I figure I'm only incidentally handy, really.

Oh, I see.

Fewer cars beats everyone in the joint demanding their oil changed, I imagine!

I'm not allowed to be dishonest in meta. Apparently.

[caballero]

So I should start asking the hard questions.

[phoenixsays.livejournal.com]

I think you should refrain. I haven't even done anything here yet!

[caballero]

But you speak Hungarian. That's so exotic and interesting and my annoying socialite radar says I should bother you about everything.

[phoenixsays.livejournal.com]

Exotic, ha. I will respond, but only in Hungarian. Csángó dialect.

Also if you're going to pretend to be an annoying socialite at me, you have to acquire me stupid-looking but delicious socialite alcohol. It's a rule, I saw it in the entrance chamber.

[caballero]

The dialect could prove a challenge. But I like challenges.

It'll even have an umbrella in it.

[phoenixsays.livejournal.com]

In that case you may eventually discover that my mastery of Csángó specifically is somewhat questionable, but I've found I can pretty much fake the more obscure languages around 95% of the population and they just go 'oohh, Europe' and never catch on and did I mention how annoying this enforced honesty policy is? It's like wearing a dress that doesn't fit.

...pink?

OH IT HURTS

[caballero]

Your dresses will fit my floor just fine, I promise.

For you, of course.

HAHAHA OH BEGINNING THIS

[split-second pause, loading trollery, ACCLIMATION COMPLETE] We'll see about that. I prefer hangers, but if I can get replacements...

Wonderful. You know, the help at Milk and Honey at home could never get that sort of thing right; I know they work at a bar, but you'd think they could discern colors, don't you?

[caballero]

It's the lights; it happens when you spend your whole life working in what amounts to a cave.

That is why God invented lasik. And stress relief- not that they have an on-call masseuse here. [her expression here is like, SO SINCERELY AND TREMULOUSLY BRAVE, as though she will somehow bear it.] I'm sure there are alternate means.

[caballero]

Look at that, we're back to your dress on my floor.
