[Friends Filter- minus Angelica. Honestly, if you think you're here, you are. If you're not sure, ask.]

I need a distr- change. Just something small. Something that maybe no one but me will ever notice, even. I'm going to paint my room and, I suppose I could just ask the Admiral to do it for me, but no. I want to do this without his interference.

I'd like it if anyone would be willing to help, though!

[Infirmary Filter]

Does anyone have any experience with pseudocyesis? [She is just stubbornly hoping she's right.]

[Private to Petronilla]

I need your help tomorrow morning. It won't take long, I promise.

[Spam for Angelica]

[Sveta had been worried for Angelica. But, unfortunately, by the time she was able to get to what Iago had said, it had already been taken down and Sveta could do nothing more than hope the aftermath wasn't as ugly as she anticipated.

...it seemed that hope had been completely dashed. So, as soon as she had a spare moment, she rushed off to find her friend, knocking at the door rather apprehensively.] Angelica. It's Sveta...

Nothing too important, just... time occupying. Don't worry about it.

After lunch it is. Provided I can find something appropriate to wear.

Re: private

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

Don't worry about it? Sure, Neil.

And if you don't show up because you don't have anything to wear...I'm going to force you to watch another stupid romance movie with me to make up for it.

...And you have to actually watch it this time.

Re: private

[kingfor-aday.livejournal.com]

Really, don't.

I better get searching, though, because I have no idea how I, a man who fixes bikes on a regular basis, has any clothes suitable for messy manual labour. It's an impossible task.

Do you think you can manage that too?

Re: private

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

I know it is. And you might have to make a few sacrifices for the paint. But...I think you can manage it.

Probably not. But I don't have to. You do.

Re: private

[kingfor-aday.livejournal.com]

I think I might be able to put the effort in. Just for you.

And how are you going to make sure I'm actually watching it?

Re: private

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

Oh good. It's appreciated.

Well, it doesn't matter now, does it? Since you're going to show up, I guess you don't really have to watch the movie now.

Re: private

[kingfor-aday.livejournal.com]

If I get lost in my cupboard looking for something... can I turn up to paint in a bear suit, do you think?

I guess not. Could we still watch it, but not watch it? Or is the whole film thing off the cards?

Re: private

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

I will hit you if you turn up in a bear suit.

We can do whatever you want, Neil.

Re: private

[kingfor-aday.livejournal.com]

There has to be some practical use to it, Sveta.

I think it's your turn to do what you want, actually. And if your choice is just painting a wall, then that's up to you, but really?

Re: private

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

There's not. I promise.

Yes. That's all I want. You just have to deal with it.

Re: private

[kingfor-aday.livejournal.com]

Then what on earth should I do with it?

I'll have to make the most of your painting session, then.

Re: private

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

I don't know. Keep it hidden?

You and everyone else who shows up.

Re: private

[kingfor-aday.livejournal.com]

A bear suit will probably fall out of my wardrobe at a strange moment now. Probably an entirely inappropriate one.

Oh, aye. Them.

Re: private

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

Probably. Especially now that you've said it.

At least until they leave.

Re: private

[kingfor-aday.livejournal.com]

I'm a fan of tempting fate like this, it seems.

Now that, I can approve of. I hope they don't want to hang around too long.

Re: private

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

I think you secretly enjoy it.

Or you could just come tonight, Neil, depending on how long I stay with Angelica.

Re: private

[kingfor-aday.livejournal.com]

I've always enjoyed having bear suits fall on top of me.

Well, if you've got time. Worry about her first. I can always wait until we've had several paint based disasters.

Re: private

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

I knew that already.

I am. I'm actually leaving now so...maybe I'll talk to you tonight. But definitely tomorrow.

Re: private

[kingfor-aday.livejournal.com]

Alright. I'll talk to you when I do.

See you tomorrow, at any rate.
