I don't think I have any asks at the moment that would be considered too crazy.

The current situation isn't ideal for that. We don't need further distractions and you aren't quite desperate enough to do anything I want. Yet.

[There was no need to include that last part and yet she did anyways.]

[nutkick]

[ not desperate enough? watch him dismiss that jab even when it hurts. ]

how about a normal deal, huh? in exchange for your help to find where they've been taken. like ... i could pay for a spa day for you. or, buy you a fancy dress?

i'm not asking for much. you're a lot smarter than me, and i could use your help.

[ he knows that's not the endgame between them, but is it really impossible for them to cooperate a bit? just once? maybe. ]

[kubricks]

[She'll make him wait a little for her answer. It's not necessary, she could've answered quickly enough, but she's enjoying this.]

That's acceptable.

I do have one additional condition to ask. I don't think you'll object to it.

[nutkick]

... what is it?

[ he's nervous regardless. ]

[kubricks]

[Oh, she's sure there's some apprehension there, but it really is a small ask.]

Watch my dog if something happens to me during this.

I don't think it will but I'd rather you take care of him than someone on my team.

[nutkick]

[ ... ]

... sure.
i can do that ...

[ not really what he expected. will that dog claw his face or something? who knows. ]
