Been dragging my feet for far too long on getting things moved to Elle's. Figured things would be safe today, but...

... Then I dropped my violin down a flight of stairs.

Now I just don't want to fucking go anywhere. It's not easy replacing those things.

 It's officially been two years since my very first arrival here in the City. Go me. When I first arrived here, everything turned into some kinda whack-ass Harlequin Romance sorta thing, with pirates and damsels and all that. I went back home a year later, and wound up yet again in the City after a full year's departure, though only maybe a week or ( Read more... )

Missed the alarm today. That should have been my first clue. I have this alarm clock that plays music at the time I set, off a CD, and it's usually pretty good about waking me up right on time.

( Cue Emille going very slightly quiz crazy... )

[Emille is standing in view, seemingly perfectly calm. She holds up her arm, which had been out of sight. It's drenched in blood, with trails leading from her fingertips all the way down.]

Little warning, folks. The blood won't stop flowin'. Don't go near any knives, watch your step, and try to keep to a bed for the entire day, because I don't think ( Read more... )

... I'm gonna break somethin' if my sight doesn't come back and soon.

Actually, I think I already have. Luckily, I have all the buttons on my stereo remote memorized anyway. Just... I wish I could see my damn CDs.

One advantage: music's starting to sound a lot better.
