In case anyone has ever wondered, homocidal owls do not get any nicer if you try the tactic of talking to them nicely, rather than calling them bloody featherbrained clods and throwing things at them.

I barely have the market cornered on homocidal creatures these days, but it was a statement I felt like making stand.

I also severely do not feel

You don't feel like complaining?

Are you feeling all right?

[bootme]

Fine. The dementa pralox and malaria went away mid morning and the blood loss from the owl bites was fleeting. I'm just beginning to consider myself a parody of myself.

[fletchfinchley]

Pralox?? At this point I'm not even going to bother attempting to correct your Latin anymore.

So what were you trying to catch your owl for?

[bootme]

Whatever.

And I was feeling masochistic and the exploding bottle of needles didn't quite cover it for me today. Usually my finds are better than that.

[fletchfinchley]

Just up for a session of biting then?

There wasn't anything you wanted to send with the owl?

[bootme]

I have two cantankerous creatures in my day-to-day life these days, and I feel bad if I don't give both of them a fair shot at removing chunks of my flesh or what-have-you, you know. I can't play favourites here.

[fletchfinchley]

Moody bites you??

[bootme]

That one was metaphorical.

[fletchfinchley]

Good. Otherwise I might be jealous.

Are you sure there wasn't any specific reason you'd be catching Strix?

[bootme]

The fact that you're asking shows that he's a worse owl than I thought.

I should trade that thing in towards a guinea pig.

[fletchfinchley]

Have you any idea what time it is?

[bootme]

Vaguely.

Jesus, just keep an eye out for the thing, and when he shows up smack him for me, all right?

[fletchfinchley]

I'd give him a bloody kiss if I didn't think he'd bite my lip off.

You had me a bit worried there, I have to admit.

[bootme]

Is there anything in the world I can actually say right now?

[fletchfinchley]

As long as the letter you've sent me says 'happy birthday' somwhere in it that's all that matters. For now.

Though I suppose you could say 'good luck' as I've got my apparition exam today.

[bootme]

If nothing else, you can never reach the abysmal depths reached by my family as a whole, I suppose.
