May. 3rd, 2014 01:33 amHow're you recovering? I was still a bit giddy all through this morning, but thankfully I'd settled down by the time my shift rolled around.
I'm just back from Bill's. We had a very sad and frustrating whinge about Percy being a prat, and then after I told him about yesterday (and you were right, I'm glad I told him) he saw the absurdity immediately and we spent the next hour laughing on and off.
He says hullo, by the way. And he really was all right with things. I was worried, you know, because of his crush on you, but he's moved past that; he said he was happy for us both and I know he meant it. And then we had a nice long talk about him and Rachel Lamont, I mean Brodie, and I tried to be all brotherly and give him advice about how to handle it when your girlfriend is also seeing somebody you can't stand. Well, I mean, I've never dated somebody who was also sleeping with an evil sociopath who kills people for fun, but there was that time I was dating Becky Spring and she was also dating Thomas Evan, that berk, and I think I learned some stuff from it, so I tried to give him some useful advice.
Oh, and I forgot to tell you yesterday -- well, we were busy -- but Dree and Em say hullo too, and thank you for the jam you sent back with me on Wednesday, and Dree said that if I expect babysitting, it'll have to wait until the kid's out of diapers and has a personality. (And Em says better us than them.) I mean, I just told them about the baby part, not the "using ritual sex magic to try to overthrow the Lord Protector" part, obviously, but they both thought it was very sweet of me to offer. And Dree says that when you get tired of me, you should come up and visit again and you can have girl talk. (She's really bad at girl talk, just as a warning. It'll probably turn into dragon talk instead. But you're not the girl talk type, either, so that's all right.)
