Current music:"New Age" nonsense that sounds like chipmunks wearing bells

I emerge from the deep, dank depths-- oh wait, that's Sevvie's dungeons.

Let's try again. Overstuffed cushions are the most comfortable things in the entire world to fall asleep all curled up together on. I fear Sibyll has invaded my brain with satisfyingly suspicious incense, rather positive tarot readings, and most of all chocolate. This (pleasant) interruption of my standard negative and derisive nature quite possibly has something to do with the burgeoning conspiracy theories about the week of cancelled lessons and alien invasions.

Sibyll has the most interesting (and reusable, as they come in packs of twenty!) taste in gifts.

Dare I say it? I dare. I am actually quite contented right now. As such, I cannot be bothered to mock anyone. I'm sure you'll all miss my acerbic drollness and stunning retorts.

Well, I certainly hope they're interesting!!!

Do you think that perhaps we should pay Severus a visit and bring him chocolate? The cards have been suggesting that ALTRUISM should be my goal for the New Year, you know, and we are nearly a month in with very little altruism accomplished!!!

I do not think we should bring him quite the, ah, same form of chocolate as you gave me. For one thing, I don't think he and I wear the same size.

He'd probably prefer those blood-flavored lollipops, the type that are coated in dark chocolate. Lilitou would enjoy those as well.

Discussion of gifting and candy aside, I find you perfectly altruistic anyway.

Re:

You do?! Oh, you're too SWEET!! But of course I didn't mean exactly same type of chocolate! The blood-flavored lollys sound WONDERFUL to bring him. Should we?!

Re:

I think we should.

But also some form of alcohol should be brought along on this little dungeon-based picnic. Because we're good friends like that, Sevvie and I, and he'd never dream of slamming the door in my face were I to visit sans drink. Oh no.

Re:

Well he constantly casts aspersions on my choice of drink, so perhaps you should choose!!

Re:

Dear? It's because you like to drink things with strange foreign objects in them, like pulpy gory bits of pineapple and pink umbrellas. You might as well be drinking fruit juice for all the good your drinks do.

Re:

Those "foreign objects" as you call them make the drink much better!! I cannot fathom how you can drink hard liquor straight!

Ah well, if we are to impose on Severus I imagine that we should indulge him in his choice of drink, should we not?!

The drink is tolerable. But what the hell are you doing, giving me these blood-flavoured lollipops? Lilitou cannot eat hard sweets, you know that. She is a cat.

Hooch, since your "friend" seems to have fallen "asleep" on my sofa (I have checked, and she is breathing normally), what say you to inviting Sinistra? One would hate to be bleary-eyed in the morning while she is not, since we seem to be staying up late this evening.

onourbrooms @ 2004-02-03 04:17 am UTC

Yes. Sinistra is thirsty. I can tell.

And you're the *potions* master. Melt them for her, and put the lollipop juice in a saucer. It'll be nice and teeth-rotting, except she has fangs.

Did you know your ceiling has green things on it? It rather looks like moss. Sibyll found it quite funny. Are you growing mushrooms in your ceiling? Remus is rather fond of a good mushroom, you know.

Re:

I will not risk Lilitou's teeth, fangs or otherwise, on the whim of a couple of madwomen.

It is interesting how you see green things growing from my ceiling chiefly when you are drinking from that green bottle.

Re:

She could always regrow them. She is probably harboring loads of secret resent because you never let her have any fun and plotting to drain all of your blood out of you as you sleep. Of course, three-fourths of your blood content would be alcohol at present...

Sevvie!! Brilliant idea-- catfights! Dogfighting is rather out of the question these days, what with one half of the school's dog population leaving, but I feel confident that Lily could beat Filch's creature. Or Minerva, for that matter.

Regarding green things, I fail to see the issue. You should be worried, knowing that were we salad eaters, we could make one from your ceiling.

Re:

I am not worried at all. Eat from my ceiling any time you like. I fancy it would be rather like using goats to trim the lawn.

Re:

I imagine Sibyll would be rather offended at that remark, were she not nursing her head. She's quite fond of salad, you know.

I don't think anybody actually uses goats to trim their lawn. I don't know anyone who has a lawn, come to it.
