Disclaimer: Domino, Black Widow (Natasha Romanova), Nate (Cable), and the Pope do not belong to me. This fic wasn't written for any monetary value, and shan't make any. It was written during my American Politics class, so may seem a bit jumpy.

Nights in Purple Satin "It doesn't bother you?" "It's a job." "Human suffering not something you care about." "*My* suffering I care about. Everyone else is on their own." "Good." -- "Overtired?"
