fortieth

[lifeandliesof.livejournal.com]

[there's a small sound of contentment, the sounds of stretching, and a little thud as Albus throws down his quill, and picks up the journal to dictate]

If there is a line, I think I crossed it quite a while ago. I feel like I haven't spoken to my friends in ages! [can you hear the smile, and slight guilt in his voice?] Purely my fault, I'm afraid; I was caught up in work in my room, then busy with our findings beyond the borders, only to come back and find myself with a roommate, (thank you again, Ken, for accommodating me) and then to throw myself back into work again.

[there's some whining, and whuffy sounds. Albus laughs]

Oh, yes, it's partially your fault too, Dro, but I don't blame you a whit for it. You needed the attention. I'm just glad you're feeling a bit better now, after some time outside and some rest. Isn't that right?

[there's a pause, and a soft growl, which Albus is going to take for a yes 8D he ruffles Dro's mane]

We'll go get you a good dinner in a bit.

[directs himself fully at the journal once again. warmly:]

Now, as for you folks. How are you all doing?

[is in like. a random good mood. 8D even ... more so than usual. talk to him or something]

Do try not to blow anything up, Albus. You'd make the children cry.

[mild, pretend shock]

What gives you the idea that I would do anything of the sort?

[Amused tone]

I don't know, the thought of you going near something of that nature brings explosions to mind. They can become quite frustrating, those games.

[lifeandliesof.livejournal.com]

Oh, I don't know. I'm sure I could handle it. I'm quite good at games, you know.

[onlyanapple.livejournal.com]

Computer games?

[lifeandliesof.livejournal.com]

I'm a fast learner.

[onlyanapple.livejournal.com]

Let me know when you try that. I think it will be something worth watching.

[lifeandliesof.livejournal.com]

[laugh]

And definitely not because you think you'll derive some amusement from me, right?

[onlyanapple.livejournal.com]

Me? Derive amusement from the failings of others? Never!

[lifeandliesof.livejournal.com]

Good! My feelings are liable to get hurt, you know.
