[The text Rich had received was instantly worrying. A message sent to all three of the people Jeremy seemed to trust in the town was obviously a call for help, and Rich can guess who the "creepy guy" Jeremy is referring to is.
He's faster than he normally would be. The new pair of wings certainly help speed up the process (Rich notes that his wingspan doesn't quite seem large enough to carry him, but shrugs it off because nothing in this damn world makes sense, and he kind of wonders if it'd just piss Linden off anyways).
When he gets to the bar, tracking Jeremy down is easy, and it's a wonder he doesn't barrel in with fists raised as soon as he spots the man he's sitting next to. Instinct would dictate that was the best course of action... but Rich knows how the SQUIP worked on everyone here...
If Rich had deserved a second chance, surely Linden deserves the same. Or at least some basic human decency.
He's still nothing if not a tad overprotective of Jeremy, though, especially as he hears how crudely L is speaking, and so he moves to stand in between their chairs, pushing the money Linden had on the table back towards him.]
If you don't want to be mean, you might want to stop drinking. You sound nastier than I do.
