[Pancake Eleven]: [Accidental Audio]

[loopmein]

[There's relative silence, except for a faint beeping of hospital machinery. Eventually, there's a faint sigh.]

Seems like every time I come here... I say the same thing. I suppose I'm just trying to avoid thinking of... that possibility. Far be it from me to think I've got any sort of control over fate, but...

... Hoshi... it doesn't feel right. You might be missing Christmas... you hadn't even gotten a chance to meet Stormy yet... [chuckles softly] She'd love you, by the way...

[another pause, and another sigh]

I miss you. I don't think I'll ever stop wishing that you hasn't gone in to that fight alone...

[a rustle, and something is set on the table]

I got you a present. Hopefully you'll get to open it on Christmas. If not... well... it'll still be there when you do...

[the comm goes silent again, for several minutes, before clicking off.]

Poor kid...

...and you say it was because she ran off and got into a fight by herself?

Re: [locked to Odd]

Something... about wanting to save some one from himself... she was convinced she had to do it alone.

Now why does that sound familiar?

[loopmeinoddone.livejournal.com]

... saying 'that's different' isn't going to convince you, is it?

Got any proof to back it up griddleboy?

Re: [locked to Odd]

[loopmeinoddone.livejournal.com]

... no, can't say I do.

So charming.

Coming home soon?

Re: [locked to Odd]

[loopmeinoddone.livejournal.com]

Yeah, yeah. Should be home soon.

Good, I tried my hand at Spaghetti and I need a test subject.

Re: [locked to Odd]

[loopmeinoddone.livejournal.com]

Uhoh. Should I be afraid?

I only set the smoke alarm off with the garlic bread...and who decided to make those things so hard to turn off anyway? I was about ready to toss the thing out a window and let the neighbors deal with it.

We run a restaurant. If we didn't have a good fire alarm system we'd be in trouble.

... wait, just how did you set off the smoke alarm with garlic bread? That takes like... ten minutes to bake.

Re: [locked to Odd]

It takes a special kind of skill to burn garlic bread...and my assistant thought if he turned up the oven it would cook faster.

Oh, yeah, that'll do it. Tell your assistant that directions are there to be followed, not ignored.
