#39 - Plus without the minus

[inthecenterfold]

Okay, I get it. The sphere gets its jollies off by watching a bunch of guys flail around because we've got new parts to deal with. So why the hell didn't it go all the way with mine? This is part of the punishment isn't it?

... Sorry for whatever you saw, bro. Hope the scarring's not permanent.

I'm uh... gonna try to see if I can go to work today... if any of my clothes fit... how the fuck do you even walk like this...

Usually my fighting style involves a lot of jumping and spinning around. So I think I'll be investing in the Sphere's best tape.

[forgottenbaika.livejournal.com]

[ A pause. ]

Tape would hurt; maybe you can just try some cloth? [ She- personally doesn’t know what to do. ]

[holy-androgyny.livejournal.com]

Cloth? How? [No concept of bras in Saiyuki. Just oddly arranged clothing] Like... [he's trying this right now] ARGH THEY KEEP MOVING!

[forgottenbaika.livejournal.com]

You [ A pause. ] You just bind them. I guess [ Pentaps. ] I can help?

[holy-androgyny.livejournal.com]

I'm afraid you would go blind at the sight of my gorgeous body
[A few minutes spent furiously scratching that sentence out]

[forgottenbaika.livejournal.com]

Mine looks better.

[ She can't believe she just wrote that. She will practically rip the paper from how much she scratched that out. ]

[holy-androgyny.livejournal.com]

It's not just about what's on top ♥

[He's like MAKE IT STOOOOOOOOP]

[forgottenbaika.livejournal.com]

[ A long pause. ]

Really now?

[ She dose not want to know what he is talking about. Dangit, this is by far the weirdest thing that has ever happened to her... here. ]

[holy-androgyny.livejournal.com]

We'll just pretend that never happened.

I'd uh... still appreciate some help here. Any embarrassment is worth not dealing with Lin's shit if I don't get to work.

[forgottenbaika.livejournal.com]

Sure. I'll [ A pause. ] help!

Lin? You work in the guard, or something?

[holy-androgyny.livejournal.com]

Yes I'm a full-time Guard again.

[forgottenbaika.livejournal.com]

Is it [ A pause. ] fun?

[ She don’t imagine it being fun, but that was the only question that she really had. ]

I was thinking of joining the Guard.

[holy-androgyny.livejournal.com]

It's not... fun, per se... [see: Lin as my superior]

But it's fulfilling, I guess? [see: Bastet as her boss and mine]]

[forgottenbaika.livejournal.com]

That's good to know! Thank you. [ A pause. ]

So, I'm guessing you live in section four, right?

[holy-androgyny.livejournal.com]

Section 4?! Man I wish. You only get there by invitation.

[forgottenbaika.livejournal.com]

I thought that you would be there! Sorry, that means you're in section 3!

[holy-androgyny.livejournal.com]

Heading that way, yeah. Waiting on my new bro to settle into his job.

[forgottenbaika.livejournal.com]

I guess I can come over, [ A pause. ] and, help you.

[holy-androgyny.livejournal.com]

If you could find some uh... clothes that fit, Kagerou's helping me with the uh... support system.

[forgottenbaika.livejournal.com]

How... big are they?

[holy-androgyny.livejournal.com]

Uhm...

Hand-sized?

[forgottenbaika.livejournal.com]

You... checked?

[holy-androgyny.livejournal.com]

Didn't really have to. Think I'm pretty good at guessing.

Just a question of how to describe it... politely.

[forgottenbaika.livejournal.com]

Well, I'm going to get you anything that fits me, I guess.
