I think that's quite enough for one day, thank you. If you want to start again, you'll have to wait.

I think she can do whatever she wants.

[tobealone]

I don't believe I asked for opinions on the matter. We're done for now, end of.

[pakkanen]

You're in a public forum, pal. Sounds like you wanted opinions.

[tobealone]

Or, God forbid, I was using it for its intended purpose and addressing one person. May I help you, St. North?

[pakkanen]

Sure. Tell me what she did.

[tobealone]

No. That's far out of the realms of your business.

[pakkanen]

Come on, it's not that private.

[tobealone]

Oh, you know so, do you?

[pakkanen]

Dude. You wouldn't even make a reference to it, if it was that serious.

[tobealone]

Leave it, Jack. It's of no importance to you, anyway; it's personal.

[pakkanen]

Importance, no. Interest, yes.

[ head-tilt!! you're general pitchiner but you're not, what's going on here. ]

[tobealone]

[ Certainly not! How curious. ] Yes?

[glimmerer]

[ you don't even understand his gestures. heart = broken.

scrabbling for his sharpie and notepad, which he scribbles on and turns so he can see it. also!! glowing insistently at!! ]

VERY DIFFERENT!!

[tobealone]

I suppose this has to do with that bloody King of Nightmares, doesn't it. Very different, indeed.

[belovedone]

Forgive me my prying, good sir, but - start what again?

[Sorry, buddy. She wandered in because you'e got the same face as her son, and now she's too curious to just walk out again.]

[tobealone]

I was referring to writing. This one makes a nasty habit of it.

[belovedone]

Find you some offense in tales and the spinning of words?

[tobealone]

Not the act itself, but the subject matter. I believe some things ought to be understood for what they are and left alone, lest they become drawn-out and ugly.

Why, exactly, do you care?

[belovedone]

I'm sorry if I have somehow angered you. [She visibly withdraws, words polite and expression earnestly composed.] I did not mean to intrude. I was only expressing passing interest.

[tobealone]

[ He sighs, clearly tired of his own anger. ] And I don't mean to be rude. I'm sure you mean no ill will.

[belovedone]

Merely curiosity -- which, to some, I know can mirror closely rudeness.

It seemed you were in need of a willing listener to speak your frustrations too. But again, my apologies if I was mistaken.
