Curses can be strange like that.

...How have you been?

[team_sociopath]

Oh, I'm all right.

You been all right?

[deadly_legacy]

Mm, yes.

The play I was in is over now.

[team_sociopath]

How'd it go?

[deadly_legacy]

Very well I think. Neil seemed happy. [He knows the most about it, making him the expert and, really, she mostly did it to make him happy even if she ended up enjoying it quite a bit on her own.]

So, you weren't there? [She couldn't really pick out everyone in the audience after all.]

[team_sociopath]

Plays aren't really my thing. [Tommy's not big on sitting still that long and watching other people do stuff.] Though I would've come if I'd realized you were an actress, maybe.

[deadly_legacy]

[Even though it was followed up by a maybe...] Really? [She might smile a little.]

[deadly_legacy]

[team_sociopath]

[deadly_legacy]

It's just that I'd understand if you were.

[team_sociopath]

I'm not.

[deadly_legacy]

I'm... I'm very glad to hear that.

[team_sociopath]

[He still might cause some trouble if he ever finds out the whole story, but it wouldn't be her he was mad at.]

Are you all right?

[deadly_legacy]

[Well, if he reads Suzaku's network post he could probably figure it out.]

It's not the first time people have seen what happened. It gets a little easier...

[team_sociopath]

If anyone messes with you, you just let me know.

[deadly_legacy]

[Smiles softly.] You're a good friend.
