On CW remake of B&B -

You should give it a chance, Mun. You might like it. [So very doubtful about that, Belle.] I'll admit he looks nothing like my Beast, but that doesn't mean -

[A small sigh.] I suppose you have a point there. But perhaps his beastly nature is on the inside? [Like Gaston!] It's possible?

Try to be open-minded. The preview might be targeting a certain audience. You know they tend to do that on that network anyway.

I'll even watch it with you, how's that?

Some harder than others, though. [She never even knew her parents.]

And if I don't? [Laughs softly.] If it's true, then you shouldn't care whether I or anyone else believe you or not. If you believe it, then that's the only truth that matters.

[beau_sest_leve]

I accept that. [A small village in medieval France probably trumps a lot. Sickness and disease were a bit of a problem.]

It's rude of you to think I'm a liar. [It's the lack of manners that bothers her.]

[selfmadeprincess]

But it would be ruder of me to act as if I didn't think so.

To pose and be dishonest comes easy to me, but since I respect you, I just don't feel right putting on an act while speaking with you. That's my own style of courtesy, and while I apologize if it's one you're uncomfortable with, don't expect me to change it.

[beau_sest_leve]

[...what.]

I'm not sure if I want you to respect me.

[selfmadeprincess]

Believe me, you do.

You wouldn't like the opposite.

[beau_sest_leve]

I can't imagine it being worse.

[selfmadeprincess]

But you have a wonderful imagination! Use it for a little while and I'm sure you'll be able to see how worse it could be.

[beau_sest_leve]

[She'd rather not.]

It was...nice [or something] meeting you.

[selfmadeprincess]

Nice meeting you too, Belle. I really appreciated it. Bye!

[She smiles so sweetly as she leaves that it almost makes one forget the blatant sociopathy displayed before. Almost.]
