[Hartley remembers how Piper reacted when he told him about the second Trickster, so he thinks he should probably be offended. He'll slide on into passive-aggressive mode just in case.]

It's fine. Did it make you feel any better to learn that I wasn't an obnoxious knock off, but rather a younger, smarter and superior version of yourself?

[ It's a good thing Piper just thinks Hartley being passive-aggressive is funny. He rolls his eyes. ]

You are still kind of obnoxious, though.

[timetopaythepiper]

[Piper never seems to rise to the bait. Apparently he's one of the rare few who can tolerate Hartley and his bullshit for long periods of time. Harrison was also one of those few.]

And yet you like me anyway. I bet you weren't expecting that.

[socialactivillain]

[ He's had lots and lots of practice of tolerating bullshit that's far more annoying than Hartley's brand. If life with the Rogues taught him only one thing, it's that giving a reaction when someone's being a dick just means they win. ]

I really wasn't.

[ He's genuine in thatt. The bizarre circumstances and Hartley's general attitude aside, he's already strangely fond of him. ]

[timetopaythepiper]

[Hartley's usually the type to push and push until he does get a reaction, but there doesn't seem to be much point with Piper most of the time, and he still hasn't quite figured out yet which buttons are the right ones to push.]

I wasn't expecting to like you either. In fact, I thought I'd hate you on sight. I don't like many people and claiming to be me didn't exactly win you many points.

[But Hartley's growing fond of Piper too. He's not entirely sure why, but it's a lot better than having yet another person to hate. It's almost like having a slightly annoying older brother he happens to share a name with.]
