It's the reason I kept speaking to you. It's not the reason I like you.

[priorly]

One would thing the first followed on from the second.

[badgerlock]

Yes, and still.

[priorly]

So why -do- you like me.

[badgerlock]

That you never seem to want compliments.

[priorly]

I can't deny, I'm but a humble soul.

But you do like me. I like you.

[badgerlock]

And I can't even blame a fondness for someone else.

[priorly]

You could try. Perhaps you remind me of my mother.

[badgerlock]

Then you had a very peculiar upbringing.

[priorly]

Well of course I did, look how i turned out.

[badgerlock]

Caring and considerate?

[priorly]

I thought I tormented you.

[badgerlock]

Cruel and capricious?

[priorly]

As long as I'm pretty, why not.

[badgerlock]

Sympathetic and nervous. Scared, and lonely.

[priorly]

[Well. A hard deflection on that.]

You still haven't said pretty.

If you're hoping to move in, a little vacuous flattery will get you far.

[badgerlock]

I don't like Byerly. You're safe from my insisting on living with you.

[priorly]

What happened there?

It's not just Byerly, we have a little princess and a little Napoleon filling out the rooms. You're practically a prince, you'd fit right in.

[badgerlock]

A clash of personalities.

Normally I would never say that. That I dislike someone.

[priorly]

It's that bad?

[badgerlock]

No.

I'm usually more circumspect. People guess I dislike someone. It's a mannered sort of thing. How I was raised.

You make me want to talk. Or this device does.

[priorly]

You can't get your point across with a look on one of these. I could say Byerly, you could look disgusted, and I'd know.

So, another roommate. What's your type?

[badgerlock]

I don't know. Maybe I'll go find space in the barracks.

[priorly]

Piled up in one room with a heap of sweaty bodies. Well.

I suppose there's merit to that.

[badgerlock]

A heap?

Everyone gets their own bedroll.
