[ Wryly: ] Want me to kick his ass?

[dog_eat_dog]

[She has already considered how satisfying that would be, but...]

If you piss him off, I’ll kick your ass, William.

[omniavincit]

[ An audible eyebrow raise. ] You want me to kiss his ass?

[dog_eat_dog]

I don’t recall asking you to do anything, William. Talk to him if you want, I’m not his keeper.

[omniavincit]

[ Abandoning any attempt at levity: ] I want to know what you want. Okay?

[dog_eat_dog]

[A sigh.]

Not that I don’t appreciate you checking in on me, but what I want is to get through this week.

[ A very, very taut pause.

It snaps; when he speaks it's calm. ] I'm gonna get lunch soon. [ In case she doesn't want to eat alone. Or she wants to be seen eating with someone. Or she wants to use him as room service. ]

[Eating with someone as observant as William feels like a whole other ball game of stress, but she figures she might as well do something somewhat normal. Barge normal, anyway.]

I’ll be there.
