We were discussing the ceiling, but all right.

How was it?

Exhilirating.

It had better be.

What I can do now, with her blessing, it's incredible. But I'm infinitely glad I spent all that time sorting it out myself first.

Re: [King's Year 194, winter]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

Well, with all the time you spent, it's not surprising.

[shedding his cloak]

Ah, well. I like to keep busy.

Re: [King's Year 194, winter]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

I know.

Re: [King's Year 194, winter]

[xceptional.insanejournal.com]

I wouldn't have gotten that far without the books you had on the subject, either.

Re: [King's Year 194, winter]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

I did always say they would pay off in the end.

Re: [King's Year 194, winter]

[xceptional.insanejournal.com]

Did you? It must have slipped my mind.

Re: [King's Year 194, winter]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

I'm sure it did.

Re: [King's Year 194, winter]

[xceptional.insanejournal.com]

It must be contagious.

Re: [King's Year 194, winter]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

Quite possibly.

[abruptly wraps an arm around him]

I'm glad I'm back.

[he starts, unused to the contact, but he relaxes quickly enough, smiling back at him]

So am I.

[lets go, pulling off his vambraces.]

So other than the hole in the roof, has anything else broken?

Re: [King's Year 194, winter]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

Your room's fine.

Re: [King's Year 194, winter]

[xceptional.insanejournal.com]

And the rest?

Re: [King's Year 194, winter]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

Mostly fine, I think.

Re: [King's Year 194, winter]

[xceptional.insanejournal.com]

I'll check the place.

Re: [King's Year 194, winter]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

If you like.

Re: [King's Year 194, winter]

[xceptional.insanejournal.com]

I'd rather not come across them later. Get the annoying part out of the way all at once.

Re: [King's Year 194, winter]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

Then I'm going to read for a while.

Re: [King's Year 194, winter]

Enjoy.
