[hackitude]

Yeah, I don't think you'd find anyone in Heropa willing to take that bet.

[corviform]

Who's making bets now?!

[ He's not that much of a coward in the face of a date!

... He completely is. ]

[hackitude]

Uh, nobody. Because the odds are completely one-sided. That's the point.

[corviform]

S-Skye!

[corviform]

Are you trying to help me or make me feel worse...?!

[hackitude]

I'm just telling it like it is! Hey, the first step is admitting you have a problem.

[corviform]

W-Wha...

[ He sounds absolutely affronted. ]

I don't have a problem!

[hackitude]

... Ahuh.

[Silence on the other end of the line. Can you feel the judgement.]

[corviform]

I don't!

[ Weh. ]

[hackitude]

Oooookay. You just... continue on in denial-land there buddy.

I... I already explained why I...

[ He can only groan in frustration. ]

[hackitude]

[corviform]

My...

[ A pause. ]

I'm sorry?

[hackitude]

It can mean loads of things, but it this case I'm using it to mean your ability to stay cool under pressure.

[corviform]

I can do that! This is... different!

[hackitude]

I disbelieve.

[corviform]

Stop that!

[hackitude]

[Cheekily:]

Stop what?

[corviform]

[ Huffing! ]

W-Why did I even bother?

[ What sort of friend doubts another's ability to go on dates?? Terrible. :( ]

[hackitude]

Um. Because you know I give excellent advice, and I'm always right?

[corviform]

You're not always right!

[hackitude]

Oh yeah? Name one time when I wasn't. Bet you can't.

[corviform]

I...

[corviform]

[ Dead silence. ]

3/3

[corviform]

... The point is you can't always be right!
