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.

I thought Scott was the one with the Googly Eyes of Death. But I think I can cut my sleep time up to spend some time on Boiler Beach with you.
Any chance of getting you into something tiny and revealing?

After the disaster of last week and the amount of time it took you to recover from that (and this is my cue to grovel and say how sorry I am again...), we'll have to be careful, but IF you go down when there's no-one else there and IF you keept the synthsilk and the ear plugs on, and IF you drop by the medlab afterwards for a checkup, then I think it'll be okay. Lots of caveats and addendums, I know, but you really can't afford another setback if we want you out of the damn suit by Christmas.
Oh, and anothe IF - IF Haroun keeps his hands to himself and keeps the noise down, he can join you. No, I'm not trying to be a spoilsport, but we have no idea what kind of effect that much light is going to have on what's already overloaded skin. And you're hopeless about telling him when he's hurting you.

I have the original Googly Eyes of Death, I'll have you know. All the rest just copy me. And I would like for you to be there very much. Starting to get cabin fever in a big way, here.
I wish. I so wish. Asked Madelyn about the suit, but after last week, I doubt it - it'd expose me to way too much sound at once. They're planning a gradual cutting down of the suit's body coverage at one point, though...
Alison
Reply to Scott
Date: 2004-12-12 11:46 pm (UTC)Though hey - does an overload of sunlight keep you awake like sound tends to do to me? It's pretty much for the par and normal on my side of things, but now I'm curious.
Well. Except for now, since I do the fall over on face and sleep thing at any given moment. Oi.

Wasn't your fault and at least I got to go out a little bit and I'm fine now! And yeah, I know. Careful. Guess I'll have to tell Haroun no on the tiny and revealing bikiny then. ;)
...honestly, I'm still kinda not wanting to show the leg anyway. Eh. At least the arm and back are a lot better. Amanda did good work there - although I'm getting worried as to how much time and energy she spends in the medlab. I may need to talk to all of you Doctors Three on that soon.
Yes to all the conditions and well... you think light itself would bother me? Oh. Right, the uber-tanning. I'll be careful and you can monitor that soon as I come by after? As for touch - shall try. S'just so damn hard, since I'm the original cuddle girl and damn it, the whole no touch thing is just - driving me nuts. I'll stop now, I've ranted at your over this before. Grn.
And hey - beach! Tonight. Whee!

Re: Say...
Date: 2004-12-13 12:02 am (UTC)Because it has that sekrit ingredient in it that I'm not supposed to ever even acknowledge I know about or else you'll kill me in a horrible way. That's what you said last time anyway.

You and Haroun are just as bad as each other - he trusts you to tell him what your limits are and you blithely ignore them. So I get to be the bad guy. ;P
Amanda... you have a point there. I've been thinking things over since that 'discussion' we had about her and Jubilee, and I'm not liking the pattern that's emerging. Feel free to grab the three of us any time - sooner rather than later might be good, before the next disaster.

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'm going to go take a nap soon. Seems somebody wants me to be alert and functional at 2AM. And whatever kind of beach you want to go to is fine by me - dare I suggest something in the clothing-optional area?
Nah. I'm jealous and don't like to share.
I'm thinking something private and deserted. All alone, just the two of us, nothing to interrupt us or get in the way.

Naps are good. Except when they decide to take over and not consult with you about the whole thing first. Then naps are evil and sneaky.
Mmm. Not sharing works for me, as I am of the jealous persuasion myself as well. La.
You know. Private beaches are more than attainable. I know a few people who have beach side property and don't mind lending it out to a friend...

Fact-fidning about the freak show. We found Miles in a cavern off the side of the beach last year. He's still torn between chosing that day as his birthday, or the arrival at the mansion. It was December 16th, that we found him. December 17th that I adopted him. And we brought him back here on the 18th.
It all happened so fast and now it's been a year...

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.

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'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.
