Thursday
Lily: You send me that to make me jealous?
Link: Maybe. :P
Lily: It worked.
Link: My dinner.
Lily: Looks good. Where you eating?
Link: The diner. Just off Daytona. You ever been there?
Lily: No. I usually just go to the country clubs.
Link: Shame. You’d probably like it here.
Lily: I would, huh? How do you know that?
Link: You like to think you have a stick shoved up your ass, but you don’t. I think you’d like the fact we’re not all pretentious assholes.
Lily: Well, you get used to them.
Link: What? Pretentious assholes?
Lily: Yep. Fact of life for me. At least with Luke dead, I don’t have to deal with his prick ways too.
Link: That’s one way of looking at it.
Lily: I’m a glass half full kind of girl.
Link: Really? Full of what?
Lily: Dreams. Hopes. We can try to live a better life than what we’re already leading, can’t we?
Link: Funny…
Lily: What is?
Link: From the outside looking in, I mean, you look like you’d be happy.
Lily: Why? Because I’m rich?
Link: Yeah. Isn’t that what everyone wants? To be rich and able to buy good shit and do whatever they want?
Lily: What about my life makes you think I can do whatever I want? Lol. I just told you I haven’t gone to the diner you’re in…know why?
Link: Because it’s not fancy enough for you?
Lily: I’m not that much of an asshole. It’s because if I gain any weight, my father restricts my food.
Link: You shitting me?
Lily: No. I wish I was.
Link: Why do you put up with it?
Lily: Because it’s only for as long as I’m willing to deal with it.
Link: And how long is that?
Lily: I don’t know.
Link: Seems to me you don’t really know what you want. You let him control you, let him get away with the stuff he does because you think, at some point, you’ll break and will end him. But I don’t think you have that in you. Not really.
Lily: That’s a lot of guessing from someone who doesn’t know me well.
Link: What you want to do…I know what that feels like. It’s not something just ANYONE can do. You’re not just anyone.
Lily: Aren’t I?
Link: No. I think you’re kinder than you realize. I don’t think you could do it.
Lily: Won’t know until I’m pushed.
Link: Hasn’t he already pushed you enough? Wouldn’t you have snapped by now?
Lily: I don’t want to talk about this.
Link: The truth hurts. But if it’s any consolation, your ass is to die for, and I think it could survive a few of these sammiches.
Lily: Thank you. I think. Lol. I’m surprised. Didn’t take you for a steak sandwich kinda guy.
Link: No? How come?
Lily: Thought you’d prefer something the size of a T-Rex on a plate with loaded baked potatoes.
Link: Well, I do, but everything in moderation.
Lily: Ha! This is you being healthy, is it?
Link: Well, this piece of walking heaven has to stay looking this fine, doesn’t he?
Lily: I suppose, when you put it like that…
Link: Haha.
Lily: :P
Link: Does that mean you think I’m walking heaven?
Lily: I wouldn’t want to inflate your ego anymore.
Link: Shame.
Lily: *snorts* If you say so.
Link: I do. Every man likes his ego being…stroked.
Lily: As well as other things? Or just his ego?
Link: Other things too. Ego optional.
Lily: So, in the grand scheme of things, you’d prefer ‘other things’ to be stroked than the ego?
Link: You stroke those parts of me, the ego purrs.
Lily: You’re nuts.
Link: I try. :P Seriously, you should come down. I’ll even share this sandwich with you.
Lily: Won’t buy me my own? You’re a cheap date!
Link: The cheapest.
Lily: Haha. Thanks for the offer.
Link: But?
Lily: I can’t go into town. Not without my guards, and as fascinating as I’m sure your company is, it’s not worth the crap I’d get for it.
Link: You know how prisons work, don’t you?
Lily: Locks? Keys? Guards? Yep, well aware that’s my world. Except, I get to drive a fancy sports car so no one realizes it.
Link: That sucks.
Lily: Ah, but my stomach is full, I have a roof over my head, and I have staff to see to my every whim. Aren’t I the luckiest princess in the world?
Link: Sarcasm doesn’t become you.
Lily: Sarcasm totally isn’t the lowest form of wit.
Link: If it isn’t, what is?
Lily: I don’t know, but sarcasm is the BEST.
Link: Crap, you’re one of those weirdos who likes Fawlty Towers, aren’t you?
Lily: Maybe. O.o John Cleese is a legend.
Link: Pfft. Only weirdos like that show.
Lily: It’s got a cult following.
Link: Key word there being CULT. Anything that has that attached to it isn’t good IMO.
Lily: We’ll have to agree to disagree.
Link: Definitely.
Lily: I bet you like facile American comedies, don’t you?
