[ She had no doubt about that, and she could help him more if she wasn't one, so she concedes, and flops back into her chair, letting out a big sigh. ]
Fiiiiiiiiine.
Let's start with Moira, I bet she can figure this out. [ But before she goes further, she points that finger again. ] But you'd better get used to this screen if you are goin' to start holdin' off on me, because I will damn well get my needs met, and I will make sure you know what you are missin'.
Moira? You want to—no. Nope. She won’t let me live it down. There’s go to be somebody else.
[ He can’t think of anyone just now, but surely there’s someone. Another adult in this place with the same affliction he could ask. Anyone but Moira. ]
I know you are proud man Jesse McCree, but you swallow that pride and do what it is necessary to figure this out because I was not meant to be celibate, and good lord neither were you.
[ And him trying to take it away from her, makes her want it that much more. She starts redoing her buttons and retrieves her tie to start getting that back in place. ]
So. You wanna make the call, or do you want me too, because I'm not above doin' what's necessary to get what I want. [ And she wants him. ]
[ That does get a laugh out of him despite his mounting sense of dread. The fact that he hasn’t completely put his foot down on the Moira thing is a testament to how much he really, really wants to get her alone—preferably in a room with a bed, but he’d compromise—right this very second.]
Won’t even give me a day to shop around?
[ He heaves a heavy sigh, shaking his head and looking stubbornly away at a wall or something out of the frame. ]
[ She gives him a teasing smile. ]I had plans for tonight. [ At the very least she did now. Plans for that very bedroom because this whole thing has made her feel a little clingy. ]
Alright then, I'll set this up for a conference call. And don't be so embarrassed, she's a doctor after all. Moira is nothin' if not a professional.
[ But even as he tries to keep his frown, his lips twitch with the threat of a smile. She's the one person he knows who might have him beat out for stubbornness. ]
Sure, yeah. Professional. But if you think she won't get a sick kick out of this, you're wrong.
[ She begins scrolling through the fluid for Moira. ]
I wouldn't fault her a sick kick out of this, hell... I would get a sick kick out of this if it wasn't at my expense. Couple months ago, I would have loved teasin' you about this. When I first arrived, I would have announced it on the network, so if she has a giggle over it and it gets me my sex life back on track, I say let her have the laugh.

Alright. Let’s get this over with.

Yeah darlin' see how far that gets you.
[ And then she holds up her finger. ] Alright, now she just has to pick up.
