61st Draw is a plea for news [Voice/Action for those in the clinic]

Jun 15, 2011 15:13

[Selphie's starting to get restless. Of course, she knows that Malaria is deadly unless properly taken care of so she's been obedient. She falls asleep more often than staying awake still but her fever has broken. Some of the colour from the blood loss via the shift hunter bites has returned to her skin but she's still pale from being sick. She' ( Read more... )

wants to go home, getting a bit lonely again, clinicbound, bored to tears

[After a nap, your clinicmate is sounding refreshed.]

Little stories? Most of the ones I know are longish.

[voice] boomchucka June 15 2011, 21:54:17 UTC

[She's sounding a bit more lively herself.]

But I like them.

[voice] noprevaricating June 15 2011, 21:58:42 UTC

Hm. If you don't know Katherine and Petruchio, I suppose you don't know The Rivals.

[voice] boomchucka June 15 2011, 21:59:27 UTC

Oh? Do tell.

[He launches into a summary of a fairly typical 18th-century comedy involving mistaken identity, love, and deception.]

[voice] boomchucka June 15 2011, 22:13:54 UTC

Did they seriously arrange marriages during that time? I don't really like the sound of that idea.

[voice] noprevaricating June 15 2011, 22:19:09 UTC

It depended on what class you were in. Wasn't happening as much by the end of the century. Not everyone found it miserable, it was simply a part of life.

[voice] boomchucka June 15 2011, 22:25:31 UTC

Ooooooooh. It's not like that where I come from.

Everyone marries for love or their impending parenthood? Or possibly because secret wedding vows are an easy way to lift a woman's skirts?

Re: [voice] boomchucka June 15 2011, 22:40:31 UTC

Usually love but sometimes because of a baby.

[Cheese whiz Archie, you've just made Selphie blush.] W-what?

[voice] noprevaricating June 15 2011, 22:50:21 UTC

Erp. Beg pardon.

[He's a sailor. He's an officer, but he's still a sailor. Not every officer can get away with comments like that.]

[voice] boomchucka June 15 2011, 23:18:51 UTC

Your pardon is begged?

[voice] noprevaricating June 16 2011, 00:00:11 UTC

I meant, I beg your pardon.

Re: [voice] boomchucka June 16 2011, 00:05:18 UTC

Oh! [She laughs in spite of herself.]

Pardonned!

[voice] noprevaricating June 16 2011, 00:10:15 UTC

Thank God. [A chuckle.] And here I was wondering if I'd ever make it into your good graces again. Are you feeling any better?

[voice] boomchucka June 16 2011, 00:15:06 UTC

It's not too hard to get into my good graces, Archie. A little bit. A couple of my friends are bringing games later on.
