Shall we take bets on whether or not zombies are the worst thing we'll see this year?

[Horst is lounging on a couch near a fire, a book open and on his chest.]

I realized, with all the new arrivals especially, we have a pool of unusual skills here. Would anyone be willing to teach a few classes? For instance: I could teach...oh, bar tending. Card dealing. Physics and labwork--you know, whatever there is interest for.

The ponies could teach 'Frolicking 101'. The angels could teach 'Offending Someone in Two Words or Less'.



[PRIVATE to RACHEL]

Have you done opera at all?

[He could have had her asking the network about chicken grooming. As it is, Usagi puffs out a sigh.]

I thought it was too unbelievable.

Well you could! They molt. They stink.

[Video]

[buntails.livejournal.com]

Ewww. If it's going to stink, I don't want to do it!

[alethalweapon.livejournal.com]

I doubt anyone would take that bet.

[Let's face it. Killua only got one thing out of this entire video.]

Card dealing?

[No, she's not stalking your posts, why do you ask?]

You ran into Lucifer?

...Are you alright?

[And sheisnotbeingoverprotectiveshutup.]

I'm fine. It wasn't so much a run-in as it was me...stalking him. A bit. Just to see what he had to say about my brother, if anything.

[A soft snort.] Just jinx it, why don't you?

...stalking him? [Deep breath, Raven. Deep breath.] You know that the exact opposite to "avoiding" him, right?

[A pause. A bit more quietly.] ...So what did you find out?

[A guilty look.] Most of it was done over the network. But I found nothing at all. I can only hope it means he's no longer interested in Johannes.

It's worth an ask. [Little shrug.]

[law-of-reason.livejournal.com]

Even if you had useful skills, do you think there's much of anyone here worth teaching?

[Video]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

That's why you bathe and groom them! So they smell like daffodils and lollipops.

[Video]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

Shh, I'm sharing my good fortune. No jinxing here.

[Video]

[buntails.livejournal.com]

I want candy! [Suggestible? You bet. Usagi clasped her hands together as though asking for some.]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

I was hoping you'd attend a class or two.

[video]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

Are you any good or would you be one of my lowly students?

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

Their loss! Think of the payout.

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

Nothing better? You wound me! It's a fantastic little bar, and it's sure to draw the right crowd.

[That gets an admiring little grin]

Where did you say you're from?

[Same Filter]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

[He smiles, gives her a small sheepish wave of his hand]

I asked you because I know you'll handle the material better than anyone here. A lot of people think opera is just about shattering glass with the high C; but it's about the passion that goes into it. Just like any performance, you know?

[video]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

Perhaps you'd be willing to trade for a bottle or two?

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

Schooling? Women? Alcohol? You're wrong on all counts.

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

[Facepalm. He loves you, Usagi.] No, that's not--

Do you know how to make it?

video

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

I'll find out.

...You aren't alone, are you? [For the death, he means. Dying alone is terrifying.]
