"Oh, god, I'm sorry. Nothing - I mean I don't have any problem with it, I, uhhh-"
He took off his glasses and rubbed his face.
"I'm an ass. I'm an ass, sorry."

"A problem with what?" she said, frowning tiredly and blinking heavily. "You're- I don't know what's going on, I'm too tired for this."

"Oh, god, this is what I get for cutting my hair," she moaned. "I mean- not that it's a bad- oh, god-"
She put down her coffee and pressed her forehead into her hand.

"I didn't even think of the haircut."
He laughed uncomfortably.

"I'm sure Veidt will leave you alone," he said, trying to be sympathetic and to return to an earlier, less awkward topic. "I have a feeling the reason he's making you come is me... you're going to be the only person there I know."
It occurred to him he had no idea why she'd brought up Nina Fortner in a swimsuit anymore, but Megan was still something of a mystery, for all she didn't act like one.

"One big science party, I guess," she shrugged. "He's invited some herpetologist to come along too. I haven't met the guy yet but I guess Mr. Veidt's known him for like twenty years."

"Wasn't there... something about that last Bond villain..." He was rubbing his eyes. "Wasn't he supposed to be based off Veidt?"

"I haven't seen it, but I read that. He made a big deal about not suing. That's how he gets people- he acts like he's doing a favor."
She went silent for a moment.
"I read they asked David Bowie to play the part, too. That took balls, considering everybody knows what Mr. Veidt was doing with Bowie in the 70s."

Megan burst into shocked laughter.
"Oh- oh God, you didn't know that?"
