/It'd also be nice talking to you when one of us isn't injured or otherwise moody./

[consultmybooks]

...I haven't been moody lately, have I?

...and is anyone going to move past my last stay in the clinic any time soon?

[shadedsunlight]

/I wasn't talking about just you. I was moody the last times we talked and I imagine Alice might have been a handful.

Might I remind you I've so far seen you in the clinic, quickly patched you up during the Battledome malfunction, then later pulled you and Grune to the clinic?/

[consultmybooks]

Mind I remind you that nothing of the kind has had to happen since and, considering Grune and I were basically fighting a major deity, we got off quite lightly?

[shadedsunlight]

/Fair enough, and as we're at war right now, I'd rather not curse things.

But the point remains; dinner on a peaceful occasion where nothing bad is happening or has happened./

[consultmybooks]

That sounds lovely and I look forward to it.

[shadedsunlight]

/As do I.

I still need to get the three of you together for dinner too./

[consultmybooks]

...isn't that what we were discussing?

[Derp.]

[shadedsunlight]

[A pause and Ginia is suddenly glad for her helmet covering most of her face. Still, she smiles and looks forward.]

/Yes, of course we were./

[consultmybooks]

Good. Um, glad that's cleared up, then.

[He still sounds a little stunned, but...yes. Battlefield. That's probably the reason.]

I, um, I think it should be a wonderful idea, Ginia.

[shadedsunlight]

/Yes, I think so. Quite relaxing and nice after everything. Helios and I were just talking about food yesterday./

[consultmybooks]

It's something that most people discuss, when you're off at war.

[He hasn't lived through any wars until very, very recently, but even Giles' family wasn't wealthy enough to escape rationing.]

[shadedsunlight]

/Food, home, loved ones, warm bath. The usual topics./

[consultmybooks]

The pointlessness of it all, what we'd like to do to the Malnosso if ever given the chance...

[shadedsunlight]

/Plans after the draft is over, fond or rueful memories of similar situations and home, and I'd almost wager the "please, I don't want to die a virgin" or "I've never been kiss before" play has been attempted at some point by someone./

[consultmybooks]

[A rather wry smile.] Everyone deals with battles, hardship, and death in their own fashions.

[shadedsunlight]

/Coping methods, got to love them. I prefer having some tea or a glass of good whiskey to improve my mood./

[consultmybooks]

I can offer tea, at the very least.

[shadedsunlight]

/I find myself intrigued by the prospect of tea./

[consultmybooks]

That depends. Are you intrigued by the idea of peppermint?

[shadedsunlight]

/That does sound very nice. And where is said tea?/

[consultmybooks]

[He pulls a thermos out of an inside pocket.]

Right here.

[shadedsunlight]

/Always prepared, aren't you./

[But she'll take the thermos and open it up. Hey, drinking and driving only applies to alcohol.]
