Friday! cool. Well I can't really ask someone to get me a longer bed - I told you how I have to curl up now right? - and I'm finally getting a little more money myself, so the thing I should ask of people is to donate to the rebuilding and the relief funds. And also to bring some food or drink, I'd rather potluck than have to get too much catering!

well arent you generous i think i can put together something for a potluck. it wont be fancy, though. any special requests?? i can try and get some practice in this weekend

Awesome! yeah that's okay. There's always a concern with this sort of thing how most people bring sweets. But I don't want to go elementary school style and assign everyone I ask to bring a certain something, either! You don't need to cook anything if you don't want! But if you do I'm sure anything would be good.

bacon mac and cheese it is then!! did u ever follow up on the coffee shop thing oh and feel free to text me whenever im always bored in btwn shoots

lol cool, sounds good! I talked to L. I'll look into it, but I also want to see how far the modeling thing goes. Still really weird btw. Roger that!

lmk how the shoot goes k???

Will do!

I'll think about it.

[ She's still unsure, and doesn't really know what to make of the curiosity comment. She doesn't really have a good "before" basis to judge on. ]

If they made friends, that'd be cute! And if he's a social animal at all he'll hate being alone. Chickens are like that.

[Julien is like that. gah. But he's always been like that, long before Locke.]

If life was that easy then we'd all be fat and lazy. Coming up against obstacles sometimes keeps us on our toes!

I did warn you that those things aren't as glamourous as people would have you believe! I'm glad you got along with people, though. Hopefully the photos come out well.

She offered to get me in touch with her father as well.

Hey, I'm on my toes already. Quite literally! [and can't get off...] I'd be quite happy with some fatness now. -As long as it wasn't literal.

Cool. Thinking of going for it?

Ah, before I forget, I found a poem and thought of you. Want to hear it?

I think I will. There seems little point in trying to hide this. It's only a matter of time until someone recognises me and realises for themselves. This way I have control.

I'd love to hear it!

Right, right. How are you thinking about going about this?

All right, then. It's called "Youthening", by Nina Cassian. I'm sure you can already guess. [He makes a throat-clearing sound with a hint of a purr in it and launches in. It's actually "Youthing", but otherwise Julien remembers how it goes. Poet! He does arch his eyebrows as if daring Gabe to comment when he gets to the bird claw part.]

I'll text Ariel first, I suppose, and then have a chat with my agent.

[Gabriel can, sometimes, be patient, and although his lips twitch at the bird claw part he says nothing until the younger man finishes, when he hums and sits back in his chair.] Did I tell you, Puck saw the moon for the first time as an adult? He was surprised by it's rising.

If you ever do something with me - models do that, right? This is still weird - I'll do my best to outshine you, you know.

...huh. [Julien gets a wing up and scratches the side of his face using the rough scales on a finger. He knows better by now than to use his claws.]

That just sounds mythic.

It never gets any less weird, trust me. I'm sure you won't have to try too hard to outshine me.

Do you think? It's disconcerting to think about. That he looked young and yet was apparently older than the moon.

This is not what I'd have guessed I'd be doing ten years ago. Or last year. [He blinks his inner eyelids and falters for a moment, then surges back.] C'est la vie! ...I should try and get that in Sindarin.

Sounds like cheating, to me! [Julien flashes his not-teeth in a smile.] Nah, nah. Double mythic - I read a book as a kid where a wizard would age backwards, and then reverse, and have it pretty much indefinite. Which sounds like it'd be a pain. I guess stasis is better?

Ask Eliot to help you, I'm sure he'd have fun with that.

I hope I wasn't a wizard, at least. I don't think a beard and robe would suit me. [Laughing.] That sounds awful, especially at this speed. Imagine being 50 one month and 60 the next?

You just need the right accessories.

Worse, he was a teenager. Imagine going through puberty twice in as many months.

What's the right accessories? A wand and a pair of cello taped glasses?

I'd really rather not!

Floor-length tie-dye robe, tinted glasses, headband, patchouli... c'mon, I'm sure it'd be like coming home.

Acne medication and like five sizes of shoes. You can't tell me you never had bad skin.

Ah, that kind of wizard. Now you're talking my language! I'm sure I could pull off tie dye. [Laughing.]

Would you hate me if I said I didn't? I mean, I had a couple of spots, but I was fairly fortunate. I was just so - so gangly.

I wonder! Seems it might clash with your inherent dignity and professionalism!

Yes. Yes, I would hate you. I'm like half Asian, you could've run an oil rig on me! Were you at least the kind of gangly that hits himself on things?

I was the kind of gangly that hits himself on things and falls over his feet, don't worry. And when my voice broke it squeaked for what I was sure at the time was an entire lifetime. But as long as I kept my mouth shut and didn't move I could pull it off. [Sadly, that's not what happened at the time.]

That's adorable.

So, did you call to ask about the shoot and fall into our usual patter, or was there something else?
