(no subject)

There was a gothboy over in the corner, tucked away into a booth, though you wouldn't know it to look at him, except maybe for the chipped nailpolish, black of course, and maybe a hint of smudged liner around his eyes.

Well, and the fact that he was dressed head to toe in black, but there were other people besides goths who did that, right? Like assassins and theives and things?

He was going through another sleepless patch, or maybe an extention of the same one, sometimes it was difficult to tell really. He had cocoa, and a bowl of macaroni that was half-eaten. He also had a notebook, but mostly he was just staring at it, not writing in it.

(lunchtime, 'bout fifteen minutes left, then slowtimey, if that works for you, tag away)

And a Billy, able to talk thesze days, wanders by.

"Clive? Are you okay?"

Both brows arched, slightly, blinking up from his staring match with the macaroni, "Huh? Oh, yeah, fine, just haven't been sleeping well."

Billy nods.

"I know that feeling. Any particular reason? Or just evil sleeplessness?"

He shrugged, "Dreams I think, but I never remember them once I'm awake again, so I dunno for sure."

He blinked again, "No notebook today." He noticed things, eventually.

Billy grins.

"Been cured. Took a lot, but it was done. I owe a few people a lot for it. But it feels good to be able to talk."

His smile was crooked, but it was a smile at least, "Always good to hear." He paused, stirring the dregs of the macaroni, "Well, not the owing part, but the cured part."

Billy nods.

"Wish I could help you out, but I dont know anything about dreams, sorry."

He smiles.

"What else have you been up to?"

He shrugged, "Not much, got infected with Music a while back, got over that though without too much damage." He tilted his head, bangs sweeping across one eye, "How about you?"

"Just physical training, trying to get cured, and working on learning more about computers and guitars. Glad you got through the music thing okay. A lot of weirdness happens here."
