Excerpt from 'New Year's Resolutions'

I am resolved—to flirt no more,
It leads to strife and tribulation;
Not that I used to flirt before,
But as a bar against temptation.
Here I except (cut out the names)
Perfectly Platonic flames.

Rudyard Kipling

Problematic in a million ways.

Have you all sorted out your resolutions yet?

can't say i got complaints about that. [...] working mostly. letting some people head to bed at a normal time.

was kinda thinking something real withering. or a solid right hook.

[tristfully]

Do you have New Year's Eve off?

Well, I suppose it's alright if I only use my withering powers on people who really deserve it.

[opsia]

can probably get part of it.

what’s your grading system?

[tristfully]

I don't enjoy being around men who are too sure of themselves. Or hypocrites. Though I like Patrice, so perhaps I'm the hypocrite.

If you manage to get some time off, [...] I'd like it if we ran into each other.

[tristfully]

Shush, you.

[opsia]

don't tell patrice, but he ain't actually hard to like.

[Viola]

yeah, of course. don't think i'd have to do too much convincing.

[tristfully]

I don't think I need to tell him.

[Desmond]

[.....] Great!

[shoulderdevil]

But I like the positive attention.

[opsia]

too bad that’s the end of it.

[shoulderdevil]

:(

[opsia]

probably not. probably shouldn’t have said it at all.

[Viola]

i’ll ask real nice and everything.

[tristfully]

Shhh, he's always listening.

[Desmond]

Do you think we can find a party?
