Thirty-first Lotus

[spandexisyouth]

My name is Gai.

You may use it or Youth as you would like. I have not been very youthful of late; Gai might fit better. But I will not be upset whichever one someone uses.

If anyone who is without their weapons needs assistance with the basics of hand-to-hand, I am available to instruct.

Gai, hm? I'll keep it in mind.

[spandexisyouth]

This is because I mixed you up with your brother, isn't it.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

When did you mix us up? And how?

/decides to try teasing back. Not very well

[spandexisyouth]

A few weeks ago. You probably do not want to hear about it.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

No, I'd love to hear about it. In great detail.

[spandexisyouth]

You really do not.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

Yes, I do.

[spandexisyouth]

I am sure that whatever is going on with the journals right now will make it come out completely wrong.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

Your point is?

[spandexisyouth]

There was piano playing involved.

See? It will not work.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

Did you play all the right notes, or were you off-key?

He's so out of his depth

[spandexisyouth]

I was off-key at first and then there were right notes.

Just so he doesn't drown.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

Oh... Maybe someday I'll have to come listen in on your music-making. Do you two do live-concerts?

[spandexisyouth]

It was a one-time thing, an accident because of mix-ups. I do not see it happening again.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

Shame. You know how much I like a good show.

[spandexisyouth]

I can do a personal concert.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

I don't know. I was kind of looking forward to seeing you two duet.
I suppose I could settle.

[spandexisyouth]

The duet was accidental. It would have to be solo.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

Oh, I guess.

[live_ringer]

...Why would keeping your name in mind be related to that mix up?

[spandexisyouth]

I am sorry. I think I have confused the way Bell uses 'Hm' with the way you use 'Hm.'

[live_ringer]

I have a variety of uses for the word 'hm'. It's a versatile sort of word.

[spandexisyouth]

It is. Bell often uses it to dismiss what I am writing or saying.

Thank you for keeping it in mind.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

Do I? Hm.
I never noticed.

[spandexisyouth]

You do. And I know that you have.
