He lied about his name? So the one detail he had about this kid, besides the nuking, was a lie? Reassuring. Axel knew he should run, he didn't feel too at ease right now and he definitely wasn't appeased, he felt the desire to run and whenever he felt it ebb, he turned his head and looked at the mess to the side of him. That kid died and all because Luke was a jealous asshole? Dick move. The kind of move that he was pretty sure his dad would have pulled...

And Axel would have laughed then, Hell, he couldn't deny he'd needlessly hurt people himself. He didn't have a body count yet but he's hurt a lot of people and seen a lot of people die by now. It just didn't make this whole thing any easier.

"Luke." Huh. Seemed almost too normal for him. "You won't kill anyone else unless they try to hurt me?" He looked up and met the others eyes, trying to judge if he was bullshitting or not. "Dude, you're still fucking nuts. You still kind of killed my date. It's not this simple, you just-- you've got to ..."

What? What could he even say to explain it to him? He frowned and rubbed the back of his neck, feeling awkward. It was hard to judge when he saw a harsh reflection of his own previous behaviour being shined back in his face. "Why do you even want this? Tell me why you want to be friends and maybe I'll stick around."
