[Screened calls go straight to voicemail, where an impatient recording answers]

You've reached Dr. Hermann Gottlieb. Leave your name, number, and business if you expect a return call. Thank you.

Suuuuurrrrreee. You're still a geek.

[mathemagier]

Yes well, I suspect that isn't a complaint, so thank you.

[driftsintobuffetline]

No, it's not a complaint.

Of course, I could FILE a complaint if you so desire?

"To Whom It May Concern:
Complaint: My boyfriend optimizes attractive nerd and exhibits too many qualities I fondly refer to as 'geeky.' He is a menace. He must be stopped. Signed, Newt."

[mathemagier]

[Stop it with the sweetness Newt, you'll make him go all sappy]

Yes, I'm sure that's in violation of some code of conduct somewhere. Professionalism, surely. How utterly awful that you should have to deal with that on a daily basis.

[driftsintobuffetline]

Terrible. Disgraceful. I can't work in these conditions!

I should be commended. Rewarded, even. Maybe with pie.

[mathemagier]

Well I'm sure we can arrange that. It is Pi Day after all.

[driftsintobuffetline]

If you don't arrange it, then I really WILL file a complaint. Pie tease.

[mathemagier]

Oh well, we really can't have that now, can we? I'll see to it then.

[driftsintobuffetline]

Good. Then I forgive you.

[He missed being able to just be with Hermann, without occupations and abductions.]

I guess I won't pinch you TOO hard on St. Patty's Day~

[mathemagier]

[orly]

Just keep in mind that there will be consequences in doing so.

[driftsintobuffetline]

[ya rly. please to be just sitting around chatting with him. snuggle him. he wants to hang out. this is the best.]

uh huh.

[mathemagier]

[Newt can have all of the cuddles and kisses]

But then you do have masochistic tendencies.

[driftsintobuffetline]

And you're a little sadistic. It's a good combo. [A laugh.]

Seriously, though, if I was truly a masochist, Hermann, like truly, I'd still be wasting away, waiting for senpai to notice me. Which I'm not. And I'm glad I'm not. Because THAT is torture.

Okay, sometimes it's the hurts-so-good kind of torture, but no, really, I'm glad that's over.

[mathemagier]

And if I were truly sadistic, I would have let you. Fortunately, we're a bit better off than that now.

[Have a forehead kiss] Now let's see about those pies.
