"teaser in semi-script form"
 
   Partly because I want to share the dialogue without giving away the details of the situation in which it's delivered, and partly because I, uh, haven't written the framing action yet.

SAKURA: Sorry, Sensei. It took me longer than I expected to get - who's this?

BARONESS (bemused): "Sensei"?

GRYPHON (sighing): Baroness, this is my apprentice, Sakura Kasugano. Sakura, meet Anastasia Sergeyevna Onatopp, Baroness de Cobray.

BARONESS: You have an apprentice? (laughs)

GRYPHON: What's so funny about that?

BARONESS: You told me once you would never take a student.

GRYPHON: You told me once you would never leave Destro.

BARONESS: Touché.

SAKURA (skeptically): You didn't tell me you knew any dominatrixes, Sensei.

BARONESS (annoyed): Ach! Why does everyone make that ridiculous assumption?

GRYPHON (amused): Maybe it's the spike-heeled jackboots. Or the leather bodysuit. Or the whip.

BARONESS: It was a gift from a friend, and it is a very useful tool! No one thinks Indiana Jones is a dominatrix.

GRYPHON (patiently): Ana, Indy doesn't wear a black leather catsuit and call himself "The Baroness".

SAKURA: Thank God.

BARONESS: I am a baroness! Dr. Jones is not a state.

GRYPHON: ... You have a point. Of a sort. And you're not really a baroness.

BARONESS: Of course I am!

GRYPHON: Ana. You "convinced" the Prince of Borokovia to ennoble you at gunpoint.

BARONESS: A simple misunderstanding.

GRYPHON: Right. So. Uh. What are you doing here?

BARONESS (lightly): Seeking the secrets of Shadolu's dark power. You?

GRYPHON: I'm just looking for someone. Say, uh, you wouldn't be planning to use that dark power for evil, would you?

BARONESS: Me? Surely not. Do I look like the kind of girl who would do a thing like that?

GRYPHON: I don't think you want me to answer that question, Ana.

BARONESS: Hmph.

GRYPHON: I notice you're not wearing the... snake head... logo... thing any more. Gone freelance?

BARONESS: In a manner of speaking. Why? Are you hiring?

GRYPHON: Well, that depends. Are you still a vicious, amoral terrorist without a shred of remorse or human decency?

BARONESS: Oh, please. You will grant that I have always had a shred of human decency. Or have you forgotten Malta?

GRYPHON: Okay, I'll stipulate to that.

BARONESS: And if I know you, you are going to all this trouble for the sake of a woman.

GRYPHON: That's true. And if I know you, you're going to all this trouble because the danger helps you forget that you still haven't found a meaningful direction for your life.

BARONESS: You are an annoying perceptive man. Have I told you that?

GRYPHON: It seems to me that was why you dumped me. The second time. But then, I think you were only drawn to me in the first place because I was the first guy you really got to know who didn't wear a mask 24-7.

BARONESS: Mmm... possible.

GRYPHON: Speaking of which, how's Destro?

BARONESS (coldly): I would not know. Why don't you check with his "secretary"? I believe her name is Leticia.

GRYPHON: Ouch. Well, I told you that guy was trouble.

BARONESS: You are an annoyingly perceptive man. Have I told you that?

GRYPHON: Oh, you're not still mad at me about what I had to do to Xenia, are you?

BARONESS: It was a trifle unsporting.

GRYPHON: Unsporting? She was trying to kill me! Anyway, I didn't hurt her... permanently. If anything, I like to think that I provided a valuable service.

BARONESS (skeptically): Service.

GRYPHON: Absolutely. If she's at all smart, she learned an important lesson about messing with forces you don't understand.

BARONESS (dryly): I'm sure the thought brings her great comfort.

SAKURA: Uh... I'll just be over here, missing all the subtext.

BARONESS and GRYPHON (in unison): When you're older.
