[ So goes Moneypenny's usual greeting. Which isn't to say that she's unhappy to hear from him (though, by the same token, the familiarity implicit in the hello doesn't mean she's particularly pleased either). Things always have been -- and by all estimations, always be -- a bit touch-and-go between the two of them. Though one might argue they prefer it that way. (At least the company continues to be interesting.) ]
You burn through bleedin' phones worse 'an I plow through sweet meat. [ Meat, that's what Moneypenny called those new to the game, the ones who found themselves in her arena for the first time. They ended up as little more than grease stains on asphalt by the time she was done with them. Little more than red stains on the soles of her shoes. ]
