you know i thought of getting out once really thought i had a chance to go straight
( getting everyone out of the raft, then disappearing. ross would keep hunting, but she knew better than anyone how to disappear and burn a life to the ground. the red rooms had been destroyed. dreykov was dead. yelena was — )
( like, he gets it because he doesn't either, not really. one would think that's his thing given the FIST OF VENGEANCE and all that, but given the chance, given all else being equal, he quite likes giving second (third, fourth) chances.
which isn't to say there isn't a line — marc's well aware of it more than most. )
But then it's the question of who and what you're doing the job for.
( or, don't give him that shit, natasha. they're saying the same thing, just justifying it in different ways. )
you don't think we do it so that one day it doesn't have to be done?
( peace — not that she's naive enough to believe that's really achievable but ... for some, maybe. if yelena could live the rest of her life as herself, not the tool they'd both been molded into — was it worth it? would it be enough? )
I MEAN was that ever a question (at least for me....)
So it doesn't have to be done by anyone, ever? No. That's idealistic and naive. But individually, so that someone else doesn't have to make the same choices? Sure, some of us do it for that reason.
( steve would probably say 'it's the right thing to do' — but even he'd insisted that it wasn't always necessary. clint had his family back, if she'd done it right. tony was — )
I don't look at the brands. I used to leave all of that to my housekeeper.
( and these days he just buys whatever because shopping for essentials and groceries is both the worst and really not a 'marc spector needs to worry about this' kind of thing. )

aren't choosing it out of the goodness of their hearts.
It's not the decision a healthy, sane person makes.
( a moment. concession— )
Or those with better options.
🤡 me when i get to slide in an mcu line

Which isn't as selfless as it sounds.

I do it because I need to do it.

he didn't say it outright but i know that's what he thought

He was more blunt with me.
no subject
pretty sure he was trying to avoid having a peanut butter sandwich thrown at his head, too
( which is probably different from how marc thinks of steve rogers )

Marc Spector lost a lot of his money a few years ago.
The IRS are about as big a fans of me as my ex-accountant.

he’s a fan of the art gallery
and not so big a fan of moon knight
no subject
( (give him a second.)
(this is awful.) )
in Spector's name.
A couple of other business ventures too.
Moon Knight hardly suits Grant's image.
