Disregarding my initial urges to “celebrate” a holiday based from something completely religiously dried up, I decided to take it easy for the remainder of my St. Patrick’s day evening. Meaning some good old “me time”. Or I was hoping to do so, at least.

Now, I’m not really one for aimless drinking [or so I am willing to admit],

Well, you sort of exploit everyone ninety percent of the time, Rusty. Think back to that little science camp you had going on. Not only did you let a little kid get mauled, you used me as a diversion to save your skin. You shouldn't have to force yourself into being pleasant; it should come naturally. If it doesn't, everyone's going to know you're just faking it.

Oh come on! I wouldn’t call it exploitation so much as utilization. You have to know your tools of ingenuity if you’re going to make it in life.

Besides, it wasn’t my fault the “kitten” method didn’t work out completely. I apologized about it when you were conscious. Or maybe you were still passed out.

The boy? Perhaps you weren’t there at the time, but I managed to construct an accurate substitute, thank you very much. Those parents will thank me later, believe me. Do you know how many dormant diseases and cancers were infesting that kid’s genes? It‘s baffling to think of how many genetic deformities people unknowingly spawn these days. Their kid’s are basically hereditary time bombs ticking away.

Either way, I righted my wrongs, “exploitation” or not.

How I love to hear that mein words have been thought-provoking.

Und to put it in ein way that I hope ein "man of simplicity" can comprehend: yes, you should.

I am sure you know that loyalty to ein authority figure ist not automatic, even if he ist ein man highly deserving of respect. When you put someone in ein position such as bodyguard, you give him leverage over you. The only thing that will negate this leverage ist for ein deep devotion to be forged. Und the only way this can happen ist for him to make the decision to do so. Thus, you must give him good reason.

More like a huge pain in my keister.

Feign pleasantries? It’s not really my specialty, if you, well... Know me. I’m not really the type of guy to “set things free” and longingly wait for them to “magically appear before me” due to some genuine patience and veneration. What I want I tend to... Get instantly or abandon, for the most part. I’m not very tolerant when it comes to little waiting games.

Though I’m not completely sure I have a choice as it is...

Maybe you’re right.

For once.

It need not be feigned. You certainly seemed distraught to see the man leave. It seems to me that there is something genuine there.

And as for patience, mein Herr, I shall not say that it ist ein virtue, but it is certainly ein useful thing to have.

My emotional impudence and selfish anger seem genuine to you? I'm not sure whether to feel flattered or dismayed. Or in awe at your... Vague understanding.

It's been awhile since anyone's understood me.

Well, aside from Dr. Killinger--... Wasn't he also German?

Does "meeting" mean what it sounds like it means?

[not_so_suave]

If you mean disheveled disagreements and awkward silences, then yes.

Oh, and don't be afraid to get your mind out of the gutter, mister. You should know me by now.

[peter_white]

You're the one who put it in quotation marks! Quotation marks always mean either one of two things: you're quoting someone, or you're saying something that actually means sex.

[not_so_suave]

Since when did quotations mean something blatantly sexual? I ALWAYS use quotations!

Sounds like you guys were married. You need to get over each other.

Lock from Brock

[not_so_suave]

Get over? There's nothing to get over, missy.

As for you, I'd say that little ego of yours needs some fine tuning.

...And you need a blazer or something to cover your... Your dirty pillows. A young lady shouldn't be so under dressed in the late winter. Or at ALL for that matter. It sends out the wrong message.

That message being "floozy".

Re: Lock from Brock

[industrial_pink]

Oooh, aren't you feisty.

Almost sounds like you're jealous.

Re: Lock from Brock

[not_so_suave]

This isn't high school, sweety. Jealousy doesn't work on men my age.

When I upset the people I care about, I usually apologize. Even when it's totally not my fault. I'll even offer them a token of apology. Usually a bird or a squirrel, but you get the idea.

I'm trying to decide if it's even worth it at this point.

And for some reason I doubt it's completely MY fault...
