Angie? Is there a reason that you were up past 4AM? And the whole thing with Warren and admiring Emma Watson was just me being silly. You know that, right? You want to do something besides sit around on the computer?

What are they like? Your siblings, I mean. Which reminds me, you get to meet Jean-Phileppe when you visit. I apoligize in advance for that.
I think that your new improved lack-of-guilt about being 'active' is amusing. You are silly sometimes, but I love you.
Care to come with me when I try to see if having someone to play off of will help? I volunteered myself in a massive fit of good will and generosity. (What on EARTH was I thinking?)

*shrugs* They're siblings. I have two sisters. Gwen is a jock, Stephanie is a bop. That's how I generally sum them up. :) They're both a lot more popular than I think of myself as. In with the "in crowd", and so forth. They're not bad, but growing up with two sisters wasn't always fun.
And maybe I'm overcompensating just a bit, but I'm really enjoying not feeling guilty about it. It feels nice to think about things, and do things, and not beat myself up about it.
And I thought part of the reason you loved me was _because_ I am silly. ;-)
And I suppose I could do that. Be all supportive and junk. And you were being a nice person who I love very much? :) We can negotiate rewards for your generosity, if you'd like.

Jock? Bop? What are these terms?
Have your sisters been told about the leather pants and earring? I think they need to know.
I am -not- complaining. Not one little bit. I like you like this. And yes, one of the reasons I love you is because you are silly.
Ooh. Rewards?

Subject: Continuing your American slang lessons...
A jock is an athlete, someone who plays sports a lot. Sometimes the term can be derogatory, as athletes sometimes have a reputation for not being very smart. But Gwen works very hard at school, and she's smarter than she thinks. She just has always compared herself to me, I think, and thinks she's not as smart because things don't come as easily to her. But I envy the fact that she actually knows how to study effectively. I need to learn that.
A bop is...well, you've watched Buffy, right? Think Cordelia's little group. Harmony, especially. Vapid, shallow, concerned with clothes, often a cheerleader (which Stephie is), and so forth. Can be very highly annoying. But Stephie's not a _bad_ person, just annoyingly vapid and obsessed with clothes.
And no, neither my sisters nor my parents have been told about the leather pants. I did tell my mom about the earring. She had an initial wiggins, but when I explained it was at the behest of my beautiful girlfriend, she chuckled and said as long as it was my decision and I like it.
And I didn't think you would complain. *grin* Am feeling a bit frisky today.
Yes. Rewards. Would you like to open the negotiations? :)

Yes, you do, because insane Doug locked to his computer for three weeks at exams is distressing. Even if it was half brought on by the bugs.
The only Buffy I have watched has been with you, so I think I have seen the first four seasons now? Harmony makes me twitch, I knew girls like her. Girls like her are why I am -here- and not still in France.
I still say that there is nothing wrong with being obsessed with clothes.
Do you? Like the earring, I mean?
I think your sisters might be a little suprised to find out that their brother is in a band and wears himself out doing .. aikido? I think I am spelling that right, yes?
Rewards. What kind of rewards do I want? Fifth Dawn cards, maybe?
Oh! That reminds me, I think Jamie needs Unglued cards.

Yes, insane Doug was not fun at all.
Yes, Stephie is like Harmony only not such a bitch.
Well, yes, but Stephie takes it to alarming levels.
Yes, I like it very much. I'm actually getting used to it, to the point where it doesn't startle me when I see it in the mirror anymore.
You know, it probably would skew Gwen and Stephie's view of me to find out that I'm in a band and doing martial arts. Although they know I like to sing, it's more the front man of the band who wears leather pants that would throw them.
Fifth Dawn cards could be arranged. Anything else? :)
And yes. Jamie and Miles both need Unglued cards. So that we can have a big four-way match with more rules-changing than actual playing, and enough cookies to make us all extremely hyper.

You could change your earring out now if you wanted to.
Have... your sisters... I know that your parents got you tested for the X-gene (Why -was- that?), I am guessing they tested negative for it?
I think .. lunch, maybe? To steel me for my afternoon of screeching violin noises?

I can indeed. I just haven't decided what I want to do with it now.
I got tested for the X-gene as part of a regular physical before the school year started. My sisters tested negative, yes.
And lunch sounds nice. Let me change out of pajamas and I'll be right over.
