do not insult my friends like that.

he's fine

( He pauses.
Something clicks behind the eyes.
He turns to face her fully.
Amused. )

❝ It all makes sense now.
Target practice on my head.
The insults.
You’re 𝒋𝒆𝒂𝒍𝒐𝒖𝒔 of me, Kor. ❞

❛All the time. Even my sheets are made from silk of the finest quality money can buy.

Unfortunately for you, it seems like you prefer more… rural… types of fabrics. 🤭❜

[𖤓 ━━━━ 𝑴 𝑰 𝑫 𝑨 𝑺 @wclflike]

ᅠ

❝ POLYESTER? 💢
Are you BLIND?
Have you ever touched quality fabric in your life?! ❞

ᅠ

[✧: — 𝐊𝐨𝐫 @dxrkoperative]

‍ ‍

❛I can see the polyester, Midas. The linen, too. It’s nice to see you giving to the farmer’s market, but I should tell you…

The silk you’re wearing isn’t of good quality at all. 🤫❜

‍ ‍

[𖤓 ━━━━ 𝑴 𝑰 𝑫 𝑨 𝑺 @wclflike]

ᅠ

❝ Do not flatter yourself. Everything I wear is made to order. Tailored specifically for me, down to the stitch. Purchasing from the clearance rack in a fine establishment does not make you fine, Kor. 😌 ❞

ᅠ

❛Bootleg? My couture is more expensive than anything you gallivant around in, which is odd because you can afford it.

Also… if anything, you’re built like a Disney villain — and I do not mean in a good way.❜

( Eye twitch 💢 )

❝ That is rich coming from you.
You're not exactly Mother Theresa yourself, Kor. Hard for anyone to take the moral high ground when you walk around looking like a bootleg Disney villain. ❞

ᅠ

❛Monetarily? Nothing.

But considering everything, I can afford to take a few charity cases. You could too, but I know those grubby, greedy blocks of butter with fingers won’t ever be kind — just self-serving.❜

❝ And just what did you gain from it, exactly? ❞

❛Huh…❜

‍ ‍ Give her a moment, this is the first time someone had actually been creative & not immediately shot out for her IO ties.

❛I’m still surprised that whole plan worked, actually. I just didn’t think it would be the tall, dark and ugly — not —

❝ At least Zadie had credibility working under me. Dignity, even. ❞

( Head tilt )

❝ Which is more than can be said for someone who followed a man who was — what was it again? — slapped out of the sky by a tentacle. ❞

ᅠ

[✧: — 𝐊𝐨𝐫 @dxrkoperative]

‍ ‍

❛Don’t I know it. Zadie always had a good eye for talent.❜

She tapped on her chin for a moment in false thought. Kor knew exactly what she was going to say and, yes, it WAS going to be an insult.

❛Last I checked, Zadie didn’t much like you either… y’know —

Can we please not be mean towards my father when he looks like this 😕

[𖤓 ━━━━ 𝑴 𝑰 𝑫 𝑨 𝑺 @wclflike]

ᅠ

( 𝑭𝒂𝒏𝒈𝒚
Yet another touchy subject. )

❝ Last I checked, yes.
She is doing well. She’s back working by my side again. She took some time away from The Agency for a while. She needed it, though I am glad to have her back. ❞

❝ . . . I’m aware.
But Jules is onto bigger and better things, it seems. We have not been in contact for quite some time. That’s just how it is right now . . . but I 𝒂𝒎. proud of her. ❞

‍ ‍

❛You quite literally have two kids.❜

Her face is completely deadpan.

Kor HATES this man so much that she WILL bring up a touchy subject.

Although, now that they WERE on the subject…

❛How is our lovely golden gal, anyway? Still… fangy?❜

[𖤓 ━━━━ 𝑴 𝑰 𝑫 𝑨 𝑺 @wclflike]

( The smirk is gone.
He turns back to face her.
The charm disappears.
Only ice remains. )

❝ You don’t know a thing about my situation. Marigold and I have come a long way. ❞

( No mention of Jules.
Touchy subject. 💧 )

ᅠ

[✧: — 𝐊𝐨𝐫 @dxrkoperative]

She raised a brow, a slight shrug stiffening in her shoulders as she looked around, confused.

❛Capable…? Of being a deadbeat and talking to yourself, I assume.❜

She can do nothing but facepalm. Oh, she’s so done with his ass.
