[fending]

Type better

1/2

[nterwebz]

no

2/2

[nterwebz]

[ And so, she calls him! ]

Really, Fidelio? My typing is fine!

[fending]

[ sighs ]

It really isn't. Oughtta be embarrassed lookin' like that much of an idiot when people who haven't even been writin' that long are more coherent.

1/2

[nterwebz]

I hate to tell you, but after a while, things start going backwards. Typin' all proper is seen as real old school. It's a cultural thing!

2/2

[nterwebz]

[ And she sobers a little bit. ]

Anyway, is this guy straight or do I need to keep an eye on him?

[fending]

I'll take old over unreadable.

[ ...

there's a second of silence, like he's debating what the hell she just asked him, but then he quickly settles on the most probable option based on context. ]

He's part of Will's gang, so. However dodgy you think he is, this fella's about the same.

[nterwebz]

[ Better than some of the more negative alternatives, she thinks. She's seen Will dodgy about some things and he's a terrible liar, but she'll take that over an outright hostile toward Fidelio and Basilio. She'd taken pretty good measure of him, too, enough that she can pack that away and ask about another important thing.

She nods. ]

Speaking of, did you three ever sort things out?

[fending]

...Yeah, he finally came clean about some stuff a while back, after blaggin' our heads for months.

[ and fidelio's still got mixed feelings about it, but at least they're done with the shitty and painfully obvious lies now. hopefully. ]

Is the man just standin' there right now while you're talkin' with me?

[nterwebz]

C'mon, Fidelio. Give me some credit.

[ The look she gives him. ]

I left him safe and sound a little while ago.

[fending]

[ well i have been assuming this was voice so he does not see the look nor would he react to it if he did!!!

also there are a few things he will give her credit for, but not being overbearing or trapping people in annoying interactions is not one of them. ]

How the hell would I know? It sounded like you still had him in your sights the way you were talkin'.

[nterwebz]

[ It's Nao. She's going to give the phone looks. She's going to give Fidelio looks. She's going to give all the looks most of the time. ]

I asked you if he was straight, not the other way around.

[fending]

[ what the fuck is that supposed to mean ]

What?

[nterwebz]

[ Three other indirect variations of what she's trying to get across cross her mind. One even includes bread and where it's buttered, which... oh, she could go for some homemade bread right about now. With honey butter! ]

I wouldn't betray you to some guy from Euchronia who just got here even if he is Will's friend. He doesn't have a clue I know you, Bas, or Will let alone anything about your world. Hell, for all I knew at the time, he could've been some random guy not even from the same time or some sworn enemy of yours out for blood.

[ Her point stands. ]

[fending]

Huh. Didn't think you were taking it that seriously.

[ the face doodles and bad typing and everything kind of made it seem otherwise. ]

[nterwebz]

'Course I am! Somebody's gotta keep you on your toes makin' faces. It's easier for me to do that with you alive and well.
