[impure_tale]

I suppose one last shout into the ether would not go amiss.

Come speak to me, my darlings. The universe is lonely without you in it.

Comments

[umgekehrt]

And why would it be the last?

[impure_tale]

I thought I would hear from you, at least.

Tell me, persimmon: Does the gonebeyond have very good wine?

[umgekehrt]

Not very. More grain than grape out here; some very decent wodac via the malcontent but wine's less common.

[impure_tale]

That sounds dreadful.

[umgekehrt]

[A rough chuckle.] And I'm happy to see you too, Donatien.

[impure_tale]

[ not to be deterred ]

Next you'll be telling me there's no chocolate there.

[umgekehrt]

Very little, you've got that right. What's the questioning about?

[impure_tale]

[ dramatic, pained gasping ]

And then no dancing or sex next, I suppose.

[umgekehrt]

Now it's not as bad as that-! It's mostly settled by the Nurail, after all.

[impure_tale]

Something will have to be done, either way.

[umgekehrt]

[Hmm.]

By who, were you thinking?

[impure_tale]

The Admiral, firstly.

[umgekehrt]

Never tell me there's someone so hard up for something to do with their deal-! I don't recall the Admiral being otherwise charitable.

[impure_tale]

Other than harry comely working men, one must have some means to distract themselves.

[tentacruelest]

I prefer not to be referred to as darling, thank yeh very much.

I'm sorry about the icons. His account ran out and 5 of his 15 are flood icons -_-

[impure_tale]

Would you prefer "cuttlefish"?

haha I'm in the same boat, no worries

[tentacruelest]

Considering I've been human for some time, it'd be a more inaccurate nickname than most.

[impure_tale]

Then no one else would think to call you that, and it therefore remains special.

[tentacruelest]

It's special, is it? Some would consider it annoying. An insult.

[impure_tale]

Only used with fondness.

[tentacruelest]

Fondness, eh?

How is it I've no such fond nickname for you?

[impure_tale]

That's not up to me, mon ami. If you should like to give me one, I will not object.

I may accuse you of flirting with me, but that's not objecting.

[tentacruelest]

I ain't flirting with you, Marquis. I'm long past me prime in that area.

[impure_tale]

You know I wouldn't tease you so if you didn't make it so easy.

[tentacruelest]

I'm glad you're finding amusement in all this madness. There's none around that feel brave enough to tease me to me face.
