That was a rather interesting flood; petty annoyance though it may be to have these things sprung upon us so suddenly at times, I have to say I am enjoying the opportunity to experience certain things. Though the experience was definitely amplified after trading with the Prefect. Incredible!

Of course I'm happy to be back to normal, as well.

I thought the experience left much to be desired.

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

That's a shame. Did your clever attempts to seduce your warden not pay off?

[major-west.livejournal.com]

I WASN'T TRYING TO SEDUCE HER.

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

Nobody's blaming you for anything, Sparrow. She made a good man; there are few that would have tried differently.

[major-west.livejournal.com]

Oh, stop it. How was I to know my brain would go insane from hormones and make me behave that way? I'd never have looked twice otherwise.

And why do you insist on calling me that?

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

Just the first impression that you gave me upon meeting you. So tense. I expected to hear wings fluttering everytime I spoke to you.

[major-west.livejournal.com]

Oh.

...I'm not a bird.

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

No, you're certainly not. That doesn't mean you didn't invite the comparison.

[major-west.livejournal.com]

...I really hope you're only comparing me to a literal bird and not--

Fine.

Is there something else on your mind?

You seemed more than satisfied when I departed this morning.

Private

[major-west.livejournal.com]

IT LOOKS LIKE SOMEBODY'S PUNCHED ME IN THE NECK!

[OOC: I couldn't think of any reason to be mad at the Marquis, specifically, sooo have a hickey! Or, like, five? I dunno]

Private

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

I could complain about the places where you've left bruises on me, pet, but I wouldn't want to offend you.

Private

[major-west.livejournal.com]

You said you liked teeth! Also, people can't see--

None of my clothes cover my neck! I don't own any turtlenecks! Why? Because I'm not fifteen! I shouldn't have to worry about this rubbish anymore!

[OOC: I'm so just making this up as I go along. APOLOGIES IN ADVANCE IF IT GETS TOO WEIRD]

Private

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

Calm down, dumpling. You can always just say I attacked you. Or that you got them while you were affected by the flood.

Private

[major-west.livejournal.com]

...

.......

.........Don't call me that.

And attacked? How? Attacked me with kisses?

And-- no. Then everybody would just think Morgan did it.

Private

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

So you're more amenable to "sparrow" now?

And you could always blame it on the Master. It's not as though he didn't make the rounds in his new form.

Private

[major-west.livejournal.com]

...yes. It's not that bad, I suppose and given the alternatives.

I could until he contradicts me for the fun of it.

Private

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

Or you could always just stay in your room until they go away.

Private

[major-west.livejournal.com]

That's the plan so far.

Private

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

Of course, if there's a next time you'll just have to remember to aim higher, won't you? To keep things fair.

Private

[major-west.livejournal.com]

There won't. I'm not going to throw myself at you again-- it's pathetic.

Private

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

You didn't throw yourself at me, and I would have refused you if you had.

You made an offer, I accepted.

Private

[major-west.livejournal.com]

Well...

...true.

Private

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

I don't see why you're so troubled. You obviously enjoy yourself. So do I, and I respect your wishes to not speak of such liasons with other people.

Private

[major-west.livejournal.com]

...the flood just put me in a bad mood, is all.

Private

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

Pardon moi, Henry.

Private

[major-west.livejournal.com]

Why don't you have any problems with it?

Private

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

Problems with what?

Private

[major-west.livejournal.com]

People finding out about your... proclivities.

Private

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

Why should I allow the opinions of insignificant others to get in the way of my own pleasures?

Private

[major-west.livejournal.com]

Because they'll think less of you and treat you with less respect.

Or, in my case, you lose your job and probably get your skull kicked in.

Private

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

It's worth it. Every moment has been worth it, for me.

And you have no job here, mon ami.

Private

[major-west.livejournal.com]

I--

True, but... there's...

It's not good to be out in a prison.

Private

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

Honestly, Major West, don't the worst ones already know?

Private 1/2

[major-west.livejournal.com]

I suppose, but...

[After a LONNNNNNNNNG break... this is seriously as close to coming out as he'll ever be]





...I don't... uh... You don't need to keep our meetings a secret anymore, if you don't want to.

Private

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

If you would prefer I maintain some discretion, sparrow, I will do so.

Private - SUPER LATE EDITS because I hated the post

[major-west.livejournal.com]

Well, I'm not going to make a bit fuss about anything.

I just mean... I won't threaten to kill you for saying anything anymore.
