Shift 16//Video/Audio-- Too much, too soon?

[lotusrebel]

[Today's Public Service Announcement is being read out by a cheerful sounding girl.]

Okay, so I told him if he wanted it bigger, he'd have to bake it some more! Because seriously, it was so small like you wouldn't-- Oh shoot, you mean I'm supposed to start already?!]

[A rough cough and a clearing of the throat laterGood evening citizens of the S.

[missthewoman]

Thank you for the invitation, Chéri! I would certainly enjoy having a drink with you.

Re: [video] it's never too late

[lotusrebel]

I DIDN'T MEAN JUST ANYONE.

Re: [video] ♥

[missthewoman]

Ah, then I am even more appreciative of your invitation. I'm glad to hear that I am not 'just anyone' to you.

Re: [video] ♥

[lotusrebel]

I dug that damn hole myself didn't I?

[missthewoman]

[Yes.]

I assure you, my company is not equivalent to being in a hole in the ground.

[lotusrebel]

[Still looking resistant]

Fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff.

Fine. I'll be at a place called Tastea Space.

-> [action!]

[missthewoman]

[Why so hesitant? (Has John not told you that she's not that bad?)
All the same, she looks pleased when Lien relents.]

I shall be there shortly.

[And sure enough, after some time, Irene finds her way there. Entering in, she glances around to find the girl.]

Re: -> [action!]

[lotusrebel]

[JOHN DOESN'T KNOW ANY BETTER TAT

Irene should find Lien at a table by herself already on her second glass of iced coffee.

It's hard to quit]

Re: -> [action!]

[missthewoman]

[Oi. He knows best of anyone here.]

[She slides into the seat across from her with a bright smile.]

Hello. A pleasure to meet you in person, Lien.

Re: -> [action!]

[lotusrebel]

Hello yourself Miss Adler. Or should I just say 'Irene?' I'm fine either way.

[missthewoman]

[She is more accustomed to the sound of 'Miss Adler', but...]

Everyone on this ship is calling me 'Irene', so that will be fine. Thank you for asking.

[lotusrebel]

Irene it is. [A waiter comes by to hand Irene a menu of drinks]

Soooo. How has the ship been treating you?

[missthewoman]

[She thanks the waiter and scans the list.]

It has been quite amusing. In more ways than I ever thought possible.

I take it you have been on the ship for some time?

[lotusrebel]

For about over half a year now. A lot of stuff happened since then. [twirling her now longer hair]

[missthewoman]

I imagine so! Why, the last time I spoke to you, you were going to put your life on the line on the Sigrun!

I trust your luck and skill at turning a situation to your advantage helped out that time as well?

[lotusrebel]

Pretty much. It wasn't too impressive to be honest and I had other things to deal with. [Like her old roommate having issues such as girlfriend and murder issues, blind dates, self-imposed espionage...

It's been busy!]
