26 Wake upand make it count

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

[Contrary to popular opinion, and despite his best wishes, Jack does indeed sleep. Not that he's doing so as the moment, but he has woken up quite recently. This leaves him half groggy, running a hand through his bed hair as he yawns.

Since he usually passes out for these things, he's at least properly dressed, white shirt and something akin to dress pants, but not quite. He's shoes are nowhere to be seen, though]

Give it a few months. This place becomes easier to deal with.

I've heard that; so far it certainly seems rather peaceful... Though I've heard that some people tend to ruin that state.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

[His expression sours a bit] You take the good with the bad, unfortunately.

[firstmadeson.livejournal.com]

I've been doing that my entire life; it's hardly a novelty... I can avoid most trouble though.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

Then you'll do just fine here.

[firstmadeson.livejournal.com]

I hope so, I might actually get some work done [Suuuuuuuuure you will Sorin]

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

What sort of work would that be, if you don't mind me asking?

[firstmadeson.livejournal.com]

[...Oh dear; he's still not used to the curious people] Just general work; I'm in charge of a large company so there's quite a lot to be done.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

Funny, I didn't take you for the corporate type.

[firstmadeson.livejournal.com]

We do usually tend to help celebrities, so perhaps that's why- it isn't exactly a normal workplace [Now, isn't that a understatement]

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

[With a hint of amusement] Not your every day office?

[firstmadeson.livejournal.com]

No, I certainly wouldn't describe it as that... Many odd things seem to happen daily.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

I might have a bit of experience with that, myself.

[firstmadeson.livejournal.com]

Really? It can be fun occasionally, but it can also be faintly annoying.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

I don't know. It definitely helps pass the days.

[firstmadeson.livejournal.com]

Yes [Smile] That's something I suppose; a few bits of peace would be nice though.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

Maybe that's what this place is for?

[firstmadeson.livejournal.com]

...Are you proposing that it's fate?

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

[Laughing] I don't believe in anything predetermined.

It's simply a coincidence with advantages.

[firstmadeson.livejournal.com]

[Smirk] Some people still do; I think it rather unwise myself- the universe is nowhere near as organised as it should be.

I like that description [He may be moving into fliiiiiiiiirt territory]

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

[That is a road well traveled by Jack]

I like you.

[firstmadeson.livejournal.com]

Why, thank you- you aren't so bad yourself either [Between these two the road must be almsot worn down by now]

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

[It must practically be none existent] Only that?

[firstmadeson.livejournal.com]

[A right hazard to public safety] Well; I don't want to be too forward- I could say a lot more.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

[Shouldn't be traveled by anyone else, really] No such thing as too forward.
