I'm okay with being set against higher standards. It's probably how it should be, anyway. I am pretty powerful.

[universal_charm]

I get that. But there's higher standards, and then there's impossible standards.

[takingkarabusiness]

True, though I'm not sure you know what my standards are.

[universal_charm]

_{[ He huffed. ]}

True, I don't. But I was thinking more about the public's standards.

[takingkarabusiness]

It takes a lot to gain the public trust.

_{[ Urgh, he can see this might go down a wrong track. The feeling isn't coming through - that he doesn't want her to crush herself beneath their expectations, as impossible as they might be. ]}

I don't doubt that.

...Anyway, it doesn't really hold here, and it's kind of... nice to be around people who have been through something similar. It's not really common at home.

[universal_charm]

I kind of got that idea. And if you ever wanna talk about it, I'll listen. And do my best not to go any kind of Dad on you.

[takingkarabusiness]

Thank you.

I feel like we could really go through the "dead parents' legacy" stuff sometime.

[universal_charm]

I'll do it - but you're providing the good alcohol to go along with it.

[takingkarabusiness]

It's a deal. You'll get the good stuff. It's kind of wasted on me.

[universal_charm]

Not sure how much it does to me either, but at least it still tastes good. And I will not be the only one drinking as we lay out our sad dead parent back stories.

[takingkarabusiness]

Right, something about a brand new liver.

You thought I forgot.

[universal_charm]

More or less brand new, I think.

_{[ Being purposefully vaaaaague. ]}

Thankfully, it doesn't effect my tastebuds.

[takingkarabusiness]

That's the important part.

[universal_charm]

Absolutely. That's why it's the good stuff.

[takingkarabusiness]

Fair enough. It does help if it tastes good.
