FORTY : Save your sympathy

Oct 17, 2010 20:46

[There's nothing terribly abnormal about this post, other than the sound of Olivier's voice. Those who have come to know her well, children she's tended, and the particularly astute may note that she sounds... hollow ( Read more... )

!action, so over this shit, mayfield can suck it, !phone

[Miakis doesn't even bother answering the call, and just walks on over to her sisbro's house. Getting away from Pancake House is a very good thing for her right now.]

Hey~

wristsniper October 18 2010, 02:19:04 UTC

[It takes Olivier a few long seconds to finish up what she's doing and glance up from her task.

In person, while silent, she seems totally fine.]

Miakis. What can I do for you?

sting_like_a October 18 2010, 02:32:43 UTC

I needed to get out of the damn house, so I thought I'd come give my report in person~... Not that there's much to report. I have my eye on a few people, but I've been... distracted. [She has the grace to look a little sheepish, at least.] Soon, though!

wristsniper October 18 2010, 02:52:14 UTC

[She goes back to her task.]

Soon isn't good enough.

sting_like_a October 18 2010, 03:07:18 UTC

Yeah, I know. Sorry~... Things have been kinda crazy lately, but I think they're settling down, for the most part. So! Back to work, as usual. I won't let you down~

wristsniper October 18 2010, 03:46:05 UTC

I don't want to hear any more excuses. We're losing people every single day.

Just get back to me tomorrow.

sting_like_a October 18 2010, 16:53:04 UTC

Will do. [She nods and gives Olivier a sharp salute -- after a moment, she relaxes, and starts to speak carefully. The tone of the other woman's voice on the phone was easily noticeable, and while she seems fine in person... well, Miakis just wants to make sure.]

...How are you?

wristsniper October 18 2010, 22:16:21 UTC

[Not a FLICKER of anything wrong. She's good at bluffing.]

I'm fine.

sting_like_a October 18 2010, 23:12:02 UTC

[Miakis is almost convinced. ALMOST.]

Just thought I'd make sure~! You sounded... different on the phone. [a beat] Guess my imagination is running wild again~

wristsniper October 18 2010, 23:17:03 UTC

I haven't been sleeping properly. [It's not entirely true, but it sounds good.]

sting_like_a October 18 2010, 23:21:01 UTC

Ah, I'm jealous! If only I could look half as good when I'm sleep deprived~ [Yeah, she's teasing now. 8D]

wristsniper October 18 2010, 23:22:15 UTC

......I'm fine, Miakis.

sting_like_a October 18 2010, 23:24:28 UTC

Oh, come on. We're friends, aren't we~?

wristsniper October 18 2010, 23:28:13 UTC

[Icily:] No. We're not.

It's not your business.

sting_like_a October 18 2010, 23:30:32 UTC

[Ooooh, ice burn. Miakis shows no signs of caring, but you know she is DEEPLY WOUNDED deep down inside.]

Okay, okay, I'll back off. I'm always here if you need anything, though~

wristsniper October 18 2010, 23:31:53 UTC

[Now, now, Miakis. Olivier's just not the type to easily call anyone a friend. In fact, she'll only claim two, here. Maybe four, if pressed.]

...I appreciate the gesture. I just need time to recover.
