"Ok... thanks." Badou was still having some trouble wrapping his brain around the concept. Like any moment Hallelujah was going to punch him in the face, snort with laughter and walk off. Since his nose was still in one piece after a few moments, Badou thought what the hell and figured he might as well go with it. Worst case scenario was that he'd be no more screwed than he already was. "Really man, thanks."

He was saving the 'you're my best friend in the whole goddamn world' song for after he got them.

He saw Alle's expression harden and shook his head. "I don't think he'd have a choice. Met any visitors yet?"

Most people wouldn't call 'you know and you're still alive' something special, but Badou thought the part about not killing him was really neat. It didn't mean much since he'd found out about Halle through a fluke and some minor death threats, but it was the thought that counted. Badou laughed. "I wouldn't say that to anyone remotely normal, Alle. Just saying it might scare the shit out of 'em."
