"Er... yes, okay, I suppose I should tell you that if you're trying to reach me I'm not here, and if you're trying to reach me because you want to do something involving pointy bits of metal or otherwise painful objects, I'm never going to be here. So sorry."

Maybe it just knows a great guy when it sees one.
Or maybe it just likes to get clean sometimes.

[wizzardly]

Are you defending it being in your shower now? I suppose I could find it a lid-sized shower cap.

[textualhealing]

I'll defend it so long as it doesn't try to murder me in my sleep.
I take it that wood is ok to get wet? Because if not then whoops.

[wizzardly]

Don't worry, there wouldn't be any sport in that. I'm sure it would prefer you awake.

[a joke? Probably a joke.]

It's gone to purposefully dredge up sea monsters before, and swam away from a slaver ship somehow, so water is fine. It would be difficult to find something that could harm it.

[textualhealing]

Ok good. It's clean now. Sharkbait is gonna get jealous if I give it too much attention tho.

[wizzardly]

I'm sure he'd find someone's leg to console him. Or some poor stuffed animal.

[textualhealing]

If you're lucky, he might even go for the hat. I don't think he's claimed that yet.

[wizzardly]

You'll be putting up "Lost" posters if he does.

[textualhealing]

And you'd be answering to Will if that happened. And also my fist.

[wizzardly]

Fine, fine.
Where did you even find that one?

[textualhealing]

Will found it.

[Obviously.]

Think it was a park.
April named it.

[wizzardly]

But he's yours?

[textualhealing]

Nope.
He adopted me.

[wizzardly]

oh, so more like the Luggage then.
And just as misbehaved. Did you have pets in your world? I never really understood the urge.

[textualhealing]

I didn't back home, no. You just had luggage, right?

[wizzardly]

Right. I've never been good at being responsible for things.
Or staying in one place long enough to try, for that matter.

[textualhealing]

I hear you on the responsibility front. I looked after myself and no one else.

[Until he joined Community College, and then he took a crash course in 'friendship' and 'responsibility' and all those gross things.]

[wizzardly]

And generally that's enough work. I can't imagine adding another life onto that.
I honestly don't know how Will does it.

[textualhealing]

And here I was picturing you as the kind of guy to be married with kids.

[Lol no.]

[wizzardly]

Oh yes? You seemed more observant than that.
Did you have someone back home? Girlfriend?

[textualhealing]

You mean you're not a hit with the ladies? Shocker.
As for me. Nah. Not anything stable. Too much effort, am I right?

[wizzardly]

I'll have you know it's because wizards aren't allowed to be with women.

[look they both know that's the whole reason, but let's not get rude.]

I wouldn't know about the effort. Surprising though I thought you'd have someone aren't you often with women?

[textualhealing]

Often with them but not settling down with any. It's a personal choice.
You'll understand if you ever lose your virginity.

[wizzardly]

Oh ha ha. Not a virgin.
Also why not?

[textualhealing]

Because why would I? Would you?
