What? No. I don't want her to be mad at me. Let her set your boots on fire for a change.

[ukan]

[Ahem.]

"Hi, Sypha? Lark here. Yeah, Trevor's getting demoted to help me out. Want to help?"

How am I doing?

[atowncalledtreffy]

Oh my god.

[ukan]

She likes you, so I assume she doesn't like people who beat around the bush.

[atowncalledtreffy]

I take back all that nice shit I said about you. God, you piss me off.

[ukan]

Oh come on, I'll be tactful.

I'll make sure if she's mad at anyone it's me.

[atowncalledtreffy]

You can't make her feel a certain way. Don't you know a fucking thing about women?

...No, of course you don't.

I fucking have a type and it's stubborn assholes. You're unbelievable. "Oh, Trevor, I can't wait a few years to get what I want even though I waited a decade before, please ruin your future."

[ukan]

[A scoff] Alec is plenty stubborn but remind me to tell you about Lisbeth sometime.

I'm going to make sure you have a better future. You know that, right?

[atowncalledtreffy]

I know that I'm demoting myself on a hunch that might or might not work. And if it doesn't, I'm stuck here just as long as you. Probably longer.

[ukan]

[Longer than Lark? Please, Trevor. No one is as stupid about graduating as Lark Tennant.]

...Thank you.

[atowncalledtreffy]

You're welcome.

And I'll talk to Sypha.

[ukan]

I will, too. It's only fair.

[atowncalledtreffy]

Good, because I have no idea how I'm going to explain this to her.

[ukan]

I'll take the blame.

This can work. I believe it to my bones, this can work. And it will keep you together with her, too.

[atowncalledtreffy]

Save that negotiator tone of voice for her, you've already convinced me. And you're going to need it.

[ukan]

Okay. [A long breath in] All right I'm going to go find her after dinner.

[atowncalledtreffy]

All right. We're having fish.
