Ah, hello. You've reached Sophie, but I must be in the midst of something. If you have a question about self-defense or Teachers' Council, leave a message letting me know what precisely you're interested in and I'll get back to you.

...everyone else, do as you do, I suppose.

One does not generally eat with a trident. But if one did, I suppose it would have to be the fish course.

Girl-you?

[voice]

[superissues]

Seems logical. No rules about stabbing then?

You know how sometimes you end up in an alternate reality? But like several dozen other realities got their first? It was like that.

And for some reason, I or she was blonde. Go figure! She kept the leather jacket though.

[voice]

[hollowchild]

Oh, there are many rules about stabbing, although many of them could be summarized as 'don't.'

...no, I can't say I do, but it's not something entirely outside the realm of possibility, all things considered. But you would look very strange blonde.

[voice]

[superissues]

At least that one's simple!

Very well within the realm of possibility as it happens. At least more possible than me ever etiquetting right. I'm trying to think if I've ever even owned a suit and coming up 'no.'

[voice]

[hollowchild]

You aren't missing much, really. Most of it is quite tiresome and I have little desire to ever visit court.

[voice]

[superissues]

... are triangles involved?

[voice]

[hollowchild]

Not...generally. Why would they be?

[voice]

[superissues]

Then I will trade you etiquette for trigonometry.

[voice]

[hollowchild]

...trigonometry?

[voice]

[superissues]

Studying triangles and apparently waves.

[voice]

[hollowchild]

But why? What is it for?

[voice]

[superissues]

Chrushing the hopes and dreams of high school students to better prepare them for the adult world? I don't know.

[voice]

[hollowchild]

An interesting goal.

[voice]

[superissues]

The most interesting thing about the entire subject.

Not going for it?

[voice]

[hollowchild]

I think I'll keep etiquette.

[voice]

[superissues]

Can't say I blame you.

Well, guess I'd better leave you to your many forks.

[voice]

[hollowchild]

Mm.

...hey, Kon.

[voice]

[superissues]

Sophie?

[voice]

[hollowchild]

Thank you.

[voice]

[superissues]

...

It's cool. You don't have to thank me.

For anything.

[voice]

[hollowchild]

No, I don't have to.

Perhaps they're small things to you, but...not to me.

[voice]

[superissues]

It's not that they're small. It's just when you have to say thank you, it sound so --[ unreciprocated. Geez self. Projecting much? ] -- formal.

Like, I'd have been happy with 'Bye, Kon, and take your triangles with you.'

[voice]

[hollowchild]

[that almost makes her laugh, and she reaches for his flippant tone, mostly because she has the feeling that meaning is getting lost somewhere]

You can take your triangles. But the rest isn't something I've had to be able to take for granted and I still don't really know what to do with it, so take your thanks with your triangles, and then we won't have to speak of it anymore.

[voice]

[superissues]

Fine, then. I will take my triangles.

[Kon appreciates that, Sophie.]

And Sophie?

[voice]

[hollowchild]

Yes?
