And you believe them?

[dendarii]

Yes.

[failureisntachoice]

If he's not going to be a problem... Then I won't beat him upside the head.

[ There's a few minutes before she sends the next text: ] He seemed nice.

[dendarii]

Really. Most people say stiff.

[failureisntachoice]

I'm used to that.

Working at a coffee shop is a far cry from being a lord.

[dendarii]

I assure you it's a surprise for me too.

[failureisntachoice]

I bet. Do you know where he's living?

[dendarii]

... Yes. In the room next to mine.

[failureisntachoice]

...You're joking.

[dendarii]

Not in the slightest.

[failureisntachoice]

Well there goes having the house to ourselves.

[dendarii]

Good thing we're getting a hotel then.

[failureisntachoice]

For the next time. You planning to get one every time we go out or want to do something?

[dendarii]

We could always try your place.

[failureisntachoice]

No. We can't.

[dendarii]

... Why not?

[failureisntachoice]

Because I live with three men and I don't want to deal with trying to get them the hell out of the house when I want privacy.

[dendarii]

And it will be less awkward having sex in the room next to my pseudo-father?

[failureisntachoice]

No, it's just as damn awkward that's the problem.

[dendarii]

Let's just do the hotel for now and figure the rest out later.

[failureisntachoice]

I'm covering the one I planned to, you're getting the next one.

[dendarii]

Entirely fair. What do you say to setting up something for tomorrow night?

[failureisntachoice]

Yeah, I can get a room booked for then. Is it still safe to pick you up at the house or do you not want him knowing?

[dendarii]

No, please do. I'd like to introduce you.

[failureisntachoice]

We've met. Just... Not as your girlfriend.
