compnetwork | Text - Sniping at Colleagues

[Okay Yamato snorted at that]

You're bad at humility. More like fearing for the safety of their not so perfect faces. I have no doubt that you would fly into a maddened frenzy if the paparazzi vultures descended upon you. It would be rather awe-inspiring to witness.

It's so very hard to be this beautiful. If I can't revel in it, then what is it for???

[You can almost hear him derisively laughing through his textual tears.]

Maybe I'll just start wearing a leather labcoat. The badboy look may be a good accent for my awe-inspiring ferocity and scientific mind.

You could dress as an stripper for all I care, so long as it doesn't impact your efficiency at work. Although as you only go outside once every full moon like a social werewolf, I would be the only one to appreciate such a thing.

Were strippers that common in JP's, or have I uncovered your secret preferences for lab attire?

Maybe we can design a new lab uniform, if you find my current apparel lacking. We can make it match the couch.

[wHAT ARE THEY EVEN DOING???????????????]

[FLIRTING: THE SOCIAL DERP EDITION I GUESS]

What is there not to like with lab attire? Nothing, really. It's better than what most civilians came up with in the name of 'fashion'. A certain woman that assisted JP's even wore - well, there wasn't enough fabric to call it 'clothing'. Or underwear, for that matter... So long as you're not practically naked, it would suit the couch when we're on it.

[The couch was like black anyway. Everything went with black]

That skimpy? But wouldn't her skin melt off if it came in contact with, like, any corrosive liquids??

[From sarcasm to incredulous in half a post. FLURTAN RITE]

I'd prefer not to be nude, thank you very much. So I suppose our current design will have to do.

...though I do confess, I find your own uniform much more stylish.

[I D E O]

It is a miracle how she came out of battles relatively unscathed, even with healing spells, I admit. However she was somewhat quick on her feet.

[Although she was too in your face for his tastes...]

Stylish? I suppose it is. The strings can be rather troublesome to deal with at times, but it was intended to cut a memorable figure. Haha, sometimes I doubt if it even does that.

[Yamato just wears clothes for clothes sake yamato you dolt just take the compliment]

[a long, embarrassed pause]

...i think it does

Your clothes, I mean. Cut a memorable figure

[what is he even saying anymore]

[...? Yamato's sensing something different here, but not quite pinpointing it...

EVEN THOUGH HE WENT THROUGH THIS FLIRTING THING WITH KAITO NOT TOO LONG AGO.....]

Hah, glad you think so. I'm probably not on par with you, though. You are the one with the 'sexiest man' title.

[Yamato personally didn't care, but that sexy thing just got under Ideo's skin like no other]

???

[...wait is yamato calling him sexy for real now or are they still joking

fuck HE IS SWITCHING TO VIDEO THIS IS THE ONLY WAY HE CAN TELL BETTER. Also he's actually not red, but he IS looking a little flustered, but still smiling.]

...you're embarrassing me. I could fire you for that, you know.

[Yamato was a bit bemused at the switch to video, and could only smile a little at Ideo's flustered state. It was sometimes like shooting fish in a barrel when teasing him at times, but it was still somewhat amusing-

Ah, Kaito's humour was rubbing off on him]

You won't though, so I feel perfectly safe in continuing.

Oh look, more completely public things for me to print out and hang on my wall for when I need a good laugh at Ideo's expense!

YU CANT PRINT A VIDOE YOU IDIOT

Well, that's what a tablet is for.

im gonna invent a way to kill you
then rez you and kill you harder

from space or something

You try it, and all I have to do is make one little misstep, and blame it on the oddities of this city interfering with my balancing gyros.

[IGNORING BRAINSTORM'S REMARK, Ideo is just going to avoid eyecontact but keep smiling. God, he feels like such a little kid.]

...you're lucky you're such a good worker, then. And that I like [you NO DONT SAY THAT] having you around.

[Yamato will overlook the Brainstorm thing, because he knew better than to step in between Ideo and Brainstorm's...whatever the hell that was. Rivalry. Vitriolic Partnership. Whatever.

However, he can't help but chuckle at Ideo's comment]

I know. I'm treated a bit better than others by you...

[BRAINSTORMBRAINSTORMBRAINSTORM hint]

What an honour that is. Joking aside, I have to agree that I feel the same.

Well, I...

[Wow. Suddenly video was a VERY BAD IDEA because all his awkward pauses and attempts to recollect himself are sort of right there. What does he even say to that? It's true- he's really only this open with a very select group of people...and then the latter part...]

...I'm very glad, Yamato. Really glad for that.

[tomorrow when you come in to work ideo is going to die of embarrassment]

[Yamato was a bit bemused, but far too used to Ideo's pausing and stammering. It had been mildly irritating to deal with at first, but the man's competence and intelligence now made it an easily tolerable flaw]

Hmm, it was inevitable, really. You're efficient and hardworking - those are qualities I admire.

[Ideo would have done well in his Meritocratic world!!!]

[oh.
ok.]

I wasn't always...I had to strive to be where I am today. I didn't think anyone would really care much about it.

[Direct-joking flirting? Just flustered. Being directly complimented? His ears are red. Gratz, Yamato.]

Hilarious.

You know i mean well. （＾＿－）

Kaito is that you.

[Only you use those horrible emoticons! Well, that's what he thought until other people started using it here, today... BUT HE'S TAKING A WILD STAB IN THE DARK]
