blah sorry for the delay; not enough time in the AM apparentlyeternalflawsDecember 2 2011, 02:29:11 UTC
"It is," came the disinterested assurance as Chad made his way to the ground floor, eyeing the other suspiciously. "Or more accurately it's between owners. But please, come inside, make yourself at home. Nobody else is." There was a slight bitterness behind the words, although really who could blame him? He'd been murdered in this very house, just out of reach of the man he'd been fairly sure he wanted to spend the rest of his life with, and even before then it hadn't really been much of a home, more like a space occupied by two people who barely seemed to like each other most days.
So yes, if he was bitter, he was entirely justified.
He crossed his arms, outwardly welcoming but inwardly seething. It was all too common an occurrence these days, unfortunately...and it had nothing to do with the strange man dripping on his floors. He took a breath, and attempted a sincere smile. "...Sorry, it's just been one of those days. How about we start over. Hi, I'm Chad. Please, come in. ...And if you're going to drip, I'd suggest that rug over there; I really don't want to have to pay for redoing the floors after everything else we've spent already."
