Natasha is not kicking leaves.

Nope.

There are no autumn leave piles that are being kicked by any kind of stompy boot. Certainly not the kind of steel-tipped stompy boots that see action or a risk of falling planks of wood. Maybe the latter. Certainly not the former.

And she's certainly not having fun.

Comments

"Sometimes. We have a few mad genius types.

Not common, though."

[cute_bruiser]

Molly's sigh is heartfelt and more than a little reminiscent of an office admin hearing of a world containing no paperwork.

"Lucky you."

[redintheledger]

Her mouth twitches.

"I feel the need to add 'so far'. We might not be so lucky after all."

[cute_bruiser]

"Fair point."

Molly's eyes flicker.

"In that case, I'll note that if anyone ever mentions Sentinels, shut them down. With considerable prejudice."

Because Nadine is totally in a position to do that, as an office worker with a taste in really nice outfits. Totally.

"I'll keep this in mind while reading the newspaper and geek sites," she says, risking a brief and amused I know what you're doing glance at Molly.

[cute_bruiser]

Serenely, "I have faith in your ability to multi-task."

[redintheledger]

"An internet campaign to shut down any evil robots could be fun," she muses. "Except then I'd have to persuade people on why evil robots are actually bad."

[cute_bruiser]

"Emphasise the 'evil' bit," Molly suggests cheerily.

"Tell them they'll outlaw cat macros."

Surely there is no greater crime.

[redintheledger]

She laughs.

"Now that might work."

[cute_bruiser]

"You've just gotta know how to talk to them," Molly tells her blithely.

She glances down. "Nice boots, by the way."

[redintheledger]

"Aren't they nice? Comfy as hell, too."

Sturdy.

Very sturdy.

[cute_bruiser]

"Very practical," Molly agrees. "And really cute. I go through boots like you wouldn't believe, worse luck."

[redintheledger]

"Don't suppose you get any discounts due to beating up giant evil robots?"

[cute_bruiser]

Sadly, "I don't even get any discounts for being cute."

And let's be honest: she is very, very cute.
