Thanks, Admiral. Best week ever.

Regina? We should talk.

[Spam for Kirk]

Shego had left the Infirmary pretty much as soon as she was able to walk unaided, winding up in her cabin just in time to have Regina George's file land in her lap. By the time she'd picked over the life story of Miss American Sociopath 2004, dealing with her felt like something that could wait until after she'd had some rest.

It was one of the only times she hadn't knocked on Kirk's door before letting herself in and making her way over to his bed. She couldn't tell if he was awake or not; she'd purposely made a bit of noise on her way into the room to warn him she was there.

"Jim?"

[OOC: Gah sorry for the Shego spam lately. THINGS KEEP HAPPENING.]

As if. She didn't outmaneuver anyone. She got lucky, the shady little cretin. And besides which? I tried to be a friend to that girl. She started it when she went after my boyfriend in the first place.

[gotgreenmagic]

[Shego holds up a hand.] Okay - okay. We're getting off topic. We can fight this out another time, but today's agenda was work and scheduling. You, me, ten hours a week. And to answer your shrill earlier question, what we're gonna do will vary. I go running or swim every day and it wouldn't kill you to join me. And since eventually you're gonna go home and finish high school, working on not forgetting what you already know wouldn't hurt either.

[fuglyslut]

[As much as it pains her, Regina can see the value in this. A gentle workout will help her get back keep her figure. And studying is all the lame-ass, but it's not like she wants to be one of those flunking burnouts.]

Fine. But if you expect me to expose myself to that much chlorine, I'm going to need access to quality skin and hair care products. You can't send me home looking like the Swamp Thing, right?

[gotgreenmagic]

[...she really isn't in a position to critique this.]

Anything in your room already will top itself up at the end of the month. Give me a list of everything that was in your bathroom before you lost it - I'll restore the bare minimum this month and I'll keep the rest coming if you stick to your schedule.

[fuglyslut]

[Well, it's not exactly what she'd call a victory, but it's something. And she really misses her good shampoo.]

Deal.

Now, why didn't you tell me about the pool sooner? I could work there, couldn't I? I could totally be a lifeguard. [Read: do nothing and wear a bathing suit all day. PERFECT JOB.]

[gotgreenmagic]

[Deadpan:] Show me your first aid and water safety credentials and I'll think about it.

[fuglyslut]

[This receives an icy smile of pure fury. How dare you ask her for qualifications, Shego.]

Oops, I left them back in the world where everything doesn't suck.

[She might be getting a little cranky right now.]

Anyway, if someone drowns, they can just reset or whatever, right? Who cares?

[gotgreenmagic]

[Still on the tail end of the death toll herself, Shego kind of wants to throw something heavy at her but somehow discovers the self-control to not do that.]

Aaaand your complete disinterest in guarding people's lives is why you'll never be a lifeguard.

[fuglyslut]

[It is, again, a fairly unassailable point, but that doesn't stop her from rolling her eyes. She finishes her coffee and sets it down neatly.]

Is there anything else I should know?

[gotgreenmagic]

No, I think that's enough for now. Is there anything you wanna know?

[fuglyslut]

[She considers this for a moment, but there's really only one thing that comes to mind. After all, Shego did make a pretty bad first impression... Regina tucks her hair behind her ear and leans forward conspiratorially.]

So what's the sitch with James?

[gotgreenmagic]

[Hearing Kim Possible's catchphrase falling out of Regina's mouth prompts Shego to draw on every reserve of inner strength she has just to not punch her in the face. Instead, she hides an unattractive facial contortion behind her coffee cup before taking a sip.]

He used to be my warden. 'What's the sitch' apropos of what exactly?

[fuglyslut]

[Oh. Really.]

But you totally like him, right? I mean, it's not like I don't understand why -- he's scorching hot.

[gotgreenmagic]

Yeah, no, I've had two years to get acquainted with his less 'scorching hot' aspects. And FYI, you actually are too young for him.

[fuglyslut]

Really? Because you seemed really mad at him, for someone who's so-- unacquainted. [Tee hee. Gossip gossips, girlfriend!]

[gotgreenmagic]

[She frowns.] Did I say 'unacquainted'? We're friends, and yeah, I make a point of telling him he's about to do something stupid before he does it.

[fuglyslut]

Friends. Of course.

[gotgreenmagic]

[She rolls her eyes so hard they practically rattle in her head.]

And with that, I think we are done for today.

[OOC: I spoke to Fire about Chromie letting Regina work in the library and it's cool with her, so Regina starting at her new job would have to be backdated by about a week now.]

[fuglyslut]

((H'okay! She will hate it. D:<))

[Yeah, whatever, Shego, she's onto you. Have a knowing smile as she flounces out your door.]
