Ah. Desire. Of course.

[ A beat. ]

Have you had yours met yet, Cameron?

voice then video; private implemented November 6 2009, 22:50:05 UTC

[ A slight laugh. ] I think most people would find my emotional responses to things distressing, Cameron. I wouldn't blame him if he did. But I am who I am. It's nice to know that you can at least appreciate that much.

[ There's the sound of fumbling and motion and then, after a click, the video function comes on. Nigel smiles, despite the fact that one of his eye sockets is bruised yellow and purple and another series of bruises gathered around the line of his jaw and chin and up slightly to one corner of his mouth. He shrugs. ]

As well as can be expected.

Yes, I appreciate it quite a lot.

[ Cameron turns on her camera in kind; her eyes are red-rimmed and he obviously cried at some point, but right now she's got blankets buried up to her chin. The snow is visible through one of the windows behind her bed.

She tilts her head and takes stock of the damage and the location of all his bruises. ]

An altercation? Or a violent sexual encounter?

[ Nigel laughs brightly, rows of teeth showing as he grins into the camera, perhaps a bit more knowingly than he should. There's an edge to that look as well, like he's about to issue a threat, which obviously he isn't. It's a different look to Nigel; one he seems to enjoy. ]

Jack and I had a disagreement.

[ And Cameron shakes her head, slightly, at both the expression and the unspoken admission. ]

I see. Was there a victor in this disagreement?

video; private implemented November 6 2009, 23:30:07 UTC

[ Nigel smiles a bit wider. ]

Yes. Me.

Congratulations, my friend.

I would like to reschedule seeing you. Today might be problematic unless you wished to come over here.

I doubt Jack would agree to congratulations, but I'm not one to disagree.

[ He nods, idly. ]

I'd be quite amenable to that, Cameron.

video; private | again with the amazing ridiculousness mobius_bound November 6 2009, 23:41:25 UTC

Well. Jack did not win the disagreement, apparently.

[ Cameron raises her eyebrows. ]

Oh. That would be nice. If you are coming over I will let Kyle know.

video; private | nigel is so lucky this conversation is private or nigel would get hit again implemented November 6 2009, 23:43:39 UTC

[ He's quiet for a moment, considering. ]

Would you like me to take you out, Cameron? I could do that, if you'd rather.

video; private | yes, yes he is. mobius_bound November 7 2009, 01:01:14 UTC

Out?

[ She frowns, slightly, but then nods. ]

Yes, I would like to go out.

video; private implemented November 7 2009, 01:03:38 UTC

[ He lifts his eyebrows curiously. ]

It's just a suggestion. We can stay instead if you'd rather. I could always make you tea.

video; private mobius_bound November 7 2009, 01:09:21 UTC

I think...staying in would be better.

[ An apologetic look. ]

I keep falling asleep.
