And with a Crash-

[foxy-l33t.livejournal.com]

Fading out is an echo of two voices...

"He's an angsty, emo, heartless sorcerer swordsman."

"He totally needs to get laid, then."

There's never a good closet around when you need one- at least, ever since someone came up with Rule #3. So what if Laini and Zelgadiss missed the stairs and whatever else door they were aiming for- They're at least out of the bar right now, and Laini is doing her best to get him out of his clothes.

(As for hers- Shapeshifter. That will only take a moment, unless he wants to help as well!)

They crash the door into the back room and onto a convenient couch. Zel winces a bit as the back of his head hits the armrest (because Laini is totally doing the pouncing) and, noticing their surroundings, says eloquently, "Um. Where are we?"

Laini blinks, maybe finally distracted. Somewhat. "Good question- though someone did leave a drink here."

Zelgadiss eyes said drink. It's blue. Very blue. "Yeah, but what sort is it?"


BACKROOM INVASION! Tag freely! Threadhop! Make crack! It's not canon and it doesn't really happen! Allons-y!

"You are not English," Mary points out, her eyes narrow and suspicious. "And I am of the English upper class. And anyways, why were you pointing to him instead of going over and speaking with him?"

Gramarye opens her mouth, then closes it again.

'Because we aren't dressed properly for it.'

Totally lame, and totally true.

Rym flashes Gramarye a relieved look: Good answer. "We're working on the survey now, and when we're done and we've changed our clothes, we'll go talk to him. But since you're here, we might as well ask you too. Gramarye, do you want to try the survey questions?"

"Lots of people aren't dressed properly, here," Mary says scornfully. "I should think my uncle would be used to it."

But the lure of the Survey is strong, so she uncrosses her arms and tries not to look expectant.

Her smile is just this side of brittle.

'By all means.' When she looks over at Mary, her face is composed and as professional as she can manage while wearing a bright red dressing gown. 'Do you consider Joseph Chamberlain's conception of the Liberal Unionist Party to be a formal break with the Gladstonian tradition of liberalism?'

Because when you fake it, you might as well fake it with flair.

Rym just listens in a certain amount of awe.

"No."

Mary's voice is very flat.

"For I do not know what the Liberal Unionist Party is, and I do not know what Gladstonian is, and I think you are just making things up."

[gramarye1971]

'Trust me -- if I were making things up, I would make it much easier on myself,' Gramarye mutters. 'And there would be references to Monty Python movies.'
