I tell Shannon I have George held hostage (Pink Trigger)

"I'm holding George hostage. Right now, I believe he's stewing in some circle of hell. There's still time to rescue him... if you give yourself to me, Shannon."

"I... don't think that I will."

What? George is boiling, Shannon. He's being made into a flash-fried turkey in my bubbling demon grease. If you'll surrender your body to me-

"George-sama would want me to have faith in him. I'm sure that wherever you've sent him, he will find his way back."

... Look, if you'll just kiss me, I'll bring him back. I don't even have to run the bases. A kiss would be fine.

"Ah... Perhaps you aren't aware, but... I believe George-sama was planning to propose to me before you sent him away, Mister Hip. It would ruin our engagement if I kissed another man, even for such an important cause, before he shows up. I'm sorry... Don't cry..."

Dammit, I'm not crying! In fact, at this moment, I was the picture of poise. I was just a little damp from the rain, so she saw a bit of that rainwater running from my blond hair down my cheek to my suit and tie. That's all.
