....Hell. That old bad lives out in the boonies. Afraid of some ghost of some old guy who'll never come back.

I mean, what you're saying to me is Really coming through. My dad was a Con man. My mother always told us to associate confidence with evil and all that other stuff but...

[] And I mean, as long as I feel confidence in myself she can't pick on me and she couldn't pick on dad and I could make something of myself no matter what I do or how I look, or- uh-

[] ....Yeah. Nice guys. Guys like you're rare.

[He smirks.] She sounds like quite a darling. Typically, anyone who is rude to you unjustly is simply jealous--at least, that's what I have found in my experience. So you should take it as a compliment.

[Chuckling, he places his hand under her chin and gently lifts so she looks up at him.] That's because I am right. There is no evil involved in liking yourself, being honest with yourself, and knowing that you are better than others. [Pride's influence was natural--he affected people's confidence without really trying. Not that he didn't like it, of course. But his touch would make her feel much better, though she wouldn't know why.] Are you alright, precious?

[And he almost burst out into laughter at being called a "nice guy," but he settled for an amused, lopsided grin instead.] Thank you--I suppose I am quite rare. You are far too kind. Though I shouldn't be surprised, as you are an Award Winner in the craft.

You guys. Collectively. Are Amazing. Props to the Sins Muns.

It's the truth. I mean, not many people make others feel better. It's a skill a guy should cultivate. Hell, it's a skill girls should cultivate.

[] I deserve the promotions too. Not just the stupid inner-office awards.

Thanks! <3 You kind of spilled blood in the water with that question, and we came running. lol.

I suppose it's just natural. I enjoy when others feel good about themselves--as I said, I believe there is a severe drought in confidence. And truthfully, it is not that difficult to make someone feel good about themselves when that someone is exquisite to begin with. [He gestures towards her, making it clear he was referring to her.]

You do not have to convince me. I agree, wholeheartedly. And I think it would be prudent for you to let others know. Your coworkers will be sure to respect your honesty.

[He extends his hand.] I'm Marlowe.

I aim to please!

[] Felicity.

[] I think I will remind them. Starting with Louise. Just a little confidence goes along way-I guess that's why so many people have gotten ahead where I live.

Heck, I thought they were just being rude...
