Cassian and his pet robot. You know, my brief adventure in attempting to make friends and be normal. [ Did anyone ever really think she would succeed at that? ]
Also I'm bringing someone by tonight so find somewhere else to have a one-night stand tonight if you've got plans.

If you were a bit more like me you wouldn't even need to worry about the friendship part. Just get laid and move on.
[ YEAH BE LIKE ROLE MODEL MERCURY HERE ]
Unless that's what you're bringing this "someone" over for, in which case hell, you can have it. You need it more than I do at this point.

Oh I'm sure spreading my legs will solve all of my problems. Remind to sing your praises if I ever decide to give it up to you or Johnny.
[ The only two people she's actually sure would be happy to without actually dating her. She's also pretty sure her partner and her boss are not people she wants to do that with.
That wouldn't help any more than trying to make nice or open up to someone would, anyway. ]
No, I invited this guy over to watch a horror movie with me. I have literally never wanted to destroy someone's happiness as much as I have this guy, and I have to get to know him to figure out how. Who knows though, I might sit on his face just to get him to shut up at some point.

[There's just a sigh on the other end, though that's in response to the no answer and a beep thing.]
Where are you? The nurses said you ditched your hospital bed.
[There's silence for a moment, almost as if she expects an answer. She doesn't, she's just trying to find the right words. There's a lot she wants to say, but to him, not a machine.]
I know you probably don't want to talk about what happened. I don't blame you. But...
Just.
Call me. All right?
[There's another long pause, but this time, the words don't come at all. So she hangs up, frowning at the ceiling as she taps her thumb against the comm device. Then she rolls onto her side to get some sleep.]

Will you please talk to Yang?
I just had a fight with her because she wanted me to tell her about your past.
I'm absolutely not saying you have to tell her anything, but at least let her know you're okay.
(I'd like to know you're OK too but after what she said happened, I can't imagine you are. LMK if you need anything!)

[Ding! Wow, Mercury has a new message! There's a picture attached. It's from Yang so. Probably not something incredibly serious. And if he thinks so, he's right.]
The sequel comes out in December. You know which game. Get ready to taste defeat because I'm ready for this.

[Yeah, she's not reaching out to him until the next day, she needed some time to cool off and go back over that conversation.]
I'm not mad, just irritated. Don't freak out, it happens. Will drop off a new garbage can today or tomorrow, got some errands to run in the area.
We're still dancing together.

I think you'll be happy to know I signed up for a way less dangerous bounty this time. Looks like Weiss and Sun signed up for it too! Just wanted to give you a heads up anyway, since that seems like a...I dunno...a girlfriend thing to do? I guess?
[And so he doesn't have to 'go for a walk' while waiting for her to come back.]
Anyway, just thought I'd let you know. Hope work is going good!

And here I thought this would be an invitation for a double date. I think Sun really likes me.
[ He isn't sure when the last time he spoke to Sun was.
...
Has he ever said a fucking word to Sun Wukong jesus christ ]
When are you getting started?

Probably this afternoon It shouldn't take long with so many people checking out these caves. Might just be some poor guy seeking shelter from the cold.
You know, I did suggest a double date. But Weiss said I wouldn't be able to protect you from all the punches and stabbings.

Aren't the punches and stabbings what make a date fun?
Well, whatever. How about we make up for it by having a date of our own? Call it a post-bounty celebration.

Ha! You know it!
...Oh yeah? A real date, huh? Sounds fun! Anything in particular you want to do, or should I surprise you?

Let's figure it out when you get back. It's going to depend on how pooped you are, anyway.
Hmmm...yeah, that's a good point, I hadn't thought of that. That's really considerate of you!
[She beams. He's a good boyfriend.]
We could check out a movie at the theater, if you're up for that. Won't matter how much energy I have if we're just sitting together in the dark, right?
[Guess she's trying to figure it out anyway. It'll give her something specific to look forward to.]

Yang, I'm pretty sure no one goes on a movie date to actually watch the movie.
........News to me.
[It actually is, she's never been on a date to the movies before.]
So does that mean the movie thing is off the table, or are we going to the theater to not watch the movie?

[ to be fair he's only going off of filthy rumors ]
Why don't we go to the movie and see where our attention ends up?

That's fair! ...If you pick a boring movie on purpose, then I'll know what you're hoping for.
What?
Me?
Rig events in my favor?
Yang Xiao Long, I'm hurt.

And you're hoping I'll kiss it better, right? You'll have to do better than that!
You'll see just how much better I can do tonight.
Oh ho~
