Four knitted scarves

916 Bilko Boulevard, Accidental Phonecall. Unfiltered. Open to housemates

*the phone picks up mid-conversation, as if it's been knocked off the hook by clumsy teenagers Rose's voice comes from not too far.*

I still cannot believe we are doing this. Enjoyable as it might be, I must admit I still have some reservations about it.

Rose, I assure you your reservations are wholly misplaced. I have done this many, many times before, and it has ...almost always resulted in the full enjoyment of all involved parties.

*Rose scoffs a little, but wait, was that a hint of a giggle underneat?* I will give that much to you; you are quite skilled with your hands. I stand here jealous at this discovery...this is really nice though.

*There's the sound of shifting, and Kanaya almost sounds as though she has something in her mouth when she speaks next.* Sweeps of practice have rendered my digital manipulators quite dextrous, yes - and I'm quite pleased to hear that you're finding this to your liking. But as promised, no word of this liason shall ever pass my lips.

If I may ask you to hold as still as possible, Rose? This next part will be rather tight.


While I graciously accepted your request to lend myself to your ways, I must admit I haven't grown to like the fact you are handling me like a rag do-

*Rose's complain is cut as she gasps, and then speaks in a rather mortified tone*

That is...rather tight. My back will be reminding me of this with unforgiving soreness later

*And for her part, Kanaya does sound very apologetic.* I'm quite sorry, but I believe it's for the best to handle the worst of the discomfort at the beginning. I give the full weight of my word that it will be exponentially more agreeable - even satisfying - from this point on.

But please continue to hold still. I would feel very displeased with myself were I to inadvertently scratch you.

So you say. Perhaps it's because you are doing all the work. I feel as if I should probably take the matter into my own hands, but then that would mean you would be but an spectator. Either way one of us is left to watch.

*Rose's tone takes a degree of amusement*A scratch? Not for a lack of effort. I've been holding my breath at every "Hold Still" by now.

I would really rather engage with you directly than to be a mere observer of this flourishing radiance and beauty alike. It simply wouldn't be suitable. And besides, you're certainly a participant rather than a spectator, even if it's a far more passive role than you might prefer. I'm afraid I can't allow you to domineer our interactions every time.

But only a little further, and-- *And then there's a surprised intake of air as somebody notices the displaced phone and moves to hang up. Oops.*

*Somebody hasn't seen the phone yet*

Kanaya? Kanaya Mayram, don't you dare leaving me here without taking proper care of my clothes-

*And so ends the rather strange call*

Partly. Any comments made were strictly relating to the business of fitting a hand-tailored garment, and any other meaning attached to them is purely the result of one's own mind and predilections.

That seems mildly irritating, if it's as common as you seem to be suggesting.

*And she leans back for a moment to get a greater appreciation for the whole... and nods, apparently satisfied, before pinning it in place once more.* Very well, if you're certain. If it's any consolation it does look tremendously fashionable on you.

1994... that is later from a temporal standpoint than this town purports to be, isn't it?

Invariably including that statement you've made just now?

[identity profile] kinpika.livejournal.com 2011-11-15 05:38 am (UTC)(link)
That's right, yeah.

[identity profile] guitarslaying.livejournal.com 2011-11-15 06:33 am (UTC)(link)
Oh so the answer is yes then.

[identity profile] guitarslaying.livejournal.com 2011-11-15 06:34 am (UTC)(link)
Sure does.

Alright, geez, don't try to put me on the menu for Thanksgiving no one wants to be eating crow.

You mean what everyone else initially believed; I knew it had to be something else or y'all woulda hung up and freaked out after talking for two seconds.

Ugh, it is not exciting when everyone is keeping secrets!

...

Measurements?
chastesaw: (Fashionablest Should Be A Word)

[personal profile] chastesaw 2011-11-15 11:43 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, measurements. You were adamant that you wanted to undertake the same activities as Rose Lalonde, and said activities warrant the measuring of body ratios and lengths.

[identity profile] foretastes.livejournal.com 2011-11-16 02:07 pm (UTC)(link)
No way. This sounds gross!

Terezi, do you really think that I am the type of individual who would allow myself to be caught unalive in the midst of actions that others would term "gross"? Let alone while accompanied by Rose Lalonde, even.

It would wreak havoc on my wardrobe.

[identity profile] foretastes.livejournal.com 2011-11-17 04:29 am (UTC)(link)
You just want to know the size of my bulge. I can see right through you!

[Terezi you don't even have a bulge what]

[identity profile] foretastes.livejournal.com 2011-11-17 04:35 am (UTC)(link)
It would help if you weren't so smug about it!

[identity profile] foretastes.livejournal.com 2011-11-17 04:38 am (UTC)(link)
You are both having fun keeping it a secret!

Truly your species is a xenopsychological enigma wrapped in a riddle ensconced in a whole mess of complexes and generally weird stuff.

And as much as it may look attractive on you, Rose, I do need to take the garment myself for final alterations, so yes you may retrieve your clothes. *A pause.* If you could be careful while disrobing, though, I'd be tremendously appreciative.

...maybe I'd better do it.
