so I think what youre doign is stuupid and dangerous

but I guess its npt like you can undo it or back out now so

if I dont want yuo to die I miht aswell support you

[So he might have had a couple drinks to prepare himself for making this concession, because it still fucking upsets him and he's still pissed that Nick did it and only told him when it wouldn't make sense to him.]

im stil mad at you, fpr the record

[detectivetroll]

Drunk texting is starting to be a tradition with us.

And you're right, it's stupid and dangerous. It's a terrible idea, but it's the only one we've got. Will you let me finish explaining now?

[earnedmystripes]

and hey why thr fucj not i mean i cabt stop you so

gi wild

[detectivetroll]

Actually yeah, except I'm starting to wish I was drunk right now, too. Hang on, this is going to be a long text.

[There's a delay between that text and the next one, as Nick taps it all out and tries to word what he wants to say so it comes out the way he means it.]

You were right about being a cop here, and Yuji was right about us needing to do something. I thought I could ignore it, I thought I could just keep doing my job and I'd still be doing what I became a cop for, but I'm not.

I did this because I wanted us to stop being at war with ourselves, to stop wondering if we were the good guys or the bad guys and how the hell we were supposed to try to make things better when even the cops who don't know what's going on, who are just trying to do their fucking jobs, are caught up in this. As long as they know things we don't, they have the power. They're going to try to hunt us all down, and it's only going to get worse.

And I know you're pissed at me, and I know it's dangerous, but this is the only way I could think of to get in there. To know what they do, and to know what their next moves are going to be.
