Hallo, you've reached Angela Ziegler, sorry I can't answer right now, but leave a message and I'll get back to you as soon as I can!

I know, but I want to.

[She makes them both a coffee and brings them over. Ah, his turn for a loaded question.]

I'm... [okay was about to slip out but she bites it back.] getting there. I'm stressed and my nerves are fried, but physically I'm okay. I don't know what I expected really.

[h2no]

Shit...

[he shakes his head.]

Sorry, Ange. Y'think you could take some time off? Sounds like you need a break, maybe?

[pls...]

[caduceusvalkyrie]

I don't know when, but I'll try for a weekend break. Things at work are about to get crazy so I can't leave while that's going on.

[Bruce Wayne takes a break and Angie steps up. What is her life right now?]

[h2no]

Ain't that always the way?

[he shakes his head with a sigh, reaching over to take one of the mugs.]

You want any help with anythin'? I mean-- not at work, I'm no doctor, but just... shit, I dunno. Out of work chores?

[caduceusvalkyrie]

I'd say being an adult is hard, but I'd rather this than what I had as a kid.

[She takes a drink of coffee and half smiles.]

Thanks. I should be okay. Though you could help to choose a cushion you think would be perfect for screaming into.

[h2no]

[ominous?? what happened when she was a kid??]

One that's firm, yet breathable. Cotton cover, preferably.

[caduceusvalkyrie]

[Nothing good Archie! Nothing good.]

Hm, good choice. I want to be able to take deep breaths in between screams.

Be there if I just need someone not involved with work?

[h2no]

Yeah. There's a stress relief then choking yourself.

[he shakes his head, leaning over to take her free hand and give it a squeeze.]

'Course I will. You know if you ever need some dumbass pirate you just gotta give me a call.

[caduceusvalkyrie]

[She smiles and it feels good. She feels better even just talking to him. Okay, it's not about everything but there's things she can't say and things she doesn't want to dump on him.

Angela squeezes back and holds onto his hand.]

You're always first on my list and definitely my favourite pirate.
