than Earth cancer. Maybe even dangerous to werewolves. )

[sheriffing]

He's not an alien. He's very human.

[ no one would know better than Emma.]

You haven't heard everyone's story yet. And no. If he dies, I'll kill him.

[illtempered]

Good.

So, were you going to reprimand me for almost breaking your door or are you fishing for what I think of your life partner.

[sheriffing]

You almost broke our door?

[ look at that, apparently they don't tell each other everything.]

Neither. I heard you were upset, thought I'd check in.

[illtempered]

I wasn't upset, I was livid. This place took away my choice. It's something I have history with and I did not leave Beacon Hills behind to become yet another master's lizard sock puppet.

Your door's fine. Bellamy made a crack about coming inside before I break it down. And billing me. I may have used excessive force when I knocked.

( He may have pounded on the door, even. )

[sheriffing]

Lizard? I thought you were a werewolf?

You know I'm not the one who trapped us here, right?

[ don't take it out on her door, Jackson!]

[illtempered]

( Damn it, Emma. )

Lucky me, my bite triggered something else first. No, you don't get the long story, yes I'm both. I can change at will. I have an entire spiel usually when I explain it but I'm too tired right now. And what I really am isn't common knowledge.

No. I don't know that. Tell me again how you didn't capture all of us and your life partner. Please.

[sheriffing]

So, if you're both - are you cold blooded or warm blooded?

[ that's Emma Swan, asking the important questions.]

You can use his name, it's Bellamy.

[illtempered]

I run hot, it's parts of me that are more lizard. Warm.

I know you and BELLAMY did not trap me here.

[sheriffing]

...Noted.

That's better.

[illtempered]

Glad to oblige.

[sheriffing]

You're always going to be angry about being trapped here. I've been stuck for a year now, it doesn't go away.

[illtempered]

( He knows firsthand how rare it is for anger to dissipate. )

I know.

Is this where you say, that's why we all need to stick together? I've never braided friendship bracelets before, they tend to clash with more expensive accessories.

[sheriffing]

It sounds like that's what you want me to say.

[illtempered]

Then I should say something else. Avoid the cliches.
