十 六 ; shí liù

[getsomesleep]

I should like to assure all those who wonder that the contents of the text over my head do not in any way reflect my thoughts, despite appearance to the contrary. Poor diction aside, I cannot imagine why I should invest so much though in wondering what color of hat would best suit each man or woman I meet; nor do I actually mean to set anyone on fire, in case someone sees any reason to credit that accusation.

My utmost apologies for the inevitable distraction.

I daresay that sounds remarkably inconvenient.

[spandexisyouth]

Most were kind about it, but of course Bell used it against me. Not in a cruel way. But in the way he tends to.

[getsome-sleep.livejournal.com]

Shi-Bell is as constant as the tides; better the devil one knows.

[spandexisyouth]

He is no devil. He is my partner.

[getsome-sleep.livejournal.com]

Merely a figure of speech. I'm certain that he is a fine and virtuous man, in his way.

[spandexisyouth]

I think that we can agree that he is fine. I do not think I can say about virtuous.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure whether to be flattered that you both think I'm fine, or insulted that you don't think I'm virtuous.

[spandexisyouth]

Bell! I He did not mean it that way! And you are not a bad person but you are not

Virtuous is

You know what I mean!

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

Hm? Sorry, not a mind reader. What do you mean?

Hastily written as if he's a little flustered.

[spandexisyouth]

You are sometimes very perverted and that is not virtuous.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

I suppose I could stop...

Or find another target.

[spandexisyouth]

Please do not, either, ever.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

What kind of incentive can you offer me for following that?

[spandexisyouth]

I am hardly going to write that out on the journals! And on Huo's journal page too!

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

I'm sure he's curious too.

[spandexisyouth]

Huo is very proper!

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

That doesn't mean he's not curious.

[spandexisyouth]

But [long pause.] I doubt that he is but if he is he can say so for himself and I do not think he will so then he would not be interested.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

Maybe I should perv at him, then, so he'll get interested.

[spandexisyouth]

If that is what you wish to do.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

Maybe it is.

[getsome-sleep.livejournal.com]

Gai-jūn is far too kind. I am not nearly as virtuous as he claims.

[Being humble again? NO ONE KNOWS.]

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

He usually is too kind.

What sort of impure thoughts and gutterwater taint your brain, Huo-kun?

[getsome-sleep.livejournal.com]

How forthright. Surely gui-Bell does not expect satisfaction from so little coaxing?

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

Sure I do. It doesn't take much coaxing to get satisfaction out of Gai-kun.
