ONE HUNDRED THIRTEEN

[tehpuck]

Contrary to popular belief and ubiquitous rumor of mysterious origin, no, the two love b-... star-crossed lovers, short and short-tempered have not, indeed, run off to elope. I know, I, too, was shocked that this was not the case; what other reason could there be to leave me all by my lonesome in the apartment? I, personally, considered it a gift

Excuse me. Eloped?

[tehpuck]

You didn't; I was oh so disappointed.

[captainshort]

Of course we didn't. Why would we?

[tehpuck]

Because you're both just itching to get each other's clothes off? Really; it's embarrassingly repressed. You're taking lessons from Ishiah or something, and that, right there, is truly frightening.

He's the Commander now, Robin. Trouble's not just my colleague anymore!

Oh, in-word romance? How risqué, Holly, I approve! I've taught you well, I see.

I'm not sure whether to be amused or horrified. He's pretty much by boss, okay? Head of the division.

[tehpuck]

Yes, exactly. Get some head, get a raise, everyone wins.

Yes?

I don't think so.

Fine, be a spoilsport. You are completely hopeless.

Not everyone can be like you, Robin. And I have a reputation to uphold.

What, a reputation of shrewery? You want him, don't you? Then take him. You don't have t be like me (very few can pull such a feat off) to still want what you want and then go out and get it.

No, of being a respectable officer of the LEP! I'm sure the rest of the recon jocks would just love to get wind of the only female officer getting cosy with the commander, but the Council would have my badge.

... Besides, he'd probably worry about protocol more than I would.

Protocol? Kinky.

But, thoughts to the present. Do you see any LEP here? No? Just two officers? Both mutually unhappy fr the same reason? Any sane person would know the proper ends to this, you're aware.
