I believe, miss writer, that if one wants to send someone to a new home, one needs to actually ...

Ah, write the accursed application.

Oh, goodness me, of course I know you have been so utterly swamped and all that. Shorter work hours, a near empty inbox, summer weather with all this blasted sun and heat. However do you manage? Truly an inspiration.

And it isn't as though I'm waiting with any sense of urgency or excitement, of course not. I am merely pointing out one of the many ways you contradict yourself in this pointless hobby of yours.

Just reminding you. That is all.

Leisure time does beckon, when there is work to be done. I have oft delayed my writing for a book, or a refreshing walk around my grounds.

[shorthanded]

I am afraid you may be wasting your breath on such matters. These people often seem quite impervious to logic.

[bornofthis]

If she is no longer keen to write such a thing...perhaps you are losing favor. Do not worry, it happens to the best of us.

[ophis]

Such is the incurable disease of those ailed with chronic procrastination. What a pity it is.

[declares]

There is virtue in leisure, as there is virtue in action.

[ophis]

[ Headtilt ... ] Ah, they did tell me there'd be days like this.

Though while I do see the uselessness of voicing my opinion to those unwilling to bend to reason, it is mine own right to say what I feel I must.

[ophis]

I doubt I am losing favour, when she is the one awake until the wee hours of the morning with me.

[ophis]

Mere impatience. She makes promises, she does not deliver. What little faith I had in her has more than waned as of late.

[shorthanded]

As much as I am all for the freedom to voice one's own opinions, it can be rather... well, I don't want to say 'dangerous.' But it may not always have quite the desired outcome.

[bornofthis]

And yet, she's not written your application? Meanwhile, in the time since she made her intent known... mine has not only been written, processed and accepted... but I have already begun interacting with the residents.

Are you absolutely certain of your destination?

/chinhands at all your icons omg ♥

[slaegr]

[ Have a cool smirk. ]

You're quite certain it isn't urgency and excitement that propels you? I see little point in drawing her attention to it otherwise.

[ophis]

Indeed, a warning I've heard several times over ever since the beginning. One almost grows tired of it.

[ophis]

Oh, she's started it alright. But there has been little progress. I fear she has too much fun elsewhere, that she forgets her priorities.

aww, why thank you :3

[ophis]

[ Ah, his counterpart, how nice to meet you ♥ ]

I think you, of all people, should know how much fun it is to point out the failings of others.

[shorthanded]

I meant no offense, and it is not a warning I give lightly. These... people hold a terrifying power over us.

[bornofthis]

Ah, temptation. Who am I to prevent her from...giving in to it?

/tips hat c:

[slaegr]

Naturally, although I would not wish my revelation of truths to be used to my detriment. A little subtlety may benefit you.

[ophis]

Terrifying? Surely you are not so afraid of them.

[ophis]

Attempting to stir her away?

;3; ♥ /curtsy

[ophis]

And herein lies the difference between us otherwise similar souls, my friend. You like your shadows and your subtlety, I prefer to stand in the metaphorical spotlight, point, and laugh.

/places in pocket and keeps o3o;;;

[slaegr]

As you like. I would not doubt that you are well prepared for a stunning amount of attention.

[ Enjoy it before it makes you as jaded and bitter as an old man, other self. ]

We were, after all, made to be seen.

/paws for cookie crumbs ouo/;;

[ophis]

Stunning? [ To that, he can only laugh. ] My friend, you assume too much from someone who can only spend half a day out in public.

[shorthanded]

You do not fear something which at any moment can gain complete and utter control of your very being?

[bornofthis]

Hardly. It is simply... in my nature to encourage such...temptations.

[ophis]

They can send us to our deaths, have our hearts broken, tear us limb from bloody limb should they so choose, yes. But we have the advantage, my friend. All we need to do in revenge is disappear.
