Re: day 254, evening

[ahahadotwav]

...Ah.

I think I can see how I'd be scared of that.

Re: day 254, evening

[fullcursemeal]

[takes a sip of coffee and nods, not asking]

He was rather upset about it.

Re: day 254, evening

[ahahadotwav]

Really? Why?

Re: day 254, evening

[fullcursemeal]

... He'd promised to tell you a story.

Re: day 254, evening

[ahahadotwav]

And he cared that much about me hearing it? Doesn't sound like Booker Storm at all.

Re: day 254, evening

[fullcursemeal]

Yes, they're very different in many ways.

Just like Shura and Curtain.

1/2

[ahahadotwav]

Just like Goldilocks and the Golden Witch.

Re: day 254, evening

[ahahadotwav]

-Wait, shit. This is actually bad.

Re: day 254, evening

[fullcursemeal]

What's bad about it?

Re: day 254, evening

[ahahadotwav]

If Booker Storm knows I used to be afraid of him...

Re: day 254, evening

[fullcursemeal]

You think he'll use that against you?

Re: day 254, evening

[ahahadotwav]

I think he'll make fun of me.

Re: day 254, evening

[fullcursemeal]

Remember the dress.

Re: day 254, evening

[ahahadotwav]

The dress didn't even feel like it worked that well.

Re: day 254, evening

[fullcursemeal]

Oh...

[sounds disappointed]

Re: day 254, evening

[ahahadotwav]

He got flustered for a bit but then just stopped looking at me.

Re: day 254, evening

[fullcursemeal]

Don't let him look away.

Re: day 254, evening

[ahahadotwav]

Grabbing him by the face and forcing him to look felt like it'd be a bit much. He was already accusing me of trying to seduce him.

Re: day 254, evening

[fullcursemeal]

Hah. Well, if making him uncomfortable is something that makes you uncomfortable, there's no point in pushing it.

Re: day 254, evening

[ahahadotwav]

I'm not going to start actually hitting on Booker Storm just to make him uncomfortable! No way!

Re: day 254, evening

[fullcursemeal]

That's fair.

Re: day 254, evening

[ahahadotwav]

Anyway, we talked and basically agreed that I'll just start meeting him at his level? Meaning we'll just be assholes at each other.

Re: day 254, evening

[fullcursemeal]

Is that what you want?

Re: day 254, evening

[ahahadotwav]

Not really. It's not like I mind that kind of combative interaction in itself? But it's only fun when you actually know where you stand with the other person? I can never figure out what's going on with Booker Storm.

[sigh]

I think I had overly high expectations for working with a team even before, and remembering Finch has only made that worse.

Re: day 254, evening

[fullcursemeal]

... Aah. I'm sorry to hear that, I thought things were nice for you at Cirrus.
