Who: Apt C-2, anyone (especially fellow Apt-Cers)
When: Day 58, night (slightly backdated)
Where: Apt C-2 & hallway
What: MY hovercraft FLAT IS FULL OF EEL

[God knows how this feat was managed, but somehow an intrepid soul has managed to a) kill a 10-foot eel and b) drag the sodding thing back to Apt C-2. Mostly. There's a bit of tail sticking out the open door and into the corridor, which is causing a certain doctor no end of consternation.]

Sherlock!

What?

[confirmed_bachelor]

[having difficulty finding a place to step over it in a way that won't result in a sprained ankle]

How am I supposed to get in?

[not_one_of_them]

Well you can't fly in.

[confirmed_bachelor]

...

This is on purpose, isn't it.

[not_one_of_them]

Of course it was, it was on your list, wasn't it.

[confirmed_bachelor]

That's not what I meant and you know it.

[gawd, I am not going to get a clear spot for a portal while people are out and worked up over the Lupe stuff]

[not_one_of_them]

Well you have one now.

[confirmed_bachelor]

[s...sigh]

How on earth did you manage it?

[not_one_of_them]

[just giving him one of his "I know something you don't know" smiles, already picking apart the eel head]

[confirmed_bachelor]

I thought you enjoyed explaining your cleverness.

[sits by the door, waiting for things to slow down]

[not_one_of_them]

[glances at him]

What's going on outside then?

[confirmed_bachelor]

A whole mess of things.

[pause]

Though - the eel will help greatly with one.

[not_one_of_them]

[turns to look at him more fully]

[confirmed_bachelor]

[this is the face of someone who needs a drink and a week's worth of sleep]

I'll explain once I'm in. Give me a moment.

[not_one_of_them]

...

[fine, leaving the gaping wound in the eel to clear a place]

[confirmed_bachelor]

[ty honey you're the best. gets up once he starts, helping him do that.]

Ah - thank you.

[not_one_of_them]

Sit.

[confirmed_bachelor]

[goes to sit on the sofa obediently]

You really didn't get any blood on it.

[not_one_of_them]

It was recently cleaned.

[confirmed_bachelor]

... yes, it was. But it ought not to be bloody regardless.

[not_one_of_them]

That's why there's no blood on it.

[here, have a cuppa]

[confirmed_bachelor]

[tea ♥ or at least he hopes it's tea. relaxing quite a bit at that.]

... ta. Sorry. Long day. Which piece of bad news d'you want first?

[not_one_of_them]

[tea no sugar]

All of it.

[confirmed_bachelor]

[perfection]

... Better one first, then.

I need your help.

[not_one_of_them]

Obvious. Keep going.
