Hey there, kiddos!
So...
I'm guessing by this point you've all seen the dude that looks and sounds just like a really roughed up version of me.
That's Jack Number Two.
[He figures it's about time he addresses this situation, since it could end up being a sort of liability.]
Long ass story short, he's my doppelganger, he took an insanely high paying job to basically be a secondary me. And he was really good at it for a while, but then I guess some shit happened and I haven't seen him in years and he's all pissed off about things that happened when I wasn't even around.
[Like it's Jack's own fault that he ended up getting his ass kicked by terrorists and the casino went into lock down with Other Jack in it. The dude has Jack's DNA, he could have gotten out. Probably. Anyway the point was it wasn't anything that had been Jack's fault.]
He doesn't know I'm a high ranking member of this stupid organization. Don't mess with him or anything, cuz for one he's basically me and messing with me is a bad idea in general - I at least like most of you people. He doesn't.
And plus I'm trying to work shit out with him, so just leave him alone.

Also he goes by 'Tim'.

Yikes.
[I snort a bit through my nose, which is the closest I come to actual laughter.
Typed shit like "lol" or "ha ha," "hee hee," etc. isn't quite the same thing.]
So, no respect for the image he's damaging.
Fuck it, then. Either you get this loose doppelganger under control or you have someone to pin a crime on once in a while.

Patience is a virtue for a reason - I'm speaking from experience. Rush things and ya fuck'em up!
[It was way easier when he could just blow Tim up whenever he wanted. Or at least threaten to.]

But we have a problem. By which I mean I do, and I'm about fixing to make mountains out of some molehills.
I lean back, the lenses of my shades perfectly parallel to the camera for maximum glare off the overhead light.]
I've been trying to be culturally sensitive--
I'm no stranger to interspecies diplomacy here.
But I can't help but notice your formerly-consistent quirk is suddenly absent when you're talking to the new guy.

Okay, I get ya!
Well, on account of the fact we're after dark fun time buddies, all the nicknames I got for Steven aren't ones anybody would appreciate me using on the network.
[Video - locked] [Dirk hated that]
The pause is longer than I meant it to be.
He's serious. It takes me a minute, partially because he just used the phrase 'after dark fun time buddies' and partially because--]
How long did it take from time of arrival to raw, animalistic fucking?
[Do I actually want to know? No, of course I fucking don't. It's not my business. And that's only ONE reason.]
Don't answer that, it's not actually a question. I have some opinions here but I'll keep them to myself.
[I'll bow out. I don't need this right now.]

But when you're my age, and stuck here, and coming off a two year dry spell...it's stupid to waste time or put off pursuing an opportunity. Seize the day!

[I know I tend to mutter, so I keep my tone harmless. Not sarcastic. Close enough to joking, but not actually joking. Subject matter aside... I don't really 'do' jokes.]
Man, you just tell anything to anyone, don't you.

Why wouldn't I? I'm awesome, my life is awesome, I got nothing to be ashamed about! I spent the last five years before I showed up here living in the public eye, I am not shy.
