FIFTY-EIGHT

[tehpuck]

A ball? Oh, you have my attention.

Who wants to go with me?

Now, this is how you celebrate winter. New Years, that was always a good holiday, wether I could remember it in the past or not. The New Years of 318 BCE was a good one, and 2000 wasn't that bad, either.

Who'll be supplying the wine?

Matchmaking now, too? We'll have to start calling you Yenta.

[tehpuck]

You're aware that means I'm allowed to call you whatever I want, then, right?

[ohrosalita]

See, you keep making this threat, Robin. I'm starting to suspect you of crying wolf.

[tehpuck]

I've held off out of respect for you, so far, no wolves involved.

[ohrosalita]

You're sure you don't just need time to think up something truly awful?

[tehpuck]

Believe me, if I were angry enough with you to call you something truly awful, I wouldn't stop at something so juvenile as name-calling.

[ohrosalita]

Fair enough, I'll have to hope things never get to the sticks-and-stones stage, then. Though if it did, hiring an assassin is as easy as ordering a pizza in the city right now, if you'll believe the latest ad on the network.

[tehpuck]

Oh, assassins are distasteful, I'd do it myself, no worries.

[ohrosalita]

Distasteful works. Pointless was my own take on it.

I figured you'd be the hands-on type.

[tehpuck]

I dislike them, for the most part, why hire someone to do what you can do yourself? Waste of money, I tell you.

I'm very... hands-on.

[ohrosalita]

Especially when you'll only need to hire them again 24 hours later.

You should tell that to your potential dates.

[tehpuck]

Exactly.

Oh, I do.

[ohrosalita]

Think you might have room for me on your dance card?

[tehpuck]

I'd be delighted to, Rose.

[ohrosalita]

Thanks, Robin. At least I won't be a wallflower all night.

[tehpuck]

Of course not. You're the queen of all flowers, remember.
