From:

knowmyplace

[He chuckles.]

As much as I would like to bear witness to that, I am afraid she was insistent upon getting my full permission and consent before she laid eyes on it.

Your warden was her former inmate, wasn't he?

From:

weirdnecro

I'm sure you'd love it to see me fight for your honor.

[She chuckled.]

He was. And he hid away mine so I couldn't set it on fire, and scatter the ashes over the Barge.

From:

knowmyplace

I would! Just as I would do for you.

Why destroy your file?

From:

weirdnecro

I would love to see you fight someone with your blade. Especially if you made them suffer for my sake.

[Sokie no, don't sound so into it.]

But I want no one to read, acknowledge, or interact with it.

I value my privacy.

From:

knowmyplace

What a luxury that is.

Are you still at odds with your warden?

From:

weirdnecro

I am awful like that, to seek such a thing.

And yes...and no. It's complicated.

From:

knowmyplace

I have the time.

From:

weirdnecro

Mmmm. Well, signore, this is not a conversation to have over these devices.

Where would you have us meet?

From:

knowmyplace

My cabin will do. It is quiet and I need not travel.

From:

weirdnecro

Then I shall come to you.

Give me a few minutes. Try not to die from impatience.

From:

knowmyplace

I suppose you will find out soon enough.

From:

weirdnecro

I suppose.

[Her voice is a little dry. But she comes down and knocks gently on the door.]

Signore? Are you a corpse?

From:

knowmyplace

[He answers the door and holds it back for her to enter.]

Of course not. How could I be, when I have such a lovely visage at my door?

From:

weirdnecro

Perhaps the idea of me coming by brought you back to life?

[She offered him a smile, stepping in and lightly touching his arm.]

You're looking quite well, despite of things.

From:

knowmyplace

[He slides an arm around her as he closes the door behind them.]

I am very good at keeping my annoyance contained.

From:

weirdnecro

So you are. I can't even see a bit of it on you.

[She moves to lean against him, brushing her hand over his chest.]

I knew I was more than annoyed when I learned of my pairing.

From:

knowmyplace

Because of your regard for your privacy?

[He sighs.]

Did you not realize what would come of it?

From:

weirdnecro

How do you mean? That someone would recieve it?

Yes, very well. John, Arthur and I had a discussion when we first learned of my status.

From:

knowmyplace

[He sighs.]

Good. Not everyone here seems to understand what they are coming on board for.

I would hate to think you wanted this without being told the truth.

From:

weirdnecro

No, it would have been...quite the problem if I had come in blind.

But I might have anyway. It was this or death. We're both over the barrel.

From:

knowmyplace

[He considers that, quiet and slight.]

So your relationship now with your warden?

From:

weirdnecro

Better now. We're more or less friends.

Why?

From:

knowmyplace

[Iago just laughs gently.]

That is the discussion you came down here to have, isn't it? Your relationship with your warden and how complicated it is.

Or was that just an excuse to invite yourself to my cabin?

From:

weirdnecro

I mean, I don't need an excuse to come over, signore.

[She smiles up at him, and offers a small shrug.]

It's complicated because...we're very similar in character. Not the same, but we are...much of the same mold. So it's difficult to pull stunts I could use on other wardens.
