Got your attention? Good. I, Sangamon Taylor, hereby invite all and sundry, etc.

Saturday night -- that's the night after tonight, for anyone unfamiliar with how we count the revolutions of this planet.

If I owe you one, you know who you are. Otherwise, bring something to trade -- information or matériel.

Room M90, doors open when they feel like it.

-- S.T.

[writing shaky as if writer is laughing]

[mizuhomaiden.livejournal.com]

That's a good one.

[bullygeneraleva.livejournal.com]

That was why I shared.

[mizuhomaiden.livejournal.com]

Any more?

[bullygeneraleva.livejournal.com]

Not for free.

[mizuhomaiden.livejournal.com]

[inkblot] You're joking, right?

[bullygeneraleva.livejournal.com]

It was worth a try.

[mizuhomaiden.livejournal.com]

Who, in Martel's name, would pay for a pun?

[bullygeneraleva.livejournal.com]

What, do they not have television or stand-up comedy where you're from?

[mizuhomaiden.livejournal.com]

I travel with a guy that think's he's funny and likes to hear himself talk. Does that count?

[bullygeneraleva.livejournal.com]

Not if you don't pay him.

[mizuhomaiden.livejournal.com]

Oh, I compensate him. With my fist.

[bullygeneraleva.livejournal.com]

Sounds like he's actually pretty good entertainment, then.

[mizuhomaiden.livejournal.com]

Occasionally. Otherwise he's damn irritating.

[bullygeneraleva.livejournal.com]

I know the type. Trust me.

[mizuhomaiden.livejournal.com]

Can't live with them, can't kill them without a damn good reason. Kind of miss them when they aren't around.

[bullygeneraleva.livejournal.com]

No. I don't. And the only reason I can't kill him is because he's an illusion.

[mizuhomaiden.livejournal.com]

Oh. Then disbelieve.

Is he an illusion created by someone else or by you?

[bullygeneraleva.livejournal.com]

Not that class of illusion.

I've done some pretty bad things, but I'd never inflict that asshole on the world.

[mizuhomaiden.livejournal.com]

What other kind of illusion could it be? Illusions are just tricks of the mind, sometimes backed by magic.

He sounds charming. Does he know how to knit? If so, I know someone he should be inflicted upon. If not, I still know someone he should be inflicted upon.

[bullygeneraleva.livejournal.com]

False projections are called illusions even if they have some substance, so long as they are a temporary distortion of a reality that will reassert itself when the magic has faded.

I have no idea if the bastard knows how to knit.

[mizuhomaiden.livejournal.com]

It has to have a point of origin, a source. Eliminate the source if he bothers you this much.

[bullygeneraleva.livejournal.com]

[penmark] I can't.

[mizuhomaiden.livejournal.com]

Is whatever made this illusion to torment you that powerful? Everything, everything can be overcome. You just have to want it bad enough. And maybe try something you doubt will work. You never know.

[bullygeneraleva.livejournal.com]

Only the strong have the privilege of telling themselves that lie. Don't mistake your talents for perseverance, child.

[mizuhomaiden.livejournal.com]

It's not a lie, it's belief. I've seen what was once thought impossible become possible.

Maybe you're just afraid to try.
