"Hello.

You've reached the direct line of Doctor Frederick Chilton. As I am not available at the moment, you might assume I'm quite busy with something pressing. State your name and business, and I will return your call."

call;

[slightlyoffchilt]

The fact that you rely so heavily upon the merit of your physicality that the fear of losing any edge paralyzes you?

[slightlyoffchilt]

Ideation. Suicidal ideation. And clearly that resonated with you.

Perhaps you ought to come in. For another session.

call;

[textualhealing]

Bullshit. People adore my charm and wit. My good looks are just a bonus. You're the one with insecurities.

call;

[slightlyoffchilt]

Deflection is usually a sign of insecurity.

[mantlepieces]

What, like-- [ It's actually somewhat tempting now, despite everything. The closer October draws, the worse Reggie feels. ] Today?

call;

[textualhealing]

Ugh, you won't even believe how hard I want to hurt you sometimes.

call;

[slightlyoffchilt]

Ah, yes. Your repressed... Tensions, shall we say, once more finding the light.

[slightlyoffchilt]

Have you the time, today?

call;

[textualhealing]

I'm hanging up now. We can talk again when you stop being an asshole. Which is pretty much never.

call;

[slightlyoffchilt]

Well, do have fun! Hanging up! And dealing with your excessively high expectations!

call;

[textualhealing]

Because expecting someone to not be an asshole is a high expectation? Yeah. Way to be an asshole, asshole.

[HANGING UP! >(]

[abduxel]

for no reason? come on, we both know better than that

I'll rein him in and keep him from Hannibal Lecter IF you convince him that I managed to destroy the footage

[flowerette]

No, it's not Hannibal. It's a girl named Lourdes Hidalgo. She's taken control of the Hotel de Palais and is forcing everyone to stay and "have a good time."

She controls body movements. If we try to leave, she makes us walk right back in. People who disagree have had their mouths sealed shut and disappeared. I'm uncertain where she's keeping them captive.

[mantlepieces]

Well do you? I mean I don't need no session. Not like therapy.

[slightlyoffchilt]

Are you trying to tell me you're trapped in some imPorted Hotel California?

[slightlyoffchilt]

Would it help if we called it by another name?

[mantlepieces]

Yeah, 'cause that's not what it is.

[slightlyoffchilt]

Then we can call it a conversation.

[mantlepieces]

... All right. Just a quick one, though. [ He pauses. ] If you're too busy we can always skip it, I know you got all your weird people issues goin' on to deal with.

[slightlyoffchilt]

My "weird people issues"?

[mantlepieces]

Yeah, y'know -- like all these guys you keep warning me against that I guess all got some kinda beef with you.

[slightlyoffchilt]

Please don't use the word "beef" when referring to any conflict with Hannibal Lecter.

[mantlepieces]

Why not? Don't tell me this dude is like your ex or something.

[slightlyoffchilt]

Excuse me? What on earth would ever give you that idea? What in my behavior would indicate such a conclusion?

[mantlepieces]

You mean with him or just in general?
