"I'm tired of games myself." When she was younger, before she had met Matthew, such games were fun. Now she had no use for them. She would much rather be straightforward with them, particularly men. "Thank you," she said of his condolences. It had been a few years since Matthew had died, and while she would never be entirely over it, she had accepted and moved on from his death.

Mary liked Tony, and not only because he was complimenting her. They seemed to be on the same page. "I think in my time people are just learning what women are capable of."

Tony nodded his head. "To be honest even where I come from we're still learning this. And it's probably saying something that it's been that many years and women are still fighting in the trenches. But I work with a pair of girls - worked with a pair of girls - that were perfectly capable of putting me in my place at any given moment."

And he'd learned a thing or two about being sexist, himself, in the process. "I once watched my girlfriend save my own life and then kick a bad guy's butt. I never really occurred to me before then that I'd taken her or her skills for granted. I mean, I made her my CEO. Learned a few things that day. Like how you can't put anyone into one neat box in your head."

	"I've had experiences like that as well," she said. "Ones where someone does something unsuspecting and it changes your view of them." Mary took another bite of her cake pop, chewing thoughtfully. "The flavor grows on you, I suppose." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"I"m not really sure I want to try it." Tony gave the remains of the orange cake pop a dubious look, then looked back at his green one.

If she was taking a bite, he figured he could, too. His face wrinkled a bit as the flavor hit is tongue, and it wasn't clear if he enjoyed the flavor or not until he said, "Definitely not lime. Sour, and kind of... apple? Apple like. With a side of coconut."
