Musings

[Left on the cab ride home from the party after the effects of her costume have worn off]
[on Rian's machine]

[Silence and then giggling] Is this ooooooon? [More giggling.] I went to a party. There was a man with a crossbow, and he didn't like vam-van vank- [. . .] people with fangs. [Even more giggling] I don't think they sparkled though, pretty, pretty sparkles.

I like rum.

Not sure when you get up for work, sorry if I woke you.

[Public]

My little superhero in blue, come out and play. We need to talk, you and me.

[Phone Call to M. Main]
Ring, Ring.

Missed you at the party. Or at least I think I missed you. One would think I'd be able to tell one of my dearest friends apart from strangers.

Last night was the strangest of my life. D:

Ring,Ring.

I'm trying hard not to think about why you insist on a two step process in basic communication. It's fortunate I'm a curious man.

I was wondering if your offer of help was still good?
