[Her writing is rushed, a little bigger than she would normally write, in her haste to get the words down on the page.]

What the bloody hell happened while I was away?

[A slight pause, and her next writing is almost calm.]

Precisely how long have I been away?

FRED!

It has been too long! I do not remember what day you left on! But today is the 20th and welcome back! I should come visit!

[burnt_orangesky]

A bit more than two weeks, then. That is longer than I was expecting, really.

You are doing well?

[spandexisyouth]

It was longer than any of us wanted.

Well? Of course I am! I am always doing well! Define well?

[burnt_orangesky]

[Pause. You are acting suspicious, good sir.] I meant your mental well-being, I suppose, but now I wish to know if you have been hurt. Or if you are sick, or otherwise unwell in any way.

[spandexisyouth]

I am always mentally fit! And I am not sick at all.

[burnt_orangesky]

Then you are hurt in some way?

[spandexisyouth]

I am sure that I did not say that.

[burnt_orangesky]

Gai. Kindly do not insult my intelligence.

[spandexisyouth]

You are very smart! I would never insult your intelligence.

[burnt_orangesky]

[Obviously she's not going to get a straight answer out of him today.] I will come visit you soon, alright?

Are you in your house or the Clinic?

[spandexisyouth]

Or I will come visit you! To welcome you home!

I have no reason to be in the clinic. So I am not there.

Just save her from the hour it will take for you to limp to her house, and have her come over.

[burnt_orangesky]

The thought is appreciated, but unnecessary if you are injured.

If you arrive at my home and I see bandages, I will be most displeased, Gai.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

Subtle, Gai. Subtle.

[spandexisyouth]

I will get better at subtle one day!

And my cooking did not damage the sphere. You actually had seconds the last time I cooked!

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

Sure you will.

You were imagining things.

[spandexisyouth]

I shall!

I was not. You got up and had seconds. And ate them. And did not complain.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

And didn't die? It had to be some sort of fantasy you were having.

[spandexisyouth]

Obviously you did not die. And I do not fantasize about my cooking getting eaten!

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

[He's totally teasing, of course, and making it up just to piss you off, and because Fred's back and it's Fred's entry and so he has an audience.]

Yeah, I think you do. I swear I've heard you talking in your sleep about it. "Mm, yes, Genius. Eat my food. Like that, deep bites, yeah~"

[spandexisyouth]

That is not true! It cannot be true! You are making food sound... dirty!

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

Food is dirty.

[man-genius.livejournal.com]

Gross.

[spandexisyouth]

That is what I thought!

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

Maybe that will get you to swear off so many sugars and inappropriate starches and start eating healthy, hm?
