Fine, no secrets.

I'd call you pookie because you hate it but also because I think it's funny to call someone who terrifies people something so soft.

[beatsfor]

You can keep some, if it's that important to you.

I can see how that would be funny.

[2804]

You have a way of finding out my secrets anyway.

[beatsfor]

Years of practice, reading you.

[2804]

Think you're good at it now, huh?

[beatsfor]

Maybe. I know I'm not bad at it, at least.

[2804]

It would be a very blatant lie if I said you were bad at it.

[beatsfor]

Never stopped you before.

[2804]

Just pointing out all my bad qualities, aren't you?

[beatsfor]

You count that as a bad quality now?

[2804]

No, but I'm sure most people would.

If I ask you what you do think of as a bad quality for me, would you tell me?

[beatsfor]

Since when have you cared what most people think?

No.

[2804]

Why not?

( she doesn't care what people think but this is clearly the more important question to ask. )

[beatsfor]

You don't need me to do that.

[2804]

And why is that?

[beatsfor]

You get that elsewhere.

[2804]

Most people are too afraid of me to actually tell me anything bad.

[beatsfor]

Them being scared of you sends a message even if they aren't saying it outright, though, doesn't it?

[2804]

Are you implying that I should be nicer and sweeter?

[beatsfor]

I'm not implying anything.

[2804]

Good answer.

You act like the fact that people are afraid of me is something terrible. People are afraid of you.

[beatsfor]

How am I acting like it's something terrible?

[2804]

I don't know, you just are. Because I say so.

[beatsfor]

Uh-huh. Counterpoint: *I* say I'm not.

[2804]

Overruled.

I'm right.
