[ the continuation ]

Now, now, can we just enjoy this bonding experience without all this questioning?

[icebroker]

You can't exactly blame me for being a bit curious when the other shoe is bound to drop though, can you?

Don't get me wrong, I can more than live with a mutually beneficial relationship. It's at least more productive than mutually assured destruction.

[cherylblossoms]

Given everything you're going through, you're not really at top form, now are you? Not even a real challenge.
Especially when one of us is far more skilled with destroying than the other.

[icebroker]

If by "one of us" you're trying to refer to yourself, then you really must be more delusional than I thought. But unlike you, Cheryl, I no longer feel the need to gloat about it as if it's actually something to be proud of.

[cherylblossoms]

Actually, dear, I meant you. There are just so many stories about your little life before you regaled us here at Riverdale.

Things I'm sure Nancy Drew and Ginger Spice don't know.

[icebroker]

Should it matter? What kind of things, exactly, do you think I'm hiding?

[cherylblossoms]

You'll find that in this town, Veronica, the truth always comes out. Things have a way of revealing themselves.

Whether it is the actual truth or not is all relative. The narrative is the important part.

[icebroker]

Sage wisdom. You must be speaking from extensive personal experience.

[cherylblossoms]

You've met mommy and daddy dearest.
Jason was always their favorite.

[icebroker]

Not that I don't sympathize, but you're the one who let that truth out yourself. At least to me.

[cherylblossoms]

Maybe I did to make you feel better about your messed up family.
Or maybe I told you to make you let your guard down around me.

Either or. Or could be neither.

[icebroker]

If you want to be friends, it is okay to just come right out and say it. I don't bite.

[cherylblossoms]

That's disappointing.
But friends with you?
What's in it for you?

[icebroker]

Fine, let me rephrase that: I don't bite without a good reason.

No shortage of headaches, I imagine - but it's not a contract, Cheryl. However rarely it might happen, when you take a break from your whole soulless witch thing you can actually be decent company.

[cherylblossoms]

That sounds far more promising and I'm interested.

My, my, Veronica, is that a joke on my gorgeous ginger locks?

Or is this a cue for a round of 'I've put a spell on you'.

[icebroker]

Be careful what you wish for, Cheryl. When I do bite, I do it hard.

I think that one's up to you. And feel free to surprise me. No song is unseasonal as long as it's part of a serenade.

[cherylblossoms]

As if I'd expect anything less.
It seems you're the one with the musical styling.

[icebroker]

I refuse to believe someone as good friends with Josie as you are doesn't have some musical styling of her own.

You wouldn't happen to be shy, would you?

[cherylblossoms]

You'll just have to wait and see. Play your cards right.

Moi? Not at all. Why deprive the people of my presence?

[icebroker]

Sounds like my kind of game.

And funnily enough, I wondered the same thing. But then I remembered who I was talking to - "Cheryl Blossom" and "inscrutable" go together practically as well as milk and honey.

[cherylblossoms]

Blossoms are well known for their games, Veronica.
I'm more smooth as silk. Honey soaked words.
