I've never driven a car-- maybe I'll just put you in the backseat and learn one of these days.

[That was a 'scary threat' right? Sure. Okay. Moving on...]

Hmm... No, perhaps I'll just walk a few steps and knock on your door. I can actually say I know where you sleep.

[forwardmomentum]

All right, fair. You take me in a car, and I'll take you in a lightflyer. That'll be at least as much of a fun rude. Ask Ivan about it sometime.

But a visit doesn't sound all that threatening to me. Actually, it sounds quite pleasant.

[tearmeanewone]

If it's anything like sliding on a rail by a hook, I'm sure it'll be a swell time.

Oh come on Miles, don't make me promise not to visit you to adequately punish you for worrying me. That would be very disheartening for me.

[forwardmomentum]

Very well, Miss DeWitt, I accept the terms of your surrender.

It would be nice to see you again, though, Elizabeth. But, uh, perhaps when I look a little bit less like a freshly thawed corpse.

[tearmeanewone]

We'll see just how much surrendering I'll be doing, Lord Vorkosigan.

But yes, it would be nice to see you again too, Miles. I actually am worried about not seeing you again, with your current track record, and while I wouldn't mind seeing you however you look right now, if you want to warm up a little bit first I won't argue that.

[She didn't want to push him, if this was his polite way out.]

[forwardmomentum]

[ god, no, he really doesn't want her to see him like this. he's odd-looking enough, this probably just makes him look downright grotesque. ]

Don't worry, Elizabeth, you'll see me again. I'll make sure of it. But...perhaps later. I've got some recovering to do.

But -- I really would like to see you again. I mean that.

[tearmeanewone]

I mean it too. Rest well, Miles-- I'll keep those books in need of sorting warm for you.
