“Then think of something else. Anything.”
Battery sipped on her coffee. “Anything? Armsmaster was looking for volunteers for some unpaid work at one of the primary schools. I already said I’d do it.”
Do you really want to expose school children to this douche?
Also, sounds like we’re still in the past.
“You do all of that crap,” Assault rolled his eyes. “It’d be admirable if you weren’t trying so ridiculously hard at it. It’s like you’re trying to make up for some wrong you think you’ve committed.”
Dude, I think that wrong might be you.
Battery frowned a little.
The grin dropped from Assault’s face. “Hey, seriously?”
Hm. Does he actually have a side that genuinely cares?
She shook her head. “No. No wrong committed, real or imagined.”
Of course, it could also be the Cauldron favors. Either thing works.
“But the way you looked just now-”
She interrupted him. “If you come on this errand with me and do part of the speech for the kids, I’ll maybe consider possibly going out with you for lunch someday.”
Heh, nice.
“When?” “30th of February sound good to you?”
