lastvoyages Twenty-third vision (voice+spam for Level 2 common room)
Hello loves! Sorry on the short notice but I had a lot to sort out. Tonight I'll be setting up for movies in the fore lounge on Level 2. We'll be watching a Tim Burton mini marathon. I'll be playing Nightmare Before Christmas, Frankenweenie, and Corpse Bride. I'll be supplying drinks and munchies. We'll start around nine. I would love it if someone helped me clean up after.

Anyone need anything?

If you want over for chicken time beforehand, please come tap on my door. I'm sure they'd like to see you.
[private to Scrad and Charlie]
Your game catalog's in. I also asked for a pile of gaming magazines. Pop by when you can. How are you doing?

Call it whistling in the dark. But she promised Mariska she would do a showing and she aims to keep it, even if there are some bad things going on. Perhaps people will take the opportunity to relax a little.
She sets up the Blu-Ray and sets out a couple of large bowls of popcorn, a snack plate of steak tartare and some glasses of lemonade. Anything else she plans to pop back into the pub for--literally.

[Asks Charlie.
No, 'sorry' has not occurred to them. No one has ever told them to say it.]
[Private]
Say that someone wrongs you. Say for example that someone does to you what you did to Prefect. Think about and discuss it--what would make you feel better and not be so angry at the person who did that? Would there be something they could say or do that would help?
[Private]
[Scrad suggests.]
Fruit basket?
[Says Charlie.]
[Private]
[Private]
Depends...how they said it.
[Scrad says.]
[Private]
[She make a mental note about the fruit basket. Perhaps the boys just like fruit that much.]
[Private]
Yeah, sorry's not good enough.
[Scrad muses.]
[Private]
Like, say I quit one of your video games and accidentally erased one of your saves. It's a little thing by comparison, but you still do the same basic things.
You acknowledge you did wrong, you admit you feel bad about it, you promise you won't do it again, and you ask if there's something you can do to make up for it. Since not everyone likes fruit baskets. It's awkward and difficult, especially at first, but...well, usually it works pretty well. Would that work for you if I did you wrong?
[Private]
[Scrad says.]
[Private]
[She sighs.]
Sorry. The truth is that when I read your file I get more angry at other people in your life than I do with you. I know, I'm a bit of a mum.
