Paranoid? Yeah, you could say that.

Is it really paranoia if you're right?

[perfect_spy]

It's a bad habit of mine I'm trying to drop.

[red_room_grad]

Well, it depends on who you're asking. It's an occupational hazard, I guess, always being on your guard, not knowing who to trust.

[red_room_grad]

Hard habit to break, for sure. But if you're in the line of work where lies help you get to the truth? Easier said than done, right?

[perfect_spy]

Wow. Exactly.

I was in that line of work. I sort of left when I met someone and now I'm right back in the middle of it again. At least being paranoid can sometimes help you be prepared.

[red_room_grad]

I guess you could say I'm still in that line of work. When governments and politicians interfere, it's a rough ride.

Yeah, being on your guard, is the best strategy for any type of hand to hand combat as well. If your work requires that.

[perfect_spy]

Well I haven't done any form of hand to hand combat in a while but hopefully it's like riding a bike.

[red_room_grad]

Muscle memory and practice. That's all there is to it. I know it's easier said than done...but if you've been doing it for a long time, it will come back to you.

[perfect_spy]

I'll keep that in mind. Might come in handy for what I've got planned.

[red_room_grad]

Planned, huh? You in charge of some type of a major operation?

[perfect_spy]

It's a long story I wouldn't know where to begin. In the grand scheme of things, yes. I've got something big planned.

[red_room_grad]

I'm sure. I've been a part of some big things too. I wish you luck and be safe.
