HAHA SUCK IT FATE!

[doubleppk]

Okay so 3rd Friday the 13th this year. Pretty damn scary. But I survived! And no getting sucked into mirrors or ANYTHING! Not only that but we found Haru!! Creepy disturbing cube aside... And best of all I got all my remaining paintings sold! SO HA! Take THAT Fate! Can't touch this!

Reborn you're going to be so proud of me! I got the best price ever for them! YAY! It's a great REALLY long term investment. Ready!? I got land on the moon! Fairy Vearth! Entire countries worth! This will be worth BUNDLES in no time!

I kept the wolf painting though. I hung that up in the hall near the greenhouse door. And the pirate one I'm giving to Sanji and Summer Breeze to Robin.... But aside from that!

Oh and Lucci darling, thanks for the help looking. We couldn't have done it without you... so... Thanks.

ONTO BIGGER AND BETTER THINGS! Mwahahaha!

Why thank you.

But figurehead leaders are not the ones the army usually listens to. They ponce around when everything's fine, and at the first sign of trouble they run. Delegation, the best thing that has ever happened for me. Always have another way, because plans last only until the first moment of battle. Having one commander is a bloody fool thing to do.

[doubleppk]

<3! Just don't go getting into trouble. It'd be a shame to lose that pretty face.

I'll take your word on it. Any time I try to rely on someone other than myself bad things happen so I've taken to avoiding that whenever possible.

[foxoffortune.livejournal.com]

Can't help it when trouble finds me.

It all depends on the job.

[doubleppk]

So long as you keep getting out of it. But be careful if you insist on going looking for it.

Oh?

[foxoffortune.livejournal.com]

A man needs a really good reason to go looking for trouble, unless they are a fool.

Some tasks are only done well with one person. For heavier work, a team helps.

[doubleppk]

Mm. I'm afraid I've known a lot of fools over my life.

Ah yeah... that's true. I mean that's why I would even bother calling on him once in a while but he still manages to mess it up usually... tch. Maybe I need a better team.

[foxoffortune.livejournal.com]

Or just the wrong people.

You could. But it seems that you'ld call him up for sentimentality's sake.

1/2

[doubleppk]

Definitely that. But it seems to be a trait common in everyone.

Mm. You think so do you?

[doubleppk]

Hardly. He's a pain. Messes everything up, always interfering. Such an idiot. I really can't stand him. I'm glad he's gone.

[foxoffortune.livejournal.com]

Yet you're willing to put up with him.

[doubleppk]

Put up with... tch. It's just... you know... complicated is all. Look, you ever met someone you keep trying to get away from but they keep pulling you back in? And then when need them you turn around and they just aren't there?

[foxoffortune.livejournal.com]

Not really. Managed to leave them all behind.

ooc: strikethroughs are always readable with me

[doubleppk]

Well Lupin... is pretty tenacious. I've run the whole world to get away from him and he always finds me. Except now.

[foxoffortune.livejournal.com]

Does he care for you, or is it just business?

[doubleppk]

He's an idiot so I suppose it doesn't matter...

Once I thought he did but... Hn. It's... complicated. On occasion we've been allies, worked together, other times we've been enemies.

He's a real lady killer. And one of the only people I really have to watch my step around.

It's better to just avoid him entirely I guess.

[foxoffortune.livejournal.com]

If that's the way you want things, he should respect that.

[doubleppk]

Yeah well he doesn't. He's a jerk.

[foxoffortune.livejournal.com]

Those are harder to deal with.

[doubleppk]

Tell me about it. No matter how many times I tell him off he just can't take a hint.

[foxoffortune.livejournal.com]

Not even when you threaten to cause excessive bodily harm?

[doubleppk]

Not even when I cause excessive bodily harm. I mean I don't want to shoot him... but everything short of that I've already done.

[foxoffortune.livejournal.com]

He must like you a lot then.

[doubleppk]

I rather doubt that.

[foxoffortune.livejournal.com]

If not as a person, than as a crutch of some sort.

[doubleppk]

Yeah that. You have no idea.

I'm not a great crutch... you know? I have a tendency to snap and kick things instead.
