on possibly being re-apped

[thirtyfiveminutes]

Of course I'm glad. My work on the ship was not complete. [ A beat. ] However, I do not quite believe this nonsense about me making friends.

[ Yet, he's smiling. ] The sooner, the better.

From the Barge, aye. Rorschach an' Dan too. It's what you might call a crosscanon hot'ouse; you might do well there an' all, love.

It's why I'm 'eading for New York once I'm done 'ere.

Dan is there?

[Oh wow, Laurie, don't be so excited. Right.]

I didn't think those kinds of places were so easy to leave.

[routemistress]

[Yeah, don't get excited; he's brilliant and we love him BUT largely, frustratingly MIA]

...Only for the inmates, love, we can piss off whenever we like. I doubt you'd find yourself on that side. I did take a short trip away after Adrian left.

[Because once Iris has decided you belong to her, you don't get to vanish without saying goodbye like an ass.]

Did you go looking for him?

[routemistress]

I didn't 'ave to look, ducks, I never do.

[thesecond]

Still seems like a lot of trouble for his sake.

[routemistress]

[Pokerfaced smile]

Always fancied visiting New York, any road.

[thesecond]

Best city in the world.

[routemistress]

It does 'ave its points, aye. You always lived 'ere?

[They actually spent most of that vacation in ancient Babylon, but that's kiiind of a secret XD]
