Well, goddammit.

I've spent like a year and a half working for Stark, minding my own business, staying out of trouble, and letting pretty much everyone that works around me believe that I was a local just like them. Nobody ever had any idea that I was an 'import,' and I was fine with that. I pass for normal just fine. But not anymore. Dammit, I don't even know why, but one of the secretaries was hassling me about a work party for Christmas and I just up and blurted it out. That I'm not even from here.

Dammit!

At least it got her off my back. Not the import thing, the whole diatribe about why I don't want any part of those plans and get that damn mini-tree off the empty desk thank you very much. I might not have liked Weaz by the time he got ported out of here but at least I can keep his desk from being the site of any stupid trees.

....and why the hell am I even bothering to tell you people this?


((ooc: yep, truth bug))

I only was going to ask you to come to the party. But since I put up the tree... It wouldn't fit well in my room. That was the only place to put it. And I really like the tree

[hackeralastair]

Bakura.

[sigh]

It's because I care about you that I haven't tried to set the tree on fire.

And by setting the tree on fire I mean asking Kyosuke to do it with his power.

[shiromadoushi]

[[a soft laugh]]

It'd smell pretty bad if you did.

[hackeralastair]

[oh good, honesty wins in the end]

Yeah, it would.

So...well. Shit. I'm sorry all that came out. I never meant to hurt you.

[shiromadoushi]

I know. It's all right, I'm not mad.

[hackeralastair]

I know I'm a jerk but I don't like hearing you say it.

[shiromadoushi]

You normally aren't one to me. I didn't mean to call you one either.

[[gives a small laugh]] I'm normally the one saying you aren't one. Funny how that is...

[hackeralastair]

Yeah. Funny.

We're okay, then?

[shiromadoushi]

Un. We're okay.

[hackeralastair]

Okay.

I'm uh...gonna go find Kyosuke now I think.

[shiromadoushi]

I'll go find my headphones then.

[[ack he REALLY didn't mean to say that. Maybe Alastair won't realize what he just implied.]]

[hackeralastair]

[HURK]

Th-that's not what I meant!

[shiromadoushi]

Aa-- I didn't-- I mean---

[[oh god foot in mouth SO BAD]]

[hackeralastair]

[shiromadoushi]
