[Returns it, leaning back, comfortable]

Could probably get a hat. We got hats in our store. Lots of feathers.

Re: Day 79, late

[crossmyheartandhope]

Whoa, for real?

[Starts to get comfy, himself, but then remembers the tea. He grabs a cup and hands it over to her.]

Re: Day 79, late

[unbr8kable]

[Sets it down, squeezing the honey bear into it as she replies]

Yeah, military caps and stuff. Got one for C, it seemed his jam.

Re: Day 79, late

[crossmyheartandhope]

He try it on?

Re: Day 79, late

[unbr8kable]

He wore it, at least the cape bit. He's tiny though, he'd do better borrowing from Cam.

Re: Day 79, late

[crossmyheartandhope]

He's AlcheME, he can shrink it.

Re: Day 79, late

[unbr8kable]

True. At the same time, do I want him running around in my colors doing more Furby nonsense.

Re: Day 79, late

[crossmyheartandhope]

It's cool, your colors can be infamous.

[A beat.]

...he ever recruit you, by the way?

Re: Day 79, late

[unbr8kable]

...Oh yeah, that was a thing. I told him to sell me on being his lackey and he couldn't, so.

Re: Day 79, late

[crossmyheartandhope]

So you're a free agent still, huh.

Re: Day 79, late

[unbr8kable]

Technically I'm still Intensity's employee, but...

[Trails off, then shakes her head, like to clear it, then shrugs]

Re: Day 79, late

[crossmyheartandhope]

But?

Re: Day 79, late

[unbr8kable]

[shrugs]

Hasn't had much for me lately. But then he got pissed when I called myself one of his investments, so...

[shrugs again; prods at his feet some more]

Guess he's just stressed, I think.

Re: Day 79, late

[crossmyheartandhope]

[...prods back.]

Or mad cause you called yourself an investment. Pretty sure you guys hit friend status like two months ago.

Re: Day 79, late

[unbr8kable]

[Slouches down further so she can poke him closer to the knee]

I don't see the big deal. I was trying to use a familiar vocabulary to make him feel comfortable, or something. Is this what I get for trying to be nice?

Re: Day 79, late

[crossmyheartandhope]

Maybe he thought you meant it face value, is all I'm saying.

He's kinda not the best at reading people, case you didn't notice.

Re: Day 79, late

[unbr8kable]

Believe it or not...

Still, even if I did, what's the big deal? Investments're good sometimes, I thought.

Re: Day 79, late

[crossmyheartandhope]

I mean, yeah.

[Wags his feet back and forth a little so they tap-tap against her leg.]

But it's kinda sad if you think you're friends with someone and you think they don't see it that way, right?

Re: Day 79, late

[unbr8kable]

[Doesn't say anything for a few taps.]

...Guess I shouldn't get too hung up on his reactions anyways. He's still learning what emotions are and shit.

Re: Day 79, late

[crossmyheartandhope]

...yeah. Sounds legit.

[Tap, tap, tap.]

Could talk to him or something, though. We got that thing at nerd headquarters tomorrow anyway, right?

Re: Day 79, late

[unbr8kable]

...I guess.

Re: Day 79, late

[crossmyheartandhope]

Or skip it. He's kinda got emotion hives, like you said.

Told him he was an okay guy once and he just about imploded.

Re: Day 79, late

[unbr8kable]

Wow...

[Shakes her head]

I'll get him eventually. He's so moody, you gotta see how things're going, first. Don't sweat it.

Re: Day 79, late

[crossmyheartandhope]

Yeah, s'true.

...he oughtta invent like a mood thermometer for himself, so people know when to steer clear.

Re: Day 79, late

[unbr8kable]

Heh, that I can ask him for. Can't imagine he gives you that much trouble. I figure you aren't actively trying to piss him off, for example.
