on finishing his life's work;

[downplaying]

Supposedly a dedicated writer will never be done, describing the subtle changes of emotion to run over her features while talking.

I know I never will.

She's source material enough for ten additional volumes. Ten more volumes that will never be written, sadly.

You are in every position to change this, my dear. In case you needed the reminder.

Kindest regards,
Claude

One book is more than enough.

[downplaying]

The editing job was a nightmare.

[justcrywolf]

You didn't ask her for assistance, Claude? She's got to be a master at covering up.

[downplaying]

I'm sure she asked me to write her biography in order to avoid having to cover anything up herself.

[justcrywolf]

Well, what do I know. Bad taste, all over.

[downplaying]

To have others do their dirty work? Indeed.

[justcrywolf]

Works fucking well for making money, though.

[downplaying]

And since neither of us want to live for less, we do a lot of washing.

[justcrywolf]

Earning money has always been a sucky deal, Claude.

[downplaying]

At least we're not on our knees, sucking. Right, honey?

[justcrywolf]

Cute. How is that a good thing?

[downplaying]

You're far too old to sell yourself on the street, Vincent. They like them young. And pretty.

[justcrywolf]

Fuck, I routinely hang out with pimps. I'm sure it's in the stars somewhere.

[downplaying]

Honey, they're waiting for you to make a buy. You look like that type.

[justcrywolf]

All jokes aside, you know they'd pay. Tons.

[downplaying]

Perhaps if they were allowed a foretaste of what to expect.

[justcrywolf]

What? Why the fuck would they need a foretaste?

[downplaying]

An old, cranky queer? Sometimes I find myself in dire need of a foretaste.

[justcrywolf]

Oh, whatever. Go see a ballet or whatever the fuck you do when you're being gay.

[downplaying]

Being gay, but looking surprisingly heterosexual while doing so.

[justcrywolf]

Nice. Spare the kids like a responsible adult.

[downplaying]

I was a responsible enough adult in not producing any kids, yes?

1/2

[justcrywolf]

Shit. You know I didn't mean it like that.

[downplaying]

You're too talented at talking sometimes, dear.
