Water damage.

Water damage everywhere.

Clean clean clean clean. It would have been nice to get a warning. Water can do damage to delicate equipment. It made a mess of everything, nothing is in order, everything is in a mess.

Clean clean clean.

After I finish cleaning this room I am installing better drainage in the garage. I am not even finished with soundproofing. So much to do.

Are you better? Or are you dead?

So you want me to keep you a secret?

[worksmart.livejournal.com]

No. I think there's a difference between that and sharing things I've told you.

PRIVATE ][

[synanthrope]

Are you upset?

PRIVATE ][

[worksmart.livejournal.com]

I was annoyed.

PRIVATE ][

[synanthrope]

And now you're not?

PRIVATE ][

[worksmart.livejournal.com]

Now it doesn't matter much.

PRIVATE ][

[synanthrope]

Then what's the problem?

PRIVATE ][

[worksmart.livejournal.com]

I'd like not to be put in the same situation again. Is there a problem with that?

PRIVATE ][

[synanthrope]

I'll send Mouse.

PRIVATE ][

[worksmart.livejournal.com]

You know that's not what I mean.

PRIVATE ][

[synanthrope]

Yes, I do.

PRIVATE ][

[worksmart.livejournal.com]

And is that okay?

PRIVATE ][

[synanthrope]

It's fine.

PRIVATE ][

[worksmart.livejournal.com]

Good. Still coming by?

PRIVATE ][

[synanthrope]

I'll wear especially high heels.

PRIVATE ][

[worksmart.livejournal.com]

They'll send you out for wrecking the floor polish. See you soon.

[She didn't bring flowers - she brought a book of logic puzzles instead. She's dressed warmly, but her heeled boots are very high]

You should really consider a room with a better view.

[They'll be more appreciated. He's dressed, shirt open to accommodate the occasional rehooking of the ECG.]

I don't plan on being here long enough to get bored.

[She hands him the book and looks around a bit before she sits down]

Do you have a choice?

ACTION ][

[worksmart.livejournal.com]

If I want to piss my boss off more, yep.

ACTION ][

[synanthrope]

It's better to be the boss.

[Chase screws his nose up at that.]

My insurance premiums are high enough.

[She almost laughs, and from her pocket she pulls out a clockwork shark the size of her palm]

Not something I worry about, particularly.

Here.

ACTION ][

Have you ever seen hospital bosses? They don't have lives. Not something I'm interested in.

[He holds out his larger palm for it, surprised, then carefully starts winding.]

What's this for?

ACTION ][

[synanthrope]

[Once he winds it, the shark's tail moves and it chomps, rolling on tiny wheels]

It's a paper shredder. Not efficient, but I think you might appreciate it.
