[Private to Kirk, slightly backdated]

[Hego's sitting at Shego's desk, hands folded, expression friendly but not too friendly.]

Now, Mr. Kirk -

- Captain? -

Jim. I'm given to understanding that you're dating my little sister. And I couldn't be happier for the two of you! As far as I knew she never had a date in high school or college, or after she graduated, so don't get me wrong, I think this is a wonderful development. Even cranky, contrary smartmouths need love in their lives and it's just super that she's found it here.

But.

I know Shego seems like she doesn't care about anything. Like she can't be hurt, or heartbroken - and I may not notice some things, but I know she works pretty darn hard to give that impression. But that's all it is. An impression. And deep down she's just as human as anybody else, you hear?

So now I'm trusting you to treat her nice. I know it can be...difficult, sometimes, but I'm relying on you to treat her with the respect she deserves. But if you don't, and I get to hear about it...

Well. You'll be hearing from me again, son. Team Go looks out for their own, understand? And as much as I don't want to, I'll -

[The flood ends, leaving Shego in the same bedhair and camisole that she was in when the thing started. She blinks, looking startled and disoriented for a few moments, then just leans over and smacks the communicator to switch it off.]

[Public, voice]

Anyone who met my brother --

No, you know what? I don't care. I'm done with attempting damage limitation here. You met him, great. Enjoy that insight into why I wound up a supervillain.

Regina, you awake?

I can't promise he'll go for it, but I can ask.

If you can give me a reason why Ian felt a need to do this beyond just being a crazy bitch or jealous of you or brain-damaged by terminal lesbianism or anything else that might be your first line of reasoning.

Because she's a freak and she hates me!

Okay. Pretend for a second that you're living in some crazy fantasy world where your behavior has an influence on other people's opinion of you and try again.

[Ugh what do you want from her?] I don't know, God! I haven't even spoken to her in forever. Since like, eighth grade, practically. She's just a freaky stalker that's obsessed with me.

Enjoy your spring cleaning, Regina. You're back at the library tomorrow.

What?? What was all that shiz just now about the Admiral fixing it!?

If you had a reason for what happened. Which you don't.

Other people don't make their choices in a vaccuum, George. The way you treat them has an influence on the way they treat you.

I told you, I don't even talk to her anymore! She's probably still just bitter about what happened back when we were like thirteen -- that's what made her get Cady to do all that crap to me.

Finally.

Look. I'm not saying it isn't a little messed up to be hanging on to something for as long as she did? But it's not better to be aware of how much damage you did and just shrug it off. And I find it difficult to believe that you did anything to her back then that you wouldn't be just fine with doing again now.

I don't even see how I messed her up so much, though. I was just telling the truth! Since when is that a bad thing?

You told everyone who'd listen that she was a lesbian.

Which was the truth!

Putting to one side the fact that if she was a lesbian then coming out should've been something that happened on her schedule, you knew this how? Did she, I dunno, hit on you? Ask you out? Tell all your friends she had a crush on you? Write 'Janis ♥'s Regina' all over her schoolbooks?

Uh, yes. She used to pretty much lesbian stalk me.

You remember that I have an objective retelling of your life story and know that isn't how it went down, right?

What are you talking about? Of course it is!

It doesn't even matter. Even if she was a lesbian and was stalking you, that still wouldn't give you the right to do everything you could to make sure she was totally humiliated.

It wasn't like it was revenge! Hello, I was just saying, um, probably she shouldn't be coming to a pool party if she was gonna be eyebanging all my friends? How embarrassing would that be for me?

Okay. Let's assume that a totally theoretical, non-Janis lesbian went to your pool party.

What is it about being gay that you think makes a person completely unable to control themselves around people they find attractive?

Heck, what is it about being gay that you think strips a person of individual taste? I'm assuming you, as a straight woman, are attracted to some people and not others for reasons more nuanced than them being male.

[She rolls her eyes at first, but as Shego goes on, she seems to be listening. Slowly, a look of comprehension dawns.] Oh.

'Oh', what?

[She drops her voice to a near-whisper.] Shego... are you a lesbian?

It's okay-- [--no it's not--] --you can tell me. I won't freak out. [Yes, she will.]

Did we not preclude that possibility with the fact I'm dating Jim Kirk?

Those questions weren't rhetorical, by the way. I'm waiting.

Yeah, but he's your... [WTF is a lesbian beard? Probably still a--] ...beard, right?

Still waiting, and right now you are so far from getting your room fixed that you're actually closer to me asking to make it worse.
