[there's a pause, before they hide the knife back among their clothes.]

You're lucky it wouldn't be entertaining for the boss.

[agleam]

Yeah, again, that's about what I thought.

[guestservices]

Don't tempt me. There's no rule forbidding me from kicking your ass.

[agleam]

Mhm.

[rupert]

[guestservices]

[







they're abruptly launching a sweeping kick to literally knock rupert off his feet]

[agleam]

[he sucks so that absolutely succeeds]

[guestservices]

[dryly, as they stare down at rupert (probably, from behind their veil):]

You're pathetic. Don't talk back to people if you can't protect yourself.

[agleam]

[from the floor:]

Darn. This has entirely incapacitated me.

[he learned nothing from this but anyways he picks himself up]

[guestservices]

[rupert!!]

Be glad that Virgo's the one that likes picking on those weaker. The lack of a challenge saps any satisfaction out of it.

[agleam]

[he waves a hand, at that.]

Virgo kind of strikes me as the all bark, no bite kind.

[guestservices]

[a shrug]

Most people are more bark than bite. Doesn't mean their bite can't still be dangerous.

[agleam]

Have you had any experience with it, then? With them.

[guestservices]

[again, oh so dryly,]

We know enough about the way each other works. Let's just say that if you ended up dying by any of our hands, Virgo is among those who wouldn't give you a merciful death and we'll leave it at that.

[agleam]

...Are you bringing that up because there's a nonzero chance of that happening, or...

[guestservices]

Well, like I said, it's not entertaining, so I doubt it'll come up.

Probably.

[agleam]

Concerning! But understood.

[he does not sound concerned]

[guestservices]

[just laughs quietly]
