Other people, they just go for it, but you, you like to keep something in reserve. Limit your exposure, you know?

Part-time, minimal commitment, maximum ironic distance.

Reinforce this thought, but only a little.

That's right, H. Fucking... Keep them guessing. No one can tell your next move. Or lack thereof.

Not enough slots.

No. My commitments are absolute.

Oof. Alright. Sounds kind of harsh, but, fucking... If that's how you roll.

In the eternal struggle between main things and side things, you have chosen a side. The side of not really choosing.

Meanwhile, your assignment lies neglected by the side of the road.

It's called 'diversification'.

Makes sense. If you really committed to something, who knows? Could become your main thing.

What can I say? I'm a spy of all trades.

I just don't want to be hurt again.

Who are your superiors to decide what your real assignment is?

I just haven't found a cause worthy of my absolute devotion.

Seems like you're pioneering a whole new, fucking... school of espionage.

What's this? I do everything 100%.

Sure thing, H. Definitely. You go hard, you just don't want everyone to know.

That sounds like me, but only a little.

Fuck yeah. Seems like you're pioneering a whole new, fucking... school of espionage.

Yo, H... you ever think about death?

Yes, but only a little.

That's cool, habibti. That's probably the right amount to think about death.

What do you mean?

Yes, but only ironically.

Nice, habibti. Very healthy. Irony is under-appreciated, you know?

Yes.

Ouch, habibti. That sounded kinda real, you know?
