Cally was camped out on the couch, flipping through the channels of the TV until she found something interesting.

Ooooh, Mythbusters marathon.

[ooc: Open! I'm bored, but at work, so interaction may be sliiiightly slow, sorry.]

"Good point," Cally said. "Didn't even think about the heat." She shrugged. "Can't really think of anything else."

[nadiathesaint]

". . . well, I'm still working on my story, if you want to keep helping. They're on a pirate ship, now."

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

"Oooh, pirates," Cally said. "This might be the best story ever, at this rate."

[nadiathesaint]

"Well, I'm hoping it's at least entertaining."

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

"You can't go wrong with pirates," Cally said. "Just a lot of swashing and buckling and, oooh, scantily clad people."

[nadiathesaint]

Orrrrr not so clad people, as in the case of the pirate captain this story. . . .

"They're hunting a mermaid.'

"I wonder where the inspiration for that came," Cally said, smirking. "You're not, like, writing actual people in your story, are you?"

[nadiathesaint]

"No, of course not! mostlysometimes."

Cally nudged Nadia with an elbow and raised an eyebrow.

[nadiathesaint]

"sometimesmostlyfictionalsortof. . . ."

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

Cally switched which eyebrow was raised.

"And there's. . . you know, going on?"

[nadiathesaint]

"Only of a consensual nature."

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

"Well, yeah," Cally said. "I'm just... with people... I have to read this when you're done."

[nadiathesaint]

Nadia blushed. ". . . Maybe."

"You're too modest," Cally said. "I'm sure it'll be great."

[nadiathesaint]

"Well, I think its fun."

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

"And I rarely think you're wrong," Cally said with a smile.

[nadiathesaint]

"See, I still wonder if you have an exagerated idea of my skills."

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

"Well, I know you're really good at a lot of things," Cally pointed out. "Why should this be any different?"

[nadiathesaint]

"Because English isn't my first language and I've never tried writing a story before?"

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

"Oh," Cally said. "I guess that's a good point. But I have faith in you!" Cally gave a big grin and two thumbs up.

[nadiathesaint]

Nadia smiled back. "Thanks."
