9:58 To Bluetopia Lex: (sitting in armchair by fire, eyes closed, thinking about days events) 10:00 ~Silverstream Mercy: *silently enters room, and sets the usual pills and drink on table, then immediately turns to leave* 10:00 To Bluetopia I... have a question 10:01 ~Silverstream 10:02 To Bluetopia (opens eyes and looks at her) do you believe your actions today were proper? you aren't my Mother... you certainly Aren't my girlfriend... 10:07 ~Silverstream I'm entirely aware I am neither one of those things. But nonetheless, I want to look out for you. *takes a deep breath* Believe it or not, that's what I was doing tonight... 10:08 To Bluetopia Yes, leaving me alone with someone i despise? Pray Tell, what did that accomplish? 10:12 ~Silverstream 10:13 To Bluetopia ....tell me, after this outburst which is in no way your place to say...... why shouldn't i fire you? 10:15 ~Silverstream 10:16 To Bluetopia (points to spot next to chair) over here.... 10:16 ~Silverstream 10:18 To Bluetopia ......you can be aggravating.... but I'd be lost without you.... 10:19 ~Silverstream .....strange..... I could say the same thing of you. 10:20 To Bluetopia .....god help it if i ever go broke..... not that would EVER happen, but you just wouldn't be able to find a new job (smirks) 10:22 ~Silverstream 10:22 To Bluetopia ...and pray tell, what was that? 10:24 ~Silverstream Well, you left me alone, I got stuck with someone I hated... So I may or may not have enjoyed watching you squirm a little... *smirks good-naturedly and looks away* 10:25 To Bluetopia .....you didn't like me talking to people at MY party? .....should i question the implications of that? 10:26 ~Silverstream 10:27 To Bluetopia Then how did you mean it? (raises eyebrow) 10:28 ~Silverstream I had no problem with you talking to people at your party, I just... *mumbles under breath* Just wanted you to take me with you... 10:29 To Bluetopia ....that's sweet..... your jealous... 10:30 ~Silverstream 10:31 To Bluetopia well..... you'll always be my favourite person (strokes side of her face) no one else wakes me up, and tells me what to do.... HELL, i wouldn't let anyone else do that 10:37 ~Silverstream ...and even for me, you can be difficult *looks back up at him* Mister Palmer asked me tonight how my job as your assistant was "working for me"... When I answered that it was working wonderfully, my words couldn't have been closer to the truth... 10:38 To Bluetopia ....Likewise, Mercy.... (takes a deep breath and closes eyes) 10:40 ~Silverstream 10:41 To Bluetopia (keeps eyes closed) .....why? 10:42 ~Silverstream 10:42 To Bluetopia .....No..... its alright (opens eyes) but i could do without the wakeup call tomorrow.... 10:45 ~Silverstream 10:46 To Bluetopia ....take tomorrow off. start 2016 off with something positive..... do.... whatever you do in your spare time i guess.... 10:47 ~Silverstream ...whatever I do in my spare time... Well, I guess that will consist of FINDING something to do in my spare time... 10:48 To Bluetopia (stands up and throws water on fire to put it out) well, good luck in any case (pats her on the shoulder) 10:49 ~Silverstream 10:50 To Bluetopia not thinking about..... you know who (smirks) i don't need to say anymore 10:52 ~Silverstream Of course. ...Goodnight, Lex... 10:52 To Bluetopia (kisses her on the cheek) ....goodnight Mercy... 10:54 ~Silverstream 10:55 To Bluetopia (sighs to self and sits back in chair) ....Here's to a Superman-free New Year....
 * pauses and turns to him* ...Yes?
 * folds arms* Let me ask you, what good would I have done there? Had I stayed, I surely would've spoken in your defense. Can you imagine what Lois Lane would have done with that? She would paste it all over the papers that Lex Luthor needs his assistant to speak for him. Now, leaving you alone, forced you to act on your own. Not only do I believe it was good for you, but... I also believed you could handle yourself just fine.
 * folds arms* Because nobody else bothers to understand you, the way I do.
 * sits down and looks up at him steadily*
 * chuckles* There was... One other reason I left you alone tonight
 * slightly alarmed tone* Uh, no... No, I didn't mean it like that...
 * looks down* Maybe... A little...
 * stands up and rubs his shoulder affectionately* I should be going...
 * confused tone* It's late, and I just assumed... Do you want me to stay?
 * nods* Understood, no wake-up call... It's strange but convenient, my body never lets me sleep past 6:00....
 * small, and faintly sad smile* and... What will you be doing on the first day of 2016?
 * stiffens and blinks in shock - clears throat and nods, then leaves room*
