Oh, share all the intimate details you like.

Especially if they're very positive.

[nascensibility]

So you don't mind me talking to a confidante about you and your

[How to phrase this?]

assets?

[every_damn_day]

No. Why would I?

[nascensibility]

[He isn't exactly the preening type, but it is a considerable relief to know he isn't peeved she's dishing on him to a friend like some sort of shameless gossip.]

Just asking to be sure. Is there anything in particular I should put emphasis on?

Your marvelously statuesque height? That fact that you were apparently sculpted by one of the Old Masters?

[every_damn_day]

I think I trust your judgement on that. Not just because I'd never come up with anything about the "Old Masters." You're definitely the poshest girl - sorry, woman. Definitely woman. - who's ever hit on me.

[nascensibility]

That’s awfully sweet of you to say, though I’d like to do more than flirt with you.

[every_damn_day]

No need to force me, my door's open. What do you have in mind? [He might be placing a bet with himself if the answer is going to be more posh or more dirty.]

[nascensibility]

[The real art form is making dirty things sound posh.]

Well, if I'm going to solicit your company with carnality, I think it might better be demonstrated audibly.

[Text only goes so far.]

[every_damn_day]

Whatever you thinks best.

[nascensibility]

[Of course he leaves it to her to transfer over to a call, which is impossibly annoying, if understandable. It doesn't keep her from being less nervous no matter how confident she sounds when she says:]

Hello, stranger.

[every_damn_day]

Pretty sure the backseat of your car ruled out stranger.

Hello. [It's been a while, since he really did this flirting thing. He's not sure he'd describe himself as nervous, but he wouldn't be surprised if he's just flat out bad at it.]

[nascensibility]

[Evelyn laughs - if nothing else they are well-acquainted enough in a Biblical sense to forego the usual niceties - and the smile is evident in her voice.]

In fairness, I don't usually use it as a venue for- you know.

[You know.]

[every_damn_day]

[Well. Maybe he's not so bad.]

No? That's a shame, I enjoyed it.

[nascensibility]

I did too.

[Immensely, as was probably evident by the state in which she left his shirt. Which reminds her-]

I'll- ah. I'll pay to have your buttons fixed, by the way. I was a little overzealous.

[every_damn_day]

Don't worry about it. I'm handy enough to sew on a button.

[Not that he necessarily will, but... she doesn't need to worry about it.]

I think enthusiastic is probably a better word.

[nascensibility]

Probably.

[She agrees, as embarrassing as it is to talk about how eager she may or may not have been with the very man whose shirt she compromised. Rick knows very well that he worked her up.]

You are particularly talented at encouraging that kind of behaviour.

[every_damn_day]

Well. I wanted to make sure you got the right idea.

work/life/everything has been hell ;_;

[nascensibility]

[He had been very blatant, a trait she appreciates in a man.]

I wouldn't worry yourself overmuch, I...got a lot of ideas.

Goddammit.

[continued from here]

[sixtimesdead]

Buck up. If you thought there was an actual chance of you dying, you'd have never agreed to this in the first place.

[every_damn_day]

You and I both know that's not a hard and fast fact.

[sixtimesdead]

All the more reason not to worry then.

Why does it allows have to involve the british museum?

Perhaps you're just lucky

[every_damn_day]

That's the funniest thing I've heard in a long damn time.
