[now that he knows how to work it, the video flicks on and a VERY pissed-looking Facilier is sitting there glowering at the camera. he may be slightly tipsy from a bout of drinking on deck when the events of the seance were done

So easily slipping into threats?

[amagicalmystery]

Shut up.

[takes a moment for the rageface to settle]

It's been a bad couple of days.

[happinessboys]

Obviously. But that's no reason to throw a childish fit.

[amagicalmystery]

Well gracious me, thank you for explaining. I'd never thought of that.

[oh he will totally regret this whole post in a few hours]

You have fun with your knowledge and your range of human feelings, Beatty?

responded to the morning after this is posted, natch

[grand_lotus]

Good morning, Doctor.

How are you feeling?

Iroh's experience with whiny teenagers = surprise bonus

[amagicalmystery]

[vaguely hung over and like he wants to fall over the side of the boat, thanks]

You're smart. Care to guess?

[grand_lotus]

Other matters aside, I imagine you are quite pleased that Mr. Booth has decided to call you by your name.

[amagicalmystery]

It's the little things like that, keeps a man going.

[iwillfuckuup]

...Right.

[Private] - Morgan's embarrassed? But not enough to avoid everybody.

Hey.

Sorry -- sometimes even benign floods can get rough on us in weird ways.

...I don't think you're a charlatan.

[private] they can be miserable together!

[amagicalmystery]

...thanks.

I remember what you told me when I got here, days like this. Not like I'm tryin' for the model citizen award. But you think there's a point. So that's something.

Fair enough. And yeah -- nobody's expecting you to keep it in if something messes with you, here. React. Just -- remember how you react, and think on it later.

Me? I'm going to do my reacting at the bottom of a bottle.

Fun while it lasted? But I hate cleaning up messes.

If it's all the same, I only want to go through this kind of trouble once, 'stead of tracing it over in my head.

A drink sounds very good, though.

[Private] Strikes unreadable because hell no the flood has no lingering effects.

[darknessb4me]

Sorry for assum

It seemed to have an independent will. Still seems.

[Private] A-Arthas. <3

[amagicalmystery]

Yes and no. It's a piece of me, we're linked up. S'why it forgot everything when I did.

[and why it tells the truth when Facilier hides his emotions, but he tries to ignore that]

I see you aren't worse for wear.

[Private]

[darknessb4me]

Do take precautions to make sure it gets no ideas of rebellion - you would be surprised at what can and can't decide it wants a will of its own.

You could say it is difficult to faze me.

[Private]

[amagicalmystery]

Smart man. If Shadow would've bailed on me, though, I know exactly when it would've happened. It's still here.
