I've heard some distressing rumors on the board and would like to confirm.

If the members of the family would please report on their status as well as anything you may or may not have actually seen during the course of the night, I would be grateful.

Also, Allelujah, if you have lunch free, I would like to speak with you.

I'm alive I think

[tender-cruelty.livejournal.com]

Um, I'm free then.

-Allelujah

[byname-bynature.livejournal.com]

Excellent. I'll find you in the Cafeteria, then. No need to be nervous, it's only a chat. :)

--A.F. II

[strayfag]

I'm around.

[byname-bynature.livejournal.com]

I've heard that people last night were dying in similar ways to loved ones.

Are you alright?

--A.F. II

[strayfag]

Well, Alle broke my heart but nothing really exciting happened. You?

[strayfag]

Oh, and I got you a gift.

[folded cutout from 'Busty Asian Beauties'. Use your imagination~]

[byname-bynature.livejournal.com]

You can't see me right now, but I am displeased.

[He's removed the cutout.]

[strayfag]

Brat, when someone gives you a gift you're supposed to say 'thank you'.

It's not my fault it wasn't Hot Asian Hunks.

[Badou has underlined 'You?' in the above post.]

[byname-bynature.livejournal.com]

The sex is immaterial! I don't want to see a man in a string bikini ei

Thank you, Badou. I'll treasure it until my nurse turns my pocket inside out and drags me away by my ear. Or until I'm able to change my pants.

I'm fine. I was in my room with Haku all night. He's still very injured and needs his rest.

[strayfag]

Change your pants, huh? That's a little too much information about what you're doing with that picture. Maybe next time you should wait until you get back to your room. I'm sure Haku wouldn't mind. He might even enjoy the show.

[byname-bynature.livejournal.com]

NOT LIKE THAT.

[strayfag]

You need help or something? You shouldn't be shy. I'm sure between me and Schuldig you could learn a lot about that sort of thing.

[byname-bynature.livejournal.com]

Badou, I'm in a facility where nurses are breathing down my neck day and night. Even if I wanted to do such a thing, I don't have the privacy necessary.

[strayfag]

With an attitude like that you're going to be eaten by birds.

[strayfag]

Also you should know you have this one vein in your head that kinda pulses when you get all worked up. You're what, 10 going on to 80? A boy your age should take it easy.

[byname-bynature.livejournal.com]

Most likely. I'd rather die than engage in sexual intercourse, though.

Do I?

I don't have a vein that pulses in my head. And I'm calm!

[strayfag]

You can't do both? La petit mort? I didn't think you were that serious about it. What's with you and sex anyway? If it's cooties they have shots for that now.

Uh huh.

[byname-bynature.livejournal.com]

What's 'with me'? I'm fourteen, Badou. I know it's hard to remember sometimes, but it's perfectly normal for someone my age to be uninterested in sex or physical relationships of any kind--especially given the traumatic situation I'm in right now.

Yes.

[strayfag]

So it's cooties.

[byname-bynature.livejournal.com]

Cooties do not exist. Unless you're referring to STDs or STIs. In which case, not only girls have those.

[strayfag]

Deep breaths Arty.

[byname-bynature.livejournal.com]

What for?

[strayfag]

Relaxation techniques.

[byname-bynature.livejournal.com]

I'm perfectly calm.

[strayfag]

[the note is carefully torn in this corner where part of it was removed] Ok.

[byname-bynature.livejournal.com]

[It took him a while to post back--he's been staring at it for a while.]

Sex doesn't make me uncomfortable, Badou. It's just not featured on my list of priorities. Nor will it ever be, I think.

[strayfag]

Well, my life would be slightly less entertaining if you ever lost your virginity - but since I'm a good person, I'm willing to make that sacrifice.

Maybe tomorrow we'll do sex ed.

[byname-bynature.livejournal.com]

I know that there wouldn't be the worry of the virgin-eating birds, but I'm not going to let Landel force me into a corner, to the point where I have to have sex to consider myself 'safe'.

And I do not need sexual education. I have books.

[strayfag]

So do I. This one is called Busty Asian Beauties. We can read it together.

[byname-bynature.livejournal.com]

[*kicks LJ notifs*]

I don't want to consider the implications of reading something like that with you.

Besides. The second a nurse sees what you're showing me, she'll take it away.

[strayfag]

There is no escape, Arty. Just face it like a man.

I'll see you tomorrow.
