...Let me say this plainly. This is a large ship, which apparently has two other pilots I can speak with if I need any expertise in that area. It wouldn't be difficult for me to avoid you altogether if you're going to act objectionably. However, I would like to get along well with everyone here. Please don't put me in a position where I don't have that option.

I was kidding, you know. If you're going to stick around, Adelina, you might want to learn how to take a joke.

[she pauses for another moment, frown persisting, before she relents.]

My apologies. You'll notice fairly quickly that detecting humor isn't one of my strengths.

I'll be less subtle next time. [ this too is a joke, said dryly. howard stark being "more subtle" is like stringing blinking lights around a flamingo. he also has one of those btw. ]

[bloodbiter]

Perhaps you could follow each up with a notice that you weren't serious, just so I can be certain.

[joking: an effort was made.]

If that's what it'll take for us to be friendly, then I'm willing to take that commitment. [ his mustache twitches, he's bemused. and let it never be said that he can't poke a bit of fun at himself as well. though he does have a thinner skin than some. ]
