Hello, everyone, and long time no...um...see?

ginamak  is a harsh mistress (betas can be SO demanding), so while she was procrastinating on editing the short 20-pager I dropped in her lap this week, we got to discussing this picture. Which, in turn, led to a discussion of how Elias might react to the idea of a goatee. Which led to me jotting my thoughts ( Read more... )

PROCRASTINATING. *nods*

Thank you for the little nudge to write this!

*oof* Thank you! ;)

I like to think Ruby suitably rewards Elias for growing a goatee. *g*

"He told me to grow a goatee.” Elias’s tone was reminiscent of a toddlers as he dexterously sliced vegetables for their supper.

Complete with giant puppy-dog eyes.

She was thankful he couldn’t see her at that moment-or the smile she was desperately trying to hide.

Has she ever been asked to dye her hair or chop it off or anything?

“A goatee. And that doesn’t even get into the ridiculous idea to skip a visit to the barber.”

It's not like they're asking you to show up dressed like a member of the cast of Hair, McCoy.

“Growing a beard.” Elias muttered the words, disapproval oozing from him.

Disapproval over the beard, or because he knows Peter doesn't at all mind having one? XD

“Yes!” At her glance, he amended, “Well, no. But Ruby! A goatee! I’d look like a two-bit actor down by the Rose!”

If it's anything like The Virgin Queen, um, yeah.

...“An evil Elias.” She couldn’t help but laugh then, her hands once more placed on his chest.

I doubt if he knew what Star Trek was it would make him feel any better.

“And you certainly ( ... )

Indeed. But his sulk in this is EPIC.

She's been asked to dye it, I'm sure. And I think she has done, a time or two--much to Elias's horror.

Disapproval over the beard, or because he knows Peter doesn't at all mind having one? XD

...Yes. ;)

I doubt if he knew what Star Trek was it would make him feel any better.

Alas, I don't know that Elias would appreciate that joke. At least, not at first. Ruby, I'm sure, could find a way to make him see the humor (or advantage) in it.

Oh, now you have to tell us!

She was going to request a holiday, most likely someplace warm...

Thanks for this bit of fun!

You're quite welcome!

Thank you. I've missed them.

LOL. But the thing you seem to have glossed over is this part:

...editing the short 20-pager...

*chin on backs of fingers* Do tell. *bats eyelashes for good measure*

I didn't gloss over *anything*--I simply stated a fact!

I won't say anything beyond that the story will go up Monday. Oh, and that it has Elias. :)
