[One teenage girl with long brown hair draped down the sides of her face is staring at her new phone incredulously. Her tone one of disbelief and sarcasm.]

"Don't worry, we're the [Insert air quotes here] 'good guys'"? Seriously? Talk about mega government conspiracies. I'm not buying any of that bullshit.

[There's a pause as she reaches for something off camera]

First thing's first, if anyone has a lighter I can borrow, I want to burn the shit out of this file. [she waves the back of her personnel file in front of the camera briefly] I don't know how they got my information but I'm not about to share it. And if someone can lend me enough cash for a flight to Los Angeles, it'll be great.

[she turns away from the phone, seemingly about to end her message before turning back]

Oh, right. If you're my roommate, I only have one rule: Don't touch my stuff.

... you're for real, aren't you?

[glassinine]

If that question is intended to inquire as to whether or not I am joking, the answer is that I do not joke as a rule.

[attractedtodarkness]

Yeah, I can tell. I just didn't know how serious it was.

[glassinine]

...I would never extend an offer to help you search for your loved ones and then snatch it away. I am not an individual of any particular kindness, but nor am I so cruel.

[attractedtodarkness]

Lighten up a little. I'll do it, alright?

[a pause and she probably sounds the most genuine in the entire conversation]

Thanks.

[glassinine]

Er - quite.

[attractedtodarkness]

[she scoffs a small laugh]

You're a weirdo, you know that?

[glassinine]

Well. I hardly see why insults are called for at this juncture.

[attractedtodarkness]

That's hardly an insult. I'm Violet by the way.

[glassinine]

Er -

[A bit flustered - ]

A pleasure.

[And then a beat - ]

If you've any rules you want to add to the list, as well, you're more than welcome. I ought to have made that clear.

[attractedtodarkness]

Yeah, sure. You seen any of our other roommates yet?

[glassinine]

[And now, very grouchily:]

Yes.

[attractedtodarkness]

[She is so amused by his faces right now]</small. Who else?

[glassinine]

A man named Michael Cater. He is...energetic.

gah fail html

[attractedtodarkness]

Your kryptonite, basically.

do you wanna edit I can redo so you can edit

[glassinine]

Er - beg pardon?

nah it's cool

[attractedtodarkness]

Nevermind. It's a pop culture thing.

good I am lazy

[glassinine]

I see. Well. If that means that it is something of which I am unfond, then yes.

me too 8D

[attractedtodarkness]

Something like that.

You're going to have your work cut out for you. You know that, right?

[glassinine]

As an attorney, or in keeping the peace at home?

[He asks, like he's not going to be the one starting 99.5% of all the fights there.]

[attractedtodarkness]

You're too uptight about the rules. Can't expect everyone to follow them.

[glassinine]

On the contrary. I find that if you set high expectations for people, they tend to meet them.

[attractedtodarkness]

Try not to get a coronary, old man.

[glassinine]

Well. To lose one's life in the line of duty is a noble way to go.

[A...joke? Maybe?]

[attractedtodarkness]

Was that a joke?
