/ god save me I WILL DIE

Change is coming, dear readers. Prepare yourselves. Bridgerton Season 4 returns on February 26.

you know that this can cause you serious trouble, right?

( a smile curls on his lips, yet it doesn't reach his eyes. his brows arching up, arms crossed on his chest. ) yes, you? i'm listening, what happened to your bundle of words? ( he gestures at the candle, which was miserably on the floor now. ) +

well then, why are you still in my office and keep humiliating me by arguing and throwing your oh-so-biting words at me?

if you think this justifies your attitude, let me clarify, it doesn't. yes, i knew who you were, mostly because your work is said to be remarkable.

an inkling that always turns out true.

“ that's another rude thing to say. so you like old men. ” he scoffs, throwing the small cushion at her lightly.

He let out a sigh, fingers scratching the back of his neck. “ Thank you, i feel less embarrassed. ” He mumbled and took another sip, savouring the taste of the coffee. Then Ben scrunched his nose. “ It was fun until the drinking become too much. ”

he can't help it. she's more than welcome.

( blue hues widen, he just leans down in time. the candle hits the wall instead, a sharp, clearly annoyed exhale, a few long steps, he leans in towards her. ) that was a very wrong move.

i have no explanation or excuses to give you, miss baek. you tell all those without making a self-criticism at first.

no good mornings, no how are you, not a single introduction and you expected me to welcome you with open arms and a smile on my face? perhaps you should’ve listened to the rumours better.

( a deep inhale and exhale. ) alright, then i suppose you shouldn’t waste your time in the bigheaded’s office anymore. good luck at finding another academic who will agree collaborating with you, which… seems quite improbable now.

i’m not lying to you, you’re just another fellow academic for me. even if i’m mistaken by not responding to your mails, your attitude turns the cards upside down, miss baek.

you’re completely following your prejudice and baseless bias against me. so apologies if I don’t take your criticism as constructive.

i would consider it, when you come here to see me face to face. but i’m afraid your impulsive and passive aggressive attitude doesn’t work. i read about you, you have a spectacular academic career so far yet you rather believe in rumours about a professor you don’t even know.

if you didn’t burst into my office, insult me the moment you stepped in here, continue doing so, then i would have been willing to listen and greet you in a nice manner.

and you, as a post doctoral, should stop telling me how to do my job. this is my department, my field, i am chosen as the department chair for a reason. maybe you should try and keep calm.

preening peacock ? now that’s a creative one. alright then, miss baek, then i think you can find a less pretentious professor to write your paper with, which will be difficult i’m afraid since their fields are far from crossing with yours.
