[raised eyebrow back]

[opheliac]

Hmmmm.....

[ she is really thinking about what to ask him, give her a minute. ]

[conflictresolution]

[This is going to be a ridiculous question. He just knows it.]

[opheliac]

How many times have you sneaked into my room? Are you reading my diary right now?

[conflictresolution]

Before I can answer, I need to know: are you suggesting a particular timeline for this question?

No, I am not reading your diary right now.

[opheliac]

Since we've been cooped up here.

[conflictresolution]

I check in on you to see if you're home and sleeping usually once a night then. Check if you are safe and not being afflicted by nightmares.

[opheliac]

Aww, what a softie.

[conflictresolution]

I am not.

[Don't say that on a public forum!]

[opheliac]

Okay, okay, I'll take it back, my monster of destruction!

[conflictresolution]

A preferred descriptor, yes.

[opheliac]

Next question! Who is under your radar, besides the obvious?

[conflictresolution]

For what point and purpose? Technically everyone I can keep there.

[opheliac]

Because this is a fun game and I wanna know.

[conflictresolution]

Then I already answered. Everyone I can.

Who is on yours?

[opheliac]

The cupcake is always under my radar, but she's grown pretty stale the last few months. She's not too much of a threat, just annoying. Jerry and the council, for sure, wherever those airheads are.

Then there's good old Ricky. He scaled up to the number two spot. That stick with legs' been causing waaaaaaay too much trouble for me.

[conflictresolution]

Indeed, those of our world seem to be rather quiet lately. Perhaps they are settled into life her and have no reason to cause trouble. [He doesn't believe that.] I expect the Council and Jerry will make a return after a reset.

He's worked that high on the list, hmm? Has he caused insult lately?

[opheliac]

Not recently, but I know people like him. I've caught him in a lie once or twice, and people who lie are also sneaky. People who are sneaky, are people you need to keep a close eye on.

If they're doing it to other people, then they're going to you, too. Maaaaybe not now, but later when it's very convenient for them. Or who knows! He could be lying to you already, keeping all sorts of stuff from you, and he will probably never tell you.

[ a beat. ]

Forever, he's gonna let you walk around in the dark of obliviousness, until he stabs you right in the heart. And then what will happen? Will he pick you up? Say he's sorry? Or will he let you bleed out with a smile on his face? Because in his eyes, you should have seen it coming. But you were soooooo blinded by his fancy-schmancy words to read between the lines.

But that'll never happen to me! — I spend many days and nights watching people. So I know what to look out for. I'm not a poor sap like everyone else here.

[conflictresolution]

People like other people; that isn't unusual. I expect that we have all caught one another in little white lies now and again, and again, I don't find that unusual, especially where we once lived.

Perhaps he is, but his requests have been business related and there is no benefit lying to me about what he needs for his training sessions. I also find that people are entitled to their secrets; we don't divulge everything that went on with our lives to everyone we meet.

It feels like you are looking for reason to dislike him.

It's nice to know that you believe me to be a poor sap. And everyone else you associate with.

[opheliac]

You're being awful touchy, Pops. I didn't say you're a poor sap, I would never call you that...! I said everyone else is.

And are you reeeallly doubting my skills? The skills you've taught me? Careful how you answer that question, Silco, I am but a split image of you. And what you say about me, also reflects on you.

[conflictresolution]

Am I not part of everyone else you previously referred to? You didn't say you and I, just you and then everyone else.

Do you want to be the split image of me?

[opheliac]

Right! You're not everyone else. Sheesh, isn't it obvious? I think I've made myself perfectly clear, you big dope. But you're my dope, so it's a pass.

You are my role model. I've always looked up to you. Aaaaand Vi too, of course. — Can't leave her out!

[conflictresolution]

Clearly not when it comes to broad generalities.

Have you? [He swore that he annoyed her, as was most parent-daughter relationships.] Yes of course. Who could forget your sister.

[opheliac]

Yes, my kisses said so.

[conflictresolution]

I suppose they do. Apparently I've done something right if you look up to me.
