val_corax. Out of work and bored out of my little birdie skull. (Reply)

Ran in to Charley and we had a nice chit-chat, where I got to complain a bit about recent events. Was nice to have a sympathetic ear to whine at. We also talked about his Tribe somewhat and Zosia got mentioned, which kinda made me wince. Charley asked about the wincing and I related the story of the Buzzard-Bauble that had gotten me in to so much trouble all those years ago. Really hope that damn thing got smashed in to dust.

In the end, Charley bought me lunch, for keeping him company. Free food! Yay!

Ran across this big-assed shaggy wolf thing in the park, digging through dumpsters for food. Looked rather like the love child of a wolf and a shag rug, but enough like a wolf that I did a quickie check. And, low and behold, it was a Garou. Who then proceeded to try and mooch food off of me by making sad faces. What with the Garou Frenzying in the park and helping nap their cubets, I really wasn't in the mood to deal with any sort of wolf. Even one that looked like it lacked even two brain cells to rub together and was all drooly at the mere prospect of a granola bar.

While playing the if I ignore it, it will go away game, at the Shag-Rug, Sue showed up and apologized for the whole incident with him and Moros. Nice of him to apologize. He wanted to know if he could repay me in any way. Told him the honest truth - there was nothing he could do at the moment. But, I will keep the offer in mind. Being owed doesn't hurt anything.

Told Sue that the Shag-Rug was a Garou and found out that he doesn't know Scent of the True Form. Will have to let Nick and Charley know that, since Sue has proven to be a bit nosey. But, anyway, Sue offered the Shag-Rug pizza and they wandered off. Leaving me in peace.

Since I am out of work for a bit, I've been finding that I have a lot of time on my hands. So, I woke up one morning and decided to re-arrange my shinies. It took the entire day, but I now have some really lovely patterns going on with the stuff that hangs from my ceiling. Kept more of an eye on colour this time, rather than material, and the swirling patterns I made turned out reallyreally well.

I also went through my things and started planning what I would take with me on my trip. I will be packing light, since I don't need much at all. Sketch pad, some pencils, one sturdy set of clothes, some small containers, incase I decide to bring something back. Debit card, if this ends up being a Realm and Umbra trip for one reason or another. Think I'm all set.

Was doing a fly-by the Terminus building and spotted Charley working away after hours. His window was open and it was just too damn easy to sneak inside and mess with him some. I just couldn't resist. I snuck in, made the sound of someone knocking on his office door, and when he went to answer it, I 'borrowed' some of his papers. While he was off looking for those, I snuck up behind him, went human and asked if he'd lost something. Oh man, I scared him good. Was priceless.

But then he was kind of mad at me, which took some of the wind out of my sails. Still, I was able to talk him in to leaving his work behind and heading out to do something a bit less stuffy. We eventually ended up at The High Note, a rather snazzy jazz club in the Historical District. We had a nice chat, I introduced him to Mindspeak, and used it to show him what the city's Shadow looks like.He seemed fascinated.

Charley also let slip that Mage's can make Magic Alarms around their places, that let them know when critters like me come and go. Interesting.

Bored. Bored. Bored. Need to find something to do...
