No señorita, I do not find the username you seem to have chosen for me funny in the slightest. Just because I have made a few mistakes in my life does not mean I do so constantly. You just choose to focus on those few mistakes.

The icons are appreciated though of course, you didn't make those. Make jokes about my efficacy all you want, but at least I'm not lazy.

[Smirks at username.]

They must be memorable mistakes.

[And a shrug.]

At least your icons are actually you. I don't "officially exist", so I get a "played-by" who sort-of kind-of looks like me.

[constantfuckup]

Everyone makes mistakes. I'll admit it's been luck that's gotten me out of the worst of it, but that's no reason to think I do so constantly.

I suppose there is something to be said for that.

[winter_raven]

I'm not saying they don't. Lord knows I've made enough of them. And anyone who was really a constant fuck up would be either dead or in jail or something, right? Don't see a prison tat, and you're walking and talking, so....

[She looks at him curiously.]

What'd you do that made her think of the name, anyway, señor?

[constantfuckup]

[A shrug] Well, it helps that I have powerful friends.

And apparently its a 'canon reference'. And amusing.

[winter_raven]

Powerful friends? [She double-checks that canon tag.] Don't happen to know the State Minister of Luxembourg, do you?

[Since you seem less-crazy than the one friend of his she's met so far.]

Amusing is good. You can have the name ironically, right? Mine's pretty straight-forward.

[constantfuckup]

Ah no, that wasn't who I was referring to. Though I certainly know of him. And more about him than most people.

Ironically? I suppose. Makes me sound hipster though.

[winter_raven]

[Watch her face fall just a little about that.]

How is it you know about him but don't know him? You aren't a paparazzo or something, are you?

[Smirk.]

You aren't hipster. There's enough hipster at my university that I can tell that.

[constantfuckup]

I'm a journalist, of a sort. Muckraking's still good business, y'know?

[unreadability]

To err is human, to forgive divine.

[constantfuckup]

Guess I've been lucky enough to be surrounded by gods then.

[unreadability]

In reverse, one must hope you capable of moving beyond your own shortcomings. By forgiving hers.

[constantfuckup]

Well, it's minor in the sceme of things. But a man can complain, can't he?

[unreadability]

Complaining can be very unattractive.

[constantfuckup]

Good thing I'm not worried about looking attractive to married women on the internet then.

Married women on the --

I wasn't commenting on your physical appearance, Monsieur.

[population_ctrl]

I certainly hope not. Do you know where this has been?

[constantfuckup]

There are many forms of attractiveness.

[population_ctrl]

They're letting everyone in these days, it seems.

[constantfuckup]

Huh, I was under the impression this was a public facility. No 'letting in' necessary.

[population_ctrl]

Come now. All places need standards.

[constantfuckup]

Got my shirt and shoes. Not violating other people's space. Think I'm well within standards.

[population_ctrl]

Spreading lies is an unfortunate standard, Monsieur.

[constantfuckup]

Lies? Please. Journalism thrives on truths. Especially the uncomfortable ones.

[population_ctrl]

Oh, I don't have a problem with actual journalism. [Chuckle.] Really. Don't flatter yourself.
