Lock This Topic Too! (By Next New Year's Day!!!)

[shisteer of nothing much]

I know, but it's plausible that you might want an afternoon nap before I get on tomorrow morning.

[Booklover]

I doubt it.

[lass of something much]

Teenager! How could you stoop so low, Lass? You should be ashamed of yourself! (In other words, "Goodnight, dear sister. I'm going to bed and you probably should too. Don't make Corn angry.")

Goodnight to Booklover also.

[shisteer of nothing much]

Yeah, I do too, but it might happen. You could be reading a book in a tree with the sky above a beautiful, clear blue, the sun shining down through the leaves and warming your back, the chuckle of a nearby brook harmonising with the delicate sound of birdsong. You put the book down and look around at the scenery, breathing in the fresh air as your eyelids slowly droop and your chest rises and falls in peaceful slumber.

Than you wake up and find MONSTERS chewing your legs.

[lass of something much]

Heh, nice.

[Booklover]

I doubt it.

[shisteer of nothing much]

No decent feedback on my beautiful description? Such disappointment.

[Booklover]

Because there is no need for praise, when it is so obviously wonderful. Apart from the fact that it's so unlikely, for many reasons.

[shisteer of nothing much]

Ah, fair enough then.

[Booklover]

I look forward to reading more of your brilliant work in future.

[shisteer of nothing much]

Glad to hear it.

[Booklover]

Although it may be a while before I do.

Why?

[Booklover]

Why what?

[shisteer of nothing much]

Although it may be a while before I do.

Fair enough. Maybe, by the time you get 'round to it, I would have had time to take it all down, edit it soundly and re-post it.
