Naturally, as soon as the salons closed I put in place my plan to become a bearded lady, it’s going well so far. Any such invitation would be gladly accepted, and who knows, maybe you’ll finally be the people to kill off my inner grinch for once and for all. I’ll do an action movie with you on the condition that I get to be the badass and you’re my damsel in distress. Agree to that and you’ve got yourself a deal. Honestly at the rate we’re going all of the stories I’ll be telling my grandkids will involve crazy shit we’ve managed to get up to, you’re a bad influence! As if your image needs me around to improve it. But hey, I’m feeling charitable, I’ll let you have the rumour if it’ll help you feel cool around your friends. You can thank me later. Do you often offer out your services as a teacher of the languages of Tolkien? I promise I won’t tell anyone you took your student drinking, it can be our secret.
If it gets impressive enough will you consider a career change and run away to join the circus? And I’m feeling pretty confident about that, not so much me, but if you can manage to not feel something when the little dude grabs your hand to run towards some reindeer together then you’re stonier than I thought you were. I’m down for that - it’s 2020, it’s about time the lead male realistically gets himself into situations that the female protagonist has to get him out of. That’s usually the way round it is in real life anyway, men aren’t the heroes. Bad influence?! I’d say that’s a good influence, just think how cool your grandkids would think you are after these stories. Definitely wouldn’t hurt it, that’s for sure, but that does mean you’d need to agree to at least one pub night out with the boys back home. This is the first time it’s coming in handy, I’ll admit, it’s a less impressive skill than you might think, but as long as you appreciate it then it’s not all going to waste, right? And that sounds like a good idea, I’m not sure how appropriate the whole ‘teacher/student getting drunk together’ thing is, so we’ll keep it to ourselves.
