James, at The Gig. Even better?

Of course it was even better!

She smiled at him. "Hello, James."

"Helen, hi!" he exclaimed.

"You seem far more pleased than you generally do on Thursdays," she teased.

"I will be free of that cursed class, and that brings me joy," he stated almost solemnky.

[identity profile] elephantgadget.livejournal.com 2010-12-17 04:57 pm (UTC)(link)
"No doubt," she said with a smile. "Try not to schedule an unpleasant class for Thursdays next semester."

[identity profile] squire-hand.livejournal.com 2010-12-17 08:42 pm (UTC)(link)
"So you are continuing on here for Thursdays?"

[identity profile] elephantgadget.livejournal.com 2010-12-18 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
"I see no reason why I shouldn't," she said with a shrug. "Unless the owner decides she doesn't want me anymore."

[identity profile] squire-hand.livejournal.com 2010-12-18 04:18 am (UTC)(link)
"I shall keep Thursdays free." He grinned.

[identity profile] elephantgadget.livejournal.com 2010-12-18 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
"Well, the evenigs at least," she said with a smile. "I still have to actually work all day. Just... don't pick a class that always leaves you unhappy."

"Perhaps we can compare schedules," he prompted.

He would advise anyone away from taking a class from Professor Coif.

"We could," she agreed, though honestly, she'd rather enjoyed her class with Professor Skywalker.

"Make sure Thursdays are free, and every other day."

They could concentrate their classes on the same day!

She laughed. "Let's not get too crazy. I need to make sure I have everything I need for graduation. Everything on one day might not work out."

[identity profile] squire-hand.livejournal.com 2010-12-20 01:46 am (UTC)(link)
"Ah, yes, graduation. Do to have a vocation in mind?" he asked.

[identity profile] elephantgadget.livejournal.com 2010-12-20 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
She shook her head. "No. I don't know. I... I don't think I can go home, so... maybe I'll be able to find a way to study here. Perhaps something to do with animals. Or... languages or... No. I don't know."

He grinned. "You will always have a job with either," he stated.

[identity profile] elephantgadget.livejournal.com 2010-12-20 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
"Thank you," she said, blushing. "I suppose we'll see."

[identity profile] squire-hand.livejournal.com 2010-12-20 01:59 am (UTC)(link)
His grin slipped a mOment. "I could see what we have available back in the Kingdom if you do not have somewhere in mind when you leAve the island."

"I may consider that," she said thoughtfully. "Though from what you have said, I think I would miss my creature comforts there."

[identity profile] squire-hand.livejournal.com 2010-12-20 12:37 pm (UTC)(link)
"True," he said with a chuckle. "You would have to get used to candles instead of electrical lights, and we do not have radio."

[identity profile] elephantgadget.livejournal.com 2010-12-20 03:16 pm (UTC)(link)
She nodded. "And running water."

[identity profile] squire-hand.livejournal.com 2010-12-22 04:41 am (UTC)(link)
"Ah, yes, I can't forget that. Much easier that way. Both cold and hot. Truly a marvel."

[identity profile] elephantgadget.livejournal.com 2010-12-22 01:34 pm (UTC)(link)
"Oh yes, and very much appreciated," she agreed.

[identity profile] squire-hand.livejournal.com 2010-12-22 11:14 pm (UTC)(link)
He sighed. "I will miss that, back in Krondor. I might be able to convince a magician or a blacksmith to work with a cistern, but it will not be the same."

[identity profile] elephantgadget.livejournal.com 2010-12-22 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
She nodded. "It will be hard for you to go back to that, I imagine."

Not thinking about when one of them would have to leave.

Not. Thinking. About. It.

He had to go back. If only to make sure the city had not fallen down...or anyone had discovered his caches around the city.

"It's a luxury here," he said with a grin, "but there is luxury back home. A nice soft bed is a wondrous thing after sleeping on the ground for weeks."

"Oh, I know that well," she said with a smile. "Or a warm meal!"

[identity profile] squire-hand.livejournal.com 2010-12-23 12:00 am (UTC)(link)
"Even a cold meal after eating trail rations," he said with a smile. "I am not suited for the life of a farmer or a hunter."

[night out, phone doesn't work with LJ well anymore. e-mail or sp?]

[identity profile] elephantgadget.livejournal.com 2010-12-23 02:47 am (UTC)(link)
"Nor am I," she said with a smile.


[ooc: I'm off to bed, so sp will have to do or we can fade if you want.]

[Fade is fine with me!]
