I know she knows that, which is why I was confused about the level of conviction with which she blamed me for it. But I do owe her like six favors at this point so maybe you're onto something.
Perfect. I have more radiation readings for you to go through.
It's because you possess both shame and ethics, and I don't. Crysta knows there's no point in being disappointed in me for violating her privacy. But I'm willing to grant you one favour, seeing how you've somehow made yourself an indentured servant to my sister.
I had a thought about speeding that process up, but if it's the only reason you keep inviting me to hang out with you...
So, sorry: she didn't blame you because she knew you wouldn't feel bad even though you did do it, and she did blame me because she knew I would feel bad even though I didn't do it?
DM, 10/11
You owe me a favor, by the way.
DM, 10/11
Do I? I don't remember this.
DM, 10/11
Crysta blamed me for breaking into her room when everyone's powers were swapped around and I owe her a favor for that. You've got to pay me back.
DM, 10/11
She does know I was there too. Are you sure she isn't just giving you a hard time because you're an easy mark?

DM, 10/11
It worked, didn't it?
DM, 10/11
Yeah, it's a great system for the two of you. You get to misbehave all you want and she gets a free dogsitter whenever she needs one.
DM, 10/11
You have an affinity with Gordo. Who else, pray tell, should she ask to be the dogsitter?
DM, 10/11
I don't mind watching the dog. It's just the principle of the thing.
DM, 10/11
You should stand up to her. Ask her to pay you. She bullies you because you make it easy. And far too fun.
DM, 10/11
I didn't realize I was being bullied in this case.
DM, 10/11
You definitely are. That said, it's also a show of affection from her.
DM, 10/11
Yeah, I'm familiar with this concept.
DM, 10/11
You make it rewarding. But if you ever get tired of it, Crysta will like you even if you say no to her.
DM, 10/11
I do sometimes.
DM, 10/11
This arrangement seems fine then. I misbehave, you dogsit, Crysta gets to manipulate a boy, and you've bargained a favour out of it.
DM, 10/11
I[...] Yeah, I guess that is what I'm saying.Next time she blames me for something you did I'm just telling her it was you though.
DM, 10/11
Oh, please do. I'd love to see what she does in retaliation.
DM, 10/11
I'm on my way down. See you in a minute.
DM, 10/11
See you soon.
