What, you can't talk your way into having a placeholder apartment to move into if you end up winning? And I thought your silver tongue could get you everything.

[dendarii]

Of course I could. But I like our house in De Chima.

[failureisntachoice]

Are you unfamiliar with the concept of safe houses?

[dendarii]

... In what sense?

[failureisntachoice]

You don't see any benefit to having somewhere safe you can run to if shit goes down in another city?

[dendarii]

Ah. I do, of course, but ...

[failureisntachoice]

But...?

[dendarii]

... I love our home in De Chima too much. Makes me very biased.

[failureisntachoice]

You wouldn't have to live in all of them. You'd have them set up for emergencies. And if you get elected to ambassador, you can convert it to a real place to live.

[dendarii]

[ Miles considers that, unable to deny the logic of it ... ]

I'll have to set Mark to it.

[failureisntachoice]

[ She shrugs. ]

Something to keep in mind. It'd give you somewhere to run to if you stick your nose in shit again.

[dendarii]

As is inevitable with me, it seems...

[ A soft sigh. ]

You should know that I had another incident with Persephone.

[failureisntachoice]

Another? How long ago? And why is this the first I'm hearing of it?

[dendarii]

Because it happened over text and I handled it. No injuries or panic attacks.

[failureisntachoice]

How long ago? She isn't tracking you down to meet you here, is she?

[dendarii]

No. God no. And it was - a little while ago? She was mad I didn't like her music.

[failureisntachoice]

It sounded like crap and had you freaking out. What the hell did she expect you to think of it?

[dendarii]

That's basically what I said. I don't know what her problem is.
