Trickster? James? The second the name left Bart, he received something damn close to a thousand-yard-stare.
It took him through all of Scourge's reply before his thoughts had resolidified enough to make conversation.
"A-ah...no, no one's a henchmen here. We're may lean toward a common leader, but no one is under anyone else's thumb." Ever for equality, even under stress, that was a part of him unlikely to crack.
He never attempted to correct Bart about James, though. Not a word more unless the young man felt it absolutely necessary to bring the man around into conversation himself. Otherwise...
"But can I get some word at least that the two of you won't go to blows right now? No one here's done anything wrong." At least they hadn't at this rough and tumble round table.
