If At First You Don't Succeed

"And you replace saucers of milk with ice cream, right?"

by **Nailah Weaver** » Sat Oct 25, 2014 11:08 pm

"More like Bailey's."

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Oct 25, 2014 11:26 pm

"One day, I'll stick around when you guys are getting drunk. I bet you're a riot."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Sat Oct 25, 2014 11:30 pm

"Like you wouldn't believe. It's crazy." she smirks.

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Oct 25, 2014 11:47 pm

"I'd believe a lot of things."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Sat Oct 25, 2014 11:51 pm

"I'm sure, but some things you aren't meant to know."

by **Will Stanton** » Sun Oct 26, 2014 12:09 am

"We each have our roles," he nodded, winking.

Samantha steps in the front door, shutting it behind her. She pauses.

"...well, something smells good."

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Oct 27, 2014 12:54 pm

"Cod in a flour crust, with some angel-hair pasta on the side," Will smiled, with a little flourish of a bow.

"Decided to dress up, I see."

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Oct 27, 2014 2:22 pm

"You like?" Will said, doing a little twirl like an excited schoolgirl.

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Oct 27, 2014 4:18 pm

"I can certainly see you're enjoying it. That's what matters, aye?"

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Oct 27, 2014 4:20 pm

"Well, to a certain degree, at least," Will nods.

"But come in, take some weight off your feet. Busy day?"

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Oct 27, 2014 9:03 pm

Will busied himself in the kitchen, putting the finishing touches on the food, dropping a couple more drops of "olive oil" for flavoring. "Ah, perfect."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Mon Oct 27, 2014 10:01 pm

"Ready to eat?" Nailah asks, uncorking a bottle of white wine.

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Oct 27, 2014 10:08 pm

Will placed the two plates down, and stood back, smiling.

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Oct 28, 2014 12:07 am

"I think so. Don't want to join us, Will?"

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Oct 28, 2014 12:11 am

"Didn't want to assume," Will nodded, before serving up a third plate for himself, and sitting on a third end of the table.

"Not surprised Miranda isn't here--she seems to have some objection to...well, all this."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Oct 28, 2014 12:16 am

"Well I'm not going to make you just watch us eat, aye? You're a friend, not our chef."

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Oct 28, 2014 2:16 am

"I'm not nearly qualified to be a chef," Will laughed. "Just glad to help out in whatever little ways I can."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Oct 28, 2014 10:51 am

"Still, it would be rude to not let you eat with us."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue Oct 28, 2014 11:30 am

"Exactly. Despite what Miranda might think, we're not trying to take advantage of you."

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Oct 28, 2014 12:03 pm

"Oh, ~I~ know what's what. She's paranoid--more about you, Nailah, I think--but I always feel welcome here."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Oct 28, 2014 12:36 pm

"That's... an odd distinction. Did she say why?"

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Oct 28, 2014 12:42 pm

"I think--and this is postulating, mind you--that the distinction is that I follow the Morrigan, and Nailah's, well, not you."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Oct 28, 2014 12:45 pm

"I don't mean to put you in a difficult position here."

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Oct 28, 2014 12:49 pm

"I'm flexible. I can fit in many difficult positions."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue Oct 28, 2014 2:35 pm

"She disagrees with a lot of what I say. I'm not surprised she's rebelling against me specifically."

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Oct 28, 2014 2:44 pm

"Teenagers, right?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Oct 28, 2014 2:45 pm

"She's making up for being suspiciously well-adjusted."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue Oct 28, 2014 2:50 pm

"She's still better behaved than I was at her age, so I can't fault her too much."

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Oct 28, 2014 2:54 pm

"I remember what you were like at her age," Will joked. "Remember the mind-whammy?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Oct 28, 2014 3:09 pm

"She starts plotting revenge if you bring up her native accent."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue Oct 28, 2014 3:14 pm

"Yes I do and yes I will." she smirks.

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Oct 28, 2014 3:34 pm

"Right. Understood,' he said, in the worst Minnesotan accent possible.

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Oct 30, 2014 4:13 pm

"So..." he said, a while into dinner.

"What do you two have planned for tonight?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Oct 30, 2014 4:15 pm

"Barring any more surprises, I was just going to relax I'm afraid."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Oct 30, 2014 4:16 pm

Will nodded. "Relaxing is important..."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Thu Oct 30, 2014 4:20 pm

"Indeed. I might finish off the wine along with a good book."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Oct 30, 2014 8:03 pm

"That sounds really nice... so, I guess you would want me to leave, then..."
