[ VII ] Apologies

[illicitsolution.livejournal.com]

... [a large ink blot slowly spreads across the paper]

... I'm sorry about what I said yesterday. I don't know what came over me. I... seemed to have suffered a mood swing.

I didn't mean what I said. I... well- ... ... If you like you can come back.

My head is pounding. I shouldn't have gone to that party. I'm not entirely sure why I did. Spur of the moment urge. Strange, I'm usually more reserved than that.

What's done is done, I suppose.

I never did thank you for the duckling. Things are just been busy since I revived. She's doing well, by the way. Could you swing by and baby sit her tonight, if you're not busy? Or help me find someone? I don't want to leave her alone again like I had last night.

As a warning to those on floor twenty-two, if you smell blood or rot in the next few days, pay it no heed. I'm just working on something.

Working on something?

[illicitsolution.livejournal.com]

I can't speak much about it. I haven't begun yet, and so I'm not sure what'll come of it.

I'm using bodies though. Corpses.

[soldyoursoul.livejournal.com]

I see.

[illicitsolution.livejournal.com]

Oh, really? What room numbers exactly, if by any chance you remember? I might look into moving. I just haven't thought about it since- ... Yes, I think I might move.

[filter;]

Ruby has agreed to bring me bodies as needed until I sort out a freezer. It shouldn't be that hard. ...Would you happen to have one?
I am... ... I well, I'm considering attempting to make a flesh golem.

[illicitsolution.livejournal.com]

509? That's quite a way down. Excellent... I'll look into that.

[filter;

I well... I'm embarrassed to admit this, but I haven't had many attempts to try. I'm not sure- well... Do you have the ability, sir?
Ruby will bring me as many as I ask for. ]

[notsomuchakitty.livejournal.com]

You need one?

[illicitsolution.livejournal.com]

Tomorrow would be the best bet. I still have a few things to sort and-

...Are you still up for tonight or do you need to cancel again?

[notsomuchakitty.livejournal.com]

Sounds good to me.

No I don't need to cancel tonight. I may have to find someone to babysit my turtle, though....oh hey! Lana!

[percipience.livejournal.com]

......your turtle?

[notsomuchakitty.livejournal.com]

Fangs got turned into a midget turtle. Can you watch him? He screams and swears a lot but he's kind of cute.

[illicitsolution.livejournal.com]

Great. What's a good time?

...Turtle. Lana is watching my duck as well. Resident zoo keeper, isn't she?

[notsomuchakitty.livejournal.com]

Um...well I need time to convince Fangs to be good for Lana soooo 8-9ish?

[percipience.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't mind babysitting her at all. When should I be by for her?
She should be fine being alone, though.

I'll bring you something for that hangover if you'd like.

[illicitsolution.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure yet, but I'll let you know in advance.
I don't feel right about leaving her alone. I don't want her to get into anything that might end up killing her.

... That would be excellent, but I'll likely just be drinking again in a few hours. You can come by sometime if you like though.

[percipience.livejournal.com]

Alright. Considering the mother that spawned her I think it'd be safe to say that it'd take a lot to kill her.

[a pause]
Then a shot of whiskey it is. I'll be up.

[illicitsolution.livejournal.com]

I'd rather not risk it, if you understand. It was bad enough trying to keep her from fighting with Xehanort's Shadow. When he was... here... that is.

You're too kind, Lana.

[percipience.livejournal.com]

Oh I und---- have no idea how a duck can have a problem with a shadow...

[soft laugh]
I'll be up in two shakes.

[another.livejournal.com]

That's alright.

[illicitsolution.livejournal.com]

It's... not. It's really not.

[another.livejournal.com]

... I believe it is. These things happen often.

[illicitsolution.livejournal.com]

... Do they really?

[another.livejournal.com]

So I hear.
