Chapter Five- ...And I Have Been Found Wanting

Filtered to Tamaki
You were a great Host King, my liege. I shall… I shall miss you dearly.

Filtered to Aziraphale
I don’t know what to say. It seems selfish to wish you hadn’t left, but I do.
… Live well, my angelic friend.

Filtered to Murphy MacManus
What the hell were you talking about? The doctors in the clinic said it was a loss.

Filtered to Gwaine and Cole
…I need help.

Filtered to Phoenix
Have a moment?

~~Filtered to Felix~~
~~Are you~~

[After all that, he tries to come up with an apology to all the people he might've hurt when he was sober. But he just can't admit that it was his fault.]

... M'sorry, but .... what? ... Who IS this?

...This is Geoffrey Chaucer.

[...]

Who is this?

[what the fffffffff]

Murphy MacManus. Who'd'ja think it was?

[That is what Geoff is thinking. D:]

You...sound... awfully different...

[the wheels in his head are turning] Okay, two questions. What'd I actually tell ya? I mean, what'd we talk about? ... And what did I look like, if ya saw me?

It...It was over the journals. You told me I might have some horrible diseases. Gave me a heart attack.

[Oh. Wait.]

That was an impostor, wasn't it?

Sure, I'm not doing anything. What's up?

[Dictated like a boss]

I need-

[...]

Phoenix??!!

[ALL THE LAUGHING]

Hey, Geoff! It's me!

...Phoenix!

[He laughs happily along with him.] I can't... I can't believe...

It's really good to hear your voice at last. How did you...?

It's kind of funny, really...

...I fell out a window, hit my head, stayed knocked out for a week, and when I woke up I could talk.

[There's a pause as Geoff rereads that sentence.]

You... you fell out a window??!! Are you all right?!

[Instant response, there.]

Geoff? Are you okay?

[He trusts this guy with his life, and he was the first friend he made in the castle. Of course his voice is filled with worry.]

Yes, yes. Not an emergency or anything. I just...I just need advice. But you can't laugh.

Edited 2012-02-15 09:54 (UTC)

[This sounds serious, man, of course he wouldn't laugh.]

Sure, I'll help how I can.

[He's so totally embarrassed about this. He's only telling Cole because he's one of his best friends.]

I... I made my intentions clear to a lady and was rejected. Cole, I'm terrible with the women here!

...

[ALL. OF. THE. SELF. CONTROL.]

Well, you're far from home. Women are different where you're from.

[NOT LAUGHING SILENTLY, NOPE]

I've tried poetry, being subtle, being not so subtle...

I don't understand. Women from other worlds can't be that different, can they?

With what?

[ DOES HE NEED TO STAB SOMEONE? B| ]

[MAYBE STAB GEOFF. HE'S BEING STUPID.]

You cannot laugh.

I won't.

[ He's already trying to bite back a smile. Oh, Geoff, what did you get into? ]

I mean it.

[He goes on with a sigh.]

I...confessed my feelings to a woman and she rejected me. I can't woo any of the women here. I'm hopeless.

[ He does find this funny. And he is tempted to tease his friend. But Geoffrey is also asking him for help and Gwaine is still reeling from his own problems with women, Or rather, woman, to laugh. ]

Don't say that, mate. Women are a difficult lot. Those here are...a lot more difficult than others.
