Why did you phase through a car wash?

[immaterialgirl]

I was hiding in a target's trunk to transport myself to a secret location. Suddenly everything started shaking. Had no clue what was going on.

[so_many_pockets]

That is absolutely hilarious, I'm sorry.

[immaterialgirl]

I escaped soap free, in case you were worried.

[so_many_pockets]

As if I would ever bet on a car wash versus you. Obviously you would be able to handle yourself perfectly well through that.

[immaterialgirl]

My suit probably could have used a good scrub, though.

[so_many_pockets]

I think probably a sponge or a leather cleaning kit would be better for that, but thank you for giving me that detail so I know to picture you very dirty in this story.

[immaterialgirl]

I was three days into the mission. How do you think I smelled?

[so_many_pockets]

All three days in the trunk?

[immaterialgirl]

On and off, yes. Sometimes they stopped for the night or for gas and I was able to stretch my legs.

[so_many_pockets]

I bet you smelled very dedicated to your job, then.

[immaterialgirl]

That's such a kind way of putting it.

[so_many_pockets]

Not inaccurate, though, is it?

[immaterialgirl]

After everything I did for that job... Really puts it in perspective how worthless such dedication was.

[so_many_pockets]

Have you ever heard of competency porn?

[immaterialgirl]

... what little I know of porn and what I know of being competent aren't really providing any understanding of what that possibly means in conjunction, no.

[so_many_pockets]

It is not necessarily porn in the sexual sense - although it can be - it is more like when people on the internet post pictures of their food and call it food porn? When it is something that is very appealing and enjoyable to look at or think about or things like that.

You're competency porn. So the dedication may not have been recognized or appreciated in the moment, but it is not worthless.

Of course they don't actually mean competency, that is a low bar, they mean exceptionally skilled, but English... is a ridiculous language.
