Dan took a deep breath before dialing Adrian's cell number.
He'd just got off the phone with Adrien less than a half hour ago, and he was still angry.
Still very angry.
But he had to try and keep it in check. Try not to explode.
It was all ready getting hard and he hadn't even picked up.

Adrian picked it up without looking at the number.
"Veidt speaking."

"Adrian" Dan said through his teeth. He didn't have to say who it was, Adrian would know.

"Daniel," he said vaguely, hand instinctively already moving to rub his temple.

"How are you?" He breathed in to the phone, trying his best to not start this the way he wanted to.

"Being held in Latveria by a disgruntled former classmate."

"Oh?" He swallowed "Sounds like, oh you know what" he sighed "fuck this. What the hell is your problem Adrian? Honestly?"

"It depends on which aspect of my life we're discussing," Adrian said bitterly.

"Don't give me that Adrian" Dan rolled his eyes "Adrien" he growled "fucking Adrien!"

"I think the term for that is 'fundamental failure as a human being', Dan," Adrian muttered. "Trust me, I wish I'd done better by him as well."

"You were going kill him you miserable son of a bitch! That's just sick, you tell someone that you love them, then-" Dan bit his tongue.

"I know," he sighed. "I know."

Dan tasted blood and shook his head "No, you don't get to feel bad for yourself, you don't get to feel sorry for yourself. You made your decisions Adrian, god dammit, you made your decisions!" He sat up straight on his couch and placed his hand on his forehead, forgetting about his tongue "You gave Adrien anything any one would have ever wanted, but the one thing he needed, love. You told him you loved him, you told him you cared, and I think, somewhere in your head you did, somewhere in there, there was emotion. But you're dead inside Adrien."

"What you feel sorry for him? Sorry that he got himself mixed up with you? Well you should, you should feel real fucking sorry."
