[If he thinks about it, he can see Murphy's points. A lot of the guys who get whacked and deserve it still have innocent families; that's a sour reality he usually tries to ignore.]
It'd make everything easier if people could just learn from the one guy who screws up and gets his face kicked in and not be assholes.
[Obviously no place can be better than home; despite it being a harsh world, his Family's there. That sentiment's too sappy to share with someone he doesn't know well, so Firo keeps it to himself.]
Really? But didn't you say you'd be fine if you wound up somewhere other than home?
[By Firo's logic, somebody would only want to leave their home if elsewhere were better. Unless maybe Murphy means that everywhere is awful, home included.]
My home life is about as much of a mess, if not more. I'm not holding my breath on finding someplace that's better, just anywhere that's not here or there.
[He has mixed feelings about the whole matter altogether, in any case.]

Date: 2013-01-29 10:32 pm (UTC)I don't see why it'd be a bad thing.
[He's been fortunate that even if he's not the one doing the beating, he's seen the people who wronged him get paid back. It's comforting, in a way.]

Date: 2013-02-04 03:46 am (UTC)Back where I'm from, it can get pretty bad, but there are still good people.
[He doesn't mean that last part as a way to rub it in, but as an explanation.]
[text]
Date: 2013-02-04 11:27 am (UTC)All the good people I know just seem to wind up dead because of the bad people.
[Well.]
Almost.
[text]
Date: 2013-02-05 02:23 am (UTC)I'm sorry.
You can't really forget about stuff like that, but you can find other good people somewhere. So you won't be alone.
I think.
[As far as motivational words go, Firo's pretty sure those are some of the most useless put together. He tried.]

Date: 2013-02-05 11:34 am (UTC)[Though complaining? Murphy? Hardly. It's actually a refreshing change of pace asides from "OH GOD WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE."]

Date: 2013-02-06 11:16 pm (UTC)Not trying to sound like a jerk about it, just saying not to give up.
[He's still unused to texting and can't tell if Murphy was being sarcastic or genuine.]
[text]
Date: 2013-02-08 06:20 am (UTC)That's not what I meant.
[Didn't mean to sound passive aggressive or anything about it. Damn.]
[text]
Date: 2013-02-08 09:16 pm (UTC)[It doesn't help that he tends to be a sarcastic jerk himself.]
