help.

Not bad. Kind of pithy. One word usernames are on trend right now, so I appreciate it, but I'm just not sure it's, you know, me enough. You may want to talk to my marketing department, they'll tell you -- one syllable, hard consonants. It's all about image.

Speaking of image, I kind of only have fifteen as a max, seven as of now. That's not going to work for me. I understand you're, well, "broke", but have you considered having money?

Little thing, also, quick question -- are we going to save the world at any point? Not saying I have a monopoly on that, but-- well, no, I do. Literal hero monopoly.

You really haven't thought this through. Firing you.

Edit: See? That wasn't so hard. [ ooc ; lmdjsjd thank you. ]

Your inability to follow along for more than three seconds? Maybe.

[propulsion]

I wouldn't call it an inability. That's harsh. More of an insatiability.

[liabilities]

[ A quip for every choir. There's a surprise. ]

Cute.

[propulsion]

[ Other methods of communication are stressful, what can be said. ]

It happens. Most often when you're not trying to ruin my life.

[liabilities]

[ Sweetly: ]

I have no idea what you're talking about.

[propulsion]

Uh huh. I guess by now it must be second nature for you.

[liabilities]

That I deliberately go out of my day to destroy yours?

[propulsion]

Yes.

Or by accident, I'm not discounting that you do it via proximity only.

[liabilities]

That's giving me a lot of credit.

[propulsion]

Honey, you earned it. With interest.

You should probably be taking all this as a compliment. I'd prefer it if you did.

[liabilities]

Ah. So now you want to play nice?

[propulsion]

In light of recent events, I could pencil it in.

[liabilities]

That almost sounds sincere.

[propulsion]

Yeah, well. Work in progress.

[liabilities]

[ Never say she'll turn down an olive branch. Of a kind, anyway. ]

I could do lunch.

[propulsion]

You could? Great. I'll get us a table in Maui.

[liabilities]

Are you lying to me?

[propulsion]

You're right, the weather's probably awful this time of year. New York's fine.

[liabilities]

I don't do well in sun.

[propulsion]

Do you burst into flames?

[ And he was doing so well. Almost. ]

[liabilities]

No, but I melt if you throw hot water on me.

[ Lasted longer than most. ]
