part 353 whalers on the moon

[aphanon_meme]

We've been here over a year now! I can hardly believe it! Dreamwidth's been pretty good, I'd say, with almost no downtime to speak of and all that! Anyway... how is your spring going? Or I guess it's almost summer, isn't it? Hopefully it's been well! I've been catching up on work and new movies, all very exciting stuff, I'm sure.

Enjoy part 353!

the first meme page stretch in ages

Well, between my sisters and you, perhaps I had no other choice. ["""Born to rule""", after all. God knows how many times everyone has pounded that into her head, forcing her to be...or rather even creepily feel sometimes, mature beyond her years.]

I changed my mind out of concern for my personal economy. If Julia has been running around with my credit card, who is to say her counterpart is not doing the same? What is his name, by the way? [Hopefully something not as disastrous as Roderich, holy shit.]

...I see. If it is too personal to explain, I won't pry. [For once. Because you're making it sound like he does lacks Julchen's flaws and she has a very confused mental image. A perfect, polished, respectful and serious veteran just with an awful voice and a booming, raucous laugh? Handsome, tall...Wait, Did you take another chocolate--DISAPPROVING TONGUE CLICKING NOISE.]

Oh! Honestly! It will spoil your appetite if you keep indulging without limit! That is enough, Lieselotte! Think of your calorie intake and your glucose levels! Your health is fragile lately, please be more considerate of it! You've finished half the box already! This is exactly why you struggle to wake in the morning! Overloading your body with sugar puts a strain upon your pancreas, which makes you unable to properly manage your blood sugar levels! [she cAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE. She feels like she is POISONING YOU. DELIBERATELY Taking away that box now and packing it away back into that giftbox, thanks. she is NEVER BUYING YOU SOMETHING LIKE THIS AS A GIFT AGAIN.]

I will return this to you after dinner!

[It's because they were all grown up by the time she popped up and pushed those expectations on her, unlike their own power-mad childhoods.]

Tsk. Well, you are correct to be concerned- not that he uses yours! In fact, I believe he helps himself to Roderich's more often than not, which I shall have to stop one of these days... [But she likes presents, so maybe not. WHAT'S WRONG WITH RODERICH. Eyes you at that surprisingly respectful statement, wondering what to tell you, because she can't very well let you go on with some misguided idea about him...but but but their relationship is Complex and the things she likes are mushy and personal] Gilbert...and, well; the sum of it is, he shows me the very best of himself. [As opposed to what he shows...everyone else. UH. W-Well, you'll find out in time, she'll just have another- HEY]

For goodness' sake- Monika, don't be absurd! I am perfectly well! Stop- oh, really-

[HELPLESS IN THE WAKE OF YOUR RANTING. She doesn't even know what half this medical jargon means, YOU ARE TOO MUCH. Pouting as you take it away, letting you go on and on and ON. SPOILSPORT.]

Now you are exactly like him! I fear we have all ruined you. [Will it win him points if he bitches about her sugar intake too]

STANDING OVATION

[femany]

I was more concern he was using my counterpart's money. One of these days...You are aware what Roderich spends is also what you spend? [You are basically spending your own money, sorta...She's not sure how alternate universes affect their economy. she will have Hessen look into it. She's being politely respectful of it because she has a feeling it is one of those Before Her Times thing she won't understand that will have a very confusing event Gap because talking about certain things seems taboo.]

I am glad to hear that he does and that he is conscientious of your well being! If several people tell you the same thing, perhaps there is a grain of truth within their words! [And don't you throw that in her face.]

I'll gladly be the one ruined if only to spare your appetite. Besides, the weather outside is beautiful today and the meme has a garden, it would be a good idea to take a walk. [roping you into light exercise, she has had enough of this room]

ty, ty

[fraustria]

I cannot tell you anything about that. And Roderich's personal finances have no bearing on mine, how silly. [A few fancy dinners and gifts out of Roderich's purse isn't going to ruin anyone, hush. A gap in place of the story of how they got together through hurried and ill thought out sex? Absolutely]

Tsk, I see you are all eager to join forces against me and won't be swayed. Very well, I will refrain from eating any more of them today. [she'll just have DESSERT and SUGARY DRINKS. Unless you withhold them like the demon you are] Oh, fine. I suppose it is time to be going- I would not want to wait long for dinner, I am growing slightly hungry...

[Sigh sigh. Getting to her feet and straightening out her dress, tsking because her shoes aren't made for walking and you like to practically jog everywhere. What fun this will be]

Re: ty, ty

[femany]

...If you're sure. [She'll keep that secret from Roderich then, he called her Young Lady after all and she is still not over it]

Thank you. You won't be waiting long, just a stroll then we'll return. [stands up, towering over you as usual, she came in delicate and pretty sandals one of her sisters lent her, so relax, there will be no running, just a walk]

If you need an incentive, I've been caring for a rose bush, if you make it to the end of the garden, I'll gladly cut some roses for you. [She knows what makes you happy. Go on and take her arm like the old aunt you are]

Re: ty, ty

[fraustria]

[GET OVER IT, young lady]

Yes, yes- ah, you really do look well today. Did I get you this blouse? Very pretty, dear. [SHE'S NOT OLD, SHE IS A FRAIL MAIDEN. Takes your arm, then, positively beaming (by her standards) at the mention of roses. She is so easily pleased, why can't everyone else see that?!]

I am glad you show an interest in horticulture. I would like that very much. [and just because she is proud of you for being so nice today, reaches up FOR MILES to give you a lipsticky cheek kiss at last, patting your hand as she waits for you to lead her off like the grandma she is] You have become so tall, I do believe you are taller than Gilbert...

Re: ty, ty

[femany]

[NEVER. GRUDGES ARE GRUDGES]

You did, it's lovely. [Flusters at praise god damn, and just gonna roll her eyes at the cheek smooch, but will leave it as she usually does until she gets to a mirror. A sigh just because she always sighs after you kiss her, whether she means it or not]

I do really wish you wouldn't do that. [Liees. She likes it. It makes her feel loved and special deep down inside]

It's one of my hobbies, and good, I was hoping you would. Shall we go then? I'd like to hear more about Gilbert along the way. He mustn't be much taller than Roderich if that's the case. [leaaaaaaaaaads you off then for some wandering in the sun]
