[ The name on this post is still Bariyan e Kodhi, but its current owner is mostly certainly not Bariyan.

Cat's sitting at a desk, elbow propped against its surface, his hand in his hair. The collar of his shirt has been pulled away to show the mess that's been made of his neck -- frost-nipped skin, bruising, great big bloody scratches. He's made no effort to tend to his injuries yet. He has, however, taken time to make sure that his hair is completely perfect.

He scowls. ]

Tell me, did anyone else here get physically assaulted by their roommate the moment they opened their fucking door? Or was I the only one who got tossed in with a goddamn psychopath?

[ Cat paws at his neck and looks surprised to feel blood-- he pulls his hand away hastily, tries to wipe it off on the back of his other hand, snarling in irritation. ]

This is the exact reason why I don't... like... sharing.

[ He's barely finished spitting his last syllable before he turns the tablet off. Then he picks it up and flings it at the wall, shrieking, but thankfully that portion of his incredibly mature and reasonable fit doesn't make it onto the network. ]

Someone who used to be his friend.

[boughtabookstore]

Used to be?

[scornful]

That was a very long time ago. He ruined that friendship. Not me.

[boughtabookstore]

And that makes you treating his friends like this just fine?

[scornful]

The friends of my enemies turn out to be my enemies too, more often than not.

Would I be wrong, here?

[boughtabookstore]

You might have been, if you'd bothered to be remotely civil to us.

[scornful]

Ha. [ Quietly: ] Somehow, I doubt it. Wouldn't you think that the enemies of your friends would be your enemies too, Ms. Small?

[boughtabookstore]

I'd think that I take everyone on their merits, and yours look very slim.

[scornful]

[ Cat bursts out into laughter. ]

Slim, but not hopeless, eh?

[boughtabookstore]

I'm being diplomatic.
