[Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.]

Does it have to?

[redlightgreenlight]

It would be nice if it did. Life would be so much easier.

[simulsimul]

Easier, perhaps. Not better.

[Four thousand years of apathy is not a thing he wishes to revisit.]

[redlightgreenlight]

Better...no, perhaps not.

[simulsimul]

Does it make things difficult for you, that I remind you of him?

[redlightgreenlight]

I don't exactly remember our positive relationship and I'm not a stranger to negative interactions.

[simulsimul]

That doesn't speak well of our relationship currently, given the reminder.

[redlightgreenlight]

We haven't tried to kill each other yet...so I think we're doing just fine.

[simulsimul]

So you say. But most of my lasting relationships involved trying to kill one another. We may need to step up our game.

[redlightgreenlight]

Oh dear...You may be right

[All her best CR started out with murderous intent...]

[simulsimul]

I don't usually arrange times for attempted murder, but let me know if you need to blow off some steam.

[It isn't as though he's had a real challenge here, either.]

[redlightgreenlight]

Nor do I, it usually just happens. Dates are more fun though.

[simulsimul]

I --

[Ahem.]

Wouldn't actually know.

[Can it be called 'dates' when it was usually a matter of 'being dragged out to dance by his wife because they just so happened to be staying at the inn anyway'? He seems to recall courting being far more regulated back in the day.]

[redlightgreenlight]

No?

You need to get out more, old man.

[simulsimul]

Courting hasn't precisely been easy, for various reasons.

[Pause.]

Not that I think that's what you were aiming for.

[Somewhere, Martel and Yuan both are laughing at him. He's sure of it.]

[redlightgreenlight]

If that's what you like to think.

[Valdis is most certainly laughing at him]

[simulsimul]

Hmh. Well, at least I have extensive experience in turning people down gently.

[redlightgreenlight]

Your loss

[simulsimul]

Is someone else's gain, I'm sure.

[redlightgreenlight]

And they say chivalry is dead

[simulsimul]

I am a relic from a bygone era.

[redlightgreenlight]

And yet, here you stand. Notably not dead.

[simulsimul]

Not for lack of friends trying.

[This is humorous, more than anything else. Mostly because true.]

[redlightgreenlight]

Usually friends don't try killing each other once they have become friends...

[simulsimul]

Sometimes there's just cause.
