Twice is Unacceptable

[flickerflash]

Who: Katie
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Vanquish
When: Morning after the Masquerade tbh.

[Probably there are large chunks of the fleet too hungover to pay attention. If she were actually sure of his name, Katie might be polite enough to just direct it straight to the jerk in private, but she doesn't, so waiting until she's reasonably sure people might not be around is the best she can do.

If they do, WELP. Not like she's going to tell them the truth, right? The first time, she was unnerved. Second? Katie's just annoyed.]


Dear ghost man,

you can always get away with things once but you're meant to learn from your mistakes! Twice is very rude.  if you try to hit me again I will have to do a lot more than take you to the dance in your underwear.

Love,

Dorothy

not my fault you jump around everywhere without warning.

wouldn't happen if you start respecting someone's boundaries.

[Wow Max

wow

...she has no idea what you mean but you're being an asshole.]

There are lots of different places on this world, aren't there?
probably a big loud dance was the nicest place.

it's not the nicest.

stop sneaking up on people, they might try to swing a wrench at you.

they don't know who you are or why youre there in the moment.

voice so there

[flickerflash]

[Only she wasn't sneaking up on him, not deliberately, and she switches to voice, sounding tight and waspish.]

Maybe you should stop trying to hurt everything that doesn't move the way you want it to! You took me by surprise too and you don't see me trying to smack you in the face!

Some people are different than others.

Some hit people in the face with wrenches if they surprise them.

...

So don't do that.

voice

[flickerflash]

Have you hit a lot of kids in the face with wrenches, then?

You can go to prison for that, you know.

voice

[theroadwarrior]

Hmph. Unlikely.

[He sighs.]

Just be more careful with — ... what it is you do.

[Fuck if he knows what you are.]

voice

[flickerflash]

[Huff.]

I'll be more careful if you're more careful.

[INEFFECTIVE, MY HEART IS A BROKEN SHELL.]

Wishful thinking. Don't rely on others to be cautious when you're reckless.

[so no he's blatantly ignoring your dumb compromise]

voice

[flickerflash]

[Well dude that was her one attempt at giving you an out so you know what, fuck you. She smiles like the sun.]

Then don't rely on others to be forgiving when you're just as bad.

[Small child just hung up on you Max]

[Good, shut up.]
