Let's look at it a different way then... What would you be willing to pay?

[outrageon]

Hmm... I dunno. How do I know it's gonna be any good?

[tothosewhobait]

You don't. Feel free to wonder forever.

[outrageon]

Well, I did see your tentacle. Remember?

So it's probably just more of that.

[tothosewhobait]

If you say so. I will neither confirm nor deny.

[outrageon]

Oh, like you're not just going to tell me I don't have anything you want, anyway.

[tothosewhobait]

Why would I say that?

[outrageon]

I can't show you what I really look like, for one thing.

Second, I don't do work, and I don't do favors.

You're probably just going to play 4D Mind-Chess with me until I remind you that both of us said we're not making any deals.

[tothosewhobait]

Then I suppose you have no choice but to make me like you enough to want to show you. Boo hoo.

[outrageon]

Oh, so you're going to tell me what it takes to get on your good side, then?

[tothosewhobait]

I trust you to figure it out.

[outrageon]

[leaning her chin in her hand]

Oh, c'mon. You can at least tell me if I'm on the right track.

I mean, we're out here having fun, and everything, aren't we?

[tothosewhobait]

I take it you won't mind starting then? What does it take to get on your good side then?

[outrageon]

Wait— why do you think I got you out here, then?

[if not, you know, to get on his good side.]

We're like, hanging out, you— were super funny the last time I saw you.

You could stand to be a bit more flattering, but... I think you're on the right track get there someday.

You know, if you keep up the effort.

[tothosewhobait]

…so we are actually hanging out?

[outrageon]

Well— what did you think we were doing?

[tothosewhobait]

Well…I know you said we were hanging out, but I assumed that was perhaps a cover?

Though…I thought it was maybe too fun to be a trick… So I am glad it is not. A trick, that is.

[outrageon]

Girl, if it was a cover, you wouldn't know it was a cover.

[She crosses her arms, tapping her foot—]

But, I dunno. I just figured we could actually hang out. While you're sober.

[And a bit more of a mumble;]

It's just stupid if my friend's boyfriend doesn't like me, or whatever.

[tothosewhobait]

I didn’t…exactly dislike you before. I was just…

[outrageon]

—Jealous?

[tothosewhobait]

What can I say? I’m a jealous guy.

[outrageon]

Then it works out you'd have a thing for Envy, doesn't it?

[Resting her... elbows? on the dance bar and resting her chin in her hands.]

But... as much as I love the idea of turning you green every time you see me— don't get me wrong, I really do— I'm pretty sure there's no reason to worry.

You can always pretend to be jealous, though. Makes me feel pretty.

[Batting her lashes. This is her idea of a joke maybe]

[tothosewhobait]

I was going to say the same thing.

[Bats his own lashes back at her with an exaggerated pout]

Oh Velvet, if only I were as cool as you. What is your secret? You have to tell me!

[outrageon]

Now, if I give away all my secrets, what'll be left for you to be jealous of, hm?

[tothosewhobait]

You’ve got your looks. Your pretty face. And don’t underestimate the importance of body language.
