[Today Albert is in the sitting room of his house, leafing through a few books idly. The weather is disappointingly rainy for summer, but it's a pleasant change from the heat earlier in the week ( Read more... )

[A rainy day probably isn't the best day for inspiration if some of those productive urges take you in and out of the house, although considering the recent weather trends, it certainly is nicer than it has been. At least, that's how it was for Raine in the morning: a food shopping trip, some clothes shopping, some browsing at the flower shop, some general new decorations for the house, as well as the means to make new decorations that she could spend the day working on in some capacity.

And throughout all of these trips, every time she returned to the house, someone always seemed to be sleeping. The wrong Silverberg at that. She's concerned, of course, so she ended up basing the 'work' area for her creativity in the sitting room as well. Mostly sewing related, with some curtains draped over the extra chair, but there are a few paintings drying on the coffee table as well as the table in the dining room. At some point when Albert's awake, he'll likely see her sketching again.]

[When Albert finally stirs, it's mostly to make himself more comfortable on the couch. He throws one arm over his eyes, as if trying to block out the light from the ceiling light fixture.]

[The movement catches her attention, and she looks up, waiting to see if he's planning to wake up completely or just... sleep on again. It's not like she's trying to disturb him.]

[He sits up after a few moments, blinking the sleep out of his eyes. And then she stares at Raine.] You're ... working out here?

[askdjhk there is that tag again. Caesar spots his sleeping brother a few times throughout the day, but as a person who loves sleep as much as he does, he understands the concept of "Do Not Disturb" better than anyone else. He allows his brother to sleep during the day, not even bothering him in the slightest. (Even if it'd be funny.)

Later in the evening, though, whenever Albert's returned to his room, Caesar will pay him a visit. As usual, he slips into the room without knocking. Is Albert even awake...? He'd expect him to be, after all the sleep he had earlier, but you never knew with these things.

Not that it really mattered. He totally loved that he could do this again. And since Caesar hadn't done much in his new room except, well, sleep, Albert's room was more interesting.]

[Fortunately for Caesar, Albert's second bout of sleeping in the day is shorter than the first. But he's still asleep when his room is intruded upon, which in itself could be considered odd; he wasn't a heavy sleeper unless he was exhausted, and that wasn't the case today.

At least he doesn't snore.]

...

[Huh. That's really strange. He'd at least figured that if he had been sleeping, he'd wake up when someone entered his room. He was usually alert like that.

Albert was only sleeping, and it wasn't as if there was an urgent need to wake him or anything, but something had to be wrong. Caesar stands there thoughtfully, considering what he should do, if anything at all.

...it also occurs to him that he'll probably get in trouble for walking in here while Albert was sleeping, but um. Oh well.]

[If Caesar continues standing by the bedside, he will be surprised by Albert stretching his arms as he abruptly awakens. He sits up, his arms going out to his sides again as he stretches them; he might have slept in an uncomfortable position or something.]

Hmn.

The first girl I ever asked out didn't say 'no'.

chikaidestroyer July 9 2010, 18:05:27 UTC

Hah. A chance that most eventually take. Congratulations that your first experience wasn't rejection.

derek_bliss July 9 2010, 23:10:54 UTC

I figured she would either say yes or punch the crap out of me. I lucked out.

chikaidestroyer July 9 2010, 23:41:23 UTC

Punch you? As opposed to a slap?

It would, if you consider it an accomplishment. Some others would take such things for granted.

chikaidestroyer July 10 2010, 09:52:59 UTC

I would imagine so. It does take awhile to develop that sort of trust.

[A long dash of the pen, then:] Do you think class superlatives count?

[written] chikaidestroyer July 9 2010, 18:51:03 UTC

Class superlatives? Such as "most beautiful" or "most successful"?

[written] slaying July 9 2010, 18:52:06 UTC

Yeah. Except, I didn't get either of those.

[written] chikaidestroyer July 9 2010, 19:07:13 UTC

Which one did you receive?
