Game is genessia

Let me get this straight. You sent me alone against M. Bison of all people, surrounded by his goons, to protect a snarky little girl?

[He folds his arms. Then grins. He's going to get his ass kicked, but it's for a good cause.]

...See, this is what I like about you.

[He hadn't considered that, but she's got his interest. How often does he actually get perspective on this from the lady's side?]

That does seem to be the case, now that you mention it.

[Interesting. He nods at Carol.]

What would you do instead?

[drcmarcus]

*The look she gives him isn't smug per se but it is definitely meant to convey that she didn't earn her PhD thanks to her looks.*

What would I do? That depends entirely on who I happen to be with. Conversation is key. Seduce a person's mind and the body is an easy task.

[mouth_breather]

Yeah?

[He leans against the countertop on one elbow.]

Let's see what you've got.

[He holds up his hand and makes the beckoning motion with his fingers.]

Seduce my mind, if you can.

[drcmarcus]

*What had simply been a hypothetical statement before now feels like something else entirely. Carol almost feels like she walked into a trap. Almost.

There's just the hint of a smile on her face when she stands her ground and counters.*

Invite me to dinner and I'll consider it.

[mouth_breather]

[He laughs.]

Then would you do me the honor? I'll even abstain from cooking.

[drcmarcus]

With an invitation like that how could I refuse?

*Carol grins. She'll question if she's done something epically stupid or not later.*
