Meyer Lansky thinks I have too many BE journals

[recognize_an_opportunity]

As much as I appreciate your interest in my ventures, mun, I think you're missing the point. The way I see it, you'd be better off expressing your interest in someone else. You've got enough other "characters" for that, anyway.

[A shrug.]

I don't want any problems, here, so if you insist, I guess I have no choice but to try and work with you. It might make an uneasy partnership, though.

Does being short bother you so much that you have to add it as a negative qualifier for yourself?

[recognize_an_opportunity]

It doesn't bother me, but I wouldn't peg myself as your type.

[strategic_guile]

Oh? Then what's my type?

[recognize_an_opportunity]

Prostitutes.

[strategic_guile]

[Laughs] I don't have sex for business. Well, not unless I can get away with it.

You would make a lovely prostitute though. Some great roleplay.

Icon keywords seem so inappropriate given what Blaine just suggested

[recognize_an_opportunity]

Oh? Should I indulge my curiosity and find out just what you mean by that?

They are totally appropriate

[strategic_guile]

You'd make a great doctor. 'Oh? Where does it hurt? Below the belt you say? Then let's have a look see here.'

Re: Shhhh >.>

[recognize_an_opportunity]

[This will just garner Blaine a slight frown.]

Why does everyone think I look like a doctor?

[strategic_guile]

The 20-80 hair part. The professional demeanor, and looking good in a three piece suit that seems like it would look great under a lab coat. You have that stereotypical 'Doctor' look. If you sneered more you could be a lawyer.

[recognize_an_opportunity]

Maybe I should drop everything and go to medical school. Would you write a letter of recommendation stating what you just told me?

[strategic_guile]

Of course! I'd be delighted to~

[recognize_an_opportunity]

Let me guess, the next thing you're going to say is something about being my first patient?

[strategic_guile]

...actually, no.

But I'd very much like to help you study biology.

[recognize_an_opportunity]

I doubt you know much about biology beyond certain areas.

[strategic_guile]

True. I know more about chemistry.

[recognize_an_opportunity]

In legal or illegal venues?

[strategic_guile]

[Gasp] What makes you think illegal?

[recognize_an_opportunity]

You seem like the type.

[strategic_guile]

I'm going to have to watch out for your sharp senses, aren't I?

[recognize_an_opportunity]

That depends on if you see me as a threat or not.

[strategic_guile]

Threat or not, I'd like to keep you close, Meyer.

[recognize_an_opportunity]

I might feel better about that if I knew you meant it in a business sense and not a personal one.

[strategic_guile]

I mean it in all ways, actually. So you can feel 50% good about it.

[recognize_an_opportunity]

And what is your business, Blaine?

[strategic_guile]

Pharmaceuticals. [Laughs] Legal ones, mind you.
