[It's been a long week. Since coming back from the dead, Kilgrave has been in hiding thanks to Jessica's lovely PSA, but it's a small town and given the number of people who have seen him (not to mention the creepy stalker leaving gifts in his room) he's pretty sure that his return can't have gone unnoticed. There's also the matter of this upcoming meeting at the end of the month. He can't hide forever. So what's the alternative? Come clean, of course. It's time to set the record straight:]

Well, this is a belated introduction, but for good reason. I'm Kilgrave. The day after I arrived, a woman possessing super strength found me, put her hands around my neck and strangled me to death.

You may know her as Jessica Jones. The woman who decided that the next best thing to do after committing murder was to tell you all about it. She had plenty to say about me, didn't she? I know, I read it. Everything she accused me of is a lie.

Jessica is violent, unstable, delusional and extremely dangerous. She made up those accusations to blind you to the reality that she confessed: she's a murderer. Those 6 victims she talked about? Hers, not mine. She killed my parents. She framed my girlfriend for the murder of her parents. She ripped off a man's head with her bare hands. The list goes on.

I have been on the run from this woman for much longer than our time spent here. I don't want to bring trouble from home to this town, God knows living here is difficult enough, but I know Jessica is looking for me. And I can't keep hiding. So I have one request for all of you: Please do not help her. I'm under no illusion that we can stop her permanently, not when that room seems to bring people back, but if we can stop her from hurting anyone else we'll all stand a better chance of making it through the day.

I don't recall asking for an apology. I was merely pointing out blood lust does not help paint a picture of innocence for you.

So what's the story between the two of you, then?

[kiljoy]

[He'd be glad that someone finally asked if only it were someone more polite. Well then:]

It's a long story. Jessica and I were in love. We were happy together. Then there was an accident... We were separated, I didn't see her for a year. And when she came back, something had changed. Maybe the accident did something to her, maybe it was in her all along. But she went after me, kidnapped and tortured me, tried to kill me. She couldn't stand that I'd rebuilt my life without her. She just had to destroy it.

[lowkeycrazy]

[wow, how dare? he was offering advice on how to make himself look more innocent and everything!]

The possessive type. I see.

[d..do you, akechi???]

That's quite a leap to go from wanting you to wanting you dead. [Or maybe it's not as much of a leap as Akechi would like to admit.]

[kiljoy]

They say there's a thin line between love and hate. That's particularly true when it comes to her.

[He might also be familiar with the feeling himself.]

[lowkeycrazy]

So it would seem.

Aside from super strength, does she possess any other powers?

[kiljoy]

She can nearly fly. It's more like high performance jumping. But she can cover a large distance in very little time, so it's something to watch out for.

[lowkeycrazy]

Wonderful.

I trust you'll do your part, then, to ensure that this feud doesn't start involving outsiders?

[kiljoy]

[Why the fuck is it solely his responsibility to stop Jessica from killing him?]

I can't guarantee that. I'm going to need help.

[lowkeycrazy]

Hence why I said "do your part".

I'm sure there are a fair share of "heroes" here who will be more than eager to keep the peace. [Like SOMEONE he knows...]

[kiljoy]

I take it you're not one of them.

[Given that he put "heroes" in air quotes. What's going on there, buddy?]

[lowkeycrazy]

Marvelous deductive skills you have there.

[salt. too much salt. as salty as the dead sea.]

[kiljoy]

[Okay dude, he sees you shitposting.]

Fine, I don't expect you to help. You know enough to stay away from Jessica now. Don't say I didn't warn you.

[lowkeycrazy]

[he has no idea what you're talking about, he's a perfect angel???]

Good luck with not getting killed again.

[is it sincere? mocking? who knows.]
