Room 317- Tuesday after classes

[notconflicted]

Sia had known at some point that she'd be called home to do some work, and to be honest she couldn't believe it had taken this long. And if it turned out this was was a "You were safer there and we wanted to protect you" thing, there was going to be so much yelling. But since she got the call, she found she was actually excited to be going back for a little while, and set to making arrangements for while she was gone.

Which meant leaving a voicemail and then packing. She didn't really have a ton of arrangements to make here.

"He's very well behaved," she promised. "Except on walks when his number one priority is attempting to chase squirrels."

[suitably_heroic]

"Does he actually keep the squirrels from writing about you if he does?" Atton asked. "Because that would actually be useful."

[notconflicted]

"No, and in fact that's part of why I'm trying to train him not to do that," she admitted.

[suitably_heroic]

"Couldn't you just train him to do that but better?" Atton asked.

[notconflicted]

"No. And you're not to try that either," Sia told him.

[suitably_heroic]

"What are you going to do, spy on me?"

Sure, Atton probably couldn't train a dog, but now he was going to try.

[notconflicted]

"Just don't train my dog to terrorize rodents," Sia said. "I shouldn't have to say that."

[suitably_heroic]

You were leaving your dog in the capable hands of an ex-Sith, Sia. If that was the worst Atton wound up trying to train the dog to do, it'd be a small miracle.

"The dog already terrorizes rodents," Atton pointed out. "I'm just making him be useful while he does it."

"I'm so glad you're roommates with Jessica." At least she knew she could get Jessica on her side.

Atton rolled his eyes. "The words you're looking for are 'thanks for looking after my dog, Atton'."

[notconflicted]

"Thanks for looking after my dog, Atton," she said. "I'd still better not have to retrain him in a week."

Vitor just barked quietly, because it'd been like five minutes since he'd had attention actually on him.

Sigh. And to think only 24 hours ago he'd been encouraging drunk April to do horrible things in a bar. How quickly life could take a turn for the worse.

"Fine, whatever, just enjoy your time schmoozing with the elite or whatever you'll be doing," he said.

[notconflicted]

It was more like having a lot of clandestine meetings because she was in exile and all, but she was actually happier letting people believe there'd be schmoozing. "I'll do my best."

[suitably_heroic]

Atton turned to Vitor. "And you are not going to be a pain in my ass," he instructed. "If you have to be, be a pain to Jessica. She's sturdy, she can take it."

[notconflicted]

"I'm sure she'll appreciate that," Sia said dryly.

[suitably_heroic]

"Hey, like you said, maybe she likes dogs."

Probably not that much.
