My apologies for the...lurid...nature of my last communication. I was unable to see and made a private communication public

Comments

[private, audio] so i can wake up to something to tag at work

[dovehearted]

Everything's... it's gotten sorted out, right? You're all right again?

When did you want to see me? Same time as always?

[private, audio]

[feels_no_love]

Yes. I-I suppose you should bring the knife but tonight the talking is more important.

I am all right again, in large part thanks to you. My pride is in ribbons, but that will grow back.

Re: [private, audio]

[dovehearted]

Then I'll see you soon, all right? [Everything needs to say unsaid until she can say it face to face.]

[private, audio]

[feels_no_love]

Of course.

[Much later Spam]
[Dracula stood at the railing near the stairs, apprehensive and tense and not really understanding why. Except of course the way his emotions had flared up to distracting levels when Lua had offered him a bite. That must be addressed, and...he wasn't strong enough to put her off entirely. He simply knew that.]

[impure_tale]

I am unoffended, I assure you.

[feels_no_love]

I appreciate that, Marquis. I may be a dramatic old beast, but I generally don't bleed and flail for the camera. [Except that time. And that other time.]

[flashy_magic]

Are you okay now?

[feels_no_love]

I've healed up fairly well, Drake, though my dignity will take longer. How are you?

[flashy_magic]

I don't think there's a reason for your dignity to be hurt. I thought you handled it well. And I'm fine.

[feels_no_love]

I appreciate that. It is only through my living friends that I receive a proper mirror for my behavior. You have a command of emotions and how they work in society. I am...learning.

[young_idealist]

I'd like to talk, if you don't mind.

I meant to speak to you earlier.

[private]

[feels_no_love]

Of course. I have just tidied up and put a log on the hearth if you'd like to drop by, or I could come there.

[private]

[young_idealist]

I could come there. I must ask... I don't feel entirely comfortable in the hallways unarmed at the moment. I know I am about as likely to shoot as I am to faint from indecision, but I would like to carry my gun.

I ask if it would offend you in your cabin.

[private]

[feels_no_love]

No longer. I have passed the point of being sensitive about anything that keeps you safer.

And you were a good shot against those lizard-things. By all means, bring it over with you.
