We're using this as a dating service now?

[For all of half a second, the big guy sort of looks like he's going to be annoyed about that... then just grins.]

Okay. Sure.

Hi.

[APPARENTLY THAT is all he feels he needs to say. Goddammit, Roller there are about a million things you could do better with your time, but no, you're trying to be flirty while you're in your chair made of boxes and your goddamn juicebox.]

[Because hey, when you've got nothing better to do with the next hour or so...]

( what is this, a rare public appearance of arcee from one of the public terminals? heck yeah it is. )

Feel free to continue to waste your time with this.

[officerjuicebox]

Hey, come on. It's not like there's a whole lot else I can do right now.

If there is, no one's pointed it out.

[loyaute]

It's boring. ( he will find no disagreement with her on that. ) I thought interpersonal relationships were made in person. Not over a network.

( dATING???? )

[officerjuicebox]

Well... you can meet each other on a network first, then do all the ... relationshippy stuff later.

Right? It doesn't have to be all online.

[loyaute]

I guess. ( a long pause and then, almost cautiously: ) Pointless asking here, isn't it? We're trying to go back home. Forming 'lasting relationships', trying to pretend they're anything but temporary. Just seems like it's not going to be worth it.

[officerjuicebox]

Not really. Nothing's stopping us from having a little fun, right? Maybe nothing serious, but hey.

Dates are fun.

It's a better way to pass the time than getting in fights, I think.

[loyaute]

I like fighting better. It's easier.

[officerjuicebox]

Well, yeah. But this way, you end up with less dead bodies.

Usually.
