too much excitement - always at capeandcowl

[hacktivist]

There is no logical reason you should wish to bring me to any additional universe, particularly one without Max--or Stark--in it. Additionally, I have my hands full completely with the one I am currently in. Your habit of overloading yourself with commitments you cannot handle is well documented.

Ensure you can handle what you have at this time, and speak with me again in the future. Your enticements are insufficient, and my presence is desired elsewhere - your request for my compliance is denied.

Our working relationship thus far has been a successful one. I wouldn't like to see this change.

All business all the time, huh.

[hacktivist]

[uncertain pause]

..your presence would validate some pleasure.

[motherofnemesis]

I'm not the person you would want me to be.

[hacktivist]

I feel that what I would want might surprise you.

[motherofnemesis]

Very little surprises me anymore.

[hacktivist]

Would it surprise you if I told you I wished only to improve your current emotional standing?

I ask for nothing.

[liverletdie]

I notice there's an or Stark caveat.

Odd.

[hacktivist]

You are the last person I would accuse of failing to rate yourself highly enough, Anthony.

[liverletdie]

I rate myself very highly, but I don't really consider how anyone else considers me.

[ OF course he does, but he generally ignores it either way. ]

[hacktivist]

Are you angling for a confession?

[liverletdie]

There's a confession to be made? Oh, do tell.

[hacktivist]

For some reason I am incapable of quantifying, I would...

feel your lack.

[illcommunication]

You sound like the voice-mail. I hate the voice-mail.

[No, you sound like Anna. It's aggravating.]

[hacktivist]

Heh. Heh, heh, heh.

You don't like technology at all? Or just your answering machine?

[illcommunication]

No. I like it. I like it, but I don't like it when you call someone and they aren't there. They should be there. And I don't like it.

[Also when the government shoots your sortofmaybethisgirlthatyoufeelthingsaboutfriend in the head. He doesn't like that, either.]

[hacktivist]

Sounds like a serious problem. Doesn't s/he have a cell phone?

Worried about tumors?

[illcommunication]

Everyone has a cellphone. They should answer their cellphone.

Unless it's broken and then they should have gotten the extended warranty.

[hacktivist]

What happened, exactly?

[maybevenomous]

What's the quote...The lady doth protest too much? You've got to be a little tempted to complain that much.

[hacktivist]

Heh.

I admit, the thought of continuing my work in another world speaks to me on a positive level.

...Should I know you? [friends with all da spider people all da time]

[maybevenomous]

Depends on the time frame. And line. So how about a solid 'maybe.' But if you know miss Lady Bat up there, we might have traded business cards.

[hacktivist]

Heh... one of Nyx's partners. [sob so much he wants to ask] You took care of her?

[maybevenomous]

I would answer that question, but I have to live with her.

[motherofnemesis]

Really.

[hacktivist]

I see... [oh no he doesn't]
