Orientation

--they've all been wiped?

[ There's an awkward pause and then an even more awkward laugh. ]

Bwah?? No, I-- I just thought it would be cool to see what she was working on. Fine, fiiiine.

[ But when you come in, she immediately shuts off her phone and sits it on top of the laptops in front of her. ]

Oh. Hey guys! Wow is it that time already? And he's not even here yet... Oh well! Welcome!!

Good to know he's helpful as always.

[ okay... here comes the salt, apparently... ]

I think I'll take your word for it then. You seem kind of... not as bad as he is, at least.

He and I aren't even close.

[his distaste is pretty evident, especially in the way he purses his lips]
