[There are a lot of things David could say about the holiday. He's already pointed out it's already passed for him, before he came here, and he's told Narvin the truth about the Engineers, which makes the whole holiday seem even more bogus than usual, but he ]

I had almost allowed myself to hope that the mistletoe would be gone by the time the holiday had ended. When does it usually leave the Barge? [Because he hates that fucking mistletoe and he will be a very happy robot when it's gone. >C

He hesitates, almost like he was considering switching off the feed before his etiquette programming kicked in and reminded him he should probably be saying something about this.]

I suppose I should say thank you for the gifts. They were... appreciated. [He doesn't even sound entirely insincere. Sort of. It's always a little hard to tell when he's just pulling your leg versus being serious, but this time, he mostly just doesn't really know what to do with it.] Although I'm afraid the wine would be wasted on me, so if anyone wants an extra bottle...?

[Private to Aya]

I have selected several books on the history of the automotive industry, if you're still interested in learning more about it.

[looksfine]

I am.

[Private]

[secretasshole]

Where would you like me to bring them?

[Private]

[looksfine]

My quarters would prove adequate.

I trust you remember its location?

[Private]

[secretasshole]

Of course. I will be there shortly.

[Private]

[looksfine]

As will I.

[Private]

[secretasshole]

[And he will also be bringing along a copy of Lawrence of Arabia. Enjoy, Aya. c:]

[mattersverymuch]

I'll take it. [ And trade it to someone who desperately wants it. ]

[secretasshole]

[David dgaf what happens to it, so GO FOR IT.] Alright. Where should I bring it?

[mattersverymuch]

Mm . . . deck. Soon.

[secretasshole]

I will be there shortly. [Or, you know. Right now. He has nothing better to be doing really. B(]

[mattersverymuch]

[ It's a weak thing to trade with, but frankly he's got nothing better to do, either. He's waiting and recognizes David easily enough. It's his business to know faces, after all. Nodding, he raises an eyebrow expectantly. ]

[secretasshole]

[And David hands over the bottle without protest or fanfare. It's not poisoned or anything!]

Enjoy.

[timesbureaucrat]

The parasite generally remains until the end of the month, unfortunately.

[secretasshole]

I suppose it should be expected, considering where we are.

[surfaceshine]

[Narvin's already answered, so Dean will just pop in helpfully.]

In the meantime, you can try fire to keep it away.

[Oops. Probably not the best advice he's ever given on a prison barge.]

[secretasshole]

[David just smiles.]

Thank you for the suggestion, Mr. Winchester. [Whether that means "I'm about to go do just that" or "You're an idiot" is up for debate.]

[surfaceshine]

[Meh, he's used to that second part.]

Actually, don't, people get all wound up when shit like that happens around here.

[secretasshole]

I wasn't planning on it.
