May 6th and beyond - Sam's apartment

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Jan 04, 2011 7:11 pm

I don't have to agree with everything she does to support her.

by **Rebecca Valentine** » Tue Jan 04, 2011 7:14 pm

If this was a simple 'not agreeing', you'd be in bed right now.

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Jan 04, 2011 7:17 pm

I'm not allowed to be a little worried by this?

by **Rebecca Valentine** » Tue Jan 04, 2011 7:24 pm

If you were a "little" worried, you'd be asleep. You're a bit beyond that. This is like the career woman who can't picture losing her freedom who will 'support' her friend who's decided to start a family, but then rant and rave about how she's giving up her freedom, how awful children are, rubbish like that. She's the one doing this, not you. If she's not worried, it's rather silly for you to be.

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Jan 04, 2011 7:31 pm

I think she's rather more than just a friend, wouldn't you say?

by **Rebecca Valentine** » Tue Jan 04, 2011 7:59 pm

Yes, but that's as close a relation as I could use for the analogy and still have it make sense. And you're dodging the point, that is how you're acting.

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Jan 04, 2011 8:21 pm

May I add how lovely it is to get this on two fronts at once?

by **Rebecca Valentine** » Tue Jan 04, 2011 8:36 pm

And both from people who know you and love you, so we're obviously both right and doing this for your good. Do you, by any chance, remember all of the rubbish you whined about while you were denying you were psychic while we were in high school?

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Jan 04, 2011 9:23 pm

I don't think this is the same as that at all.

by **Rebecca Valentine** » Tue Jan 04, 2011 9:25 pm

Well of course you don't. You'd be accepting it in that case.

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Jan 04, 2011 9:26 pm

What do you expect me to do, Becca?

by **Rebecca Valentine** » Tue Jan 04, 2011 9:27 pm

I want you to be bloody honest about this. You don't like this. You're afraid of it. I want you to say why.

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Jan 04, 2011 9:30 pm

I don't like the times magic has grabbed a hold of me and made me something else. Why would anyone?

by **Rebecca Valentine** » Tue Jan 04, 2011 9:34 pm

You don't have to like it. Have you, though, done anything in order to understand it, or have you just denied it as a possibility, buried your head in the sand, and done your best to pretend it's not there?

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Jan 04, 2011 9:35 pm

I've tried to stay away with it because people have gotten hurt when I haven't.

by **Rebecca Valentine** » Tue Jan 04, 2011 9:36 pm

Is that an excuse you'd take from a student who's refusing to learn how to control a massive power? Or would you tell them that shutting it all away is irresponsible?

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jan 05, 2011 2:31 am

This isn't one of my powers.

by **Rebecca Valentine** » Wed Jan 05, 2011 2:41 am

You don't know that. And that, right there, is my point. You don't know why it happens, because you never look into it, and you never look into it because it scares you. And Sam, I love you, but you still handle things about yourself that scare you the same as you always have.

And getting that checked out isn't even my point, honestly. But your girlfriend is looking into why things happen. Which is exactly what you'd tell a student who was having a strange power development to do. Hell, you told that bloody pseudo-nuts Phoenix girl to do that. If there were ever someone who should be bloody terrified of what's going on with them, there's someone who should. Yet you LIKE the Phoenix, so you don't worry about that.

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jan 05, 2011 12:11 pm

I know that there's precious little that's going to stop the Phoenix. That isn't a problem that can be avoided.

by **Rebecca Valentine** » Wed Jan 05, 2011 12:17 pm

Oh, something that can't be stopped, but you aren't losing sleep over that.

Face it, darling, you're projecting. Immensely. You're also making the very bold assumption that you know more than the people who are actually doing their homework.

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jan 05, 2011 12:27 pm

I'll support her. You know what I'd do for her.

by **Rebecca Valentine** » Wed Jan 05, 2011 12:35 pm

You're dodging the point again, darl- oh hell with it. I'm going to sleep, don't stay up too late. There's no such thing as a day that's not long lately.

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jan 05, 2011 1:22 pm

Honestly, Becca. I've admitted why it bothers me. What more can I do here?

by **Rebecca Valentine** » Wed Jan 05, 2011 3:36 pm

Let it go and go to bed. If she's not worried, then you don't be worried either.

by **Victoria Valentine** » Tue Jan 11, 2011 4:54 pm

The morning of the ninth, a bouquet of white roses would be delivered to Sam's door, with a card.

Not everyone has the patience to continue dealing with an utter bitch.

Thank you for having it.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue Jan 25, 2011 5:24 pm

"I'm sure this is going to be fun..." Nailah mumbles to herself as she knocks on Sam's door.

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Jan 25, 2011 7:50 pm

Samantha went to the door, looked through the fisheye lens, and then with a confused expression opened the door.

"...love?"

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Jan 26, 2011 3:09 am

"Remind me to never trust a hair-stylist again when they suggest highlights."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jan 26, 2011 3:10 am

"...that's highlights?" She asked, stepping aside to let Nailah in.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Jan 26, 2011 3:11 am

"No that is covering up the highlights."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jan 26, 2011 3:12 am

"I... see," she murmured, clearly not getting it.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Jan 26, 2011 3:15 am

"She was supposed to lighten some strands. Instead she turned them black. It looked ridiculous."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jan 26, 2011 3:16 am

"Suppose that would."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Jan 26, 2011 3:17 am

"Just go ahead and say it..." she almost groans.

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jan 26, 2011 3:18 am

"Say what?"

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Jan 26, 2011 3:21 am

"Nevermind. Anyway... this is going to take forever to grow out." she sighs.

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jan 26, 2011 3:22 am

"I at least hope they didn't charge you for this."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Jan 26, 2011 3:24 am

"Of course not! She... may have been too scared to try anyway when I stormed out."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jan 26, 2011 3:25 am

"I certainly would have been cross too."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Jan 26, 2011 3:28 am

"They offered free services for the time being though. You know, in case I want to experiment more."
