Hello. This is Daryl again. Ran out of space. Said it was going to have to take it to a second comment. Sorry about sending two. Would you still be up for that ride?
no subject
Yeah, I'd still be up for it if you're still interested.
Did you have a time in mind?
no subject
no subject
What's the name of the bar?

I mean it doesn't have to be one.

Could just be a meet up and a ride.
no subject
call;
Natasha? This is Evie Frye. I was hoping to meet with you to discuss an opportunity that's come to our mutual attentions.
no subject
There are only so many things this could be regarding.]
Face to face?
[Some things were better discussed in person, but there's also more risk. Hard to say if they're still on friendly terms now that Evie's had time to do her homework.]
That shouldn't be too hard. Though if you want to tell me to stay away from your job, we can do that over the phone.
no subject
[She considers, truthfully. She's read some of the terrible things Natasha has done, but she's been laying low. If nothing else, she's a force to be reckoned with. But that's just it- she was working for people bigger than herself. Natasha didn't seem the sort to get joy from killing, to kill bystanders for fun, or to not care about the lives of civilians.
But people could surprise you.]
I want to see what you're capable of first hand. We can discuss the rest later.
no subject
[Start out somewhere public and neutral. That seemed like playing nice, something they could both agree on.]

I'm messaging to check in on you. Last I saw you you looked a little rough.
I should have contacted you sooner, for that I apologize.
Drinks?
[So formal in text. At least when she asks things like this.]
no subject
I'm doing okay. No worries.
Wouldn't mind a drink though. I could meet you somewhere?
no subject
10?

ICly last week
[ What follows is a picture of Lancelot's breakfast table, on which stands a bouquet of white roses and... a box with a suit in it? ]
From Jean-Claude.
no subject
White roses traditionally represent hope and purity. Could be a fresh start?
As for the suit
Kinda looks like he's asking you on a date.
no subject
[ Troubles here, he assumes, referring to his being kidnapped by Raymond's lackeys.
Is a suit and flowers really meant to make that better. Is a date?! ]
no subject
Did he accidentally ruin a suit you already had?
no subject
no subject
When did he try to stab you?
no subject
no subject
Either way, seems like he's trying to make a fresh start.
Still looks like a date to me, though.
no subject
Even without the part where we had a sword fight.
no subject
[Though with Jean-Claude, it's somewhat hard to say.]
no subject
[ Sweet summer child, no. ]
no subject
When it's something else. Say, political.
Or an invitation to speak again.
no subject
It seems excessive just for asking to meet.
[ But also he'd very much like it to not be a romantic date, so. That's a little reassuring. ]
no subject
He isn't exactly on your good side.
no subject
You're right. This IS an expensive suit though. I think it's tailored, and I don't want to know how he knew the right measurements.
no subject
Do you have a tailor?
no subject
[ Who even has a tailor these days? Certainly not him. ]
no subject
But point taken.]
Try not to think about it too hard.
You going to talk to him?
no subject
'Thank you kindly for the suit but having been recently molested by other members of your faction I'd like to decline for now.' ? ]
Maybe? But not right now
[ Too soon and all. ]
no subject
No reason to feel like you have to accept the apology now.
