Is Charlie. No guitar tonight--his fingers are still recovering. But he is writing in one of his notebooks, and stopping sometimes to watch the evening crowd.

He has tea. And, perhaps taking a cue from Raven, the plate of cookies is for sharing.

Hopefully he's not too busy for an interruption.
"Writing anything interesting?"

[bloodyrockgod]

"Just trying to figure things out. Not doing very well.

"How're you?"

[the_antiangst]

"Not too bad. Things aren't worrying me as much as they were."

[bloodyrockgod]

"That's good. Friends all in their proper times and all that?"

[the_antiangst]

"Well, that too. There was the thing with Faith, but she's back now, and Mark's still in New York but I'm less worried about him now that he's actually left."

[bloodyrockgod]

"Is she still blue and pregnant?"

[the_antiangst]

"No, she's really back, this time. And I get this feeling she really wouldn't want to know about the whole 'blue and pregnant' thing." He grins.

[bloodyrockgod]

"My lips are sealed.

"Now, Mark . . . was he the one with the sometimes-dead girlfriend?"

[the_antiangst]

"...Possibly you're thinking Roger, there. Mark's girlfriend is very much alive, and in fact ended up going to New York with him."
Angel's so glad that Syfte's not a lunatic.

[bloodyrockgod]

"Okay. So many people and their relationships . . . I have a hard enough time keeping track of my own."

[the_antiangst]

He doesn't really have that problem, as such, but he does know the feeling. "Yeah. plenty of people to keep an eye on around here."

[bloodyrockgod]

Charlie's love life has delicately been referred to as "complicated."

"So what're you doing with yourself tonight?"

[the_antiangst]

"Nothing in particular, really. Was out practicing earlier, but it's too cool to stay outside this late, by now. You?"

[bloodyrockgod]

"Passin' time. Trying to figure out a girl."

[the_antiangst]

"Now that's a task I don't envy."

[bloodyrockgod]

"You're right to, mate." He twiddles his pen a moment.

"Have you ever been in love?"

[the_antiangst]

Angel just smiles. "Of course."

[bloodyrockgod]

Charlie nods, not smiling. "I don't know if I ever have been. And if you have to ask, you haven't been, that's what I've been told."

[the_antiangst]

"Well, it is one of those things where you know when it's happening."

[bloodyrockgod]

"Yeah." He takes a deep breath. "If it's not in a song it doesn't make much sense to me. Maybe I should just write a song, figure out what I really think."
