Eleventh Sign [video; forward dated to tomorrow morning]

[beyondimagining]

[Will coughs weakly as he holds the communicator up, looking rather pale and tired.    The fact that the boy is completely soaked and covered in bubbles doesn't help matters.]

Animated cleaning supplies are terribly inconvenient, I think.

[He coughs again and sets the communicator down, showing that his room is currently being enthusiastically cleaned by a team of mops and brooms.]


[Posting this early, due to a surprise family event tomorrow that might keep me out most of the day.  Assume this happens tomorrow morning, as Will's event starts.

This kicks off the first day's effects.  Animals will be restless and frightened. Around Latimir, any electrical devices might malfunction at odd times. ]

Ohhhh. That goes away on its own. Make yer mom or whoever cook somethin' for ya!

[beyondimagining.livejournal.com]

I've heard so. I just have to wait it out, I suppose.

My Mum isn't here. I thought I would just try to do for myself.

[kongeriget]

Okay, then whoever's takin' care of ya here.

[beyondimagining.livejournal.com]

I'm taking care of myself.

[kongeriget]

But yer like, eight. （　/can't tell ages.　）

[beyondimagining.livejournal.com]

I will be thirteen next week.

[kongeriget]

That's still really young!

[beyondimagining.livejournal.com]

I suppose so. But it didn't seem to me that there was much choice about it. I am alone, here.

[kongeriget]

Well, ya gotta find people to stay with an' be yer family!

[beyondimagining.livejournal.com]

I've been okay, so far.

[kongeriget]

If ya were sick for real, ya wouldn't be.

[beyondimagining.livejournal.com]

I suppose not.

[kongeriget]

I'm right!

[beyondimagining.livejournal.com]

Are you?

[kongeriget]

Always.

[beyondimagining.livejournal.com]

Suppose there's not much use in arguing, then.

[kongeriget]

Yeah, that's right! So, who do ya know around here that can keep an eye on ya, kid?

[beyondimagining.livejournal.com]

I'm afraid I wouldn't know who to bother.

[kongeriget]

It's not a bother, it's normal. Ya gotta know some people 'round here.

[beyondimagining.livejournal.com]

Everyone I can think of is already busy with something right now.

[kongeriget]

… （　this is denmark telling himself that he's not allowed to drag random people home anymore.　）

[beyondimagining.livejournal.com]

Don't worry. I will be fine. I just haven't quite figured out how to cook yet.

[Yes, he nosied his way through eavesdropping on this conversation.]

I'm only just down the hall, Will.

[Will answers Balthazar with some relief. It was really quite difficult to explain to someone like Denmark the certainty he had that he needed to be alone for now. At least until he had become an Old One once more.]

I thank you for the offer, Balthazar. But, I had thought I should remove myself from everyone else soon. As best I could.

[arcanacabana.livejournal.com]

Understandable.

If I can get this nonsense under control sometime in the near future, I can be of more use if needed though.
