[mathemagier]

What? Please clarify your inquiry if you'd like a relevant answer.

[driftsintobuffetline]

Uh. Sexiest...part...of...the....body? What is there to clarify?

[mathemagier]

Most intimate could be considered separate, depending on definition.

[driftsintobuffetline]

Right, okay, Dr. Smarty-pants. So separate them and give me both.

[mathemagier]

Well intimate I'd say would be eyes, certainly. Of course considering the drift, I could say brain really, but I assume you mean in general.

As for attractiveness, aside from the obvious.. hm.

What did you say this was for again?

[driftsintobuffetline]

Ha ha, like I'm giving you the purpose of this THAT easily.

But eyes? Really?Duly noted, but can you maybe pick something a little more, uh...external?

[mathemagier]

Particularly in your case, they're very expressive.

[And he might have gained a weakness for green eyes in particular.

But external. Hm.]

Well, I do love the way military uniforms accent the shoulder line. I suppose that would be my next choice.

[driftsintobuffetline]

Shoulders. Okay. Okay, I can work with shoulders.

And I'll have you know, dude, should PADS do like...70% of the heavy lifting there. 80, maybe. They can't all be that board, right?

[mathemagier]

Yes, yes.

[No. Pentecost, Captain Rogers, Joaquin. They probably are that well defined.

Sigh.]

Now are you going to tell me what you're up to?

[driftsintobuffetline]

...um. maybe? Later. After I've done the thing.

[mathemagier]

Well do inform me whenever that is. I don't lightly offer data you know.

[driftsintobuffetline]

Oh yeah, really had to twist your arm for this data, right.

For the record, there's no way you won't know, once I do it.

[mathemagier]

And when do you anticipate that will be precisely?

[driftsintobuffetline]

Uhhh.
It depends on the options available. I haven't inquired...yet. But I will!

Look, if you're worried, I promise there's nothing to worry about. Probably.

[mathemagier]

Wonderful. If you manage to hurt yourself in the process, I promise to be less charmed.

[driftsintobuffetline]

It might hurt a little, Hermann.

No, I guarantee it will hurt. But that's the nature of the beast.

[mathemagier]

Yes, which you're being deliberately vague about, so you'll forgive me if I'm concerned.

So long as you don't hospitalize yourself, I suppose.

[driftsintobuffetline]

God, Hermann! It's a tattoo, okay? I want to get another tattoo!

Seriously, you're the worst. [Affectionately]

[mathemagier]

[He suspected as much, except for one thing]

Isn't that difficult.. for you?

[driftsintobuffetline]

...Yeah.

[mathemagier]

So how are you managing that exactly?

[driftsintobuffetline]

Well, that's what I don't know yet. I mean, I got to thinking, after our talk the other day, about power suppressors. And I don't know if I could make a targeted one, but either way, it'd be like...a month...3-4 weeks for a tattoo to heal and I KNOW you don't want to do that to our Drift, but maybe if I keep the tattoo small and it heals quickly...?

[mathemagier]

[Ah.

Well.

Hm.]

..About how long do you expect a small one to take to fully heal? Assuming of course, we could manage it.

[driftsintobuffetline]

And. Uh.

...you've got to be careful complimenting a guy's eyes, Herm. He might have to come kiss you for it.

[mathemagier]

Oh yes, how awful. Not sure I could possibly survive.
