(On Top of the) Mutherload

Negotiating With Terrorists.

It is 11:20 AM, and candy is Ava Scarlett's favourite food group.

She: Can I have something to eat, please?

Me: Yes, darling! What would you like?

She: Can I have some Swedish Berries?

Me: Um... okay.

She: Can I have ten?

Me: You can have six.

She: *pleading face* Ten?

Me: *mouths silently* Six.

She: *brow furrows* Not ten?

Me: *firmly* NOT ten. Six.

She: *cocks head* How about seven?

Me: *cocks eyebrow* How about five?

She: *defeated* Okay, I'll have six.

Aaaaand, scene.

Sometimes she treats me like it's my first day on this job. Like I'm new here, or something. Pfft... please.

I guess she's learning from her brother, who is also a little negotiator. Punk kid.

Got a terrorist looking to negotiate at your house?
