Claudia's at the Bar, people-watching and chowing down on some spaghetti.
The first thing she did last night was give that stupid guitar back; the second thing was go upstairs and sleep. She still looks a little tired, and while her door's back, she hasn't mde use of it just yet; she's trying to recover a little more first.
And, it seems, she has some correspondence to catch up on.
"--I missed the wedding because of this mess? Craptastic."

(OOC: Subject to work-related slowtime this afternoon, but open until it scrolls.)

CC: > HELLO CLAUDIA DONOVAN

[claudiometer]

RB: Hey, D0G.
RB: See you got the Morse code thing straightened out.

CC: > D0G IS NOW EASIER TO UNDERSTAND

[claudiometer]

RB: Good.
RB: I, uh... totally missed the wedding, didn't I?

[g00d_d0ggie]

CC: > YES
CC: > ALYX MARRIED GORDON FREEMAN TWO DAYS TWENTY-ONE HOURS EIGHT MINUTES AND SEVENTEEN SECONDS AGO

[claudiometer]

RB: God DONUT. Stupid Milliplagues.
RB: I only just got the invitation. But it's been a weird couple weeks.
RB: No one there's bursting into song when they shouldn't be, are they?

CC: > VOODOO SANG KARAOKE AT BOTH WEDDING RECEPTIONS
CC: > VOODOO IS NOT A GOOD SINGER

Does that count?

[claudiometer]

RB: ...While I'm sure that was traumatic for everyone involved, except possibly the singer, bad karaoke isn't what I had in mind.
RB: This was... I spent the last two weeks playing guitar in the middle of the freaking bar. Audiences are not my thing.

[g00d_d0ggie]

CC: > WHY DOES CLAUDIA DONOVAN NOT LIKE AUDIENCES

[claudiometer]

RB: It's... not my thing.
RB: I don't like showing off things that aren't my strong point. And that is... definitely not my strong point.

[g00d_d0ggie]

CC: > CAN CLAUDIA DONOVAN PRACTICE AND PLAY THE GUITAR BETTER (y/n)

[claudiometer]

RB: I have. I've been playing since I was like 13.
RB: But I'm not that *good* and I'm really not in it for the audience anyway.
So she tells herself, anyway.

CC: > CLAUDIA DONOVAN CAN ONLY GET BETTER IF CLAUDIA DONOVAN PRACTICES
CC: > SKILLS ARE DEVELOPED BY PRACTICE
CC: > D0G WAS NOT ALWAYS GOOD AT FETCH BUT D0G PRACTICED AND LEARNED HOW TO FETCH BETTER

[claudiometer]

RB: ...I appreciate the thought, D0G, but that's not exactly what I'm getting at here.
RB: Anyway, the point for the moment is I was doing something I don't normally do, and I'm also not sure if I really ate in the last week, never mind what or how much. Whatever this Milliways plague was, it was *nasty.*

[g00d_d0ggie]

CC: > IS MILLIWAYS PLAUGE OVER (y/n)

[claudiometer]

RB: Yeah, it's over now.
RB: I still feel like crap, and I haven't gone home yet, but it's over.

RB: Thanks, D0G. Means a lot.
