Happy St. Patrick's day, everybody.

Half off Guinness at the pub tonight, gang. It's gonna get crowded over there, though, heads up. Which means I am busy busy busy aaaak send help.

...I'm taking tomorrow off.

And, no, we will not be serving any green beer. :P

hmmm.

I'm wondering if I should rent out the place one night soon for a girl's night only. Just let us have one night to relax. Eat, drink and be merry.

I would SO be into that. Idea approved, and you don't even have to rent the place out. :D

So... let's see.

* me
* you
* Becky
* Claire
* Dez
* Trixie
* Tita
* Elysse
* Liz

Who else to invite along?

....you know I'm trying to ponder the idea of Henry and Leon and Ramon sitting there playing Go Fish and it's just not coming to my mind. Because if this is a Girl's Night Out, men can't come along, no matter how wonderful their hair is.

Although I'm wondering if we should make exceptions for those who, ah, take advantage of Nexus LOL to BECOME ladies for this particular night.

I dare you to suggest to Claire that we do that to Leon.

Also, Terry needs to be invited, if I forgot to mention before.

Ingrid is an associate of Leon's, she works with him.

...Also, Ramon and Leon should not be playing Go Fish together.

It would not end well at all.

Date: 2006-03-17 06:44 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] h-hollister.livejournal.com
Because you KNOW it would end up with accusations of cheating, and then Leon will remind Ramon about everything that went down in that village, and then Ramon will remind Leon about the whole "YOU KILLED ME" thing... and then my pub's trashed and I've got a pissed off zombie to deal with.

I'll pass. ;)

As in 'knows the rules' and 'can understand the concept of politely asking if the other players have the cards he seeks' and 'not shoot the other players'.

This was intended to be an insult to his intelligence since I'm a bitter little bastard like that.

You know, I shouldn't be smirking at this. I should be waggling my finger at you for being so pissy.

Okay, okay. But all joking aside...?

Sometimes...I wonder if I should...I don't know...apologize to Mr. Kennedy. Or at least thank him for what he did back when Wesker had me. I never properly thanked him. I thanked Claire, and that was difficult enough...But never Leon...

...And I should also tell him that I did indeed go see what my master had in those labs, like he asked me to.

But 1) gaaaaah, what a swallowing of pride that would require, 2) I doubt he'd even want to hear anything I'd have to say, let alone apologies or thanks, which I'm sure he'd think wouldn't be sincere and 3) what are the odds of him in fact shooting me should I do that?

Ugh, I feel annoyed all over just thinking about it. But-...

I think you should, actually.

In fact, I think that would be a very good thing for you to do. Consider it part of your twelve step program. Eventually, yeah, you have to apologize to people you wronged, including Leon AND Claire AND Ashley. And anybody else who might have been hurt by your actions.

Whether or not he accepts it is up to him, and there's not a thing you can do about that. If he won't, well, you tried, and that's the important part.

But I think he might very well surprise you. (And I assume you'd be thanking him for the whole rescue thing, eh? Confirm/Deny?)

As for your third point, well... there's a simple solution to that: Do so in the Nexus.

I've been keeping a VERY sharp eye on the place, and Wesker appears to have wandered off again. So. I'm going to tentatively say 'thumbs up' on you heading back there. However. I do request that you stick close to other people, don't wander in there alone, and stick equally close to the portal that leads back here. If you need to make a run for it, he won't be able to follow you, Severus took care of that.

Sound good?

Still. I mean, it'd be hard to take that sort of thing at face value and accept it wholeheartedly, wouldn't it? "Oh, sorry about that entire ordeal with kidnapping the American president's daughter and trying to kill you, it was nothing personal." I...don't think that's going to quite cover any sort of any animosity or hard feelings. On either side of this.

And how much would you like to wager that if I did in fact attempt to apologize, he'd just throw it back in my face indignantly, say that it wasn't good enough, that I deserve to have far more grevious punishment exacted and that my apology is, frankly, worthless?

...Ugh, no, no, maybe I don't want to do this. Not after that scenario. And...you know he'd want to hear it from my mouth that Lord Saddler is-...is ...and, I'm sorry, Hippolyta, but I-I just don't feel comfortable or right yet defaming his name. I just-...Nnngh.

...And yes, the thanks would be for that time he and Claire and Eiko got me out of those labs. As said, I never...really did so...Thanked him, I mean...

But...uhm, si, I suppose if this goes underway, those conditions sound about right. Being in the Nexus and all, I mean. Hopefully, Wesker is, si, more distracted with other matters. M-Maybe he won't even bother with me anymore...I g-greatly doubt that, but I guess you never know.

Well if you word it like that, of COURSE he won't accept it. Because it was personal, you doink.

Look, a big part of getting him to maybe accept it would be to stop taking digs at him like you just did. Believe me, I know the temptation to bitch. I LIVE the temptation to bitch. If you want this over with, YOU have to make the first move. Up to and including knocking off the snide comments.

As for the bit about Saddler... honey, you are going to have to. Because the words are important. In fact, I think it'd be a good idea to drop that "Lord" from his name. He is not your lord anymore.

This is part of it, Ramon. You're going to have to do it eventually. I'm not trying to push you, except that I totally am. Get angry with me, I'll live. Making consessions like that, refusing to drop his honorifics and not denounce him along with his religion is just going to keep you where you don't want to be.

And you know I'm right.

Anyway. Lecture over. I am TOTALLY NUTSO SWAMPED here at the pub. I might not be home until late. Laaaaate. Like, three or four in the morning late.

...And I might be just a weeeeee bit drunk. >_>

So, yeah, have fun in the Nexus. Just be careful.

No, really, Hippolyta. I need to know why avoiding him is so important. You see, I know him. He's a right awful bastard who made it his business to nose about in my affairs with Anna when she was still living and is more or less a person who enjoys spreading vicious rumors. It's his job to do so. I mean, if this is just about him finding out about, well, you and I, then yes, I had every intention of avoiding him.

...Please tell me that's all this is about.

How long has he been under Umbrella's employment? What do you think the odds are of him having something to do with my first capture?!?

CHILL OUT. RIGHT NOW!

I'd gathered you were pissed, yeah. I'm observant like that.

I don't know. I only know what I've been told, which is that Wesker is using Baofu to gather intelligence on Leon, Claire, somebody named Ada, and a couple other of people.

NOTHING was mentioned about you. And my source would have said if you were on his dossiers.

...And that you just used human as an insult doesn't exactly give me warm fuzzies, thanks.

Now. You will NOT let on that you know ANY of this. Claire and Leon would have my head on a platter for slipping you this heads up. You will smegging well RELAX, you hear me?

All right. Calming down. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have gotten so angry right away. I just-...That man has always been a perpetual thorn in my side, but in more annoying than dangerous ones. And now to think that maybe, all along, he's been playing it that way and simply gathering intelligence for Umbrella...?

I won't breathe a word of this to anyone. But thank you for telling me. I'm certainly thankful to know this information. What with the possibility of him pestering me again should I see him in the Nexus, now I know he may have ulterior motives to his ulterior motives.

...And again, I'm sorry for my...outburst there. Especially the 'human' bit. That was-...That was wrong of me. I didn't entirely mean it that way, but...si. I apologize.

Apology accepted.

Look, I know, babe. I completely understand. Believe me, when I first found out, I just wanted to stomp up to him and kick his arse to Saturn. And I think I've exchanged a grand total of three words with the smegger. ....although I think I bummed him a smoke once. ANYWAY.

This is a delicate situation. You and I BOTH have to act, when in public, as if we're only passing acquaintences. I can't appear over-protective or get up in anybody's grill over you, and vice versa. Otherwise there might be double consequences. And while you and I become grist for the gossip mill would suck... having Wesker figure out you lived with me would be WAY worse.

So keep your temper, hmm?

And I'm sorry for losing my temper as well. I have a short fuse most of the time, I'm afraid. I...hope I didn't scare you or anything. I mean-...
