[Whoops taking a seat right by you.]

That's the type of humor I prefer, Miss Sen. Dark and ironic. Seems rather British in origin, doesn't it?

[lotuslife]

Dry and downright fuckin' rotten! I don't mind the Brits. Heh.

[wise_king]

...scream NO TAIWAN'S PURITY

[lotuslife]

...Mm. [checking Taiwan out appreciatively as she inhales on the cigar] Well, hello, babe.

[pinkplumblossom]

"Hmmm..."

[Smirks a little, winking.]

[lotuslife]

I'd better get off of this rooftop so I can get a better look at ya.

[Hey, there is a shadowy figure futzing around near the door step of a house, A VILLAIN PERHAPS?]

[lotuslife]

[DON'T MIND HER, JUST LIGHTING UP ANOTHER CIGAR]

[coolbowtie]

[AND HE GOES TO THE NEXT HOUSE]

[lotuslife]

[notices!!! and stands up, looking manly and anti-heroic and whatnot.] Who's there?
