Vlad, dearest, I believe the appropriate phrase for this situation is I told you so.

	Is this really necessary? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Wait. Let me think that over. Thinking. Thinking. Still thinking. Yes. Next time, swallow your pride and be willing to listen to someone who knows more than you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	There is no need to make a public announcement. He is receiving the proper care and will be fine. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	My public announcement was vague and, hopefully, successfully shaming. That man is broken like a bird that's flown into a glass window and doesn't even know it. You can't act like he's fine. He's not. Some friendly advice from the bitch next door. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: P2/P3 nobleblood 2010-01-06 05:24 am UTC (link)
	Shaming? You If you are so concerned with his well being, perhaps you should make it your personal mission to save him, as my efforts clearly do not meet your standards. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I wouldn't deprive you of the opportunity to do a good deed. I think it might help improve your character. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	~~You have no idea what I have risked for him and that foolish girl~~ Your generosity never ceases to astound me, as does your concern for my character. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	How very lucky I am, then, to have you as a neighbor. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: P2/P3 ex_sepulchre370 2010-01-06 06:02 am UTC (link)
	I'm glad you acknowledge that fact. Are you going to take care of him when he comes home, being the good Samaritan that you are? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: P2/P3 nobleblood 2010-01-06 06:10 am UTC (link)
	~~Apparently so, since the task would otherwise be left to a child.~~ If I gave you an answer, my dear neighbor, the entire building would know it by morning. Thus, you must forgive my silence on the matter. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: P2/P3 ex_sepulchre370 2010-01-06 06:11 am UTC (link)
	Forgive it, yes. Be mindful of it, no. If you need anything, do be in contact. And don't think for a minute he's going to be a boy scout once he gets home again. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I prefer the word 'expensive.' (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: P2/P3 nobleblood 2010-01-06 07:23 pm UTC (link)
	And satisfying your expensive taste would be a sufficient show of my gratitude? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: P2/P3 ex_sepulchre370 2010-01-06 07:24 pm UTC (link)
	A sufficient beginning, assuming you can impress me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: P2/P3 nobleblood 2010-01-06 07:41 pm UTC (link)
	Assume implies uncertainty, and I can assure you that you have no reason to doubt my ability to impress. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Is that so? I must not have gotten that memo. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: P2/P3 nobleblood 2010-01-06 08:08 pm UTC (link)
	What a shame. Such a grievous oversight cannot be allowed. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: P2/P3 ex_sepulchre370 2010-01-06 08:55 pm UTC (link)
	Do you have a recommendation for remedying it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: P2/P3 nobleblood 2010-01-06 09:05 pm UTC (link)
	A first hand demonstration of what said memo claimed may be an adequate remedy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: P2/P3 ex_sepulchre370 2010-01-06 09:08 pm UTC (link)
	I'm open to suggestions, assuming you don't intend to bore me during the demonstration. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: P2/P3 nobleblood 2010-01-06 11:03 pm UTC (link)
	I assume you will be a challenge to please, but the last thing I intend to do is bore you. Well. I distinctly recall being invited to your apartment for tea one Thursday afternoon, an invitation I unfortunately was not able to accept due to certain circumstances. Perhaps we could begin there? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: P2/P3 ex_sepulchre370 2010-01-06 11:37 pm UTC (link)
	Tomorrow then. I'll make sure to wear my best to entertain such a prestigious guest, Vlad. I recommend you do the same. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[The reply comes several hours later, nearing the middle of the night]

As much as I was looking forward to our... demonstration, I am afraid I must reschedule. The good deed you so graciously chose not to deprive me of has not yet released me from its clutches.

Saturday afternoon, however, would work much better; and I assure you that I will atone for the inconvenience.
