I'm not that great at telling stories.

You give up too easy.

It's not that--! My memory on the rest of the story is a little hazy.

2ndunitcaptain June 8 2009, 03:42:58 UTC

[goes to draw up a chair for his guest] I'm a little frustrated--I know it's gotta be somewhere in my mind.

[pours the tea into a cup] Hope you like oolong.

Hey, hey, don't force it or you'll never remember.

[He sits and smirks, shrugging his shoulders and setting the bottle at his feet.] It's fine by me.

action bodybreakdown June 8 2009, 04:50:58 UTC

I--You're right. [sits too, but his eyes catch that little something.] What's that you've got there?

action 2ndunitcaptain June 8 2009, 04:53:08 UTC

[He takes the cup and sips it, grinning in approval.] Not bad at all.
