What do you mean "how could I not have expected it?" Despite my endless charms, she is, of course, Mary Shelley, even if at the current moment she is actually Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin. She must get married to Percy, if not for history, then at least for the snappier name. Besides, you've heard - she never shuts up about him.

... I haven't been flirting. Blimey, you humans, you read into everything, don't you.

Anyway, it was only the one time.

Flirting?

You are quite correct, sir. There is no possibly way it might have been you.

[perfect_shoes]

If that's sarcasm, I'll have you know I don't appreciate it.

[ambitious_woman]

But you do appreciate Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin

[perfect_shoes]

Yes, well, of course. Mother of horror and science fiction; hard not to appreciate Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin.

[ambitious_woman]

And that is all you appreciate then? Her stories?

[perfect_shoes]

Wheh-... ah, I mean, her stories aren't all there is to be appreciated, though that should hardly be a surprise.

You're getting at something, aren't you.

[ambitious_woman]

Which would only imply that there is indeed something to -- get, as you stated so eloquently.
