( again, it's delivered with the usual matter-of-fact directness. he'd poured all his energy into finding this mysterious goat-headed killer, only to have the fucker lurking right under his nose. had neglected john, his pain, because it was easier to bury himself in the pursuit. )
And I don’t know if Quentin will really let him go easily.
[ There’s a part of Junpei - and he can’t even pretend it’s a small part - that entirely understands the addictive appeal of the flavor of someone like Danny. Even with everything out on the table. Maybe even more so with everything out on the table. ]
And nobody likes being told their own business. ( either quentin will talk about it or he won't; they can give him the time and space to process as needed. )
Anyway, I'll be heading into town to stock up, and then I'll be back in the woods. If you need anything, give me a heads up. Otherwise, I'll keep you posted on anything I find.

[ When they’d first met, Junpei had been aloof and cold towards him, still in the mindset of trying to keep people away. Yet Quentin persisted. ]
And the type to attract the attention of some of the weirdest guys here.
If you’d asked me in December which one would be the most likely to hurt him, my answer wouldn’t have been Danny.
no subject
( it's probably rooted in some kind of fascination. the urge to see just how far that goodness extends. )
I don't think Danny will let him go easily. ( he knows he wouldn't in his place. that'll need addressing, but for now, murphy is still the priority. )

But I’d be a hypocrite to say as much.
