I12DT: Chocolate.

by **Will Stanton** » Sun Dec 08, 2013 9:11 pm

Will selected a piece of cake for Emily.

"Seriously, if you've never had chocolate, that's just not fair."

by **Emily Inque** » Sun Dec 08, 2013 9:12 pm

"Until a week ago I was a collection of cells inside a flask," Emily says. "I have not eaten many things."

"Hey, more we have in common. They still have some of me in tubes, I believe," he said, with a tight-lipped grin.

by **Emily Inque** » Sun Dec 08, 2013 9:35 pm

"Then they are like creating many younger versions of yourself," Emily says. "It will be nice to have friends, I suppose."

by **Will Stanton** » Sun Dec 08, 2013 9:36 pm

"No...no, I don't think that's it. I think they want to destroy the universe, or something.

I'm not in favor of that -- I live there."

by **Emily Inque** » Sun Dec 08, 2013 9:42 pm

"All the more reason to destroy it."

by **Will Stanton** » Sun Dec 08, 2013 9:44 pm

"...Eat your damn cake," Will laughed.

by **Emily Inque** » Sun Dec 08, 2013 9:47 pm

Emily takes a bite. Her eyes widen slightly and the corner of her mouth twitches.

"...Disgusting."

by **Will Stanton** » Sun Dec 08, 2013 9:49 pm

"...Really? Damn.

There's got to be SOME kind of food you'll like..."

by **Emily Inque** » Sun Dec 08, 2013 10:01 pm

Emily takes another bite, "It is truly awful. The worst thing I have ever tasted."

She quickly finishes her slice.

by **Will Stanton** » Sun Dec 08, 2013 10:02 pm

"You know what would make it worse? Mint frosting," Will nodded.

by **Emily Inque** » Sun Dec 08, 2013 10:08 pm

"I assume that you are trying to poison me," Emily says, "Most likely to hide the evidence of our affair."

"You do not have to worry. I will not tell anyone."

by **Will Stanton** » Sun Dec 08, 2013 10:09 pm

"If I wanted to poison you, wouldn't I have done it when I was already in your mouth?"

by **Emily Inque** » Sun Dec 08, 2013 10:20 pm

"You may have been trying to get me to lower my guard," Emily says. "You are very sneaky."

by **Will Stanton** » Sun Dec 08, 2013 10:22 pm

"That's what they tell me. That's why they're trying to kick me out of the country."

by **Emily Inque** » Sun Dec 08, 2013 10:41 pm

"This is causing you distress?"

by **Will Stanton** » Sun Dec 08, 2013 10:42 pm

"Honestly? Yes. Significantly.

I know, ha ha, I'm horrible," Will said, starting up to get more cake.

by **Emily Inque** » Sun Dec 08, 2013 10:52 pm

Emily doesn't respond, she just stares down at her feet.

by **Will Stanton** » Sun Dec 08, 2013 10:54 pm

"Here," Will says. "This one's a cheesecake. I prefer it to chocolate, usually," Will said, coming back.

by **Emily Inque** » Sun Dec 08, 2013 11:00 pm

"I am sorry that you are feeling distressed," Emily says.

by **Will Stanton** » Sun Dec 08, 2013 11:05 pm

"Eh, what are you going to do about it. I'll probably just have to run-that's what security is suggesting, anyway."

by **Emily Inque** » Sun Dec 08, 2013 11:12 pm

"....Oh." Emily says. She looks sad.

by **Will Stanton** » Sun Dec 08, 2013 11:14 pm

"Hey, buck up. Don't worry about me. Be glad you're not in a lab anymore! It's all gravy."

by **Emily Inque** » Sun Dec 08, 2013 11:52 pm

"I am not sad. It just seems like a waste," Emily looks at Will and considers him for a moment. "How much are you worth?"

by **Will Stanton** » Sun Dec 08, 2013 11:57 pm

"A was...how much am I worth? I'm afraid...what?" Will said, confused.

"I'm not 'worth' anything..."

by **Emily Inque** » Mon Dec 09, 2013 12:21 am

"That is what I imagined. This should make negotiations simple," Emily says. "I will buy you. That way any attempt to make you leave the country will be theft of personal property."

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Dec 09, 2013 12:22 am

Will blinked.

"OK, two things. One, you were in a test tube until, like, a week ago. You don't have any money.

Two, in the United Kingdom, it is not legal to buy and sell human beings. They'd never go for it."

by **Emily Inque** » Mon Dec 09, 2013 12:30 am

"I will have plenty of money once we rob the bank," Emily says.

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Dec 09, 2013 12:32 am

"Again, two things--we're NOT robbing a bank, as that's illegal, and it would get us both thrown in jail.

And it would get me kicked out of the country ANYway. Not to mention there's no guarantee the US would recognize me, either."

by **Emily Inque** » Mon Dec 09, 2013 12:56 am

"Then we do not get caught," Emily says. "For a criminal, you are not very good at this."

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Dec 09, 2013 12:57 am

"I'm not a criminal!

I'm a nothing--I've got no birth certificate, no high school diploma, no wedding registry, no passport. I never existed, and never will exist, no matter how many times I turn in the proper forms.

And no, I'm not turning to a life of crime! I'm one of the good guys."

by **Emily Inque** » Mon Dec 09, 2013 1:14 am

"If you do not exist, how do they keep finding you?" Emily asks.

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Dec 09, 2013 1:16 am

"They know where I am now," Will explains. "And people remember me.

But we live in a society of paper and documents and things, and THOSE all get deleted. Or erased."

by **Emily Inque** » Mon Dec 09, 2013 1:38 am

"Well, apparently you do not wish for my help," Emily says with a shrug. "I will return to the subject once you are more desperate."

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Dec 09, 2013 1:39 am

"Wait, are you being serious? I can't tell if you're being serious.

I...I AM pretty desperate. But you can't go robbing a bank!"

by **Emily Inque** » Mon Dec 09, 2013 1:43 am

"You are wrong. With my abilities I am perfectly capable," Emily says. "And once I am your Mistress, all your problems will be solved. And replaced with new problems of my own creation."

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Dec 09, 2013 1:44 am

"Listen, if you rob a bank, I'll have to turn you in. That's not allowed in polite society.

...and neither is slavery!"

by **Emily Inque** » Mon Dec 09, 2013 1:48 am

"My mother was a slave," Emily points out. "Also, a slut."

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Dec 09, 2013 1:49 am

"Not in any legally recognizable fashion," Will countered. "And...I don't think so, technically. I mean, I'm a bit prudish, so yeah, but I don't think so."

by **Emily Inque** » Mon Dec 09, 2013 1:51 am

"You are not an unbiased opinion," Emily says.
