[otiosity]

You're such a pal, Nate. I'll do my best not to shoot myself and disappoint you.

[sketchycharacter]

Good.

Just so you know, if you die I'm going to make fun of you in memoriam forever.

[otiosity]

So if I make it out you'll buy me a drink then?

[sketchycharacter]

Maybe. Maybe not. You'll have to survive to find out.

[otiosity]

Going to go with "yes" because you're such a gentleman who would definitely buy a lady who survived a game and freed slaves a drink.

[sketchycharacter]

One drink.

[otiosity]

One strong one ought to do the trick. After that last planet I think I've lost my tolerance. At least I'm a cheap date now.

[There's the sound of a scuffle like perhaps some people are being fried right now!]

[sketchycharacter]

[Unconsciously, he's nodding slightly in approval.]

Just don't keep me waiting too long. I might get bored and find a replacement date.

[otiosity]

You can never replace me in your heart. I'm stuck there. Like an unfortunate parasite chewing away.

[sketchycharacter]

Or a tumor.

[otiosity]

At least if I'm a parasite I need to make sure you live.

[More yelling, gunshots, the sound of someone picking up a gun and inspecting it.]

[sketchycharacter]

Uh-huh.

[Distracted now by the background sounds.]

Hawke, do you know what a safety is?

[otiosity]

Something that's the opposite of my entire life?

[sketchycharacter]

It's not just that.

[Quickly—well, as quick as he can from someone from medieval magic land—he walks her through the safety, how to load and unload the gun, etc etc.]

If you can, go for headshots, but don't pretend you're a marksman when you just picked up a gun for the first time. And remember it can be used against you, too.
