[ Alright fine, Connor can adjust his tactics to accommodate Hank. ]

Should I send you a selection of recorded clips of instances where smug bullshit was, in fact, responded to positively by you?

[ Oh, sorry, did that narration say 'adjust'? It meant 'stick with the same tactic'. ]

oh Connor

[krabbypatdowns]

[Too bad for Hank that he actually is totally misdirecting.]

Hell no. I see what you're doing. You think you're going to have me all figured out, huh? I bet it's bothering the hell out of you that you can't scan me right now.

that crazy android

[ Connor sees this as having two possible solutions: either Hank is misdirecting, and Hank is sexually attracted to him. Or Hank is not misdirecting, because he isn't sexually attracted to him. Pursuing the issue too long, for either case, may be a bad choice and upset Hank.

Connor should back down.

Connor doesn't want to, but he should. ] Of course it is, Lieutenant. [ Honorific instead of first name = relaxing and non-sexual, right? ]

I would always rather be talking to you in person. [ #totallynailed being casual, right? ]

[krabbypatdowns]

Well well. Good to know something gets under your skin, and not just mine.

Am I too stoic for you, Lieutenant? I apologize. Of course I'm affected by events.

[ Hank they just had an entire revolution about how androids can feel things, come on ]

[krabbypatdowns]

...Jesus. I didn't mean that. Okay, I'm not actually mad at you.

[increaseinstability]

Okay. [ It sounds like Hank feels bad. Connor isn't feeling as confident about this confrontation now, either. He considers his next move. ]

I apologize. I think perhaps my technique in broaching this topic was...ill-advised.

[krabbypatdowns]

Relax, Connor. Just wanted to throw you off your game. Can't solve every mystery with a quick scan.

[increaseinstability]

Only most of them. [ Connor doesn't even technically type his messages, and yet that message is typed smugly. ]
