*while maybe lacking the fierce doggedness of a werewolf on the trail, let it be said that a vampire who is looking for someone will most likely find them. currently, one coffee-loving vampire is out searching for one fellow Borogravian soldier*

*pauses in his unbuttoning, a smirk as he watches her watching him*

I'll be just fine, don't you worry.

*is suddenly glaring at his shoes instead*

I wasn't aware overheating was part of the problem.

[bad-addict.livejournal.com]

Hot weather disagrees with me, what can I say. Wouldn't want to have that become a problem, hm?

*finishes unbuttoning his collar and leans back against the stump, closing his eyes, as if he's about the take a nap*

In the meanwhile, though, avoiding the crowds seems to be the best way to keep things cool.

*taking in everything about Mal's affected little posture, putting two and two together to make five and leaning in for a closer look*

[bad-addict.livejournal.com]

*not moving except to smile*

I'm all for staying out of trouble on this one.

*and five and five makes 50 today*

*an eye pops open to look at Oz*

I'm not sure what I think of camp's onion-y nature today.

.....



Were you waiting for a chance like this?

[bad-addict.livejournal.com]

...er.

Hard to say, really!

[allofherperks.livejournal.com]

*her mouth's twitching- something between a tick and a smile*

I can see that.

[bad-addict.livejournal.com]

I mean, it's one of those things where you don't want to be suddenly springing things out of the blue, you know? But at the same time, you don't want to make things too... weighted. So you just have to wait for it and wait for it, but waiting for it changes what those right circumstances are, and then it just all gets very hard to judge after a while.

[allofherperks.livejournal.com]

*so you were nervous*

Well, I don't see what the perfect circumstance would have been anyway.

[bad-addict.livejournal.com]

*...that is totally not what I said.*

That's the art of it, though!

[allofherperks.livejournal.com]

*oh yes it is*

Yes, the rest of us certainly were silly to give up so quickly.

[bad-addict.livejournal.com]

The rest of you had no idea that Jackrum was that close.

[allofherperks.livejournal.com]

And you didn't tell us.

[bad-addict.livejournal.com]

By the time the little confession circle got round to me, it would have been a rather large lapse in discretion for me to be making warnings about officers.

[allofherperks.livejournal.com]

*I hate you. I like you. no, I hate you*

I suppose.

And it's not as if I spent that much time wondering.

[bad-addict.livejournal.com]

*opens her mouth to respond to that-*



*...then closes it again, looking slightly conflicted.*

...er. Oh.

[allofherperks.livejournal.com]

And I suppose you thought it was better if I reached my own conclusion about what to do here.

[bad-addict.livejournal.com]

Would you rather that I'd packaged it in with the warnings about the tentacle monster and the Tuesday soup?

[allofherperks.livejournal.com]

Er-

[bad-addict.livejournal.com]

So what conclusions have you reached?

[allofherperks.livejournal.com]

...might just leave the collar unbuttoned from now on.

[bad-addict.livejournal.com]

*arches an eyebrow*

Really, now.
