[ i kiss aquila on the forehead :) ]

Ah, so you're one of the ones that actually sleeps?

[guestservices]

[ :nyeh: ]

Sometimes, when I get the chance. Mostly, I'm working my tailfeathers off with the rest of them.

[shaft]

Are we so demanding?

[guestservices]

Yes.

[shaft]

... I guess I can see that.

[ thinks of bucky causing problems 0.5 seconds ago ]

What about those files on us, are those private as well? Even our own?

[guestservices]

[ aquila looks into the camera like this is the office

no im kidding. anyway: ] Yeah. What if you wanted to take stuff out? Change it? Can't have that.

[shaft]

You don't trust me?

[guestservices]

You've got kind of an untrustworthy face.

[ ?

this is a joke, probably ]

[shaft]

[ yeah, he gets that a lot ]

What if... I do this?

[ makes a sad face ]

[guestservices]

[ I hate this.

they prop their chin in their hand. ] Hm? Do what?

[shaft]

[ tch

he frowns ]

Wow, age has really dulled some of my weapons.

[guestservices]

[ :3c ]

Getting old is so sad.

[shaft]

I'm only 23...

[guestservices]

Really? I could've sworn you were older.

[ they're like clearly teasing, though, if their tone is any indication. ]

[shaft]

[ sniffs ]

I guess I do have a roguish, debonair demeanour...

[guestservices]

[ help ]

Or a beard.

[shaft]

Is the beard really so prominent? It's normal for guys my age where I come from.

[ why do people keep mentioning it ]

[guestservices]

When you say "guys my age", you sound even older.

[ they are almost definitely just fucking with claude now if the mischief in their voice is any indication. ]

[shaft]

I guess... I'm just old on the inside.

[ sometimes you have no serotonin

looks at them ]

How's your tolerance?

[guestservices]

[ hehe. they pat him on the back like there, there.

at the question, though, they cock their head, birdlike. ]

Very, very good. Why?

[shaft]

[ VAX? ]

... Just curious.

[guestservices]

[ who? ]

I like to drink. Is yours bad?

[shaft]

It's fine. I don't drink very often.

I'm surprised you'd relax so easily.

[guestservices]

I'm a relaxed kind of bird.

[ they prop their chin in their hand. ] Or, maybe that's what I want you to think.

[shaft]

I'd believe it's the latter.

[ hmph ]

No hard feelings about was wandering into your lounge, by the way?
