5th Contract - [Video]

[conesoldstober]

What do you think, Sophie? It's not a castle, but I suppose it will just have to do. I got a rather good deal as well.

[The camera spins until Howl's beaming face fills the screen.]

Pavel, you're invited, of course. And ask your lady friend if you like. In fact, we may need to find a few boarders. There are rather more bedrooms than we can fill on our own, and I hate an empty bedroom in a house. It feels like bad luck.

[Howl isn't bothering to filter to this, despite it being directed at one person in particular. You could call it laziness or his desire to show off. More likely a combination of both. He spins it back round to show the house again.]

So how soon do you reckon until you can have us packed up to move?




[ooc: In which Howl is a fickle spendthrift and bought a house.... open video/audio/action from anyone!]

Yes. Which is why I'm the one inviting you to live in it. Do I need to be more clear?

[likeboudica]

No, but— you hardly know me, truly.

[conesoldstober]

You're a friend of Pavel's, and he's a good lad. I have an excess of faith in this being a most complimentary living arrangement.

[likeboudica]

Perhaps I should talk to him about this. [ Because she isn't at all sure whether it would be appropriate— or indeed whether Pavel would want her to live in the same house as him. It certainly is different, and even in the more modern books she has read, living together always signifies a greater commitment than anything that they have done together so far. ]

[conesoldstober]

Keep me in the know, whatever you decide.

[likeboudica]

Yes, of course.
