It's been building this past jump cycle - longer, even. I see.

Severus, I've noticed, makes a point of correcting use of my formerly held title. I thought to save him the trouble. ( if wryness translates at all through text-- it's probably understandable if her feelings on the subject are complex. )

Stark insisted on calling me Congressman up until the day he left. He thought it was funny. I prefer names, personally. We may not all be on the same level at home, but we're trapped here just the same as each other. We eat the same food, we sleep in identical beds. It's just easier that way.

I use yours; I've no objection to you using mine.

In that case I'll only call you 'Queen Nuala' when I'm trying to impress upon you how valuable I find your advice. And you can stick to calling me Senator when it's for my own good. Sound fair?

( and now it's nuala who laughs, abruptly, above her own device. )

Oh, you should call me your grace only when I'm being especially queenly, and I shall call you Senator only when you're especially exasperating.

I always thought that was what the word 'flyboy' was for.

If you've a preference for the term--!

[cargojet]

As an insult it's got a charming ring to it.

[favouring]

Then I will of course defer to your greater experience.

( guys focus. )

[cargojet]

Always good to know.

[ Never! ]
