So I heard a little birdy tell me you were looking for scotch.

And if I were?

[sphererpmod]

Then I may be open to making a small exchange.

[nobasisinfact]

With whom am I making this exchange with? Or are you planning on remaining a shadowy figure lurking in the dark?

[That second part is just dripping with sarcasm.]

[sphererpmod]

Politics best happens in the dark. It’s like sausages that way.

[nobasisinfact]

I disagree. A lack of accountability for one's actions is what causes a good amount of both political and religious corruption.

Of course, it seems a bit of a moot point to be stating that to someone using bribery to attain an outcome favorable to them.

[He might be enjoying this. Even if it's a shadowy figure who is clearly corrupt, they're at least being intelligent about it.]

[sphererpmod]

Well at least there isn’t religion here in the Sphere.

But something tells me you’re not opposed to bribery in the form of a fair amount of good scotch, Dr. Strand.

[nobasisinfact]

Not yet.

What's your reason for wanting this so badly that you're willing to bribe people for it?

[sphererpmod]

Why do you care what my reasoning is?

[nobasisinfact]

Call it curiosity.

[sphererpmod]

Because money is what makes society go 'round and I'm sick of buying and selling shit with bullshit secrets. I don't see you wanting to offer yours up to get some scotch.

[nobasisinfact]

Interesting. I'll take the scotch.

[sphererpmod]

Your vote then?

[nobasisinfact]

That was the deal.

[sphererpmod]

I’ll have it brought to your dome in half an hour.
