I need to get a watch for flying, but it's been so long since I wore one regularly that I never remember to pick one up. I usually have a computer screen, phone, or other clock to hand, and I hate having things on my wrists.
Giles! I accidentally killed Spike. That's okay, right?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You may just have to, as if in Rome (and doing as the Romans do), get some fleece--the official clothing of the greater Metro Vancouver area.
Oh, hells no. ita only buys new clothes for a weekend trip if it means leather or formalwear. So totally definitely not fleece. I do have a short winter jacket, but it's the ugliest thing ever (well, the Russian coat's not lovely, but I love it), but the idea of going on a carefree vacation in it and being all recapture-university (it's my university best friend) feels off.
I don't think I've worn a watch in over a year. Not sure what's so special about today. And it's a big 'un. This face but on an inch plus wide leather strap. So I can't really forget it's there. Mostly I'm fine with the time. It's somewhere around. On the computer. Phone. Cellphone. Car. Wall. Today I guess I'm wearing a red top and I wanted more red. Also I might as well wear the thing before it plows through more batteries. Also, fire. Fire pretty.

it seems much more potentially useful for self defense
What do you intend to do with it?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
And, after much deliberation, I got the part I wanted.
YAY
ita, do you want me to send you some fleece? I think I even have a black pull over.

I think I'll be good, thanks. I can just do monochrome under the burgundy leather coat.
If I were really talented (or, you know, normal) I'd know which of my colour palette worked well with it, but in my head it's all or nothing.

Okay!
Should I warn in advance that I expect to be really bored today and you should expect lots of FCM/BINAO?

Oh noes, not pictures of pretty people, not that! Anything but that!
Green goes with burgundy, doesn't it? I only have one green sweater. Yikes. Just the thought makes me nervous.

I may not be able to do the pictures on the ipad, but maybe I can steal the laptop while Juliana is not using it.

Because books.
But it's outerwear! It doesn't have to match the outfit underneath!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

A., what Amy said. B., burgundy is a neutral.
