"Ok, good. We're on the same page. You're welcome to flirt, and I will right back, but it is ... as humans would put it, as friends." She smiled some.

If one of us has a guest caller, though I think we both know there's only two for you, tie one on the door of the room. So no ... unexpected interruptions? I haven't actually had a caller since... well, a little over a year ago, but it could happen."
