[ That makes Dean bark out a laugh. Good luck indeed.] I'm pretty sure 'irreparable emotional damage' is a bad guy's MO, not something they pay up for.

You're prettier too [ He winks at her when he says it. ] Geek Boy wants me to read the news. You're happy to report it to me.

[eloquentness]

If the world worked that way, I'm sure everyone would've been lining up.

[ Iris laughs, more than a little pleased at Dean's honesty. As weird as Grace had been, she had also been one of the more entertaining interviewees she'd ever had. Small mercies? Maybe?? ]

I'd hope you'd read one or two of them. [ Her voice grows more hopeful, even though she knows to expect better: ] Especially if my name's right on the byline?

[dudeimbatman]

Hey, I'd take some emotional trauma in order to be a millionare. [ Emotional trauma is something that Dean is famliar with even as he tries to put on a facade that he doesn't care.

Anything that makes her day easier and more interesting.

He grins a little at her comment. ] You kidding? Some of them even get cut out and tossed in my lockbox.

[eloquentness]

[ She rolls her eyes at the compliment, though there's no denying the crinkle at the edge of her eyes, let alone the laugh that escapes her lips. Of course. ]

You didn't! [ In this day and age, she didn't think people still clipped articles... ] Dean, seriously - you didn't have to.

[ Hey, she'd think he was super weird if he said Sam was prettier than her, wouldn't she? Okay then.

He shrugs at her exclamation. He'd even forced Sam to print some of them off because Dean likes tangible things, things that he can hold in his hands. ] I know I didn't have to. I like being able to hold things.

[eloquentness]

You're gonna be one of the last big holdouts, aren't you?

[ Iris laughs, still undeniably pleased. People like Dean keep her in business, and as technology shifts, she's sure she'll find her place, wherever that is. ]

I don't think print will ever go away, for the record, but it's definitely part of your charm.

Somebody's got to be. All this technical bullshit. People lose literal touch with everything.[ This is a topic he could rant on for a while. He still has cassettes in his car, Iris. What did you expect?]

Because of holdouts like me. [ He is smug about that. ]

[eloquentness]

[ She's more than likely rolled her eyes at those cassettes - if she hasn't made a quip about how she's a little too young to remember them. (#yikes.) ]

As long as you don't slide right into the other extreme, I don't think there's anything wrong with that.

[dudeimbatman]

[ Yeah, she hadn't made him feel like an old man or anything that day. He still likes his cassette tapes.]

You mean like rejecting computers and shit? Nah. It's good for porn. [ He grins, one eyebrow raising at her. ]
