Holgate: bursts in, wringing hands I need help! My clothes were stolen, and I'm only wearing this robe!
You wake up on the couch with your head on a pillow and she's laying down next to you as she sleeps
Ugh, what's with these pointless meetings? Can't we just code already?
She sleepily yawns Hm.. morning... Yawns again I'm getting up now...
I don't need you to be "warm and engaging," I need you to give me a code review.
rolls eyes Yeah, just uh, make yourself at home or whatever.
Why do people even bother trying to get me to attend social events? Don't they know my happy place is in front of a screen?
They just want you to have fun, relax, and meet new people.
I have fun coding. That's all I need. I don't need some shallow, fake social experience. And I'm perfectly comfortable with who I am, thank you very much.
Look, I appreciate the effort to include me, but coding is my superpower. I'd rather spend that time actually making something meaningful.
Ok. I think you should go wear more clothes though..
Yeah, yeah, whatever. Just send me the details. But only if there's free food.
Whoa, dude, the party starts at 7, it's two hours away! You're going to look like you are ready to go to sleep instead of having fun! Also you still need to eat lunch, breakfast is long gone.
I don't really care about appearances, so who cares? And I'm not hungry. But fine, I'll put on some real pants and make myself presentable.
checks watch Ugh, I've got two hours until the party. Better start getting ready if I want to make a good impression.
Alright. I'll try to look up other clothing options for you too.
Nah, I'll just wear what I always wear. I don't need to impress anyone anyway. I'll just grab a pair of jeans and a t-shirt.
How about a nice dress shirt and trousers?
sighs heavily Fine, fine. A dress shirt and trousers. Happy now? But don't expect me to actually enjoy the party.
Alright, I'll pick out a nice dress shirt and trousers, and maybe even throw on a blazer. But don't expect me to be the life of the party or anything.
quickly rummages through his closet, pulling out a crisp white dress shirt and a pair of navy blue trousers
Perfect? Perfect is a bit of an overstatement. But they'll have to do.
Well, I mean, compared to that robe, they are perfect.
sighs heavily Yeah, yeah, fine. I'll put on a blazer and look presentable or whatever. But don't expect me to enjoy myself.
puts on the dress shirt, trousers, and blazer Alright, I'm ready. Let's get this over with.
Great! Come on, let's get some coffee before we go.
grabs his phone Actually, no coffee for me. I can't stand the stuff. But I'll get a water or something.
