"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."

[ She doesn't doubt that Chilton is resilient or capable, actually, but it's usually the sort of barb that gets men to lash out, especially when it comes to pride. Not that he needs much assistance in lashing out these days.

However he handles Will is always going to be a bonus, be it positive or negative. Something she doesn't mind dipping her fingers into, but that's really just a side project she's not nearly as invested in. There are no hurt feelings here. ]

maybe you're right
i was giving you too much credit thinking you might be reacting like a human being
crane has attacked you and the girlfriend you supposedly love
dredging up both your greatest fears and making a mockery of it
he'll probably try to go after her again given the strangling attempt
i know you're planning revenge

but you're NOT emotional
so just what kind of person are you claiming to be? that just makes you possibly frightening
is turning me away now your pragmatism at it's finest, frederick?
i thought we were about to become friends

[slightlyoffchilt]

[It strikes him as odd that she doesn't already assume he has a plan in motion, concerning Crane, something forged weeks ago shortly after the attack on him -- rather than one only at the planning stages now, as she discussed. Or was this simply a ploy to provoke him into an antagonistic monologue, proclaiming his detailed retaliation in permanent text, for easy reference? He found either possibility to be but another underestimation.]

When did I ever inform you that I love Raina?

[That was a remark that drew his eyebrows into a close knit. While he was affectionate and possessive of Raina, he didn't bandy that word around. Nor was he the type of man people assumed was capable of intensely intimate emotions. Had Chímaira listened in on their conversations, he wondered, which would have provided relative evidence? His most honest moments with Raina had been in private, in her lab, in their house, with close acquaintances -- not in the broad daylight of the masses, in other words. Not where she could have assumed the face of anyone and woven through the crowd to eavesdrop. And most of those conversations had been in person, together.

Except one notable one.

Had she been with Raina after she had told him that she'd remain with the Watsons? If so, did Chímaira have a connection to the Watsons?]

Or are you projecting?

[The longer he could prolong their conversation, the more clues he could attain.]

[sizetwelve]

[ She knows he has a plan, knowing Raina is getting revenge, and she wants in! Well, she doesn't want in. She just wants to know. Where is the harm in that? (A lot, possibly, but everything is possible). Of course, even digging this far is harmful. To him.

To her, definitely, but she knew that from the beginning. ]

i said supposedly
but if you don't then you're leading the poor lady on
she wouldn't stop crying about you being killed in her car
only the thought of going to you would calm her
what a mess
i mean if that's not love then what is?

[ Isn't love just the messiest? ]

you're the one focusing on that little word
ignoring the rest that's obvious
are you really claiming not to be emotional?
i might be in your position if i had someone

[slightlyoffchilt]

Do you really plan to talk, or simply argue at me?

[bindsthedead]

Doctor Chilton? I was told to get in touch with you for a psychiatric evaluation, since I'm planning on joining RISE

[slightlyoffchilt]

Far be it for me to dissuade you from your methodology. If you're more inclined to seep into his mind, I have no qualms.

[The means didn't measure in as much importance as the ends would.]

Just make sure to ruin him for Crane.

[slightlyoffchilt]

I'm a psychiatric doctor. Emotional control seems rather like a requisite, wouldn't you agree?

What information are you interested in, anyway? You seemed bored of Crane when I had come to you before. You clearly didn't take that seriously enough.

[sizetwelve]

i wasn't bored of dr. crane
i took him quite seriously
your presentation wasn't interesting
it was presumptuous
but that didn't mean i didn't take an interest
if assisting raina over taking our meeting wasn't already an indication of that

i agree psychiatrists are good at faking emotional control
you can't always succeed
i don't think crane is always succeeding, either
where does fear become personal for him?
i want to know where his fear started

[ferrisbuellean]

Isn't that the same thing? I mean It'll probably involve me arguing about how I don't wanna see your dick waving around in any threesome ever, but most conversations are better when I'm the one talking anyway.

What if you watched? Still weird, but I might be able to extend to that.

[abduxel]

[There's a faint smile, a delayed reply. Gently,]

I don't work for you, Dr. Chilton.

[He was being jarring on purpose, suddenly rescinding how agreeable he'd been up to this point, lacing his sentences with flattery and bribery until this rather bluntly stated moment. But he couldn't have the man thinking he'd just do his bidding for him; their agendas might align by coincidence, but it seemed awfully suspicious.]

Hi Dr Chilton, I was told to get in touch with you for an evaluation before taking part in the RISE initiative. My name's Sam, you can reach me at this number.

[aggressiveapathy]

we have a date

[theminotaur]

[ she doesn't think it matters if she left or not but since he's not going to apologize, which she wasn't really banking on anyway, she just drops it. ]

A lot of his decisions are probably moronic. He was friends with Hannibal.

What is Crane?

[slightlyoffchilt]

This doesn't have to be work. Abduxel. [Repetition, name recognition. It provided some sway of claim, he thought. Intimacy.] What I'm offering is more play.

[slightlyoffchilt]

Ah, yes. [There's a pleasant tone -- he's highly interested in the minds who have taken an interest to RISE.] Would a phone conversation suit you, or do you prefer an office visit? The Major General has been quite engaged with the local government, you know, that her projects have a certain flexibility.

[And Chilton could bend in alignment.]

callback.

[slightlyoffchilt]

[Sam. Sam. Sam Winchester? He almost considers it too good to be true. The very man that Lucifer had been so tenderly possessive of? Chilton wasn't inclined to grant fate and coincidence too much credit, but he might take exception to this instance.]

Sam, hello. This is Doctor Chilton -- I'd be happy to accommodate your psychiatric needs.

[slightlyoffchilt]

We do indeed. That date appears, as according to my calendar, to be June 24th.

[bindsthedead]

I think a phone interview would be fine. And yes, I've heard. It's very impressive. [Sabriel's tone is relaxed and sincere.]

[slightlyoffchilt]

Contrary to your prior engagement with human beings, I assure you that such forms of communication ARE indeed different. Typical lawyer, to assert otherwise.

Typical narcissist, too.

And no, I can't grant permission to that.

[slightlyoffchilt]

My presentation consisted of his name and crime. If that's not interesting to you, then you cannot claim to have an interest in human well-being.

[Which was interesting in of itself, sure, but any confidence building between them had crumbled because of that reaction and the fallout consequence -- not that the chimera could necessarily have influenced the events, granted. Nevertheless, Chilton was wary, and now he was tacit.]

What's in this for me? If you're so keen on presentation, you should know yours is lacking.

[hunter_returns]

[Ugh. He doesn't really relish the idea of seeing a psychiatrist, but if it gets him into RISE so he can poke around, okay. He can play along.]

They just want a quick evaluation, so whenever you have time I can stop by?

[aggressiveapathy]

:)
aw cute
no wonder you got a girlfriend
i'm coming to your office
i know you have a free session

[abduxel]

[It works. Particularly with this being, where his name being said is like being grabbed by the soul, it works. His smile becomes more genuine, less shit-disturbing.]

In that case, I look forward to more playing, Frederick.

[ferrisbuellean]

Narcissistic personality disorder is bs. The only disorder I have is being too awesome.

[That might be a joke. Maybe. SMILING ON THE INSIDE.]

Whatever. I'm sure we'll come to an agreement eventually.

[slightlyoffchilt]

[Whether Abduxel intended this or not -- though, Chilton banked on intention over accident -- his genuine smile and verbal promise seemed more flushed with threat than ever. Abduxel was dangerous and not meant to be underestimated; all the more reason to heed his interests and (above all) sincerity.]

Is this something you want? Revenge? Truly want it, I mean.
