The first RP was KAMEYO and Blaine, EMP had Kameyo as her proxy while her stupid life is spiraling.
On 2nd RP, see Paragraph, 2 section 3 of the Roleplay 2 weeks ago..... I kid,
That being said there was also a couples therapy session that didn't go according to plan for JCS. Showing that EMP is manipulative and also a loon.The pet names is a thing from the press conference and hell in general it's not seen as a term of affection rather than just a connotation.
EMP is totally not reacting well to losing, EMP has pretty much spent most of career as unstable, you can see 3 or 4 examples posted previously I wont bore you with a history lesson. EMP is spiraling because she didn't get her prize and as such she does what she is known for and that's being violent. JCS realizes that and is trying to defuse the situation to prevent (damage / anarchy) from a known lunatic. In doing so a moment was sort of shared. You don't do the "There There Pat on the head" to your wife you do that to like a child "Better luck next time sport" On top of more footage for the "Reality Show"
On a side note I'm not gonna bloviate on exposition you either get it or you don't (And if you don't thats ok) But that's more or less what was trying to be conveyed, Chaos, Deescalation, shit for the reality shoe, etc.
