Quietly. The Owl and the Pussycat...

Went to sea. In a beautiful pea green boat.

Ooo. You are good at this!

[identity profile] guarddevil.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
That's actually all I know of that one.

[identity profile] questionorigin.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
I quoted part of it to the Bat last time we ran into one another.

[identity profile] questionorigin.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
Well, considering I kissed him and quoted the line "O let us be married, too long have we tarried," he just sort of stared after me while I skipped off and let him deal with the goons I left behind!

She is way too pleased with this.

*chuckles* I imagine that would be a little weird when he's not an owl and you're not a pussy-cat.

[identity profile] questionorigin.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
Bat, owl.. Both fly, both are nocturnal! Close enough!

[identity profile] guarddevil.livejournal.com 2008-10-06 04:42 am (UTC)(link)
True, and they both eat bugs. So.

Went to sea in a beautiful pea green boat?

I had stuff to deal with- Sorry I haven't been around.

[identity profile] questionorigin.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
Y'haven't missed much. Just a minor breakdown last night, but.. I'm good.

[identity profile] elfcross.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
You sure? I could have left you a message or something, I guess.

[identity profile] questionorigin.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sure. It was just.. a bad night. I understand things coming up.

[identity profile] elfcross.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
What happened? Why are you spouting poetry?

Locked

[identity profile] questionorigin.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
...
It's a nursery rhyme. Not poetry. Technically.

It's... a signature, y'know?

Re: Locked

[identity profile] elfcross.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 03:53 am (UTC)(link)
True... Ok, makes sense.

So what was this meltdown about?

Re: Locked

[identity profile] questionorigin.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
I... I got my question answered...

Re: Locked

[identity profile] elfcross.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 03:58 am (UTC)(link)
Oh.

What are you doing about it, or are you still processing?

Re: Locked

[identity profile] questionorigin.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
I know I have to tell my dad. He deserves to know. But... God. I don't want to tell him.

Re: Locked

[identity profile] elfcross.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 04:03 am (UTC)(link)
Do you think he has any suspicions? How will he react?

Re: Locked

[identity profile] questionorigin.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 04:05 am (UTC)(link)
I don't think he does. And how will he react? It will be a good reaction if he doesn't shoot me then shoot my mother.

Re: Locked

[identity profile] elfcross.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 04:08 am (UTC)(link)
... He deserves to know, but I don't want you to get shot.

Re: Locked

[identity profile] questionorigin.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 04:10 am (UTC)(link)
I'm going to destroy his world by telling him. Whatever his reaction, I deserve it.

Re: Locked

[identity profile] elfcross.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
You? You didn't ask to be born.

Re: Locked

[identity profile] questionorigin.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 04:13 am (UTC)(link)
I'm still going to be the one telling him. And... Crane... God. Crane is the one person he hates. This.. this'll kill him.

Re: Locked

[identity profile] elfcross.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 04:19 am (UTC)(link)
It's got the potential to get big and nasty, considering who they are.

When are you going to tell him?

Re: Locked

[identity profile] questionorigin.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 04:21 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, it will be. Might as well be the end of the world..

I don't know. I have to get up the nerve.

Re: Locked

[identity profile] elfcross.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 04:29 am (UTC)(link)
Ok, if you want a last fun night out, let me know... and I might have a safe place for you to crash until they stop trying to kill each other.

Re: Locked

[identity profile] questionorigin.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 04:32 am (UTC)(link)
I'll weather the storm. It's the least I can do.

Re: Locked

[identity profile] questionorigin.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 04:40 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you for the offer, though.

Re: Locked

[identity profile] elfcross.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 04:50 am (UTC)(link)
You're my friend, it always stands.

Re: Locked

[identity profile] questionorigin.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
I may need somewhere to collapse once it's all done.

I... broke up with Dick. Well. Not really. We were never dating. But.

Re: Locked

[identity profile] elfcross.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 04:57 am (UTC)(link)
What happened with Dick?

Re: Locked

[identity profile] questionorigin.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 05:06 am (UTC)(link)
I don't want him involved in all of this.

Re: Locked

[identity profile] elfcross.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 05:10 am (UTC)(link)
After the dust settles, are you going to see if you two can start what you had again?

Re: Locked

[identity profile] questionorigin.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 05:15 am (UTC)(link)
No.

The only way the dust is ever going to settle is if all three of the end up dead, and... I don't want that. Even then...

In a way... I'm sort of scared. That I'll... end up like him. Like Crane.

Re: Locked

[identity profile] elfcross.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 05:21 am (UTC)(link)
So, what are you going to do so you don't end up like him?

Re: Locked

[identity profile] elfcross.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 05:29 am (UTC)(link)
Figure it out, and do it. I don't think that you will, but people do unexpected things all of the time.

Re: Locked

[identity profile] questionorigin.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 05:31 am (UTC)(link)
I should do what my mom did.. and what my.. Can I still call him my dad? He probably won't like that once he knows.. but.. What they did. Go into law. Into prosecution. Try to help this city rather than destroy it..

Re: Locked

[identity profile] elfcross.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 05:33 am (UTC)(link)
If that's what you want to do, then do it.
