calliope sedant, gatlin harris

Hello, world.

[Calliope] I hope I'm not being too...bold, or something. I just. Thought I should say hello. I'm a...friend of Johanna.

	You're my grandson! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Yes, I suppose I am. I wasn't sure if you'd like that title. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm two hundred and thirty-seven years old. I'm not really paranoid about being a grandmother. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Calliope gatlin_harris 2010-03-09 12:47 am UTC (link)
	Fair enough. Would you have me call you Grandmother, then? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh, Calliope will work just fine, we're not that formal. I do hope she hasn't said anything that would make you scared of me. How are you recovering? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

All right, Calliope it is.

Not at all. She's said nothing but praises of you. I am most interested in meeting you face to face.

I've been wanting this for a long time, and I did a lot of research so I sort of knew what to expect. It's the kind of thing you can't really prepare for, but I knew what I was getting myself in to. I'm doing all right. It is an adjustment, but it's not a painful one.

	I'd like that very much myself. And you have many people that will help guide you through it. You're lucky. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Definitely not something I'd want to do alone. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It tends to drive one a little mad. But Johanna's a good teacher, and I taught her myself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Calliope gatlin_harris 2010-03-09 02:13 am UTC (link)
	She is. I have no complaints, at least. She's been nothing but patient with me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Gatlin the_redlady 2010-03-09 02:30 am UTC (link)
	Good. The making of a childe isn't anything to be done in jest, or to be taken lightly. At least it shouldn't be. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Calliope gatlin_harris 2010-03-09 02:37 am UTC (link)
	No, it shouldn't be taken lightly. Kai refused to do it, for reasons I don't understand. But I did the research. I absorbed everything I could, and I feel I made an informed decision. I was terribly afraid Johanna would ridicule me, but she did not. She knew I had put a lot of thought in to the decision, for me at least, it was not done lightly. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Gatlin the_redlady 2010-03-09 03:24 am UTC (link)
	Perhaps he was afraid of how it would change your relationship. Forever's a long time to hate someone. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I respected his decision, whatever his reason. I merely found other means to get what I wanted. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Gatlin the_redlady 2010-03-10 12:45 am UTC (link)
	That's a rare quality in a person, respect. I'm glad Johanna gets to spend time with you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Calliope gatlin_harris 2010-03-10 12:50 am UTC (link)
	I enjoy spending time with Johanna. I wouldn't have chosen her to be my mother, if I didn't. She's wonderful. Beautiful, amazing on many different levels. I feel blessed, to know her at all, and doubly so that she wants to spend time with me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Gatlin the_redlady 2010-03-10 01:06 am UTC (link)
	Oh, she's very fond of you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Calliope gatlin_harris 2010-03-10 01:22 am UTC (link)
	Good thing, since we're likely to be stuck with each other for a very long time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Calliope the_redlady 2010-03-10 01:25 am UTC (link)
	I approve of this. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Calliope gatlin_harris 2010-03-10 01:31 am UTC (link)
	I'm glad to hear it. Your blessing means a lot to me, (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Gatlin the_redlady 2010-03-10 01:34 am UTC (link)
	That's funny, it's never mattered to anyone else before. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm not like everyone else. Kind of my trademark. (Reply to this) (Parent)
