{Fourteen (42)} &diams A gift to the city, the veins of which have broken me down

[burnt_orangesky]

I suppose it is [pen taps] somewhat appropriate that my birthday be marked by a resurgence in these troublesome things; I did manage to evade being struck by rubber balls today, though it was a near thing once or twice.

Thank you for the cake, Composer, it was quite good.

I like it when you are happy. I am happy then as well.

Oh, I see.
I admit, it's better when we both get something out of it, yeah.

[spandexisyouth]

We both normally-- I mean that if you want something then all you have to do is let me know.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

I know.

[spandexisyouth]

Good. I am glad that you know.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

Yeah, whatever.

[spandexisyouth]

I do not think you mean whatever.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

Ah, right. You're the interpreter now, hm? What do I mean?

[spandexisyouth]

That you are not sure how to respond because you want to be aloof but you do not want to be hurtful and so you say 'yeah whatever.'

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

Huh. I never knew 'yeah. whatever' was such a complex phrase.

[spandexisyouth]

When someone does not say a lot sometimes you have to listen more.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

True.
