Heroically,

and it does take a lot of effort on her part,

she does not answer this with thrilled you’re done with the pointless dick measuring, I’m sure yours is bigger, thank the Maker we can move on. It’s a close run thing, but probably not helpful and definitely not actually satisfying. (What’s the point in fighting with people you don’t know or like? Fight with people whose conclusions matter to you, it’s meaner but it’s worth more.)

She nearly says, well, that’s what I was trying to ask, for fuck’s sake— but fine, she had been distracted by lead in questions. She’d have got to that, directly, but she hadn’t, and whatever the fuck this is had happened instead. So, fine: that’s not technically accurate, and if it were her on the other side in this kind of mood, she’d probably instantly quibble it and they’d be trapped here forever. Instead, frankly: “Are you offering?”
