upon landing

[amourpropre]

A dawn of a new era, you seem to believe. I have a new name, but all I see are the same tired faces and as unwieldy a method of communication as when you left, no matter what you choose to believe. You've gone and... uploaded [ these words ] your images, organised lists and terms of reference, expounded endlessly about the benefits of change--

But have you considered writing, lately?

And no, texts from last night do not count.

Well, it is kind of like moving into a new neighborhood, from what Miss Mundane says, so it might take them a little while to get used to things here. But at least all the mechanics are the same, right?

[amourpropre]

They look and feel no different to me. [ Naturally. ] But this won't be the first inexplicable distraction, nor the last. Simply the most widespread.

[wannayiffyn]

Um... I'm not really sure what you mean! Is there something you want her to be working on right now?

[amourpropre]

There are things that could use progression. I am not one for being idle.

[wannayiffyn]

Well, you're not really idle if you're talking to me right now!

[amourpropre]

This place is the epitome of procrastination, actually.

[wannayiffyn]

Oooh, I think I get it now. She must be writing something important for you! Like an application, maybe?

[she follows this with her best, dorkiest :o expression.]

[amourpropre]

One of those, and a rather awkward situation I would rather like resolved that can only be so once the mundanes begin writing.

I am exercising patience.

[ ...this is Lucius being patient. ]

[wannayiffyn]

Oooh... that does sound like something that she needs to hurry up and work on! Well, maybe this post is kind of like a warmup for the important stuff.

[amourpropre]

I suppose it is something. Which is vaguely better than nothing.

[wannayiffyn]

Heehee, it's better than my miss mun's doing so far. She doesn't even have any plans for me, besides, um... [oh why did she bring this up, she flushes pink.] ... something she and her friends are planning. But I'm pretty sure it doesn't count.
