'And the days are not full enough'

And the days are not full enough
And the nights are not full enough
And life slips by like a field mouse
Not shaking the grass.

Ezra Pound

Anyway. Who's excited about the ski trip?

I've only read excerpts but I'd hate to come across as pompous as he does.

[arisahn]

oh. [...] i don't think you're pompous at all! i don't think anyone does.

[tristfully]

Thank you, Aris. I can’t think of anything more pompous than assuming other people are thinking about you, so this is really best case.

[arisahn]

[......]

[Viola]

i feel like i said something stupid here. [like. at least one stupid thing.] so [...] sorry if i did!

the casnaova thing was a joke anyway. and the drum thing.

[...]

[i don't know why you talk to me sometimes. haha.]

but i'm excited that you're excited about the trip! it's gonna be awesome!

Aris/Viola

[tristfully]

I enjoy talking to you, Aris.

You didn’t say anything stupid.

[...] I’m just in my own head too much.

Aris/Viola

[arisahn]

[...] cool. [...] i like talking to you too! ♥ but duh, right?

[...]

i mean. you think about things. that's not bad?

Aris/Viola

[tristfully]

Duh :)

It's not terrible. Just tiring.

Aris/Viola

[arisahn]

[...] what're you thinking about now?

Aris/Viola

[tristfully]

I'm wondering what it feels like to break a femur.

Aris/Viola

[arisahn]

[really?] [...] probably pretty bad?

o h ! i broke my arm once!

Aris/Viola

[tristfully]

Everyone's talking about breaking their bones!

What was that like?

Aris/Viola

[arisahn]

you know. i remember feeling super dizzy and sick to my stomach more than anything? they said that happens when you're in shock sometimes? i heard it snap and it hurt a lot but it wasn't so bad since they fixed it pretty quick!

Aris/Viola

[tristfully]

Did you know muggle soldiers used to have their legs sawed off right on the battleground if they had a bad break?

[.....] Anyway, I'm glad you're a wizard.

Aris/Viola

[arisahn]

for real?

Aris/Viola

[tristfully]

Yes. Muggle doctors didn't know how to fix a badly broken bone. Or fight the infection, so it was easier just to amputate.

And we didn't help them at all.

Aris/Viola

[arisahn]

[......] kinda messed up. when you put it like that.

Aris/Viola

[tristfully]

Yeah.

Better not to think, usually.

Aris/Viola

[arisahn]

maybe. [......] want to go do something super unthinky?

Aris/Viola

[tristfully]

Yes, please.

Aris/Viola

[arisahn]

[...] yeah! want options or should it be a surprise?

Aris/Viola

[tristfully]

In the spirit of not thinking, a surprise.

Aris/Viola

[arisahn]

i've got you covered. [...] on my way!

Aris/Viola

[tristfully]

I can’t wait.
