Whomever tied my shoelaces into a knot this morning, it was not appreciated. Kindly do not enter my room without permission again.

[Pen taps]

Rogue, are you about?

[Slight pause]

Is everyone else [very small pause] alright?

Okay on this end. Something up?

[burntorangesky]

Not really, I merely felt like checking.

[live_ringer]

Ah. I suppose that's understandable.

Oh, remind me tomorrow at work that I have something to show you.

[burntorangesky]

Have you a gift for me, Gene? Or did you just find something that is too large, heavy, or awkward for one person to lift by themselves?

[live_ringer]

I don't know that I'd call it a gift, per se, but it certainly wouldn't count as heavy lifting, either.

I guess it counts as somewhere between a surprise and a favour.

[burntorangesky]

I do like surprises, and I am always willing to do my friends a favour.

Depending on what the favour turns out to be, of course.

[live_ringer]

I don't think you'll much mind this favour. And if you do, well, there's always the option of turning it down.

[burntorangesky]

I look forward to finding out what said favour entails.
