Funnily enough, I've had at least one other person tell me that about Signorina W and me. Maybe we'd get along like una casa in fiamme. I wouldn't mind talking with her more one day. And
[ ......
oh, fine. in some ways her bark is worse than her bite. just maybe, when there are only so many suitable targets to whet her weapons on. enemies rather than allies. and in any case even she doesn't even really believe in that sheer dichotomy anymore. ]
Fine fine. You got me. You're safe from being made into millefoglie especially as I'm receiving treatment from Rhodes. It won't do to carve up one of the resident birds here. I do try to get along with people, promise! We can see what we can get away with short of murder over a few bottles and a little candid chat together.
Hey, hey. I'm not the one you need to be making promises to. From the get go, I was all in for a fun night out the moment you said you were game however that may have shaped out.
You're not the one blowing up lab rooms on the regular, signorina. Does that speak more of you or a certain other person, I wonder? That said, maaaybe if you're still working on stabilising those symptoms of yours, we don't go too crazy right away. It can definitely be on the docket for another night, but let's make sure you're in good shape to make it to that invitation of yours!
Wouldn't want you standing up your date, now, would we?
I mean Like I said My idea of fun might just involve more disembowelment than yours. Don't want to get your handsome face too bloodspattered now, or do we? [ maybe she does... maybe she does, ] Actually that might even be an improvement. But all right I'll happily accept that, otherwise, I'm more mild-mannered than your serial lab-exploder. Assolutamente. [ 1000%
... ]
Also It's truly not a date! [ it might literally be the prelude to a break-up!... attempted. maybe not so attempted. because she kinda sucks at not being obsessed even when she tries. ]
When a face is this handsome, it really can't help but stand out in every situation, huh? Guess that's the price for being this much of a looker. You've got all kinds of people eager to see you from all kinds of angles… ♪
[ help
but ok. he'll bite. ]
Uh-huh. And here I am, planning a trip halfway across Terra and leaving Miss Saria to deal with the brunt of my reception work, all on a whim.
So this invitation all the way to Siracusa isn't a date. Sure. Got it. What it is then?
It's a show, an opportunity. A parade, a masquerade! A chance for me to Hmm Give back to my country, let's say. The dear and lovely homeland that borne and shaped and exiled me. There might be so much for me to do or lend a helping hand with or plots to meddle in! It can scarcely be so boring especially in the new city. And if I'm not going to extend the invite... well maybe someone else will because she sure is popular. But maybe I have a few things I'd like to say to her.
Better than this alternate scenario where you're twiddling your thumbs waiting for someone else to invite her to crash that party (as fun as that would be!), that just doesn't sound like your style, Miss Lappland!
Isn't a proposal the definition of a show and opportunity?
Hey I just say that I did send the invite And I won't be shying away from crashing any parties! [ or bulldozing right through them, just maybe.
she is such a lapptex anti she swears to god but ] Fine, I'll be proposing something [ a breakup! real and true! ] And if you read about it in the news don't tell me it's not as grand a show as I could make it.
I dunnooooooo. That's pretty vague. Considering I've got my own stuff to deal with, who's to say I'll even be able to catch the news when it comes out? C'mon. Sworn to secrecy.
[ . . . ] I'm not spilling any more of my plans unless I get to hear some details of that mysterious "your own stuff" you're dealing with, then. What's oh-so-important that you're really going to dump your duties on that workaholic Miss Saria, hm? Your little vacation that totally isn't a vacation.
So, aside from being a non-conventional point of entry, is there any actual reason I shouldn't use the window? It's not like I'm trying to get into trouble or start a fad here; I'm subtle.
I mean, it just feels so much cooler.
But honestly, it's also just the fastest way to get to you. All the halls I'd have to go through otherwise…? Booooooo.
Your path traverses 2.4 hallways to reach the door of my quarters from the building entrance. That is not an excessive number.
Additionally, you are less subtle than you believe. Captain Kirk has expressed interest in utilizing your favored point of ingress. This behavior should not be encouraged.
And what happens when you multiply that by how many times I have to stop by, huh? Now that adds up to an excessive amount! Think about the minutes, hours, days saved over the span of however long! We've gotta look at the bigger picture here, my man.
C'mon!! Even you have to agree on the logistics of saving time. If Captain Kirk's backing me up, I'm thinking I've got a pretty solid case and you need to relax. No harm done——until someone starts tracking in dirt, that is. Then, well, that's a skill issue on their part, not mine. ✌️
All done within my allotted break time, mind. Even contractors have rights, you know! You aren't seriously policing what we do off-hours now, are you?
And yeah
well
The captain's the captain. If you've got such a problem with it, you could always run for captain and make a rule about entering and leaving through windows yourself. Not that I know how it really works.
