[he sounds very serious and meaningful--anyone who knows him will recognize that the tone is utterly genuine and that it is very unlike him--this is obviously not a joke barely two sentences in]A lot of people around here have been complaining about the current American holiday that takes place right now. I would like to rectify the mistake you are

As one thankful for what little he had and stepped into shadows with almost no regrets: amen.

Done with dissertation? Beverages might reach sentience and run off table.

[a pause as he appreciates Rory's sentiments... and then quiet laughter]

Yeah, all right. That sounds wonderful. And I'd hate let a good drink go to waste, after all....

[yeah_i_can_fly]

It's true. They were unprepared settlers in a new world who came only with the desire to start anew and make a place for themselves. It was harsh. They didn't understand... not truly, not until they came of course. But most of them didn't have a choice; most didn't have anything else.

[pause] I'm glad someone understands now. That was worth it. And... thank you for listening.

[yeah_i_can_fly]

I like that example. Sad... --Now you've got the right idea. It's always hard to say.

It has been, mostly. But--having a feast to enjoy oneself, a distraction, sometimes that's needed too. And still just sometimes it takes a moment of happiness to realize the loss, the reality--and to gain the understanding. We'll see.

((I know. XO I've been really tired lately--tags have pretty much been put on hold--I've got a new job. I keep meaning to say something in the OOC comm but, yeah, obviously haven't gotten around to it yet. XD And I always want to keep going, silly me... adding more to my plate. X3))

[notarrowette]

[yeah_i_can_fly]

[spaceflyboy]

Bravo.
