[ajrimmer_ssc]

Erm.

I, erm, need some suggestions in the fastest possible way, I mean ASAP, for, erm...

Last minute birthday presents?

Smegging hell I'm an idiot...

[voice] SOB HE IS TRYING

[matchmyreach]

Er...have you considered something handmade? I've always heard that it seems more meaningful, even if it's...

Do you have any sewing skills?

[voice] GOD BLESS YOU STRANGE ALIEN THING

[ajrimmer_ssc]

...Erm, no. No, definitely no sewing skills at all.

[voice] WATCH AS HE IS USELESS AND FAILS o7

[matchmyreach]

Can you draw?

[voice] Yeah but Rimmer's the real failure here.

[ajrimmer_ssc]

No.

[bluffing_ruffle]

I would say so, yes.

[ajrimmer_ssc]

Yes, thank you for that, kick a man while he's down why don't you?

[dcushitkicker]

Figured it out yet?

[ajrimmer_ssc]

Yes, I've got a plan. God, next year I'm getting the date tattooed on my palm so I don't forget again.

[dcushitkicker]

Sounds like a plan, man. Nothin' says love like sticking ink under your skin with needles to remember your girl's birthday.

[ajrimmer_ssc]

That was hyperbole. I actually can't get tattoos. The needle would break against me.

[ajrimmer_ssc]

[He's got the house's laptop open in front of him, and he's making notes.]

Mm. Yes. Got the tickets to the theater tomorrow, show's at three. The camera will be ready just after that, and the roses are going to be delivered here tomorrow evening when we get home.

...I'm such an idiot sometimes.

[action]

[ajrimmer_ssc]

Pfft. You wouldn't have seen the back of me. I'd have run off to join the French Foreign Legion if I'd remembered too late.

So what are you getting her?

[locked posts cannot affect ACTION]

[darkprophecies]

[The only saving grace of any of this secretive stuff is the fact she's been cooking - and is in fact still cooking. Or well... cooking all over again. Bless her, she's still learning how to properly cook meat on a stove without burning it to a crisp. ATTEMPT #2 TO MAKE THE BOYS DINNER IS GO!]

[OH NOES!]

[ajrimmer_ssc]

[He arrives in the kitchen after all of this, sniffing the air.]

Do I detect a piquant whiff of charcoal and burnt hair? Ah, Raven must be cooking again.

[HE IS SO BAD.]

[darkprophecies]

[She doesn't even dignify him with a glance, since that was just mean, damn it.]

Keep talking and I'll go and fetch dinner from the McDonalds down the way, Arnold.

[ajrimmer_ssc]

[Oh come on, he's just playing!]

Eugh, no, I'd even eat your cooking than that. Here, honey, turn the heat down on this one, it'll go better that way. You don't have to have it turned up to the proverbial 11 to make sure it's cooked properly, you know.
