[Birkin sniffles, and it's not entirely bullshit this time. That really stung.]
You're so fucking selfish, you know that? I'm trying to make people here like you, make them trust you, and I'm making myself look entirely too suspicious by doing it for you to never try to give me anything back! If we're actually not friends, why the hell did you get me to ask for a job you could have?
[Giriko grimaces. He can't tell if this is really bullshit or not, and it's frustrating.]
I never said I was anything other than a selfish asshole.
Look, I don't know what the fuck I'm supposed to do, okay? I don't exactly want to risk dyin' to bring some kid to my enemies only for them to turn around and lock me up. Is it so fuckin' weird for me to think that's what's going to happen?
Henry thinks you should send help or somethin'. [He agrees with this in principle, but doubts it would be a good idea. Frankly, enemy forces showing up would only tip Noah off] But I ain't gonna ask for that. You tell Stein that I'll get his stupid brat back, and he'd better deliver or I'll slit the kid's throat before he can lock me up.
[Birkin growls softly with irritation. He hates that they're getting so backed into a corner with this, but he feels like he's got very little say in this.]
...Understood. And Stein's not a liar; you get Kid back here in one piece and he'll follow through with his end.
