003 ~*~ A call to... arms?

[ Phone, calls to: Holland, Shiki Tohno, and Taiwan ]
Hi! I hope I'm not catching you at a bad time, but I'm wondering if you wanted to come up this Saturday to help with the gardening? I think one final push, and we'll all be done!

I'll be preparing a big dinner as thanks for coming out, so any time you can spare would be great~


[ Action : 340 Brady Lane ]
[ Speaking of dinner, Meiling knocked on the other bedroom door, calling in for its occupant. ] Miss Patchouli, dinner is ready!

((ooc: No open portion this time around, but please use this as a chance to call or show up randomly at the house if needed!))

Just drag her out?

[not_so_great_wall]

That doesn't always work! Last time we dragged her anywhere, this happened.

[artwithknives.livejournal.com]

I'll talk to her then.

[not_so_great_wall]

No, don't!

[artwithknives.livejournal.com]

Why not?

[not_so_great_wall]

You can't--

[ She pauses, shuffling as she looks around. Then she puts her hand over the receiver and whispers. ] I don't want her to know I'm talking to anyone about this. I don't know how she'll react.

[artwithknives.livejournal.com]

....I'm going to talk to her.

[not_so_great_wall]

[ Firmly. ] No. I...

If it's my fault, I'm the one who needs to take responsibility.

[artwithknives.livejournal.com]

I think you're being an idiot.

[not_so_great_wall]

It's too late for that. [ Frowning. ] I never should've gone through with that plan.

[artwithknives.livejournal.com]

This is why you're an idiot, idiot! Will you shut up with that regret stuff!

[not_so_great_wall]

How else am I supposed to own up to my mistake?

[artwithknives.livejournal.com]

You can't do it because you didn't make a mistake, moron.

[not_so_great_wall]

Yes I did! She said she didn't want to go and I made her go.

--and she didn't even enjoy herself!

[artwithknives.livejournal.com]

Don't do it. I'm telling you.

[not_so_great_wall]

[ Ugh, this would be so much easier in person. Not having body language here made it difficult for her to get her feelings across, she felt. ] I... have to go. I need to finish dinner, and make sure she eats. Please excuse me.
