One day we should just get together and let our little hamster brains run wild. It'll be fun!

Right! But then usually we're on their side. If we weren't.. I wouldn't want them for enemies. I'd deter others from trying. She chuckled.

If she did say the joke to Echo, she wouldn't credit you. Because if he was mad, it really should be at her. And, as you pointed out, you didn't have all the facts when you said it.

She looked up at you. She gave you a small smile. No I know I have to deal with it at some time. I also know right now I need to put it in the buffer. It's all a little too fresh still.

She nods. Yeah I should go to bed. Uhm.. take the noodles. You can bring Briar some dinner. If you want to stop by Mama YumYums I can order up another bowl for her if she doesn't like beef. I mean... I said something rude. Least I can do is buy her dinner. And you don't tell her what I said... or that I said it.

She rubbed a hand over her eye. It was nice to meet you Perry.

"Truth isn't necessarily tactless. But there are ways to say things that are true without sounding like you're firing across the demilitarized zone."

And then registering what she said at the end, " 'bit the apple'? really? Tha's what ya gon' use when they put me in the dirt?" that Texas drawl was slipping out.

Leaving

let me know if I can help. I relinquished an account I was holding for beware to Suz 4 years ago and I am willing to budget to keep those rooms up even if I can’t play here anymore.

City Aquarium and Zoo
Don't you think that's sad. That truth is considered tactless?

...she shrugged her shoulders...

I'd tell people you were an amazingly good man who had so many skills so many would never have gotten a chance to see and that you always knew just how to touch someone to make them feel good.

...she grinned up at you...

Or maybe I'd just say. Listen he bit the apple what do you want me to tell you. He was only human.

City Aquarium and Zoo
He laughed hard enough that he almost dropped what was left of the custard. "Oh, well, I don't think most people are...tactless enough for that much truth. And it'd never make it into an article or or air time if someone ~DID~ say it."

* the crimson sorta glows over her creamy cheeks... she lightly bites her lower lips as she let's her palms fall to her thighs ... her eyes still locked to His ..she whispers almost breathless

Thank You My Master

City Aquarium and Zoo
hmmmm

...she smiled at you and nodded...

That is incredibly sweet Luke

...her eyes shine at you a bit and she takes a breath....

hmmm Everyone always says nice things. I sorta want someone to say. She was a wierdo who didn't like many people and didn't want to be touched.

* she geld the cup up to Him ...as her heart seemed to pound within her ears ...she waited silently as she k elt close to Him *so close*

Well done my sexy one ~S~

The chair in place, her foot extricated from the snare of her excessive bag, smiled what-can-you-do looks given to everyone who stares at her, she then turns in time for you to come to the rescue.

You're talking and she's grinning because you clearly don't remember her and maybe she can just pass on by like this never happened. Maybe you'll forget her again, it happens.

But then you hold up and she has no choice but to laugh and cop to it. "Leo's sober but clumsy friend."

We're standing, everyone else is sitting, she inclines her head toward the chair she didn't knock over, in case you want to have it so the spotlight might shift away as people are still gawking a little. Her hand settles her chair, like maybe it's at risk of falling again on its own and she had nothing to do with its last toppling incident. "I met you at Holly's birthday party. Then there was... I'm the shoe girl? From the cocktail party?"

"Ah, diving into the deep end are we?" He pauses for just a moment and puts on the look he gets at the altar "She had a beautiful soul, no matter her own struggles she was giving with her time and money to do things for others. And she was the best friend a new person to the area could ask for, and I'll miss her every minute from here to when I see her again."

City Aquarium and Zoo
...she nods as you say that and she takes another bite of the peanut butter one you were holding, sort of ignoring that chocolate now...she looks up to you and in that way that only Polly can randomly pop a question out of nowhere...

If I got murdered what would you tell the documentary people about me?

Yeah she's terrible at that too. She has many problems, rotating through her head.

See, you get it. It's nice that I'm with someone that gets it. All of our friends are so freaking deadly. I feel like a sheep who just got chummy with the wolves, yanno. She shook her head a little, because her friends weren't a danger to her or her own, but you knew what she meant.

No, it was GREATLY funny!! Just... not right now. Right now it was way too fresh.

Afterwards she leaned against the van, shaking her head. You didn't know. She reaffirmed with you. She looks up at you. She shook her head a little. I gambled. I ... I had turn her heart off. I had to do manual compressions. I could feel her ri..... She closed her eyes flinching at the memory. Okay. Nope. If I think on that I'll spiral. I know I will.

She looked at you apologetically. I'm sorry for the... like emotional whiplash. I went from gleeful to horrified way too fast. Like... I have a headache it changed so fast.

She waved a hand pushed herself up. I'm fine. Just.. a lot going on. There's a war I'm trying to help people with. All this with Echo. I'm gonna have to put a head in a jar it's just... a lot. I think I need to spend a good 16 hours on sleep, then a few more hours in a therapy module.

I'm so sorry Perry. I wish we had lighter hearted things to talk about and... that I hadn't shown you my worse traits right off the bat. She said, she looked pale still and rather upset.

He sets his phone down in front of him. Face up. He looks down at it, causing the facial recognition to open the phone up. No notifications.

He clicks it off. He looks down at the phone again. The facial recognition opens the phone up. No notifications. He clicks it off.

He looks down—BANG!

A chair or a symbol crash or maybe a gunshot goes off, he swivels his head to catch you caught in that bear-trap you call a purse. He looks to the bartender, raising his finger and pointing to the spot on the mahogany bar-top in front of him where a drink should be.

'Whiskey.' He mouths.

'Rocks.' He mouths.

And then he turns back to face you, already moving to pick the chair up by it's high-back, which now lays flat on the floor.

"Do you need any help? It's a bit early to be absolutely knock-your-shit-everywhere wasted, feelme? I think maybe you should switch to wa—

Hol'up. Don't I know you?"

City Aquarium and Zoo
"if that's what you want to do, sure."
He continued to nibble on the custard.

"we should probably finish these before we get in line though."

He didn't mention how it was likely to be a bit dusty and they might kick up some dirt.
