Subject: I want to have fun too...

And I know I can't go for long when others are there, which kinda puts a wrench in that because I don't want to ruin their fun, and I know I'm tanned six ways to Sunday already anyway but - think it'd be okay if I snuck down during the wee hours of the morning to at least get the chance to appreciate the thing a bit on my own, while no one is there?

No 'kini, I know. Still need the suit, though I could at least not use the hood if I use the ear dampeners, right? Like for the deposition last week? Maybe? For a short while? I'll be careful not to wear myself out and all.

...well. Haroun can tag along if he wants, right?

Am attempting to wangle permission for Boiler Beach outing, in the wee hours of the morning. Care to tag along? I have plans to unleash the googly eyes o' death to make sure you can. ;)

Warning. Beach invasion requiring solitude (of a sorts) planned for 2am.

Wait 'till tomorrow morning to move in there, oh Bouncy One?

Could I talk you into making some of that fruit salad, with the secret ingredient? And probably a non super sekrit version too, for Haroun?

*googly eyes*

I'm asking Madelyn if I can sneak downstairs to the Boiler Beach when all is quiet, in the wee hours of the morning and I'm inviting Haroun along... Not much of a date, but hey, it's a start, right?

I can't help it! I hate the whole hover don't touch thing and I'd rather be touched and hurt a little for it and it's not like it does actual damage anyway and it does help in terms of morale. *blink blink* Gah. You didn't tell him I was doing that, right? Right?

I refused healing from her when I got lasered through the leg by Prism, when he turned my power on me. It confused her to no end - she was afraid that no healing meant she wasn't being of use, and so not pulling her weight and that meant Bad Things. That's the pattern I'd like broken. Anyway, I'll work up a draft email and spam you all soon on that.

No, I didn't tell him. I should have, but then I'd have both of you turning the Puppy Eyes of Doom on me and making me feel like one of those crabby, bitter single women who can't stand the idea of anyone else having cuddles. Just establish some limits? He doesn't know how much pain is involved, and since you won't tell him, he won't know and push it too far. And you being the touch junkie won't stop him, will you?

Gah, now I am sounding crabby. And hypocritical, considering the other day. Sorry.

Spam away. I think Moira's starting to worry about that particular cycle as well.

Grf. It's hard. Either I'm miserable or I hurt and well - he is careful and I'd rather hurt a bit than be miserable and all? It doesn't hurt as much now as it used to, really. And he's gotten pretty darn good at reading me, too.

S'ok. No apologies. I'm hardly going to get upset because you're worrying over me, y'know.

Shall do. Just need to organize my thoughts on that one, and we're set. Want to be clear right from the start.

I know it's hard, hon. And the last thing I want to do is make it worse. Forget I said anything.

You didn't. I wouldn't be here if it weren't for you (and the others I know, but you too) and that pretty much means you have every right to keep me in check because I'm not ruining what you did in keeping me around, yeah? Yeah.

Also? "Forget I said anything" is chick speak for "I am wahing and hiding under something now, my day sucks" you know.

Can I help?

You're also a grown woman who knows her limits and doesn't need me riding her back rubbing her nose in the fact she has them. Besides, it was Moira and Forge and Hank and even Amanda who did the most of keeping you with us. I just did the mopping up later.

I plead PMS? Seriously, I don't know what's with me today, other than I'm just feeling cranky and out-of-sorts and I have a new patient to observe tonight. Maybe chocolate would help.

You. Beach. Gorgeous boyfriend. Have fun. Doctor's orders.

It's... not a bad thing to remind me, Madelyn. What I want and what I can do are Not The Same Thing right now.

If you keep knocking yourself down I'm going to have to tromp down there and smack you but good. Hurt and all. There's no way I'm letting you get away with that. Just saying.

New patient? Whaaaat? And chocolate fixes I can provide. As the subject said, small green boy with chocolate and banana (that good?) waffles shall be showing up tomorrow morning. He likes spoiling you. Something about you having a proper appreciation for food. ;)

I snap a salute to that. Oh so much. The gorgeous boyfriend is napping now though, since I'm making him be awake at ungodly hours. Mer.

Dani Moonstar - there's a post to the staff journal. Charles sensed her out there today and sent Haroun to pick her up. Out of control psi, so we've got her in the Box so she'll finally let herself sleep.

I'll keep an eye out for said small green angel of mercy. This is why I don't do healthy food - it makes me cranky.

Maddie.
