It's not really a place you go. I mean, there are safehouses and things that we use, but mostly all of us are usually on the go. But I'm sure you'd get along with a lot of them like a house on fire.
( If she could scoff, Dolls. If she even had a leg to stand on. There are whole groups she doesn't get along with. Old high school enemies. Revenants. It's a long list. )
Why'd you want to know if I had someone special back in Purgatory?
("You wouldn't have to ask about people's lives if you didn't leave them in the first place." It echoes inside her head, but she's able to not voice that thought. She made a promise to Waverly, and to herself, and she's going to stick to it. It hurts that it hurts, but admitting it hurts will make it hurt more. )
You're talking to the girl whose idea of small talk is, 'where's the nearest bar.'
( Also, shoe size and you-know-what-size correlation. Discuss.
She hasn't exactly refined herself over the years. She just hopes she's evolved enough. )
You do a lot of good Underground?
( Tell her staying away was worth it. That it's better for everyone. That the sting she stumbled on is only the start. Maybe that will kill the dull ache she numbs with a dedicated sip of her old fashioned. )
[He likes the work, and he gets along with the people. He feels useful, which is more than he thought he would get going into supernatural witness protection.]
It depends on the case, and the general climate, but I feel like I help more people than I hurt.
Some of us have free digs and miss the city life. It ain't Greece...
( but it'll do.
she's not going to go into 'this is parenting' and she and doc can do this in the same city. he doesn't get to hear about that side of her. not today. maybe eventually. )

It's what you do, isn't it? Ask about people's lives when you haven't seen them in a long time?

( Even if he leaves them prematurely, dies, or leaves people behind. Even if he decides to. )
So, what now? After tonight. What's next after Xavier Dolls' apology tour?

Not sure. A bunch of us are tied up in witch shit right now, so the rest of us will be making sure the small stuff gets handled.

I don't miss Black Badge.
[Black Badge made his life hell for so long, and even with Jeremy at the helm, he wouldn't go back.]

What about you? Going back underground?
no subject
[There's some bigger problems going down, and someone is going to need to cover the smaller stuff.]

I'm saying that if you don't mind the occasional work trip, I can make myself more available.
[For friendship, for whatever Wynonna wants. He's opening the door, he's leaving it up to her to set how far.]

( For whatever the door brings the both of them. )
Maybe don't lose my number then.

[And with that, they will just hang out and chill for the rest of their time at the party.]
