It won't make no friends. We'll clean you up an' prepare for the worst.

... How you feelin', kid?

[supraliminally]

["fucking awesome killing people turns me on" is probably a bad answer]

I won't allow my judgment to be clouded at any rate, so my feelings aren't particular relevant. Don't worry about that.

[bad_in_latin]

M'I only allowed to be askin' if it's relevant?

[supraliminally]

I'm alright, Bergen.

[bad_in_latin]

I ain't so sure you'd tell me if'n you weren't.

[supraliminally]

You might consider the possibility that you don't want to know what I'm feeling right now.

[bad_in_latin]

I'm your Prime, ain't I?

[supraliminally]

[smiiles. ugh can't help it.]

And I your Champion, appropriately enough. How does it go again? "Make your passion your career, and you'll never work a day in your life"?

[bad_in_latin]

You sayin' you got a kick out of this?

[supraliminally]

[no no no no no get a grip

just. smooothing out her expression.]

I'm saying that how I feel is irrelevant. As I said, I won't allow my judgment to be colored by sentiment either way.

[bad_in_latin]

Then whatever it was y'felt, it sure don't bother me done. No harm in spillin'.

[supraliminally]

It's alright. I really do feel fine, Bergen.

[bad_in_latin]

You completely sure on that?

[supraliminally]

Completely.

[bad_in_latin]

All right, kid.

Let's get the rest of that blood off you.

[supraliminally]

[huffffffffsss]

Come help with my hair, then.

[bad_in_latin]

Sure. I do a mean french braid.

[supraliminally]

[well. SHE SEEMS TO BE RELAXING A LITTLE. filling the bucket with water again.]

I'm going to hold you to that, you realize.

[bad_in_latin]

Reckon you oughta.

[ taking the bucket ]

[supraliminally]

You know, I'm a dangerous murderer now. You had better be careful with my hair.

[bad_in_latin]

Yeah, yeah. One braid or two?

[supraliminally]

Let's try one and see how it goes before we go for anything too complicated.

[bad_in_latin]

You're understimatin' me.

[ starts on one simple braid down the back though ]

[supraliminally]

I confess that I am somewhat skeptical of your claims. If you don't like it, make me eat those words.

[bad_in_latin]

How 'bout I just feed you th'braid?
