video; around mid-day

[ The interior of Yako's office is pretty much a familiar sight by now, since most of her posts seem to made from there. She seems to be having trouble with the camera, though, since the feed keeps jerking around. Curiously, the microphone seems to be filled with the sounds of... snuffling? ]

Ah! Don't chew on that! Hang on, Mr. Holmes--

[ Yako's

Funny. He didn't strike me as a dog person. [OH HALE NAW. Like she's gonna let this go.]

[topslug]

You know Mr. Holmes? [ Oh, small world after all. ]

[youcandielater]

Something like that. [Smirk. ...Yes, she's intentionally trying to make this sound perverse just to see if Sherlock squirms. ZERO SHAME.]

[caveatwalls]

[No squirming. Just dead eyes.]

Need a more loyal companion for those lonely nights, Misato?

[Only on first name basis to avoid confusing her with Yako. Because... no.]

[topslug]

[ Actually, as it happens... ]

We're, ah... housemates, actually. Not related, though.

I'm not sure if we could handle having another dog around the house... [ Even if Reim does such a good job with Oscar. ]

[GDI, SHERLOCK. THIS IS WHY SHE HATES YOU. Also, sorry Yako, you're getting ignored.]

There's really not so much difference between men and dogs, so why bother? They only really come around when they want something and the rest of the time, they're a hassle.

[caveatwalls]

Dogs have keener senses, last I checked. And more prone to baseless affection.

[youcandielater]

Humans and baseless affection go hand in hand. It's part of what makes us human. We need stupid, petty contact. [And the fact that he clearly doesn't means... Something. She was going somewhere with that. She lost it. Shove it.]

[caveatwalls]

People usually have a reason for affection, poor as it may be.

[youcandielater]

[And Misato's THRILLING ARGUMENT TO THAT IS..]

Oh, just shut up.
