"And, no. Don't be too nice." She chews on a nail and looks up at him from the tops of her eyes. "Who else is going to annoy, frustrate, and keep him on his toes? I'm sure you spent plenty of long Sneaky Russian and Complete Asshole hours invested in that, you've got a rooted reputation. Don't back out now.

They need you to, 'quite frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn'."
