Crotch-rocket. A. Christ. On. Y'all can put the words in the necessary order.

General update, for those of you out there that still give a rat's arse: Mostly broke, leaking money like a hole in the side of a bank on skid row. Pub upright, in the black, but it's swiftly strolling down the path and sneaking into a paleish salmon color. Still no progress on new money making scheme, although another pools ticket was bought, just on the off-chance that Lady Luck decides to give me a tongue bath. Still dealing with Señor's little, erm, fits. Building still doing a barbeque impression, and nobody brought coleslaw.

How the hell is it almost July already?

1) Do you need a loan?

2) Do you need someone who can do things like tear down walls and build buildings?

3) I've been away, what's up with the other half?

[h-hollister.livejournal.com]

1) Not unless you can help me shore up a thirty million dollar budget. Castles are expensive.

2) I need that, yes I do. Big ol' time. You volunteering?

3) He's, and I stress this, just fine. It's just been rough since I vanished for three mon...weeks. Gah.

[derek-bliss.livejournal.com]

1) I might have a few ideas.

2) Sure. Just spent a month on one hunt. Something a little relaxing would be nice.

3) Is that his stressing, or yours?

[h-hollister.livejournal.com]

1) I've got a few, too, but there are only so many hours in the day. Hm. What's on that look-alike head of yours?

2) If you're willing, I'm sure I can spring for some beer and pizza on the day of the hard work. I'm a rough carpenter, but I'll help.

3) Little of column A, little of column B.

[derek-bliss.livejournal.com]

1) I was born rich, and it only got worse from there.

2) Where and what do you need?

3) Hmn.

[h-hollister.livejournal.com]

1) What terms are we talking here? Because right now I'm not a very good investment. Just ask my insurance broker.

2) Mainly I need the superficial stuff re-dry-walled and painted. No load-bearing walls were hit, thank all the gods, but it's still ugly.

3) ...Not touching that Hmn with a ten foot pole.

[derek-bliss.livejournal.com]

1) Just tell me what you need; We'll worry about the terms later.

2) Not a problem. Tell me when you're ready for it.

3) S'kay. Not going to push, either.

[h-hollister.livejournal.com]

I'll give you a call. We'll chat. I'm at the pub right now, and seriously up to my proverbial nose in that proverbial 'it.' When I've got some breathing room, I'll let you know.

[derek-bliss.livejournal.com]

Anytime.

You should come to Paragon City and help me punch badguys in the face!

It's a magical adventure land of fun and excitement and joy...and joyness...

[h-hollister.livejournal.com]

I had dinner in Paragon, once. There was a dude with six arms who was our waiter. Really handy.

Don't shoot me for that.

I am feeling rather punchy, recently, but I must at least say that I will not do spandex on threat of smacking you around with my boobs. Which you wouldn't like, I assure you.

[foxitrix.livejournal.com]

I assure you, you'd be surprised at what I would and wouldn't like. And there's so many more options besides Spandex now! This thing, what I'm wearing now? All leather. Pleather, actually. It breathes way better.

Plus I can FLY. Well, float. With occasional jetpack assistance. Also, did I mention that I HAVE A JETPACK. I get to run around and stab people if I think they deserve a good stabbing. I am one Bruce Campbell LMD and one Angelina Jolie LMD away from having the perfect lifestyle.

[h-hollister.livejournal.com]

Dude. I want a jet pack. ._.

Although I've also been considering a vacation in Azeroth since Macs don't support CoH the bastards but instead has WoW.

[foxitrix.livejournal.com]

The jetpack is sweet. And it dispenses free Mentos!

and that blows, since I'm not at all interested in WoW. Oh well, another victim of the digital divide.

Hips... you know I'm here. Hell, I'll buy some of your stuff from you and sell it back when you get flush again, just so you don't feel all weird. Or, hell.... I know you're good for it.

Re: *locked*

[h-hollister.livejournal.com]

Eiko, honey. I already owe you my first, second, third and possibly fourth through eighteenth born children. I...I CAN'T take your money. I just can't. I'd feel like the worst kind of leech. Hell, I already feel like you do all the work in this friendship. :/

I believe the progression to July occurs naturally.

And if you would like a loan, Ruthven and I will be very happy to help you.

Re: [locked]

[h-hollister.livejournal.com]

Hehe. Yes, yes it does, but sometimes it seems to go faster than it ought.

And now I kinda know how people must have felt when I offered THEM money for nothing. :/ It's...not a pleasant feeling. I don't know, Djehuty. It just feels weird and wrong to take loans from my friends.

Re: [locked]

[secretarybird.livejournal.com]

I know. It is a delicate thing. It would give Ruthven and me great contentment to help you, but I do understand the feeling of obligation. I live on offerings from friends and--yes. I understand.

Would you be more comfortable if I offered the services of a law baboon to hunt for fair loans in your universe, and to arrange favorable terms?

Re: [locked]

[h-hollister.livejournal.com]

Heh. I never thought of an offering as a loan before. But I can see the comparison, yes.

The problem is that, in my universe, I'm...well, I'm kind of a tabloid baby. If it got out that I was looking for loans, I'd never hear the end of it. "Pools winner blows through prize in less than two years! Is it drugs?!" :/

I think I need to get out of London.

Re: [locked]

[secretarybird.livejournal.com]

Huu, I see the difficulty, yes! Are you thinking of a long-term relocation?

Re: [locked]

[h-hollister.livejournal.com]

I'd honestly considered moving the flats into the Nexus entirely. Somehow. If it can be done. Snape did it once, but it took a helluvalot of magic to do it, and a blood sacrifice, near as I can tell.

I dunnow. It'd certainly be easier to have all the Nexus weirdness that goes on at the flats to be in the Nexus. But how do we get there from here?

Re: [locked]

[secretarybird.livejournal.com]

The Nexus might suit your circumstances better....huu. Snape, as you say, might have advice. Or Hermes, perhaps? It could be considered a matter of boundaries, and cities, and within his providence.

Re: [locked]

[h-hollister.livejournal.com]

...Ooooooh. I like you. You're smart. :D I'll give Hermes a ringading later.

Re: [locked]

[secretarybird.livejournal.com]

I just hope he agrees with my thinking!

Re: [locked]

[h-hollister.livejournal.com]

I have a feeling he will. After all, tabloids fall under YOUR province, and that's certainly not traditional, si?
