[Emil is relieved to get a response at all, even more relieved when he actually reads it and realizes Russel doesn’t mention yesterday. He too would much rather think about something else.

He can’t blame Russel for being suspicious because nine out of ten times, he would take advantage of people’s kindness and go back to being a dick. But when your attitude almost gets someone killed, you start to seriously reevaluate your life choices.]

i don’t WANT to go back
all i’ve done since we met is recreating fucked up past life events with my shitty behavior and this shit’s gonna stop
there’s being a dick and there’s being a psycho
i think past me was a psycho and i don’t wanna be like that

[can it be? is Emil truly turning over a new leaf? Russel wants to believe it, he wants to believe in the compassion of mankind and that all people deep down are really good people and

no man past-Emil was a total psycho, he can't just take this at face value. that's exactly what someone who was trying to take advantage of his forgiving nature would say.]

you better not be screwing with me. if you are you'll regret it!

[empty threat tho...]

[abhero]

[Yeah Russel you’re not very threatening, it’s Emil’s own guilt that’s eating him up.]

i’m not
i mean it

[Which probably doesn’t sound very convincing right now. And let’s face it, chances are he will slip back to assholeness eventually but right now he means every word.]

[hrnnngh he still doesn't quite buy it... but he would rather risk accepting a fake apology than risk turning down a sincere one.]

alright.

i accept your apology.

[he'll just...have to never let his guard down around Emil.]

[abhero]

thank you

[100% sincere here, but that might give Russel more reasons to be wary around him. That's the problem with a being a jerk all the time - when you decide to get a grip and try to be nice, it looks even more suspicious and people assume you're up to something.]
