....how bad was it, Tim? Honestly?

[same filter]

[redripoff]

As far as I'm concerned? Not awful. I imagine you'll feel differently, though. Take a second. Review your log.

Re: [same filter]

[azrthmtrnznthos]

[...there's the sound of clicking, before an intake of breath.]

...damn. Yeah...I definitely feel differently Tim.

[redripoff]

Tell me why.

Re:

[azrthmtrnznthos]

...you can't guess, or you just want to hear it from me directly?

[Ok, there is a faint hint of...something in her voice there--mild irritation and mild fear.]

[redripoff]

I want to hear you verbalize it.

[azrthmtrnznthos]

.....don't want to. Rather do it in person though, if I have to. Your room free or somewhere else?

[redripoff]

Roommie's out. I'm glad to come to you if you like. It'll take longer, but that's an option.

----move to [In-Person]?

[azrthmtrnznthos]

I want to stretch my legs anyways...walk a bit, helps calm one down. Starfire's here anyways, and she's got a mess of origami I don't want us to squish.

Shouldn't take me long...ok if I just phase through so I don't wake up the others?

[in person!]

[redripoff]

Feel free. You know where to find me.

[And he cuts the berry, setting it on his desk to clear a paper mess before she arrives.]

Re: [in person!]

[azrthmtrnznthos]

[She walked most of the way, but phased through the suite's door to the common room and his door, settling fully and moving to sit on a small part of the floor that was clear. Cloaked and cowled, but at least breathing a small sigh of relief when she was out of public...mostly. Wary, but not...threatened--still a bit nervous, but mostly calm. Mostly.]

...thank you. So......yeah.

[redripoff]

[He takes a moment of silence to just watch her move, take note of her manner and listen to her voice. Standing, he crosses his arms over his chest, bowing his head.] So.

OMG Tenny I hearts you!

[azrthmtrnznthos]

[Oh god, wrong posture and pose to take with her Tim...really wrong. Put her more on her guard why don't you? Noticing the posture, She's on her feet again, standing straight up and once more calm and composed--completely walled off.]

.......if you're going to lecture me, then I'm just going to leave Tim, I don't need it. I'm hoping you're smarter than that. I'm tired, maybe even exhausted, and I can do better things than get lectured that will help.

[Like get Harry to knock her out with a spell. Or one of the healers to knock her out, hell...get Starfire to punch her hard and knock her out.]

[redripoff]

[His arms fall to his side.] Raven, I'm not--why would you think I was going to lecture you?

[azrthmtrnznthos]

You stood up emphasizing the height differential, and your posture was completely defensive with the crossed arms, and the tone, like that of a scolding father. You're supposed to know how to read body language Tim...

[There's a quiet sigh, still in control.]
