*is overseeing the packing of certain things into boxes and the not-packing of other things into boxes*

*loftily* Oh, hello. Do I know you?

	From: atarince	Date: 05/28/2007 15:59:52

*comes up to you and slings his arm around your neck* *presses a kiss to the top of your head* I missed you too, fucker.

*sits on one of the boxes and looks around curiously* Dare I ask what you're playing at?

	From: tyelcormo	Date: 05/28/2007 16:10:54

*ducks away from you* I'm moving.

*steps aside to let people pass with the boxes and gives out further instructions as to what to do with various pieces of furniture* I'm taking that, yes. Of course. And that. Not that one.

*glances at you* What happened in Delving?

	From: atarince	Date: 05/28/2007 16:14:48

*is completely distracted from all thoughts of announcing his nuptials to you* What the fuck do you mean, you're fucking moving? Himlad is your home, man. What the fuck?

	From: tyelcormo	Date: 05/28/2007 16:19:12

*icily* Not anymore. I'm bored here, Curvo. Hideously, agonizingly bored. *crosses his arms and actually taps one foot* Today would be nice, people.

*turns back to you* *in a patient tone that contrasts oddly with his behavior* What happened in Delving?

	From: atarince	Date: 05/28/2007 16:29:54

Bored?

*shakes his head and stares at you evenly* I got rather drunk last night and married Finduilas.

	From: tyelcormo	Date: 05/28/2007 16:34:40

Bored.

*looks at you sharply* *opens his mouth to speak* *closes it again*

*picks up a large can of gasoline and walks from room to room, splashing its contents liberally throughout the house*

*returns* *blandly* You might not want to stand just there.

	From: atarince	Date: 05/28/2007 16:37:31

*stares at you* Hey, I love arson as much as the next sibling but, Turco, have you lost it completely?

	From: tyelcormo	Date: 05/28/2007 16:42:16

*takes some matches out of his pocket, flicks one alight, and drops it*

*grips your arm firmly and pulls you out of the house* Excuse me? *conversationally* Oh. No. No, I don't think so.

*walks a good distance away and turns to look back at the house* Is she sickeningly rich and influential in this life, then, or are you just a complete idiot?

	From: atarince	Date: 05/28/2007 16:49:27

*cheerfully* She's a whore and I'm an idiot. Are we surprised?

*watches as the fire takes hold of your house* Damn, Turco.

	From: tyelcormo	Date: 05/28/2007 16:54:29

*sits on the hood of one of his cars*

*perfectly calmly, oblivious to the tears pouring down his face* Surprised? *thinks about it awhile* Nothing surprises me.

	From: atarince	Date: 05/28/2007 16:58:56

*sits up next to you, wrapping his arm around your shoulders*

Then you need help, mate.

	From: tyelcormo	Date: 05/28/2007 17:04:01

Why? Because life is full of surprises?

*shoves your arm away, furious* STOP FUCKING TOUCHING ME! WHY THE FUCKING FUCK DOES EVERYONE HAVE TO...fucking— *holds his head in his hands and takes deep gasping breaths between sobs*

	From: atarince	Date: 05/28/2007 17:06:09

*frowns at you and stands up* *walks away from you a little* *turns around and looks at you, seemingly unmoved by the fact you're breaking down in front of him*

*takes his phone out of his pocket* Who do you want me to call, Turco? Nelyo? Cáno? A psychiatrist? Your insurance company?

	From: tyelcormo	Date: 05/28/2007 17:10:20

*takes out a handkerchief and wipes his eyes delicately*

*laughs a little after a moment but doesn't look up* Shut up, Curvo.

	From: atarince	Date: 05/28/2007 17:12:21

You know I'm pathologically incapable of shutting up, mate.

*waits for a moment* What's happened?

	From: tyelcormo	Date: 05/28/2007 17:19:39

*shakes his head* Nothing's happened, Curvo. Nothing.

*continuing as though he hasn't just fallen to pieces and his house isn't burning to ashes in front of him* I bought a place in Ossiriand, near the confluence of Legolin and Gelion. It was orgasmic.

	From: atarince	Date: 05/28/2007 17:23:31

*raises his eyebrows* Orgasmic? What a curious turn of phrase for you to use, Turco.

	From: tyelcormo	Date: 05/28/2007 17:28:36

*sounding abruptly and entirely like himself* Well, it was to do with spending money, which—have you forgotten?—is perhaps my very favorite thing in the world. *finally looks over at you* Perhaps.

	From: atarince	Date: 05/28/2007 17:41:09

*grins at you* Perhaps? You're just full of surprises today.

	From: tyelcormo	Date: 05/28/2007 17:47:00

*stands and walks over to you*

Maybe you don't know me as well as you think. *wraps his arms around you* *sighs* I hate you so much right now it's fairly staggering.

	From: atarince	Date: 05/28/2007 17:48:27

*sighs and embraces you in return, burying his face against your shoulder* That's OK. I still love you more than I love my wife.

	From: tyelcormo	Date: 05/28/2007 17:54:40

*swallows a laugh* Wow. That's really reassuring?

*fairly clings to you* Shall we depart this miserable place? If we stand here much longer we're going to smell like smoke until the end of eternity.

	From: atarince	Date: 05/28/2007 17:57:12

Damn straight it is.

*hugs you a bit tighter before releasing you* Can I drive?

	From: tyelcormo	Date: 05/28/2007 18:01:34

A thousand times no. *gets in the car*





Later. Possibly.

	From: atarince	Date: 05/28/2007 18:06:10

*chuckles* Can I at least choose the music? *slides into the passenger seat and immediately starts to fiddle with the stereo*

	From: tyelcormo	Date: 05/28/2007 18:10:28

*groans* If you even think about reprogramming my presets then you'd best sleep with one eye open tonight. *pulls around the drive and away from the house*

	From: atarince	Date: 05/28/2007 18:13:16

*finally settles on a hard rock station* *adjusts his seat so that he can recline in comfort* *closes his eyes*

Wake me up when we get there, yeah?

	From: tyelcormo	Date: 05/28/2007 18:16:33

*eyeroll* Yes, sir. Whatever you say, sir. *glances over and smiles at you looking so peaceful*

*waits until he knows you're really asleep before switching over to classical*
