Thought it'd get your attention. And hey, I was right. [ His tone's non-confrontational, almost calm for once. ] You did get pretty mad about it back then, didn't you?
[ He's pretty sure people don't break someone's joints for fun if there's no personal stake to it, but hey, he could be wrong. ]
[Suddenly, she's on the other side of the desk, and she's grabbing his neck - effortlessly lifting him just enough to make him have to stand on his tip toes.]
If you think for a second that you can play games with me and get away with it - I'll show you where your sack of shit friend is by making sure you join him!
[ Well, shit. He's too hot to die! He forces down the urge to fight back, pretty sure that would only make things worse for him, but hopefully she didn't expect to make him cry and stutter because that's not happening. ]
So not fired, I take it.
[ There's the briefest baring of his teeth, something between a pained grimace from her grip, and... a smirk. ]
Shit, you're beautiful when you're angry.
[ IS HE OKAY IN THE HEAD? ]
[ DEFINITELY NOT. But look on the bright side, maybe he lost it out of fear or something. ]
[ His back collides with it painfully and he slides down with a grunt. He'll probably end up either on the window pane or the floor. Damn, it's a long way down. Thank fuck for sturdy glass? ]
April Fool's?
[ YES SQUALO I'M SURE SHE'S FEELING VERY HUMOROUS RIGHT NOW ]
Well, not the last part. [ important distinction. he does have a thing for people that can make him evaporate at the force of will. ] Do I get an answer?
Her eyes flash like lightning, and suddenly he's being lifted, as if in a field of static. It prickles his skin as he's lifted off the ground, and promptly thrown in the general direction of her book case.]
You'll get my foot up your ass you smug sack of shit!
[ But does his hair stand up from it because it probably looks pretty funny at least. ]
[ He grits his teeth in anticipation this time, but there's still a pained sound when he hits the hard surface, several books probably falling on top of him. ]
[ He opens his mouth to say that it's definitely not his kink, but realizes that maybe, maybe that's not the best idea right now. ]
Not... necessary. You're making a point.
[ ...as close to an apology as it'll get, probably. ]
[Lesedi's cellphone rings. For a moment she looks like she's going to ignore it and carry on, but then she whips it out practically yelling into the phone as she answers:]
What?!
[There's a pause as she listens to whoever is on the other side - she relaxes just a fraction.]
Cass - no! You would not believe the shit I am putting up with today. It is absolutely insane.
[She strides over and gives Squalo one last kick - not as hard as she could - and keeps talking on the phone.]

With a roar of fury, she just kind of hurls him at the windows behind her desk. They don't break, at least.]

I'm at my wit's fucking end.

Not even a hint?

I am going to cut your balls off.
[Then briefly returns to her phone.]
I have to handle this. I'm going to be late. Save a spot for me - just joking, I own every seat in the building.
[She hangs up, and then dials a new number.]
Security? Hi. I'm sending a package down to the labs for you. One that is quite possibly withholding information.
no subject
[ --wait, what. ]
Vooi, I answered everything you asked!
[ THIS IS UNFAIR. ]
no subject
Prep the equipment. He'll be right over.
[She closes the phone and leans down to him, speaking in a comparatively soft tone.]
Never...Never. Talk down to me again.
no subject
I didn't. Bad day?
[ ...at least he doesn't ask if it's that time of the month. ]
no subject
Bye!
[And then he'll fall unconscious.]
