[ Why are you fighting people, anyway? Grey winces at the sight of those words. Drew doesn't know. So many people here don't know.

Grey wonders when it became a secret. It never had been, before. Why is he so afraid that people won't like him, if they know what he's done? ]

because he wants to
i know what to do . i wont hurt him

[ Well, he'll hurt him. But he won't do permanent damage, that's what he means. That's what's important. ]

i didnt mean to tell you
please dont worry .

[Drew isn't exactly listening to reason anyway.]

dude that's a shitty excuse.
I want you to come here instead, ain't that better?

[He's now pacing around his apartment.]

the wolf can track you by scent, you know that, right?
Still think this guy will wanna fight you when there's a five foot wolf on the sidelines?

[ Grey hesitates. Going there would be better.

But it wouldn't solve any of this. And besides, he's already going. ]

he's taller than that . tall like me

drew i wont get hurt .
im not weak you dont have to save me

[ Grey saves other people. He doesn't need protection. This is all wrong. ]

he's angry because i know his friend
he was jealous
i'll fix it .

[Drew lets out a puff of a sigh.]

I don't care if he's tall. he's still human, right? He's still gonna wet himself. He's still small enough to eat.

[Drew seriously why are you obsessed with eating people. Are you hungry?]

Just because he's jealous doesn't mean he gets to fight you. I mean, part of me thinks you won't get hurt. But damn it Grey. There's nothing stopping me finding you right now.

I'll even tell Clary. She'll help me find you. she'll use her angel magic.

[Oh oh oh Grey you have made some terrible decisions today.]

[ On the one hand, he doesn't want Drew near Ronan, because that might hurt Ronan.

On the other hand, he doesn't want Clary anywhere near Ronan. Every protective instinct in him flares.

Grey is the weapon. Other people are not going to be in danger because of him. ]

do you trust me ?

I trust you.

[He did trust Grey, after all. He just didn't trust a lot of other people. And he didn't trust his friend not to get hurt, because that was always a possibility.]

that don't mean I'm gonna stand aside.

trust me to deal with it .

[ He is not involving anyone else. Not Drew, and absolutely not Clary. Who's next to be drawn into this, Abigail?! There's not a chance. He hasn't even told Thomas what Ronan wanted. ]

i dont need help
dont tell clary .

Fine. I trust you to deal with it.

[Because he did.]

But I don't trust him not to do anything dirty. [He doesn't even know who the hell this other person is.]

So I'm gonna come watch. I won't eat him. But if it gets bad I'm hauling your ass out of there.
Simple.

[ This is not what he wanted. Now Drew will see him fight.

But Clary won't be there. At least there's that. ]

watch
dont fight .
it doesnt need to be bigger than it is

[ On the plus side, Grey is rarely so assertive with anyone, and this is a significant step forward.

On the other hand, he still wishes it had never happened. ]

fine.
i didn't wanna fight to begin with.
tell me when and where. I don't wanna have to hunt you down.

[At least this way he could ensure that Grey stayed safe.]

de chima
thats all i know .

i dont want you to be angry with me

why do all these things happen so far away from my place. so much effort.

Grey I'm not gonna be angry. I get it. You're a dude with all these hormones and masculinity. Maybe you've gotta fight some dude to get it out of your system.

Just cause I'm a pacifist don't mean I don't understand. I just don't fight because of the wolf. I'll even give you a big slobbery lick to prove it.

you dont have to come

[ There is definitely a lower chance of him hating the violence in Grey if he doesn't come. ]

what does that mean
hormones and masculinity
i dont understand .

I'm coming.

[And he's chuckling now, some of his anger gone into the ether.]

I'll teach you some time.
High school biology and a long life with dudes taught me enough.

[ Maybe it would be better if Drew could explain it away like that. Maybe then he won’t be angry. ]

i hope you do

i have to port now .

okay. well I guess I've gotta come find you then.

de chima . near the porter

it wont be hard

[ Ronan had said near the porter, anyway. Grey won't do this in front of people, but he doesn't think Drew will be far behind him. ]

then I guess I'll be seeing you soon. Just tryina figure out if its me gonna be there or the wolf.

drew

i will be ok . you wont need the wolf

[ He hopes, anyway. That would just be an attempt to scare Ronan off, and Grey doesn't want him to think he's bringing backup. ]

I'll be the judge of that, kid.

[ Misery. ]

ok .

see you there .

See you there Grey. Don't start without me. Someone needs to be there to bite his arms off when shit hits the fan.

[ Grey doesn't answer again - he's fairly sure the fight will be answer enough.

He's sorry, Drew :( ]
