Okay, Mr. After-school special. [she's amused.]

[shaft]

Thank you, I'm available for bookings anytime.

[ hehe ]

I do hope you're able to get through to him though. It's a stupid thing to die just because you're uncooperative, but he might get voted out if we can't find a killer one week.

[evocationary]

Yeah. [a sigh, and she leans back.]

If people vote him out because he's an asshole, it'll just reinforce everything he thinks about himself. It's a shitty cycle.

[shaft]

[ hmm interesting ]

Sounds like you understand him pretty well, that should help.

[evocationary]

Yeah. I know a person or two like him. I've got practice.

[shaft]

Even with practice...

[ He thinks about something. ]

Sometimes you just kind of fail at sympathizing with multiple rather than improving.

[evocationary]

[claude]

Speaking from experience?

[shaft]

Yeah. [ rubs his head ] Getting through to people using emotion isn't my strong suit.

I prefer sticking to logic and reason.

[evocationary]

Hmmm. Well, logic and reason aren't my strong suits, so. Together we're a super team.

[shaft]

I guess I don't mind that. [ thoughtful ] Nice knowing there's backup.
