[ oh good it's not just him ]

Yeah? Well I'm willing to hear it.

[fishingforcompliments]

Trying it once or twice and then stopping once you realize it did not work, before being thrown onto the ground...?

[frostythehitman]

And? If you don't try something else, then that's just giving up.

[fishingforcompliments]

Was there really that significant a difference between what you were doing before you were thrown to the ground, and what you were doing that got you thrown to the ground?

[frostythehitman]

...other than going faster? No.

[fishingforcompliments]

Perhaps you might want to try a different method rather than the same method but faster...?

[frostythehitman]

Alright. You got any ideas on what those different methods should be?

[fishingforcompliments]

Well, if someone went to the trouble of bringing us here, leaving could not possibly be as simple as strolling out through the front door. Perhaps it might be beneficial to familiarize ourselves with the entirety of our surroundings and look for hidden exits?

[frostythehitman]

[ Oh. That's actually smart. Bucky nods and looks around the rest of the lobby. ]

Good idea. Back doors, employee access, fire exits, maybe even a hidden roof hatch somewhere...

[fishingforcompliments]

Precisely. I think that may be a more efficient use of one's time than going around in circles.

[frostythehitman]

We should start casing the place, then.

You know how to do that?

[fishingforcompliments]

Wandering around taking note of the things that may be of use to us? I believe that is referred to as "casing the joint"!

[frostythehitman]

...you've never done this before, have you.

[fishingforcompliments]

What makes you say that?

[frostythehitman]

Because you said "I believe that is referred to as 'casing the joint.'"

[fishingforcompliments]

They use different phrases from world to world! In mine, I have heard it referred to as "skulking about suspiciously". But "casing the joint" seemed more accurate.

[frostythehitman]

It's also a lot less judgey about it.

[ SKULKING? SUSPICIOUS? LIKE, WOW, RUDE MUCH????

I mean. it's right. BUT STILL. ]

[fishingforcompliments]

[she nods]

Yes, I suppose "skulking about suspiciously" does sound rather judgmental...
