15 Evrart Claire "Of course, Harry. Let me just assure you one more time -- it's perfectly okay to share anything we discuss here with this... *Joyce*. This is a completely transparent organization."
  • 60
16 Half Light This is weird. Not *nice* weird, but okay.
  • 61

37 Evrart Claire "'Oh, did I leave my casserole on? Better go home and check. The election can wait!'" The man frowns, disapprovingly. "When she got back the whole thing was over."
  • 38
38 Drama Wait... there was no mention of a casserole from Joyce.
  • 43
39 Evrart Claire "Yes, yes -- *low-balling*. Of course..." He's suddenly very serious. "This isn't a casino, Harry. Real people, real livelihoods are at stake here. But everything's a casino for those rich types..."

48 Evrart Claire "Harry, Harry, Harry!" He flicks his fingers. "Do not fixate on this little matter. Maybe it was a rabbit stew... or a hair dryer, or an iron. The point is, her heart wasn't in it. Mine *was*."
