Conversation V:
TeddyBare (5:49 PM): hey there, love.
TeddyBare (5:57 PM): And’?
TeddyBare (6:00 PM): hello…?
TeddyBare (6:04 PM): fine then, ignore me.
TeddyBare (6:06 PM): I can’t take this rejection. *cries*
MermaidsFlame (6:07 PM): good lord you’re needy sometimes…
TeddyBare: why u leave me?
MermaidsFlame: Sorry babe… making dinner. And your sister’s here, btw.
TeddyBare: which one?
MermaidsFlame: Rosie.
MermaidsFlame: She waves from across the living room.
TeddyBare: *waves back*
MermaidsFlame: I called her and told her I was tired of cooking/eating alone and invited her over.
TeddyBare: ah. What’re you making?
MermaidsFlame: Food. That you eat.
TeddyBare: what a concept.
MermaidsFlame: Mediterranean pasta and chicken.
TeddyBare: o_0
MermaidsFlame: You’ve never had it.
TeddyBare (6:12 PM): oh, okay…
MermaidsFlame (6:15): can I have your lover’s babies? Pleeeeeze?
MermaidsFlame: this is Rosie, btw.
TeddyBare: yah I kind of figured.
TeddyBare (6:16 PM): I dunno- ask him.
MermaidsFlame (6:18 PM): He says what if they didn’t have red hair?
TeddyBare: *snort* ask for a refund.
MermaidsFlame: I seriously would if they didn’t have red hair… that’s like… half the point. And we could only speak with Irish accents around them, so we’d have Irish kids!
TeddyBare: you’ve… put a lot of thought into this, haven’t you?
MermaidsFlame: yes.
TeddyBare: I have to compete with my own sister for my lover now? What is the world coming to?
MermaidsFlame: you have things I could never compete with.
TeddyBare: *bites tongue*
MermaidsFlame: oh I went there, Teddy, I went there.
TeddyBare: I would ask where my innocent little sister went, but I already know you were never innocent.
MermaidsFlame: it’s all a clever disguise.
TeddyBare: didn’t fool me, Rosie-bear.
MermaidsFlame: so your loverboy and I are going to break out the wine and get drunk.
TeddyBare: we have wine?
MermaidsFlame: you do now. I brought it over. Before you get exited it’s in a box.
TeddyBare: can that even be considered real wine?
MermaidsFlame: And’ has a point: some of those cheap table wines are all right.
TeddyBare: true, I suppose. But they’re at least in a bottle.
TeddyBare: what’s he doing, anyway? Or did you just randomly steal the laptop from him?
MermaidsFlame: well, he was working on the chicken… but Stasie heard the can opener and came a’runnin’.
TeddyBare: she does that.
MermaidsFlame: so do you.
TeddyBare: I do n… not all the time.
MermaidsFlame: you do- I did an experiment once. I opened the fridge and waited. You were there in under a minute… so was Dad, actually…
MermaidsFlame: Who is smarter: my brother, or a hamster?
TeddyBare: Simpsons FTW.
MermaidsFlame: Lisa FTW.
TeddyBare: same diff.
MermaidsFlame: …and now back to your regularly scheduled program! Bye, Teddy! *hugs*
TeddyBare: bye, Rosie. *hugs back tightly*
MermaidsFlame: hey again. Have a nice cat wiht Rosie?
MermaidsFlame: *chat
TeddyBare: I can tell what’s on your mind. Stasie weaving around you ankles?
MermaidsFlame: No, I just fed her. But she was before. Heard the can opener.
TeddyBare: that’s what Rosie said. How’s dinner going?
MermaidsFlame: Good. We decided that the dinning room table needs to be used, just so it can remember what it’s purpose is.
TeddyBare: you mean the junk mail and file folders holder?
MermaidsFlame: That’s the one.
TeddyBare: nice. You guys planning anything else, or just dinner?
MermaidsFlame: We’re going to run away together. Somewhere tropic… Brazil maybe. We might send you a postcard.
TeddyBare: I knew it! I knew you’d leave me… *dramatic sob*
MermaidsFlame: Rosie says I’d be more apt to run off with James.
TeddyBare: I somehow think James would have something to say about that…
MermaidsFlame: …she says that’s what the duct tape’s for.
TeddyBare: 0_0
MermaidsFlame: *snicker*
TeddyBare: I… don’t really know how to respond to that.
MermaidsFlame: mental images?
TeddyBare: …some things cannot be unseen…
MermaidsFlame: oh come on it can’t be that bad…
TeddyBare: …you didn’t see what just flashed before my eyes…
MermaidsFlame: do I *want* to know?
TeddyBare: no… no, spare yourself.
MermaidsFlame: *sighs* what I am going to do with you, Teddy my love?
TeddyBare: great many things.
MermaidsFlame: *snork* Maybe later, babe, when you’re sister’s not reading over my shoulder.
TeddyBare: in that case…
MermaidsFlame: too late, he’s already gone back to working on dinner. You get to suffer talk to me again! *grins scarily*
TeddyBare: I’m jumping for joy. really.
MermaidsFlame: Sarcasm: the force is strong with this one…
TeddyBare: it runs in the family.
MermaidsFlame: really? I’d never noticed.
TeddyBare: heh.
MermaidsFlame:

TeddyBare: …
MermaidsFlame: you should have seen the look on And’s face when I showed it to him.
TeddyBare: why do you try to break his mind?
TeddyBare: that’s my job.
MermaidsFlame: As if I haven’t seen worse, Teddy.
TeddyBare: I don’t want to think about my sister in that context…
MermaidsFlame: you’re not. This is And’.
TeddyBare: what? When?
MermaidsFlame: just now.
TeddyBare: ack! So confused!
MermaidsFlame: I’ve seen much worse, Teddy. And you know it.
TeddyBare: you live with me.
MermaidsFlame: It doesn’t feel like it, lately.
TeddyBare: I know. I’m sick of all these stupid trips, too. I haven’t heard word back yet from HQ if this is the last of these long ones for the fiscal year, or not. I seriously hope so.
MermaidsFlame: Me too.
TeddyBare: We are wrapping up here, though. If only our tickets were transferable…
MermaidsFlame: Kind of hard when company pays for them…
TeddyBare: I’d pay the difference if it meant I got to come home to you sooner.
MermaidsFlame: One day won’t kill me. Or you.
TeddyBare: At this rate it might.
MermaidsFlame: You act as if we won’t be making up for it when you come home…
MermaidsFlame: and wasn’t last night enough to tide you over until you get home? And yes, Rosie, I know you’re still behind me and reading over my shoulder. You’re like Teddy- not sneaky…
TeddyBare: heh… yah, I kind of gave up trying a long time ago.
MermaidsFlame: no one can out-sneak And’, anyway.
TeddyBare: this is also true.
MermaidsFlame: hey, dinner’s ready…
TeddyBare: I’ll let you both go, then. Bye Rosie- big hugs from Teddy.
MermaidsFlame: Kissies!
TeddyBare: …she gone now?
MermaidsFlame: Yes.
TeddyBare: *evil grin*
MermaidsFlame: …but hurry up cause I’m starving.
TeddyBare: fine, kill the mood.
MermaidsFlame: We’re IMing, Teddy. There is no mood.
TeddyBare: there was last night.
MermaidsFlame: and last night I wasn’t starving.
TeddyBare: jeeze, bite my head off why don’t you.
MermaidsFlame: Teddy: I’m bloody hungry. I’ve said it enough in the past five seconds you should know this. You know how I get when I’m hungry.
TeddyBare: *laughs* I know, I’m just riling y ou… Have a good dinner, and a nice visit. Glad you’re not alone. *kisses*
MermaidsFlame: *grabs tie and pulls forward (because I know you’re still wearing one)* love you, Teddy. See you soon.
TeddyBare: Love you too, And’.
