Thanks for nothing! (Backdated obv.)

[Ryoga's Thanksgiving went pretty much like this: Got splashed with cold water at about nine when he managed to break a faucet in the bathroom, got caught by kitchen staff at about nine thirty sneaking into the kitchen to find some hot water. Considering it was a miracle he found his way there in the first place, he was less than pleased by this.

[SOMEONE saw you, Ryoga.]

I didn't peg you for the streaking type.

[.....she saw him. SHE saw him. His one and only friend here. Saw. Him. Naked.]

I'm not. I think I'll just go crawl into a hole and die now.

Oh, don't be so melodramatic! I'm sure there was a perfectly good reason for it.

...There IS a perfectly good reason for it, right?

[walk_500_miles]

Yes! No. Yes. There is. But it's nothing you need to worry about. Really! It's nothing!

...

Is someone beating you up?

[walk_500_miles]

What? No! That's not it at all! No-one's done anything like that to me fo--ever. Never.

You can tell me! If they are, I'll kick their butts for you!

No-one is doing anything to me!

...do you really think I'm that weak?

Re: Private

[dancebellydance]

I didn't say that! You don't have to be weak for someone to pick on you!

Well, if you say so... Just remember to come tell me if I can do anything!

Re: Private

[walk_500_miles]

....I guess you're right. But no. There's no-one here who has. The only person I really even talk to much is you so...

I'm sorry but... I... I really can't say any more than I have, and it's nothing you could fix. Let's just drop it alright?

Re: Private

[dancebellydance]

All right... I'll be here if you change your mind, okay?

I appreciate it. And of course, the same goes for you.
