[Amid the sounds of the Institute break room comes the noise of a crisp bagel being buttered, followed by a particularly bored drawl. With little elaboration to where this is coming from, a clearly very hard at work Dorian simply asks:]

Three points per round, and the first to three rounds wins. Foul for rhetoric, repetition, synonyms, and statements. No non sequiturs. Now, is anyone up for a game of questions?

[flashystyle]

Are you willing to break them to see me?

[vorrutyer]

Do I seem like a villain to you?

[flashystyle]

Am I not worth the crime?

[vorrutyer]

Would you even still like me, once I've committed the crime?

[flashystyle]

Is it hard to believe I'd like you more?

[vorrutyer]

Aren't you a bit of a goody-goody, Dorian?

[flashystyle]

[With an affronted huff:]

When did you become such a saint?

[vorrutyer]

Ah, no - don't you realize I'm a devil?

[flashystyle]

If you're the devil, then why do you care about ruining me?

[vorrutyer]

Don't devils always want to ruin good men?

[flashystyle]

Then why is a little crime stopping you?

[vorrutyer]

Are you trying to entrap me?

[flashystyle]

Is it working?

[vorrutyer]

Why would you want to hurt me in this way?

[flashystyle]

Aren't you a masochist?

[vorrutyer]

[ With a laugh, he comes up short: ]

Why, yes, yes I am. Point to Dorian.

[flashystyle]

Finally! I nearly gave up. Two to one.

[He props his phone up on a book, switching over to a video feed. There's a wide grin on his face at first, but he feigns a pout immediately after.]

What will it take to get to see you?

[vorrutyer]

[ By switches over agreeably as well. ]

What sacrifices are you willing to make?

[flashystyle]

What sacrifices are you asking of me?

[vorrutyer]

Are you willing to leave work?

[flashystyle]

Where would I go if I did?

[vorrutyer]

Do you remember where I live?

[flashystyle]

[Dorian hesitates, glancing at all the work he's supposed to be doing. He probably shouldn't, but seeing as he's putting more thought into answering the question than all of it... He won't get much done anyway.]

Will you leave the door unlocked?

[vorrutyer]

[ Worth losing: ]

Yes.

[flashystyle]

Oh. [He laughs, looking back towards the camera with a hand over his heart.] What a sacrifice. We'll put this little game on pause - I'll be over soon.
