Someone else would have even if I hadn't. [ he shrugs it off ] I just-- offered.

[successives]

[She huffs.]

Are you allergic to people thanking you?

[unpredicktable]

Only when I don't deserve it. [ it's a little dry ]

[successives]

And what's your criteria for deciding whether you deserve it or not?

[unpredicktable]

If it's the least someone should do when they've got the skills? [ listen? ]

[successives]

You are incredibly frustrating.

[She says that, but there's no heat behind it.]

[unpredicktable]

Thanks, I try. [ see? he can accept a compliment. "this wasn't a compliment" he can accept ]

[successives]

[She breathes out quickly, a little bit amused.]

Why is that the part that you're fine with?

[unpredicktable]

It's a gift.

[successives]

A gift of self deprecation?

[unpredicktable]

[ it's his turn to let out a breath of a laugh ]

No, the frustrating people part. I'm not self-deprecating.

[successives]

Right. You're not self deprecating, but you just said that you have a gift at making people frustrated with you.

[unpredicktable]

It's on purpose most of the time. [ sometimes... you are the distraction ]

[successives]

Right.

[He's just getting an incredibly skeptical look.]

[unpredicktable]

[ it makes him laugh, low ]

I promise you, my self-esteem is just fine.

[successives]

We'll see.

[what does that even mean]

[unpredicktable]

What does that mean?

[successives]

Next time you do something impressive, we'll see if you brush it off again?

[Did she just inadvertently call him impressive? Wow.]

[unpredicktable]

[ there's a beat, and he's smirking ]

Did you just call me impressive?

[successives]

—No, shut up.

[unpredicktable]

I thought you wanted me to learn to accept a compliment?

[ :3c ]

[successives]

That wasn't a compliment! It was a... [Saying it's a fact seems? worse?] That's not what I meant!

[oh no he's winning now]

[unpredicktable]

So what did you mean, then?

[ :3c :3c ]

[successives]

Never mind! You don't get to know.

[oh my god]

[unpredicktable]

Aw, c'mon. Why not? I feel like I was really getting somewhere in accepting a compliment.
