Might as well read it if you want, luv.

Voice

[tucky]

Really? Okay.

It'll be really fast in comparison, 'cause my last inmate's file is the reason I have a filing cabinet.

Re: Voice

[likeshowbusiness]

[He scoffs.]

Yeah, can't say as I'm that accomplished.

Voice

[tucky]

[And so she reads. It definitely goes faster than Ashildr's, and she's three-fourths of the way done in under an hour.]

I didn't know you stole shit at airports. I had a cousin who did that.

Re: Voice

[likeshowbusiness]

Yeah? Hope he had better luck than I did. The Heathrow racket was more trouble than it was fucking worth.

Voice

[tucky]

He bought a brand-new motorcycle a few months later, so I guess he--

-- wait, you knew Judy Garland? The Wizard of Oz lady?

Voice - gah sorry, I forgot she died after his canon point

[likeshowbusiness]

I did indeed. Went over to Europe on tour, with her and her fella.

[This is less awesome now he knows his boyfriend was nailing his bff the whole time he was gone, but. Still cool.]

Voice - no worries!

[tucky]

That's so cool. Did you do red carpet stuff? Do you have that there?

[likeshowbusiness]

Where do I live, Mars? Of course we've got red carpets. I did my fair share of gladhanding, yeah.

[tucky]

We don't have gladhanding. Or-- we probably do, but we got a different word for it.

[likeshowbusiness]

Ah, you know. Shaking hands, putting your face out there, being seen. What d'you call it - networking.

[tucky]

Networking. Yeah, we have that.

[And then it's just a couple more sentences, and-- there, she's done with the file. Ouch, Harry; what a note to end on.]

I'll keep this in my cabinet. if you change your mind about wanting it, just ask and I'll give it to you.

[likeshowbusiness]

Yeah, yeah. So, what now?

[tucky]

Well... what do you think about all this? Are you okay with getting me?

[likeshowbusiness]

Yeah. Fucking relieved, tell you the truth.

[tucky]

Good. Me, too.

[Not that she'd been particularly worried about any other alternatives, but she likes being paired much more than she likes being unpaired.]

[likeshowbusiness]

If I'd had another temp I'd have torn his balls off, likely as not.

[tucky]

Then I'm lucky I don't have any. You're just gonna have to rip my hair out if I piss you off.

[likeshowbusiness]

Nah. You're alright, Doggett.

[tucky]

Thanks. So're you.

I probably will fuck up, though. I always do, sometimes.

[She doesn't sound like she's ragging on herself here, though. She's come to the conclusion that everybody fucks up from time to time.]

[likeshowbusiness]

Just try not to do it in person and I won't smack you one.

[tucky]

Deal.

[likeshowbusiness]

Deal.

Now, onto practical matters. On board this magical boat of superpowered cunts, I feel somewhat ill-equipped to defend myself.

[tucky]

You looking for me to give you a weapon, or are you worried I'm gonna take away the ones you've already got?

[Because honestly, she would be extremely surprised if Harry didn't have at least a couple of makeshift ones tucked away somewhere.]

[likeshowbusiness]

I am looking for you to give me a weapon, Tiffany.

[never you mind about his shivs alright]
