Harry might turn into Grumpy the Dwarf but it takes more than a few beers to lay me out.

Well fuck YOU very much for making me pup look like the world's biggest lush for having the hangover that ate Calera!!! Cast iron stomach me arse! *grumbles and curses, glaring at the both of you, not to MENTION the hints I've gotten from what's coming from Dominic and Elijah.*

*Sigh*. More to the point is that Harry is too fecking stubborn to suck it up and take medication when necessary. Probably didn't keep down whatever Orlando forced on him this morning, and he has such an ingrained resistance towards taking medicine, (or seeking out medical help, although it's not so applicable here) especially for a 'self-inflicted' reason that he's more likely to whine and complain and try and make everyone feel as crappy as he's feeling, rather than actually do something about it. Giant baby.

I'm willing to bet that Sean wasn't feeling quite so sunny when he first got up this morning though... might wanna ask Eric about that sometime... see if we get a bit of a different story out of him than the 'Hangover? What Hangover?' one he's displaying here.

And trying to swat Harry today would be a BAD BAD idea... he's passed out on the couch with the *BFB right beside him... fair warning.

*BFB= Big Fucking Bat...

Har?

If the shoe fits man, and at least you weren't Dopey the Dwarf....

Dominic *low growl*

You really wanna get into which one of us is Dopey? You aren't the only one in the building with good intel, kid. Think about that before you mouth off.

Harry, I believe you just proved my point brilliantly.

How is your hard head anyway?

'M fine. Brilliant. You're fucking dead for sending Mum in when I'd already chased Elijah away. I fucking swore at your Mother, Dominic! AND she made me take stomach-medicine-thingies. Threatened me with 'speaking loudly'.

So. Fucking. Dead.

Old man, I can't believe you were frightened of 'loudness'. And by the way, I think I can outrun you easily.

And I'm not kinky enough to want you to catch me. Unlike Orlando, who by the way, deserves a medal of honor for putting up with your whinging this morning.

When are you moving in anyway? *Poke*

Old man, I can't believe you were frightened of 'loudness'. And by the way, I think I can outrun you easily.

Dominic... this is MUM! She gets going, volume up, with my head the way it feels right now and I shouldn't be worried? And I've seen you cringe like a kicked puppy when she got going at you, so don't even try and pretend like you're immune.

And another thing - Today notwithstanding, I'm a fucking retriever Dominic... I'd have you down and on the ground before you made it ten paces. You're not gonna outrun me. Just ask Viggo sometime.

Orlando was amazing, and deserves a medal for putting up with me at the best of times, never mind last night and this morning.

And on the other? Mind your own fucking business Dominic. I'm not playing around here. Fair warning.

Okay, old man, I'll give you Mum and loud and cringing before it.

And on the issue of Viggo - let me just say this again - OLD, just like you mate! No wonder you could catch him.

Karl - I'll give you might be able to. And in another day, I would've let him. Hell I'd let him today prolly.

On the last issue *whistles innocently*

You're really pushing it today, aren't you Dominic. Well, even if you won't accept catching Viggo as proof, I've managed to catch Orlando, and that kid's got enough speed and energy to power Palace singlehandedly, if we could only find a way to harness that energy...

Karl's a free agent. Well, not entirely, I suppose. But it's certainly none of my concern- you'll have to talk to Viggo on that one. Unless you've got some spare credits lying around, and as much as I try and avoiding hearing about it, I think you manage to make out fine around the building without resulting to operating on a cash basis.

Dominic? Not playing. Leave it lie. It's between me and him- no one else. Back off.

OK, Mads and Mum are very cute together. :D Somehow the idea of tough, scarred-and-tattooed wilding Mads having a sweet little middle-aged lady in an apron and pearls (OK, I'll admit to a bit of artistic license here) deliver a nice lunch in a basket and a homemade apple pie is just... bizarre. [snicker]

And I was so angry that no one helped them until Ben showed up. Gave the manager a piece of my mind, I can tell you.

Go, Mum! :D

"Well, I'll stand guard to keep the police away while you do it!" Mum's expression is rather fierce and serious. "Suppose we can't do that, can we? Bloody hell, it would be wonderful if we could."

See Previous Comment.

he's worried about losing me over Julian, if I were to do something rash, as it were.

Smart kid. :/ Sad, but true. As satisfying as it'd be to see Mads rip Julian's head off and stomp it into a messy pile of chunks, it'd probably be a bad idea. [sigh]

"He's amazing...and infuriating, and worth all of it, even when he's driving me crazy."

[chuckle] Yep, that's love. :D

Ioan's so...needy...but please don't take that as my insulting him. I think I need someone like that honestly, but sometimes it can be hard--and when we clash, we really clash."

Needy isn't necessarily bad. Some people need to be needed, so it's good that there are people around who need, you know? It's just one more trait that needs to be meshed to find a good fit.

I don't mean to make it seem like I think it's necessarily negative--we compliment each other.

Exactly. [nod]

"Oh my, is it terrible that I want to have a bird's eye view of that visit?" Chuckling at bit as she pictures the reaction of a city-bred young man to the Wilding culture.

Umm, yeah, that one definitely has its entertainment possibilities. ;)

"Speaking of Dominic, that reminds me of my question. This Trent he's seeing, he works for you? Is he a good sort?" She assumes an innocent expression as if the information isn't that important.

Oh, like anyone is going to believe that's an innocent question, coming from a mother about her kid's new boyfriend! [tickles Mum]

I've seen them together, he adores Dominic.

Yeah, he does. It's sooooooooo cute! [grin] I love watching those two!

It's also fun watching Ioan reduced to (relative, for him) silence for a bit. [grin] Mum can be sort of overwhelming on first acquaintance, can't she? [snicker]

Fun scene!

Angie

Angie dear, I don't own pearls [wink] but have quite a lovely collection of lingerie.

And everyone needs somebody to snuggle them up, including scarred Wildings, whose real mothers were total unfeeling bitches - grrr! like to have two minutes with that hag!

So, as I was saying, we Mums have to take care of our boys but have our own fun as well. And thank god for Harry's occasional gift baskets so we keep the massage oil supply well stocked.

You know me, Mum." Sean chuckles, taking the fussing with equanimity. "Cast iron bloody stomach, me. Harry might turn into Grumpy the Dwarf but it takes more than a few beers to lay me out.

Uh huh. Sorry, hon, but Sala already ratted you out. Without your twenty aspirin you'd be just as growly-puking as Harry. [tickle]

Grinning over at him, she asks. "So, going to share it with someone special?"

LOL! Give it up, Mum. [snicker] You might as well, go in with a tape recorder and a press pass; everyone knows when you're sniffing around. [grin]

Don't tell Dominic but his moving out has, let us say, made it much easier to have friends stay over for breakfast."

ROFL! Good on Mum! :D

And that he's large enough for you to curl up in his lap.

[snicker] Good one, Mum! Yes, that's lovely image, isn't it? Funny as all hell, but lovely at the same time. [silly smile]

He offers mum an arm, Sala took the other and they head off toward the lift bay together.

Hehehe! Nice wrap! :D

Angie

And you know it's crazy but the instant image was the Mum was Dorothy, Sean, the Tinman, and Sala the Lion. So, now they are permanently set in my pea-sized brain that way. hehe

Oh, Mum is actually quite sneaky with her direct questions cuz she knows they're expected so she asks them and then just reads their body language and more what they aren't saying.
