So...we're good? I keep my apartment and you design my collar? [she looks sweetly hopeful]
She does, she's amazing. She's one of my oldest friends here and I know I can count on her for anything. [and a playful wink] I might just have to take you up on that. Any plays or ballets or operas you have a particular fondness for?
Absolutely - do I need to speak to someone about the apartment, or will the contract be enough?
[A serious pause at that - because there are so many ... but if he is going to pick one?] I have always had a passion for Faust, in the original French.
Jo had--had put the apartment in my name ahead of time. So that should be secure enough.
[she waits with an expression of anticipation on her face, smiling warmly at his answer] I think I can make that happen. And as a bonus, it just so happens that I was taught French to better understand ballet. [and she rolls her eyes playfully] And because Bgztl High Society likes it better than Standard.
Very well. I shall send over a contract for you to sign - please read it over - and send it back to me after you have filled it in.
[One corner of his mouth lifted up, his dark eyes crinkling at the corners.] Well, I suppose I would eventually have to like something about Bgztl High Society.
[she nods] All right. I will. I can't thank you enough.
[she smiles back] What's the old saying? Even a stopped clock is right twice a day? Most of our fine arts, we stole from Terra, then proved we could do it better.
