Lights dimmed, head down.

Killer migraine.

{Signs} Well that won't be happening anytime soon.

[chesstotem]

No? And why not?

[mutedpoint]

{Signs} There's a lot lined up on both out plates at the moment.

[chesstotem]

Oh yeah? [She teases.] Like what? Got a job?

[mutedpoint]

{Signs} There are always jobs.

[chesstotem]

Yeah, and they'll still be there if and when you take a break.

[mutedpoint]

{Signs} Aren't you forgetting about the one you have lined up yourself?

[chesstotem]

I'm not saying right now. Besides, we're already taking a break over Christmas.

[mutedpoint]

{Signs} Then it will take a while.

[chesstotem]

[She rolls her eyes, shaking her head a little.] So literal, all the time.

[mutedpoint]

{Signs} But then I mean exactly what I say.

[chesstotem]

I always say what I mean, too. Like, I love you.

[mutedpoint]

{Signs} And I you, in my own way.

[chesstotem]

What does that mean? [She stops short, giving him a baffled look.]

[mutedpoint]

{Signs} In my own way, as myself. Whether I follow convention or not, and what expectations I bring.

[chesstotem]

I have very high expectations along those lines, it's true.

[mutedpoint]

{Signs} And I'll get to know them.

[chesstotem]

So will I. [She laughs.]

[mutedpoint]

*A slight smile.*

{Signs} Yes. You will.

I'm sure you'll have enough questions about it all over time.

[chesstotem]

I hope so.
