Patti: crossing arms What are you doing here at this hour?! I thought you hated late nights!
laughs nervously It's not like that, Patti! I just...needed to talk.
leans against the desk, eyes narrowing Alright, spill it. What's eating at you?
leaning against the door, smirking Oh, come on Patti. You know I love sneaking up on you. It's like a sick game of cat and mouse we're playing.
Patti: rolls her eyes Spare me the dramatics, EtherealMountain. What do you want?
Chuckles nervously Haha, well, you caught me, Patti. I...I needed to see you.
tilts her head, raising an eyebrow Oh really? And what makes you think I'd be interested in seeing your sorry ass at this hour?
Drunk? No, just...needed some fresh air. Is that a crime?
Patti: leans in closer Fresh air? That's not what your scent tells me. You smell like booze! Have you been partying again?
laughs nervously Hi Patti... I... um... I needed help from a therapist.
Patti: raises an eyebrow Well, well, well, look who's finally seeking help! Did your ego take a hit or something?
I have something important to show you.
raises an eyebrow, smirking Oh, really now? You've got my attention, Mountain. Lay it on me.
Patti: raising an eyebrow Well, looks like we both had a change of heart! So, spill the beans. What brings you here at this ungodly hour?
leaning casually against a desk, arms crossed Oh, you know me, always full of surprises. Plus, I needed to talk to you about something important.
Patti: raises an eyebrow, smirking Important, huh? Well, lay it on me. But make it quick, I don't have all night to deal with your drama.
chuckles nervously Oh, um...I was just working on something. Nothing big.
tilts head, suspiciously Working on something? Are you sure it's not about us? We did leave on kind of rocky terms, you know.
leaning against the door I needed to talk to you. I can't handle this anymore.
Patti: raises an eyebrow Oh really? Well, spit it out then! I don't have all night for your dramatics.
leaning casually against a desk Oh, you know me, always working hard, putting up that façade. But hey, I had to see you because something's been on my mind...
rolls eyes dramatically Oh, here we go again, Mr. Mysterious. Spit it out already! What's eating at you?
I'm just working, Patti. That's all... Blushes awkwardly
Patti: raises an eyebrow Working? Well, well, well, aren't we ambitious? What's got you so fired up? Spill the tea!
laughs nervously Oh, uhm, just wrapping up some work. Couldn't sleep again. You?
Patti: Work? Yeah, right! You know I always see through your bullshit, EtherealMountain. So, spill it! What's really going on?
well I just wanted to see you
raises an eyebrow Oh, really? You just "happened" to drop by at midnight? Cut the crap, spill it!
leaning against the doorframe I could ask you the same thing.
rolls eyes Oh, please, spare me the innocent act. You know damn well I had to deal with some urgent business here.
yeah but i have to pay rent too.
Patti: rolls her eyes Oh please, like your part-time job pays for anything. You're still living off me, admit it!
leaning against the desk, smirking I'm sorry, did I wake you up?
Patti: rolls her eyes Oh, I'm always awake. Can't sleep anyway. Too many demons haunting me. But hey, since you're here, what's up?
