Well well, what an inviting proposition. I graciously accept. Any clicking you may hear is the sound of my bullshit knobs turning down to "Nearly Tolerable".
Holy shit, time to class our exchanges up! 8ut this is serious talk. Real serious talk. And I'll have you know I 8n't 8ullshitting you on account of the topic I'd like to address.
A part of me really wants to ask what happened on that f8teful day. And a part of me wants to threaten you in exchange for "letting it happen", 8ut........
Hey! There was a "8ut" there, you 8utt! Honestly, we 8oth know John. We 8oth know just........ how he is. All things considered, we have a common ground with this particular young man. And to 8e honest (gasp) with you, I'm sick of having all this ugliness around when we're treading on said ground.
To an extent! Don't get me wrong, I h8 you as much as I am sure you h8 me, 8ut. I don't know, the whole John thing is kind of a thing in which I have considera8le investment. I'm sure you can understand thaaaaaaaat much.
Your level of consideration simply astounds me You are a true saint.
[Rose just sounds a bit bored. Her bullshit meters are going up into dangerous red levels.]
I see no reason why it should be difficult to put on a friendly facade for the sake of a dear mutual friend. I do, after all, care for him very much. It would be selfish to continue to upset him.

What a perfectly reasonable conclusion to jump to.
I have always been in the habit of attacking my best friends for no reason, after all.

An understandably urgent cause.
[One which she does understand, with a certain amount of pain.]
I suppose that I could bite back my animosity towards you occasionally. Perhaps on days beginning with "M".
[That would be more sarcasm, Serket.]
no subject
I hear the repercussions are more than messy.
[She can sarcasm too!
Er, dubiously.Look at her go.]Whatever, though.
We can do the whole 8iting sarcasm thing. Play that game. It will 8e gr8.
no subject
I particularly like your insinuation that I would be the one beaten into the ground.
[She sounds completely pleasant, as if she's talking about flowers or hot chocolate or something.]
Well, in that case, let the games begin.
I'm up for it if you are.
no subject
It's only polite when there's real talk going down! Look at all this consider8tion!
[She sounds... facetious. But not quite venomous! Golly.]
Fine! I here8y invoke this particular parlay for the sake of a certain Eg8ert!
That was........ a lot easier than I thought it was going to 8e.
