7th Joke - At Least Someone Is Laughing [Action | Multi]

[xochipilli_cursed]

[[Aaron has been laying low since the little note incident. Though even that worry was shelved in light of a few new problems.

First his drone sister gave him his Christmas gift. It was a picture of two little kids. Fraternal twins, a brother and sister. Aaron is not pleased with this gift but tucks it away in a journal he bought for himself. He'll spend a day in his room calling out of school sick.

Second issue came after he got a card in the mail. All it said was, "Ha, ha, ha!" Since then Aaron hasn't slept well. That would explain the bags under his eyes and drifting off during the day at least.

Of course third was Percy. He went to visit him and found him acting strange. People had told Aaron about droning but this was his first real experience that hit home.]]

[[You might catch him during one of the following over the next few days.]]

A)
[[Aaron is awake anyways. Before the sun rises he is out delivering gifts. Certain people will find little wrapped presents that say "From: Aaron" on them. Merry Belated X-mas miss_enma_ai, dodo_master, evers_hacker, hungry_monster, generose, and doastheromansdo!]]
((Tag for your gift! If not I'll get you later.))

B)
[[Aaron goes to class. He'll probably fall asleep in several of his classes at some point. Any student feel nice enough to wake him up before the teacher catches him? Any teachers notice?]]

C)
[[He doesn't stick around between classes to hang out like he usually would. He heads straight for his next class and tries to keep conversations short.]]

D)
[[Aaron is at work at the bowling alley. Every now and then he'd find a place to hide and try to just rest his eyes a moment. Not even five minutes later he'll awake with a start and get back to work. He seems far too stressed out for this job.]]

E)
[[Aaron is stalking Percy Jackson. Not approaching him, just watching him and unsure what to do. Just kind of hoping Percy will snap out of this and everything will go back to how it was.]]

F)
[[Aaron is out at night trying to do anything other than stopping and falling asleep. He'll be jogging down the streets, exploring the park, and generally keeping mobile for as long as he can before having to give up and return home.]]

Perhaps.

Hatfield, in England.

"So you're the real thing?"

[someday-a-queen.livejournal.com]

The real what?

[Yes she does have an idea of what you're talking about.]

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"The real Elizabeth Tudor?"

[someday-a-queen.livejournal.com]

Yes. I am.

Princess Elizabeth Tudor.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"Oh, oh yeah. Princess before Queen.

Well, I'm glad I got to meet you like this Elizabeth. Well, not falling asleep in class but you get what I mean right?"

[someday-a-queen.livejournal.com]

So I have been told.

[So far away from the throne at the moment.]

I confess I do not.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"In person, in class. I'm still not sure what I think about this different times and different worlds thing but here we are all just classmates right?"

[someday-a-queen.livejournal.com]

Yes, that is true.

[Not really sure what you're implying.]

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

[[Is just assuming she did.]]

"So, how long have you been in Mayfield?"

[someday-a-queen.livejournal.com]

Since late July.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"Sorry to hear.

You at least end up with an okay family?"

[someday-a-queen.livejournal.com]

At the moment I'm afraid it's only myself and the Doctor. I've meet a few interesting people here at least.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"That's good.

So what do you do now that you are here?"

[someday-a-queen.livejournal.com]

Go to school, avoid being killed and try to keep up with my studies. Sometimes I go to Church.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"How about for fun? Any hobbies?"

[someday-a-queen.livejournal.com]

Needlework, music. I recently received my lute back from the town.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"A lute?"

[someday-a-queen.livejournal.com]

A musical instrument.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"Oh! Okay. Are you pretty good with it?"

[someday-a-queen.livejournal.com]

[She smiles]

I'm fairly decent at it. I've written a few pieces for it.

My father was always very interested in music. He made sure all of us learned.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"Wow, that's kinda like someone I knew back home, Sarah's dad. Made her learn piano because he thought it would make her smarter when she got older or something.

Still, I'm not great with music but I'd love to hear it sometime if you enjoy playing."

[someday-a-queen.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure about that, but I'm glad I learned.

I wouldn't mind. I have not had the chance to play in a while. But if you would like to hear some music.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"I'll try to make it sometime. Just let me know when you wouldn't mind company.

I'm not too good at the arts or music but I know what I am doing with tools and simple machines like cars. If you need something fixed, let me know."

[someday-a-queen.livejournal.com]

I'll remember that.

....I've never seen half of these "machines" before. Are they very complicated to work with?
