I wouldn't. Not that you're not worth it, but I've been staying neatly out of your psychopath fiance's lane for a reason and I don't plan on breaking my streak for something you can solve yourself, for all intents and purposes.

Yes, well, you're more sensible than your girlfriend *and* Thace, the second of which literally threatened to personally murder him for me while Lydia would have just sent her pokemon after him.

(Thace being that one guy I fought on the opening night of Fight Club. The seven-foot-tall handsome one whose pokemon made that video where they covered him in eggs. We've been friends since Sinnoh.)

I doubt Lydia would follow through until/unless you've apologised to her for earlier. I barely know Thace, it's not like he goes by the actual alcohol much for me to see him, but you should inform him it won't work on multiple levels.

I'm in the process of apologizing and she's in the process of advising me to dump him and I'm thinking really hard about how if I did I'd want to be very careful and not super rash about it. And she did offer to sic her pokemon on him if I needed her to and I said no.

And I already explained to Thace why murdering Jack is a bad idea that would just make me sad and accomplish nothing but making him mad.

Well, if anyone knows how to play a long game, it's definitely you. I barely use my apartment above the club if you need somewhere to hide or crash, Football has a spare set of keys.

Thanks.

I think what I might end up doing is bringing my own things over to your place a few at a time--nothing I can't just smuggle in through my briefcase--so that if/when I make my exit, I can just go, you know?

I'm also wondering if it's worth trying to fake the Sleep Of Temporarily Going Home in order to *have* a good excuse for leaving him that's not 'I went behind your back to ask things about your past and found out you did something unconscionable.'
