009 - Key Lime

[deadly_ned]

I am only just now realizing that a dark and terrible storm is lurking over the horizon and that I may or may not have the resources necessary to prepare myself to face it.


And since I have one, and only one skill to offer in exchange..


Pies for any sort of sword-fighting or survivalist training for me and my inmate.


Please.


We're not fighters. At least, I'm not a fighter...much. I don't like to put words in the mouths of other people. I like to put pie there instead.

Or...room-cleaning, or I know Morse Code but I'm not sure how handy that will come in, but it's sort of a nifty little party trick when you're bored and have nothing better to do, but that might take a substantially larger amount of time than a simple comfort food hand-off.

Digby has been re-homed. My room is officially dog-free. So you can...come, and go as you please.

If it pleases.

Also I may or may not have volunteered us both to go to a card game. Do you play cards? I can do a, um. A crash course.

I'm glad I didn't die too. I actively...try not to die several times a day.



It's. Exhausting.

[ichoosefight]

Yeah, I know the feeling.

[deadly_ned]

People try to kill you for reasons you don't even understand half the time.

[ichoosefight]

I don't understand most of the reasons people try to kill each other. I mean, I do on an academic level, but I just don't get it. You know?

[deadly_ned]

Love tends to be a very large motivator, I've found.

[ichoosefight]

So do hate and psychopathy.

[deadly_ned]

You don't understand hate?

[ichoosefight]

No, that one I get. Hating someone so much you don't just want them to die, you want to be the one to do it? That I know. Actually doing it is something different though.

[deadly_ned]

What about hating someone so much that you just want to die? Or maybe I...internalize things too much.

[ichoosefight]

[ She blinks at him for a moment, startled, then frowns. ]

Yeah, no, never had that one.

[deadly_ned]

...Ah.


Well.


I'll just.

Never mind, then.
