What escapes my understanding is your inability to write a short note announcing my inevitable fate. You've been preparing for this since the month before last.

Have you truly made up your mind or are you merely convincing yourself that you have?

I'm so sorry for this.

[dialtonefromhell]

I bet horns aren't all you blow.

omg i was waiting for someone to point it out

[hornblower]

I beg your pardon?

[bedsidemanners]

[oh-so-reluctantly]

You'll be missed if you go.

[hornblower]

[ she's just amused. ]

I didn't think you'd be the type to miss lectures on morality and decency.

[bedsidemanners]

I meant the Messiah.

[no.]

[no you didn't.]

[hornblower]

He's always had Lucifer by his side. He's never alone.

[ besides, she's not sara. ]

[bedsidemanners]

And it's hard to imagine more nauseating company.

[hornblower]

Is that an offer to remedy that then?

[bedsidemanners]

His company? Never. Yours, well. I suppose.

[hornblower]

How strange that you would even suppose.

[bedsidemanners]

What's so strange about that? I'm not entirely against seeing you.

[hornblower]

And yet we'll most likely spend the entire time arguing. Seeing is not the same as keeping company.

[bedsidemanners]

Then let's save ourselves the trouble, and start right now with arguing semantics and degenerate from there. Cut and dry.

[hornblower]

Where would you like for me to start then? The differences in our opinion and definition of keeping company? Or would you rather that you start to quicken the discussion?

[bedsidemanners]

I have no doubt in your ability to best me regardless.

[hornblower]

You give yourself too little credit. [ if she could pat his head, she would. ]

Keep Michael out of trouble and help him improve his memory at least. It would be refreshing to be recognized without having to reintroduce myself repeatedly.

[bedsidemanners]

You know he doesn't have a head for women.

[hornblower]

It's worth a try anyway.

[bedsidemanners]

I think flashcards would be a little too insulting.

[hornblower]

You seem to have a good head for remembering the faces and names of quite a number of girls. I'm certain you'll find something.

It may even keep you entertained.

[bedsidemanners]

I'm actually better with recalling their measurements than anything else. But nothing entertains me more than being scolded for my vices.

[hornblower]

[ god.

she doesn't even know what else to say to you. she'll have to record herself next time and just send the recording over. ]

You'll have to find someone else to do it this time.

[bedsidemanners]

I'll do my best.

Try to take care of yourself, Gabriel.

[hornblower]

One can almost hear the implications that I don't try.

But I must ask the same from you, Raphael. Keep yourself safe and well.
