Pixels And Pistols (HBC) 5. A Serious Meeting

Chapter 5: A Serious Meeting

？？？

*head down, stirring her tea* So. Today's meeting is about....

The two subordinates listen closely, One of them looking away, smoking a cigar, as the lady finally lifts her head and responds

Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩

Thinking of better pickup lines!!!!!

？？？

Great heavens' no *facepalms, still looking away, groaning*

Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩

Come now Reggie, be serious about this

Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩

Turn around, we don't have time for groaning and disagreement

The person who was looking away finally turned to face all the members. The look on his face clearly said that he was tired of the discussion before it even began

Regulus ⟨Regulus Navarro⟩

*takes a drag from the cigar, exhales a puff of smoke* My queen, you do realise that this plan could potentially creep the poor guy out, don't you?

Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩

ಠಿ⁠ヮ⁠ಠ creeping him out?? Whatever do you mean?

Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩

I'm sure he's giggling around, delighted by my mastery in cheesy lines (⁠*⁠´⁠ω⁠｀⁠*⁠) Aren't I a dedicated pursuer?

Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩

Don't you agree Quinn?

Quinn ⟨Quinton Evans⟩

Definitely Boss!!!! *excited*

Quinn ⟨Quinton Evans⟩

I'm sure he'll have fallen head over heels for you

Regulus ⟨Regulus Navarro⟩

*internal thought* *what's wrong with their heads*

Regulus ⟨Regulus Navarro⟩

*cough* My queen, let's talk logically shall we?

Regulus ⟨Regulus Navarro⟩

Number one, the guy has no idea who's sending him the messages. Number Two, receiving strange messages from someone unknown at night is not particularly appealing

Regulus ⟨Regulus Navarro⟩

Number three, I'm sure he's trying his best to track us down because he's pride has been hurt. Imagine being the so called best and someone beats you at your own game

Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩

Well, I think he's trying to track us down cause he's fallen in love with my lines and wants to find me

Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩

(⁠ ⁠ꈍ⁠ᴗ⁠ꈍ⁠)(⁠ ⁠ꈍ⁠ᴗ⁠ꈍ⁠)(⁠ ⁠ꈍ⁠ᴗ⁠ꈍ⁠)

Regulus ⟨Regulus Navarro⟩

*damn looks like love makes you crazy*

Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩

Besides, My messages are sweet enough to melt his suspicious thoughts so it's alright

Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩

And stop changing the topic little Reggie, We need to come up with more pickup lines

Quinn ⟨Quinton Evans⟩

Boss how about you write him a letter??? Aren't single lined messages too short to convey your feelings??? I'm sure they would be more impactful

Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩

*thinks* That is actually a good idea! Let me whip up something for my pup

Regulus ⟨Regulus Navarro⟩

*there's no stopping her, is there*

Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩

Reggie, how exactly do you show him my messages??

Regulus ⟨Regulus Navarro⟩

I hack in, make his screen glitch and make the words appear there for 5 minutes and then exit from the system, so he can't track me down

Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩

Oh~ And how are these messages scripted?

Regulus ⟨Regulus Navarro⟩

Scripted? *scratches head* Oh just the basic. Hang on let me show you. *Opens the laptop and types something, turns it around to show her*

Regulus ⟨Regulus Navarro⟩

Like this

Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩

(⁠-⁠_⁠-⁠;⁠)⁠・⁠・⁠・

Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩

щ⁠(⁠゜⁠ロ⁠゜⁠щ⁠)

Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩

Reggie what the hell??????

Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩

This looks like a creepy haunted messages?????? What formatting is this (⁠ʘ⁠言⁠ʘ⁠╬⁠)

Regulus ⟨Regulus Navarro⟩

*surprised* Well, you didn't mention anything, so I thought your only focus was on the message my queen

Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩

Well that's because I didn't know you were so dumb!!!!! Where are hearts and romantic fonts with a lovely background!???

Regulus ⟨Regulus Navarro⟩

(⁠٥⁠↼⁠_⁠↼⁠) My apologies my queen, next time I'll change the formatting

Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩

You better do that. Go shu and make a default sweet and nice background, sample font and lotttttssssss of hearts

Regulus ⟨Regulus Navarro⟩

*exhales some more smoke, stands up to leave while thinking* *Are we really mafia?? This makes me feel like We should open an agency for lovers to send each other messages*

Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩

*looks at Quinn, excited* Now Quinn, Let's think of more lines and ideas shall we?

Quinn ⟨Quinton Evans⟩

Your word is my command boss!
