leveraging: (Let's go steal a...)

Voice-testing, homeless, you know the drill...

Look, uh... mundane? I don't know what you're worried about, you've got some experience at this thing.

[ . . . what ]

No, just... run with it for a second, will you? This roleplay you're doing - you're basically just pretending you're someone else, right? And your goal is to... what, compromise people with feelings, emotions, manipulate them like putty in your hand, right?

That's really not that different from what I do. What I did before. Though, to be fair, our kind of roleplaying was far more expansive... and involved... and meant to defraud people who deserve it, but that's beside the point...

[ . . . Nate, Nate. No, I do not want to be compared to you as a conman, okay? This is different. DIFFERENT. ]

My point is, you're worrying about this more than you should be. So just... relax, take a deep breath, straighten yourself out and let me talk. It's not that hard.

And if all else fails... we've got backup plans. Use them.

I understand that. I ask myself that a lot about Chris.

[She nods a little. Thinking of all the things she knows she did wrong after her husband died.]

You keep telling yourself it's not your fault but it takes a long time to sink in.

I know. I have a feeling when Jack and I get married there'll be some moment when I just end up in a corner crying.

[She shakes her head.]

Listen, if you ever need someone to talk to or anything. I'm around. If that ever helps.

Thanks.

[She takes it and tucks it into her pocket. She may just wind up calling him, one of these days. Trouble does seem to find her and she never seems to try to avoid it either.]

I think you'll be okay, Nate. This place isn't that bad, although people tend to come and go which is tough sometimes.

I will. My mun tries to keep me pretty active, so hopefully I'll be around. If only to have this baby.

You ever get out to LA, give me a call. We'll do dinner. I'll introduce you to my fiancee if he's around.

I look forward to it.

Though if we're discussing partners I should say that mine is crazy. Which is pleasantly ironic since he's a psychiatric doctor.

Yeah. He's the fun kind of crazy. On his first day on the job, apparently he got naked in the hospital admitting area.

See, I had that exact look on my face, too.

[Laughing.]

Apparently he did it because this patient was delusional and thought everyone was monsters. So Jack was proving that he was human and got the guy to calm down.

But still, I'm amused that everyone's seen his ass.

Yeah, I think you and Jack are going to get along smashingly, Nate.

[personal profile] secondshift 2015-03-15 12:02 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, it probably will be.

Oh, yeah, my mun finally dragged this up if your mun wanted to see it. They didn't make much of it, she thinks, but it still exists.

As far as my mun could tell, math. She wasn't very good at it.

...Yeah, that's stuff they didn't teach me in law school.

[personal profile] secondshift 2015-03-16 09:44 pm (UTC)(link)
I went to law school and then into the academy, so I think I missed some of that. [Laughs.]

I guess I've always stuck to the straight and narrow. Mostly.
