Moon, I need to talk to you. Gene, I need a favor. Guards--the schedule will be updated shortly to account for absences, and you'll find it in the usual place
( Read more... )
[Later, Moon makes his way up to Bastet's place, slightly concerned about the apparently Insatiable Elevator, but it lets him arrive at her home unharmed.
He has no idea what she wants to talk to him about, but he figures he might as well get things over with. He knocks on the door.]
[Moon sucks at small talk. He hates it, there's no point to it, and it's uncomfortable. He opens the pizza box and peeks in at its contents. Then, while he's not looking at her...]
Just so we're clear, I don't need protection or therapy or whatever else while he's stuck in the Elevator. People are treating me like some fragile little doll that's gonna fall apart at a moment's notice.
I'm not weak and I don't fucking know why people think I am.

So what's so important?
[Best to just get down to business.]

What, I can't want to see you?
[Hands him the tea; it's cold enough, and sweetened, but not too much.]

You made it sound like it was important. I'm not really in the mood to chat about my feelings.

[You get a raised eyebrow, because really, Moon. She pours her own glass and deliberately takes a drink before speaking.]
And good, because I'm not in the mood either. You said you didn't care, so I got pizza. [She waves a hand towards the two boxes on the stove.]

And when have I ever suggested I saw you that way?
[Her voice is dry, but calm, and there's no irritation in her manner.]
