I will readily admit that I am finding this difficult. That is to say, I do not know how well I am adjusting to living 'independently'--I cannot rightly call myself independent when I am aware I still rely on the company of others. And, really, acting entirely on my own is not so much difficult as it is perplexing. And a little ( Read more... )

[It's always easier to voice your thoughts into a cell phone than it is face to face--or online where it can be deleted (and usually is)--so Briseis is rather more animated than she would usually be to most people up front. This does not change the fact she is obviously a little irritated.]I figured out ( Read more... )

... Lady Adrestia?

Um, I really don't wish to sound presumptuous, but--but would you mind helping me carry the last of my books up? I mean, you really don't need to, I can carry them myself, I just... Well. I'm selling them anyway, but... if you don't mind?

Especially not when she seems to watch me like a hawk. Is it that obvious I am troubled?Through all the ( Read more... )

Blessed ancestors, I do love my own clothes.

Sorry, I ... If it makes you feel any better, my knuckles are still bruised.

EDIT; Achilles, I--can I talk to you?

Achilles?

Patroclus?

I...

I need to borrow some clothes.

Just. Don't ask.

Please.

[Filter: PRIVATE]I'm quite content, really, to sit here and play with the dog, pretending that the sudden absence of life in this apartment does not bother me. I am fine knowing that any reaction Bonnie gives to anything I do is largely a survival instinct--I can read, she is far from stupid, and I'm higher in the 'pack' than her.
