Now, it's not to say I'm not flattered--but are you sure you're not getting ahead of yourself, young lady?

you are one CIVIL... ENGINEER...

[tarrlokandload]

Charming as the prospect may be, I'm afraid my more obvious function is already being fulfilled by some other fellow.

Truly, I bemoan the local population's loss.

OHHHHHHHHHH

[mechasshole]

[HE CHUCKLES, RATHER LIKE A TURD, AND CLAPS HIM MANFULLY ON THE SHOULDER
ALSO LIKE A TURD] They're in mourning as we speak, no doubt. In the meantime, what do you make of this place?

[tarrlokandload]

[THIS IS LIKE THE TURDING OF THE SCREW]

It isn't without its appeal. [Mild glance at that manly hand with all that manful clapping.] A gentleman with your innovation could flourish well, of course. Is there much temptation to it?

[mechasshole]

[okay hands off and back at his sides, he doesn't want to have to touch bending scum for too long!!]

Temptation? I wouldn't say that. [a beat.] It wouldn't do to leave Asami to her own devices for too long, after all.

[tarrlokandload]

You're an ever vigilant father, Mr. Sato, as the best of society already knows.

But really, I'm sure she'd be fine.

[And not like, totally arrested like that one time.]

[mechasshole]

She certainly can handle herself, but I'd feel much better knowing she's safe. [and not about to get beaten to death in a mechatank by him! WHOOPS.] Then again, there's nothing saying she won't make an appearance here. Family has a way of doing that.

[tarrlokandload]

Family. [Oh wow unintentionally OR ENTIRELY INTENTIONALLY, YOU SCHEMER low blow.] ... Yes, indeed. Family always has a way of haunting one's own design.

[mechasshole]

[OH, HE'LL NEVER TELL] I thought you might agree, Councilman. But there's no need to talk about it at length--I must sound like a sentimental old man.

[tarrlokandload]

Not at all. [Whipping out that electable charm here.] Simply a man devoted to his beliefs -- and who doesn't believe in family matters?

[mechasshole]

Well, I can't say I've ever heard much of your family beliefs, Councilman Tarrlok! Perhaps you'd care to enlighten me?

[tarrlokandload]

I would so hesitate to rob your of your centered platform, Hiroshi.

[mechasshole]

Nonsense! But if it's a sensitive subject, I understand, of course. Not everyone can afford to be forthcoming.
