Angel fell asleep on one of the couches by the fire last night - they're fairly comfortable, and thanks to all the stress he'd had before he got to the bar, putting up with the background noise wasn't that much of a problem ( Read more... )

There's a rustling in the plants. After a moment, Mark stands up, face black-and-blue, staring oddly at Angel. "Angel?"

the_antiangst February 15 2007, 19:21:14 UTC

"...Sheesh, does everyone here know who I am already?"
He doesn't sound entirely surprised, though. It's probably just his usual networking.

bohemian_mark February 15 2007, 19:22:31 UTC

"Um. Probably. You'd be surprised... oh, what am I saying. You wouldn't be surprised. You know yourself...." He trails off and facepalms, still flailing. "I'm not making any sense at all, am I?"

the_antiangst February 15 2007, 19:27:31 UTC

"No, I got it. What happened to your nose?"

bohemian_mark February 15 2007, 19:29:30 UTC

"Um. It's a long story. Uh." He facepalms, then winces. "Let's just say that pent-up emtion came out the wrong way."

the_antiangst February 15 2007, 19:34:08 UTC

"No kidding." And Angel's going to let it drop there. He's got much more interesting things to puzzle out - namely, how exactly this guy knows him.
"You can sit down if you want, you know."

bohemian_mark February 15 2007, 19:37:06 UTC

"Oh, er, yeah. I probably should." Mark grabs his bag and camera from their perch in and behind the plant respectively, brushes a bit of dirt off of the bottom of his camera, and plunks on the sofa, slightly red in the face. "Oh, er, I probably should introduce myself, since, uh, you don't know who I am yet." He sighs. "I'm Mark." Beat. "Mark Cohen. Not that it would really mean anything to you yet, but uh, yeah."

the_antiangst February 15 2007, 19:40:33 UTC

"Nice to meet you, in any case." And now, something approaching a smile. "You are kinda cute - maybe I should keep an eye out when I get home."
Angel knows that's about as practical as trying to find April, in terms of paradox-inducing fun, but still.

bohemian_mark February 15 2007, 19:50:50 UTC

Uh. Mark blinks, and turns a bit redder. "Um." He flails for a bit, never really coming up with anything.

the_antiangst February 15 2007, 19:56:51 UTC

And that? That gets a genuine smile. There may even be stifled giggling.
"Is that a yes or a no? Not that I actually can anyway, but still."

bohemian_mark February 15 2007, 20:04:32 UTC

"Er. Definitely a yes. But, er, I have a feeling it'll be a while before you run into me." Pause. "When is it for you anyway?"

the_antiangst February 15 2007, 20:05:44 UTC

That does seem to be a popular question around here.
"1992. February."

bohemian_mark February 15 2007, 20:07:55 UTC

"Oh. Well, it'll be a bit then." Mark shrugs, and brushes some dirt off of his pants. "So, uh. yeah." Mmm. awkward.

the_antiangst February 15 2007, 20:10:13 UTC

"If I survive college, anyway. But the likelihood of me dropping out's gone up quite a bit, I think."

bohemian_mark February 15 2007, 20:11:38 UTC

Mark raises an eyebrow. "Well don't look this way. I dropped out myself. I'm... not exactly a good role model." He pauses, internally sighing at Angel acting like Roger. "And, as a bit of advice from the wisest person I know, you can survive just about anything you put your mind to."

the_antiangst February 15 2007, 20:14:47 UTC

"Well, yeah, but now that it's killing me literally, why should I let it wreck my creative drive in the bargain?"
