What's the story there, then

[ this guy ... ]

Jinx, you mean.

[powerhungry]

She didn't tell you?

[chipped]

She told me that you're not her dad and you're not that old

[ It's not what he's expecting. Jinx had told him, of course, that Vander was here, that they're at a sort of detente (that he still thinks of her as Powder), but—

He just looks at his screen for a long moment, thinks of Vander's hand around his neck, his own driving a knife into his flesh.

Don't you remember? ]

[powerhungry]

You've picked up a few new skills.

I've been getting quite the number of compliments on that necklace, you know. You have a good eye.

[powerhungry]

Perhaps, though I'd attribute any compliments more to the necklace's wearer.

[nightsung]

It's sweet of you to say so. [ In other words: she knows he's not wrong. ]

How are you settling in, post-kidnapping?

[suturing]

i've hit a wall.

[ is it literal, is it figurative, be a dear and guess. ]

[powerhungry]

Due to the lab equipment or the samples afforded to you?

[assistives]

So you are alive.

[tell me why she found out from a craigslist notification]

And how exactly did that happen?

[powerhungry]

Try asking me nicely, and I might consider answering your question.

Did you own a club back home, or is this a new type of venture for you?

[powerhungry]

I owned a bar.

[ Among other things ... ]

Is this sort of work very new for you?

Better to curb his worst instincts or cut him loose now than continue paying for it later down the line.

Wouldn't do to let the board down.

( the day of the pink slip's opening, a heavy black velvet box sits on silco's desk, impeccably wrapped, no note in sight at first glance. inside, a heavy decanter and two thick whisky glasses. unmistakably expensive, undeniably ani. tucked beneath the velvet, a quick note, and the invitation of a butterfly token glittering on top of it: )

For when we toast this shitshow we call business.
Consider this your backstage pass to my little secret.
— Miss Ani, your favorite pain in the ass

[ At some point, after four days unconscious and out of time: ]

Silco. Have I missed any work recently?

[powerhungry]

A few days. I thought it was unlike you.

I spoke with Ms. Kiramman.

[what happened to hello, good morning, etc.]

[powerhungry]

Commander Kiramman, actually. I'm surprised she didn't mention that.
