024- RELIGIOUS OBSERVANCES ARE FOR SQUARES (LIKE PANTS)

[uberboned]

Three points.

(1. I'm not an idiot. I know what this week is. By all means, have a Southern Baptist-style potluck supper for all I care. I'm not gonna be the little archangel that rained on your religious parade.

(2. In case you're all worried, no, I don't celebrate April Fool's Day. I'm a little more professional than that, thanks. Although, given the sheer number of dick moves people pull on that day, it's my busiest time of the year. ...That and Thanksgiving. I'm not sure why.

Anyway.

(3. I'm dragging Irene into the CES tomorrow. We'll be gone... Oh, a good three or four days. Maybe. If you need anything.... Y'know what? Just don't need anything.

Uh, yes, ma'am. I am.

...Miss Talbot talks ab- Oh. [And now Bruce is just kind of wincing at what he imagines Bela's said about him.] I, uh. I don't think she's mentioned you. ...Not to say that she doesn't think highly of you, just that she's never really talked about anyone in particular when I'm around. So it's probably just. Me.

Video. I need to check that line with Jae, so this may get editted later.

[Irene waves a hand, playing it down] Occasionally. Something about sandwiches and - what was it? 'A pathological insistence on courtesy'. Unusual, in these parts, I must say.

[Bruce is tripping over his own conversational feet, and Irene just smiles mildly] I do not require the knowledge that she speaks to others of me to know Bela's feelings, but I do appreciate your, ah - solicitousness.

...Ah. [A kind of self-deprecating shrug.] Y-yeah, that does sound like Miss Talbot.

Oh. Well, okay then.
