Fifth lecture -- video

[profcharisma.livejournal.com]

[It is some time after midnight, and Lord El-Melloi's face is now broadcast across the city.]

I apologize if I've woken anyone, but I'm afraid that I have to make this call at such an ungodly hour.  If anyone is acquainted with Miss Francis Drake--

[The video is turned to one very asleep (or, rather, tranquilized, but it would be impossible to tell that, since he'd already taken the dart out of her shoulder) Rider who is sprawled across Waver's couch.  She is snoring, and possibly drooling on his upholstery.]

--she has apparently been imbibing too much this evening, and has broken into my house and passed out on my couch.  I would appreciate it if someone would come and pick her up, or else I'll contact the authorities and have them take her.  Either way, I don't care, I just want her out of here so that I can get some bloody sleep.

Considering that she was blatantly appropriating my couch for herself, it would be very difficult for her to not be caught.

I don't think she'll be walking at all for a good while. And I would be surprised if she was ever sober enough to even walk a straight line.

Get rid of her yourself.

[profcharisma.livejournal.com]

I believe I mentioned that I would do so if someone did not come and claim her.

[windsofdaytime.livejournal.com]

Why not let the girl with the blue text do it? She volunteered, didn't she?

I shall not allow a thirteen-year-old child to wander out in the middle of the night to attempt to drag a grown woman across the city.

[windsofdaytime.livejournal.com]

That's a strange requirement. Why not?

Umm, could you maybe... not do that? Call the cops, I mean?

[Video]

[profcharisma.livejournal.com]

Certainly, if someone would come and take her.

Re: [Video]

[theheirofbreath.livejournal.com]

Oh, okay. Where is she? I'll come get her.

[profcharisma.livejournal.com]

You're another thirteen-year-old child, aren't you.

[What the hell was with Drake and children.]

What's that got to do with anything?

[ oh, it's that woman who ran into him with a bike once.. ]

Would it not be okay for her to just spend the night there? It is only common courtesy to take care of a lady if she fell asleep in your house, after all.

If I had invited her over and she fell asleep, of course. We wouldn't be having this conversation right now. I don't think that I'm at all required to show hospitality to someone who broke into my house and started smoking my cigars without my permission, however.

[rocker]

Even if she broke into your house, she must have had some sort of reason for it, correct? We are talking about a lady here, after all.

Francis Drake is a pirate and privateer. If she broke into my house, it was to steal something from me.

[Or to mooch off of him. Both were probable.]

[ video ]

[rocker]

Did you ask her about her intentions, in that case?

[Video]

[stripping.livejournal.com]

My most profound sympathies.

[Video]

[profcharisma.livejournal.com]

Thank you.

I don't suppose you'd want to take her off of my hands for me?

[Video]

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Grudgingly, I'll do it. I don't want Serket going out at this hour and she seems likely to.

[Video]

[profcharisma.livejournal.com]

I hardly want her to, either. She's far too young to be wandering around at this hour. Do you have some way to transport Drake, by the way? It's really hardly any better if you have to haul her the whole way back to the hotel.

I'm fairly certain that her breasts alone would weigh forty pounds.

[On one hand, getting arrested might teach Rider a valuable lesson and she'll behave herself.

... On the other, she might mug me for not saving her tail. Lovely.]

Wait. I'll drag her to mine and Saber's place. She's from my world, so I can't help but feel a bit responsible.
