picking up the pieces now - where to begin

[cricketycricket]

[today, anyone looking for him - or not, even! - will find Five in the library, combing and raiding the stacks for anything pertaining to the ruined tower Felix expressed interest in. he's got maps and stacks of books and his copy of the old journal all spread out on a table, poring through them all. his Eevee, Nyssa, is sleeping soundly in the sun on one of the window seats.

there's also a pitcher of lemonade and a plate of watercress finger sandwiches sitting on a small folding table nearby, because you can't get food on the books, no no.]

Well, things have certainly been rather non-stop lately, haven't they? I feel like as much as we've been through, I've not done a thing at all in the way of keeping up on things. Well, other than bringing Legato his coat. [ahem] Yet again, the things I think of and mean to do keep getting pushed aside in favor of more immediate events ... I feel as though there are at least a few trains of thought that I've completely and totally lost, and need to go back and try to pick up, now that things are ... well ... passably normal.

Anyone else having this problem, perchance?

Oh, and -- for those of you working with Felix on his latest project? I'm in the library, going over some things, if you'd care to join me.

No, actually. [He sounds pretty cheerful about it. Haha, rude.] Not at the moment.

[It takes a lot to dislodge thoughts that are really important -- but when it does happen, it's basically the worst feeling in existence. See: March.]

[cricketycricket]

Well, I'm happy that at least one of us can continue their work unimpeded. [and he genuinely is. hooray.] What're you working on, presently?

OH MY GOD HOW DID I MISS THIS I AM THE WORST AT EVERYTHING

[workaphilic]

Oh, this and that. Had a new development on a behavioral project of mine, very promising.

IT'S OKAY I STILL LOVE YOU

[cricketycricket]

[he hums pleasantly, smiling at the journal] How very intriguing. I don't suppose I could have the honor and privilege of some detail?

[workaphilic]

Ah, that would contaminate the results. Can't have that, can we? As much as I appreciate your discretion, it's a very delicate design, and I am very invested in the outcome.

[cricketycricket]

I see. Well, then, I shall wait patiently to hear your results.

[workaphilic]

You'll be one of the first, I'm sure.
