Yeah, you've said. He used you for them too, didn't he?

[phaseshifter]

[ ... ]

No. Not exactly. I was never a test subject or anything. Not like that.

[devoutish]

You were a collaborator? And then you rebelled.

[phaseshifter]

Pretty much. I didn't actively collaborate in slag experimentation, but if it weren't for me then Jack wouldn't have been mining and refining eridium in the first place.

[ Which sure makes it awkward when Fiona's talking about Pandora getting ravaged for it, fyi ]

[devoutish]

And why is that?

[phaseshifter]

It's com-- You're not going to accept "it's complicated," are you.

To wake the Warrior - the giant monster I talked about - Jack needed a siren to charge up an ancient artifact. Which was achieved by pumping me full of pretty much all the eridium he managed to dig up. Plus he said that all his plans and ambitions were just to protect me anyway, but I'm not too far gone to realise that his motivations got really freaking warped over time.

[devoutish]

Angel, if that's not experimentation, I'm not sure what is.

[phaseshifter]

He knew it would work beforehand. We knew that a fellow siren was able to charge her own abilities by processing smaller quantities of eridium; there was no experimenting involved.

[ SEMANTICS ]

[devoutish]

Mm, still. Same sort of idea.

[phaseshifter]

Mmmmh. Maybe. Um - you seem pretty curious about all this stuff. Are you planning on talking to Fiona about it? I'm not gonna ask you not to, I just. Want to know.

[devoutish]

I'm not gonna bring it up. She doesn't already know?

[phaseshifter]

She knows bits of it. And honestly, she's probably worked out most of the rest? But it isn't something we've talked about much. There isn't really a good time to mention willingly collaborating with Jack for a while, or to drop deets on being the reason her planet got mined in the first place.

[devoutish]

Mm.

I won't promise I won't ever tell her.

[phaseshifter]

That's cool. Just saying that you're not planning on bringing it up is more than I deserve, really, so. Thanks.

[devoutish]

I haven't got plans, but she deserves to know, and if she wants to, I'll tell her.

[phaseshifter]

That sounds more than fair to me.

[ Oh no if Fiona gets told about this it could potentially draw her anger away from Rhys and onto Angel and that would be AWFUL

SUPER AWFUL

THE WORST ]

[devoutish]

Mm. I'll ask her when there's a good moment for it. In person, before she leaves.

[If she's even... still planning to. He hasn't asked her about that yet, either.]
