Do not quote me, readers, but I believe the trouble with these rooms goes away if another person is in the room with you. I stayed with a newfound friend the night before and the two of us were blessedly unbothered.

So drop what you are doing. Move out of the public areas. Find someone to sleep with -- you might get a little something more out of the deal.

I've already got someone.

[major-west.livejournal.com]

Well, that explains why I haven't been troubled by this flood.

Who's your new friend?

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

I was wondering.

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

Yes yes, you're positively euphoric and sickening. I know.

Monsieur Pavi and I have been getting to know one another.

[thatlibbychick.livejournal.com]

And what exactly do you mean by that?

WOW he put that delicately. Don't make him elaborate.

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

Not to be too blunt, Madame, but if anyone on this ship besides me could use someone, it is probably you.

[major-west.livejournal.com]

And you haven't seen how sickening I can be.

The fellow with the odd face? I see.

SHE'S MAKING HIM ELABORATE

[thatlibbychick.livejournal.com]

I was in mourning. I always will be, if only a little. And I don't need to be dating someone to validate myself.

In an odd moment of sweetness from him.

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

I can imagine. But then I'm sure there are sides of you that you've shown me that you would not show to your current paramour. Whatever feeds the spirit, sparrow.

And there is nothing wrong with his face.

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

Which is why you are with someone now?

[thatlibbychick.livejournal.com]

I'm with him because I unexpectedly fell for him. I wasn't looking for a relationship.

Is that a crime?

And West liiiies (because he still hasn't told him about his big crime)

[major-west.livejournal.com]

...

I tell him everything.

And I wouldn't know. But the mask, that is odd.

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

Of course you do, dearheart.

Everyone has something of interest about them. I could name a few that you sport right now.

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

Certainly not. However, my point still stands.

[thatlibbychick.livejournal.com]

We haven't slept together.

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

Well why the Hell not?

[thatlibbychick.livejournal.com]

We're taking things slow.

[major-west.livejournal.com]

That is... not exactly relevant to the conversation.

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

If the water is good, Madame, you jump in.

[thatlibbychick.livejournal.com]

He's rather traditional, and I'm in a delicate place. This way works best for the both of us.

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

Traditional in what sense? Do you expect to get married in a church, here?

[thatlibbychick.livejournal.com]

In the sense that he'd rather get to know someone before jumping in the sack with them.

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

Have the two of you only just met today?

[thatlibbychick.livejournal.com]

No, of course not.

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

And do you not speak when you are in the presence of one another?
