Not sure if we'll actually have much going on in Istanbul proper, but I got all excited and just ordered this book:

I'm looking forward to replying soon, and wondering if @MsBloom would like me to wait for her reaction before I do.

It's fun to have everyone back in the same car again.

 

[xavierrol]

Happy Friday everyone. I hope you are all doing well and ready for a train ride!

 

[Traveler]

Yeah! Totally.

 

[captain_bond]

Yup yup. I think we've left off with Charles and his apology to Jane?

 

[Traveler]

Yup yup. I think we've left off with Charles and his apology to Jane?

I think you're right. Charles came over, Leo's about to see if he wants to join Jane and himself, and we'll see what the Flapper and Nobleman are doing...

 

[captain_bond]

Aye. And it's a simple edit if he indeed does invite Charles to join him, as I concluded the post with him making his way back to his seat.

 

[Traveler]

He did, but Leo's not above calling out to him depending on how Jane responds. He doesn't want to be accused of cock blocking, ha ha!

 

[captain_bond]

One way or t'other.

 

[Shiva the Cat]

I was also gonna see if Jane reacted to Estella being a klutzy-McKlutzerson, but I think I'll probably get some kind of response out Sunday regardless. Wee bit tipsy atm and have a super packed schedule tomorrow.

 

[MsBloom]

Sorry it has taken a while to get a response out but I've been feeling a bit under the weather this last week.

 

[Traveler]

I hope you feel better soon! We have the seasonal allergies here making everyone feel yuck. Oh Autumn, so lovely, and yet so full of sniffles!

Thank you for checking in - I'm happy to wait until you feel better. Jane's responses are always so much fun!

Here's some tea to help you feel better.

Edit: Oh, shoot - you posted!

 

[MsBloom]

Here's some tea to help you feel better.

That is always appreciated.

 

[captain_bond]

Since @Traveler already provided tea, I will provide the hugs and the smile. Hope you feel better soon!!

 

[MsBloom]

I will provide the hugs and the smile.

What!!! No chicken soup???

 

[captain_bond]

This is a group RP, someone else can bring soup

 

[Shiva the Cat]

I’m outta soup but say the word and I’ll get my drug mules on this situation

 

[Traveler]

Ha ha! I am imagining this:

 

[Shiva the Cat]

Ha ha! I am imagining this:

……..yes that is exactly what I meant. Pay no attention to the child slaves.

 

[captain_bond]

LMAO you guys are funny

 

[Traveler]

……..yes that is exactly what I meant. Pay no attention to the child slaves.

I thought they were called Oompa Loompas?

LMAO you guys are funny

Humor is a cheap anti-depressant! LOL!

 

[captain_bond]

Free, you mean. I just wish it worked on everyone.

 

[Shiva the Cat]

I thought they were called Oompa Loompas?

Omg Trav those men have jaundice, don’t make fun of them!!!

 

[Traveler]

@captain_bond - sometimes my 'dad jokes' don't hit quite right, and then there is definitely a price to pay, haha! It's hard to communicate in writing. You don't have the inflections of your voice or body language to help translate the meaning behind the words. There are so many times I typed something out meaning to sound friendly or helpful, and it was received in a much different manner. Ugh!

@Shiva the Cat omg Shiv! That's just their natural glow!

 

[MsBloom]

a ha! I am imagining this:

Wait. That's a dragged mule not a drug mule.
