open; Tuesday evening; cafeteria

[tevinteriscoming]

[So you decided to come to this spontaneous gathering. Not Dorian's gathering, mind. He's not leading this, it was just a suggestion some people made and one of those people who made it was Dorian.

But nonetheless, you are here, in the cafeteria, at the time suggested by Dorian.]

Well, you threatened me with your poison gun, which makes it pretty offensive.

[socloverit]

I didn't threaten anyone! What are you talking about?! [this wasn't the kind of offense we meant but she's sure offended. this is what happens when you're just so casually aggressive all the time, Clover] Why would I be stupid enough to use it if I didn't absolutely have to, anyway? Someone turns up dead, I turn up a suspect, and my gun's out of poison. I'm not a moron!

[antietam]

I think you said I shouldn't be messing with a girl who has a poison gun? [ Definitely taking that as a threat. ]

Anyway, when I asked you about it, you weren't exactly keen on saying it was poison. I'm pretty sure you were hoping no one would know what it was.

[socloverit]

Don't flatter yourself. I said nobody should be doing that—as in, people who aren't you, too. I was making the same point I am now. A deterrent is a defense. [just. more aggressively]

...And that's just 'cause it was you asking. [she. does not answer that promptly enough for it to sound entirely true.]

[antietam]

... I'd never spoken to you before? [ why is she so mean. ]

[socloverit]

So it was awfully rude of you to be so nosy from the get-go.

[major trauma left unaddressed for years and also she's a brat]

[antietam]

I tried to be as polite as possible.

[socloverit]

Tried, but failed.

[SORRY THAT SHE'S THE WORST]

[antietam]

[ KEEP BEING POLITE, ADAM. ] I'm sorry about that. I didn't mean to offend you, I was concerned that an attempt to conceal poison would come back to bite us in this game.

[socloverit]

[points for effort, dude. not from her, but points]

Not that making it a confrontation made a difference when you knew already anyway.

[antietam]

I wanted to see if you would readily tell people or if you were going to keep it hidden. Now I know.

[socloverit]

Hmph! You know how I feel about nosy jerks, at least.
