[voice] don't say they come to pray to the lord

[bedsidemanners]

I think this month has actually been one of the milder ones, as far as curses go. No spilled secrets or random monsters, just idealistic rainbow-chasers and dirty text messages.

Which isn't nearly as different from the norm as you'd hope.

[and he clears his throat]

I've long since resigned myself to thinking of staying here as an unpaid vacation. I hate to say it, but sometimes I still miss-- not my hours at work so much, but my old office. At least, the desk portion of it. The bed gets depressingly uncreative.

... Gabriel, I trust you've settled in well enough, haven't you?

Maybe you should borrow some else's desk.

['Borrow.']

[bedsidemanners]

Are you volunteering yours?

Mine isn't big enough, but there are a few nice ones in the library.

[bedsidemanners]

It's a tempting offer.

[... but he's still bitter]

[valentineluke]

Glutton for punishment.

[bedsidemanners]

Hardly.

[valentineluke]

There's far better ways to levitate boredom than painting a bulls-eye on yourself.

[beyourarmy]

Wait! Those things flying around killing people, that was mild? [Granted, they posed no threat to HIM, but that's beside the point.] Or was that just not a curse so it doesn't count?

[bedsidemanners]

They came back the next day, so I'd call it mild.

[beyourarmy]

Either that's you being cold again, or the other stuff that happens around here gets that much worse?

[bedsidemanners]

About half the city turned into monsters for a few days once.

[child_radical]

Milder months generally mean a greater headache a month or two later.

[bedsidemanners]

I'd anticipated that. It's too bad.

[child_radical]

Just remember to feign surprise if we're attacked by a shaggy dog-like monster with an insatiable craving for lemon cakes.

[bedsidemanners]

Voice of experience, I hope?

Depends on the type of bed.

[His tastes veer markedly toward the S&M variety.]

[bedsidemanners]

I tend to lean toward canopies.

Wrought iron or wood?

It's been a long time since I've gone furniture shopping.

[shall_yield_us]

Why, Raphael. My doting is your payment.

[bedsidemanners]

It's not nearly enough.

[shall_yield_us]

Better men would bide disagreement.

[hornblower]

. . . Well enough. Thank you for asking, Raphael.

[bedsidemanners]

You're very welcome.

[hornblower]

Where's Michael? I've yet to see him.
