Quaint little city, isn't it? If only they hadn't been so rude about my... accommodations. But what's past is past. I must say the locals are a joy in themselves, busy like little worker ants. 

Enough about them. I'm a sociable man, so let's do the best to make light out of our unfortunate situation and socialize. Go on, do tell me about your minuscule lives--a name, anything. I'm dying to know. 

Or maybe you'd like to discuss holidays. Christmas will arrive any moment, you know. Any plans? I know have one or two of my own...

And how does your 'line of work' treat you?

[fakereputations.livejournal.com]

Ah I tend to work alone. But let's just say that there are very few people tend to like me, and they really get to know your face.

[napoleonicrat]

What do you know, we're in the same trade.

[fakereputations.livejournal.com]

...Really.

Okay, I'll take the bait. What's your trade, exactly?

[napoleonicrat]

An entrepreneur.

[fakereputations.livejournal.com]

Heh. I see.

You're right; I'm a bit of an entrepreneur myself. But uh, things have changed a bit; I've been thinking about going straight. Crazy talk, I know.

[Chuckles.]

Dear boy, one thing I learned about the entrepreneurial business: you never go 'straight'.

[fakereputations.livejournal.com]

I....am gonna have to disagree with you on that one. People can change you and your outlook on life.

[napoleonicrat]

I prefer to change other's outlook.

[fakereputations.livejournal.com]

I didn't even really care until now about what other people thought. But you know, things change.

[napoleonicrat]

Yes, things certainly do change.

[fakereputations.livejournal.com]

Uh...huh. Right.

Well, Professor, it's been great, but, these escape plans don't plan themselves, heh.

[napoleonicrat]

Yes, as much as I'd like to stay, I'd prefer to find the ones responsible for this.

[fakereputations.livejournal.com]

Well, yeah, that's part of that escape plan. They might have the answers. Annnnnd...I'm not too big on authority figures trying to keep me captive.

[napoleonicrat]

Nor am I.
