077 - Unicorn rides lead to something similar to post-coital AWWWKWARDNESS

[major_west]

All things considered, I really enjoyed that port. I believe it's our first without a casualty, horrible curse, great disaster... etc.

But I honestly can't believe that I took a ride on a unicorn.

Congratulations, we've all managed to overcome our innate desires to kill and destroy for one entire week.


[Private to Billy]
I've decided to return to my room, so... Thank you for your hospitality.

[OOC: West, being neurotic and pulling away for no discernible reason? LOLOL SAY IT AIN'T SO. And yeah, he doesn't know about whatever deaths might've happened in the port. AND STRIKES ARE CERTAINLY READABLE IF YOU TRY]

Uhh...

I've just never really been in a relationship before...

Private

[major-west.livejournal.com]

Oh.

I didn't mean to-- er, that is, I didn't want to make things... uncomfortable. I was just curious.

Private - It's totally uncomfortable!

[my-freeze-ray.livejournal.com]

It's not uncomfortable!

I mean, like... I know it's kind of pathetic, but... yeah. I was never really that close with anyone before.

Private - DDDD:

[major-west.livejournal.com]

It isn't pathetic. Sexual experience shouldn't be used as the measure of a man, and...

Sorry. It isn't my place to ask.

Private - He's totally kind of embarrassed.

[my-freeze-ray.livejournal.com]

It's totally your place!

There's no one here I'd be happier discussing this with. You're my best friend West, I don't mind you knowing at all!

... Just don't tell anyone else, kay?

Private - So's West :c

[major-west.livejournal.com]

I'm fairly certain everybody believes you're getting regular attention, anyway, so your secret's safe with me.

Did you just try to ease my discomfort over my virginity with the fact that everyone thinks you're fucking me?

Private

[major-west.livejournal.com]

Alright, so I'm terrible at this.

Private

[my-freeze-ray.livejournal.com]

Yeah, you are!

Private

[major-west.livejournal.com]

Well, I could be worse, if I wanted to.

Private

[my-freeze-ray.livejournal.com]

See, now I have to wonder what you could do that would be worse than the "Don't worry! Everyone thinks we're doing it!" method of reassurace...

Private

[major-west.livejournal.com]

"Don't worry, everybody thinks I'm shagging you to pay for my room and board."

Private

[my-freeze-ray.livejournal.com]

Is this why you thought now was the time to move back to your room?

Private

[major-west.livejournal.com]

No, it's...

I'm a mess and all, and I really am not an ideal guest and--


And you were joking just now and I made an complete fool of myself, didn't I?

Private

[my-freeze-ray.livejournal.com]

Yeah, you made a complete fool of yourself, and you were wrong.

You're the best guest ever. Obviously.

Private

[major-west.livejournal.com]

You only say that because I clean up after you.

Private

[my-freeze-ray.livejournal.com]

Hey, cleaning up after me is what makes you the best guest ever!

Private

[major-west.livejournal.com]

You say that now, but just wait until I alphabetise your workbench.

Private

[my-freeze-ray.livejournal.com]

How will I find my screwdrivers?

Private

[major-west.livejournal.com]

Simple. They'll be beside the--

...

To be perfectly honest, I don't know what half of the things on your workbench are. I assume if I touch anything there, the Barge will explode.

Private

[my-freeze-ray.livejournal.com]

Well, that is how science works...

Private

[major-west.livejournal.com]

Particularly when you have a PhD in Horribleness?

Private

[my-freeze-ray.livejournal.com]

And a BA in evil studies!
