No! 'course not! [ SOUNDING ALMOST OFFENDED. or maybe just mock-offended.

he ran out of matches anyway. ]

[bloodspeaker]

Are you going to kick the shit out of me again? While eating all of my pastries?

[JUST TRYING TO BE THOROUGH.]

[fitful]

[ THINKS VERY HARD ABOUT THIS ]

I... won't get any pastries if I say 'yes', right?

[bloodspeaker]

No. You will not.

[fitful]

[ fffroooooownnnn ]

Then no. No kicking....

[bloodspeaker]

[quickly.] Or punching.

[fitful]

[ SUDDEN, FRUSTRATED SIGH ]

No punching, kicking, biting, stabbing, choking, otherwise maiming, otherwise killing -- promise. [ He rattles off the list like it's one that he's had to memorize. ]

All right?

[bloodspeaker]

[Adrasteius nods briskly.]

Fine. Come over, then, and you'll have a whole plate.

[fitful]

[ was he scowling before? NOT ANYMORE. he leans in way close to the camera and grins. ]

All right!

[ pause. ]

Uh. Where?

[bloodspeaker]

[Adrasteius wonders, very briefly, if this is really such a good idea. But he did make an awful lot of tarts.]

It's Unit 408. The door's not locked.
