( There's some truth to what I said. There aren't a lot of people who would find you funny. )

[Because they have sticks shoved permanently up their asses.]

[inflori]

( So what? You already said you like me. )

[adamance]

( Yes, but it's not entirely bullshit, either. )

[Nor is she emotionally expressive enough to ... laugh ... which is really where this is going.]

[inflori]

( Uh-huh.

We'll see. )

[ If he'll get her to laugh, is what the link between them suggests, a smile on his end of the conversation. It's not a matter of getting Lexa to enjoy a joke, though, more like his vein of stubborn competitiveness setting a new finish line. ]

[adamance]

( Yes, we shall see. )

[It's a finish line that's set, and one that seems to be a tidy end to the conversation. Lexa does not say good-bye, but she assumes that the message will be sent through the link. It's not abrupt at all: there will be more conversations in the future. They've said their part here.]
