It was not usual for Orsino to just show up at other people's homes unannounced or otherwise unexpected. Given that Donaghan had done the very same to him only last week made him feel even more strangely about it than usual. The fact remained, however, that he'd been dreadfully bored this Saturday. He'd brought Seven out with him on an errand or two, including to pick up lunch, but when he'd gotten back to his flat he was still feeling antsy and restless. Maybe he was beginning to feel the fact that they hadn't toured in a while. In any case, and though it didn't happen often, Orsino didn't feel like holing up in his flat for the rest of the day with one of his projects.

The idea of maybe going over to Penny's and seeing what she was up to occurred to him. It seemed unlikely that she was as bored as he was, as she always seemed to be doing something. Before he had time to change his mind and think that it was probably rather rude and not very like him anyway, he'd apparated to the proper spot and walked the short distance to the front door. Rolling his eyes at how stupid this was, he reached forward and knocked twice.

"Unless," Orsino opined, chewing at a thumbnail. "Maybe they're hoping you'd be a girl, and of a certain inclination to-"

He'd only been joking, but stopped himself on the realization that it could very well be insulting. Although he had to imagine that some of the people who wanted wards done in their bedrooms were hoping for something else entirely to come of the process.

"I'm only joking, of course," he said quickly. "Er. I'm sure you both have a difficult times dealing with all of the unexpected...naked people."

This was not a case of secondhand embarrassment. Orsino was running his mouth off and embarrassing no one but himself. Jerkily, he reached for a second frog.

	"Penny, love. I think my brother probably has a magazine with a story in it that starts in that exact way." Leigh said sort of taking Orsino's suggestion and running with it. Properness be damned. "Doesn't make it any less traumatic." She said with a shudder. Hey, at least objectively her bosses were attractive. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Ew! Ew!," her disgust was loud and punctuated by the waving of her hands about. "Don't say things like that. I don't want to have to wonder if everytime I'm sent out on a job, I' going to deal with Mr Dangling and Grabby Hands."

And why was she talking about this? Why had she brought it up?

"Out of curiousity, what exactly do you two think I do in my line of work? I go to service and strengthen the wards ; not the clients."

	"I just had no idea that being a wardsmith was such a, ah, potentially awkward job." He all but at the second frog whole. "This is very enlightening." Orsino said this with an air of actual surprise as he stretched his arms behind his head and closed his eyes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Exactly." Leigh said continuing to giggle a bit. "What he said." She looked over at her friend and offered a bit of an apologetic smile. "I had no idea you were spending your days grossed out by clothless blokes." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Yes. Naked middle aged men are fast becoming a boggart." Reaching behind her she fished out a cushion and sent it soaring towards the prone figure of Orsino. Leigh earned a glare. "I hate you both," she groused in jest. (Reply to this) (Parent)
