E-mail to Alison

Subject: Uh, Alison?
You're kind of . . .
Well, there's not really a non-cheesy way to say it. You're glowing. And I don't mean metaphorically, like "wow, you seem happy and radiant," although, y'know, that too. I mean, you're putting out, I'm guessing, maybe a steady forty watts?
Not gonna ask if it has anything to do with why you were gone all yesterday afternoon, and evening, and all night, because, y'know, you might say yes, and then I'd pull a Nathan or something. So, I'm just saying, FYI, you're leaking a little, might want to watch out for that the next time you, uh, take a half-day.
Especially if it's more like eighteen hours.

Sure, you go hide. In the meantime, when I see Kitty...

Subject: No, seriously. I wish I had thought of it.
What, embarrassing the daylights out of just one of us wasn't enough, you have to go for the full set? And you say you're not evil!
Hey, the soundproofing's a lot better here! I mean, Piotr and Warren never used to keep me up, and I kinda doubt they were playing tiddlywinks in there. You need to stop wandering around drafty old castles in the middle of the night, that's your trouble.

Subject: Well, you wrote it at least...
I never said I was going to talk to her about that. ;)

Subject: Do it long enough, and you even pun when you don't try, I guess. :)
Yeah, but the context implied!
And you picked your moment really freaking well, too, I might add. I need a napkin.

Did not. You just assumed.

Subject: Augh.
The entire conversation was you embarrassing me about New Year's, so how was I supposed to assume anything else?
That's what Grandpa always used to say.
