[Maya offered only a nod. Awkward didn't seem like the right phrase either, but she wasn't going to split hairs with Zer0 over a subject she hardly wanted to think about.
Instead, she cracked a devious grin that didn't qite reach her eyes, and shoved her doubts to the back of her mind.]
He told me that Jack harassed him on the way to find a traveling vault. Sounded pretty unbelievable to me. Got very upset when I insinuated as much.
[And then she had shut up in order to protect her research. You know, as you do.]
[That was enough to give her pause. She lifted a brow, clearly surprised at her friend's apparent involvement.]
You killed a vault monster and didn't tell me? [She huffed in a poor attempt at being playful.] I'm hurt.
[Jack's involvement was interesting, though. Even if it had been before they'd managed to kill him, surely he wouldn't have been able to keep his mouth shut about a second Vault.
Then again, he'd managed to trick them a number of times.]
Maybe it's one of Nakayama's clones? Though... those were far from Jack-like, weren't they?

I can vouch for him. / The Vault of the Traveler, / That monster was huge.
...The Jack part doesn't add up, though. This was after we took him down.

Sorry. It was kind of spur of the moment.
[He totally would have invited the squad if there'd been time, shit would have been so tight.]
If there were Jack clones, / I think we'd have heard of it. / I'll have to ask him.

[The threat in her voice was betrayed by the upturned corner of her lips. Like hell she would go into a fight without Zer0.]
Better you than me. I think I might have scared him. Or at least made him jealous.
no subject
Interesting. He's never seemed afraid of me.
[Then again, Zer0's not a badass siren, maybe it's that. Yeah it's totally that.]
