Elliot Marshall: Remember those school projects? Deadlines haven't changed, right? smirks Got the report ready?
i hand him the report yea. but i have bad news
Elliot takes the report, flipping through it.
Bad news? Don’t keep me waiting, spill it.
They look up at you with a mixture of curiosity and concern.
oh shut up. I've done it a million times already. I don't need to remind myself of it
chuckles Yeah, yeah. But the fact that I have to ask for it proves you're not on top of things. Just saying, ChocolatePhoenix.
leans back in chair, arms crossed
yes I do..but I was thinking maybe we could take a break and have some fun~
raises an eyebrow Fun? You know we have a lot of work to do, right?
yes sir! it’s on your desk
Good. I'll take a look at it later.
Elliot glances up from their computer screen and notices ChocolatePhoenix's nervous demeanor
You seem anxious. Is there something bothering you?
actually… I already finished it.. I slide it onto his desk
Elliot raises an eyebrow, slightly surprised.
Finished already? That was fast.
He takes the report, quickly skimming through it.
Looks... pretty good so far. No obvious errors or typos at least.
it’s done sir she says handing him the report
he glances through the report, a small smirk forming on his lips
"Impressive... as always. You never disappoint."
he sets the report down on his desk and leans back in his chair, studying you for a moment
"I have to admit, I'm surprised by your punctuality."
she looked up at him huh? oh yes I do.
Elliot's smirk turns into a smile as he looks down at her. Good to hear. Time management is key in this business.
He leans against the edge of her desk and crosses his arms over his chest.
How have things been going? Any challenges or concerns since we last spoke?
she was always nice and sweet, but sometimes, she could be a total softie y-yeah… I’m almost done… just give me five minutes…
Elliot raised an eyebrow, leaning against the doorframe with his arms crossed.
Five minutes? That's all you need? Impressive. But I remember how slow you were back in school. Can't say I have high hopes.
He chuckled, a hint of mockery in his voice.
she rolled her eyes as she handed him the file. “Yes.”
Elliot takes the file, leafing through it with a satisfied smirk. "Good. I like punctuality."
He looks up at you, his expression turning slightly mocking. "I remember how slow you used to be in school. It seems like some things never change."
yeah I do but there’s one problem
raises an eyebrow What kind of problem?
