Harmony has been a very busy place these last couple of weeks. It's very strange, because I remember this place being quiet... that's one of the reasons I've always loved it here. Hopefully all those affected in the certain incidents are doing well.

In retrospect, my days have been fairly quiet... Not a lot of business for the funeral home, excluding the passing of an elderly gentleman. All this spare time has given me the opportunity to catch up on my repair work.

Speaking of, Shizuka, I finished your Grandmothers' watch... It's an antique, so I would take good care of it if I were you. I'd speculate it is easily a hundred years old. I would have cleaned it up for you as well, but some people are fond of the aged look. There were some pieces missing internally that required replacing, so the value is not what it might have been. But it works now, and that is something, I hope.

If anyone else has anything that needs repair, I have found myself with a lot of free time, so I would be available.

Strangely enough, I have not been able to locate my glasses. This isn't a terrible loss, considering I don't really need them. But it does make small repairs difficult ... and I've grown quite attached to them. Fred, did I leave them behind when I visited last? I can't seem to find them at my apartment, or at the Funeral Home.

Perhaps I should arrange an appointment and get a new pair. It's been long enough... I've had that pair for many years now.

I hope they turn up, anyway. If not, I'll buy a new pair.

No glasses here! I don't know what you've done with them.

"I don't know what you've done with them" ... That has a decidedly negative feel, doesn't it?

I didn't mean to lose them, you know.

In fact, I know a certain someone who has been nagging at me to replace them. It would not be beyond them to hoodwink my poor glasses in attempts to get her way. Her feelings are slightly hypocritical, really, considering she's worn the same pair for five years.

Are you suggesting that I kidnapped your glasses! Why, I would never!

But I wish I'd thought of it!

I find myself not quite able to trust you.

If you do have my glasses, I hope you would return them.

Unless you find yours mysteriously missing.

I swear, I don't have your glasses. Maybe you should get contacts, Gabriel; you have really pretty eyes.

...Well. Thank you? I could say the same for you, you know.

I don't wear them all the time, but they do have their uses.

You're welcome!

I like you with and without, but this is a good excuse to get new frames!

I was actually hoping to find a similar pair, if I had to get a new pair.

Okay, I have an idea. Let's team up this weekend and cover the town. We'll look all over for your glasses, and if we don't find them, we'll go pick out something just a little different? But the same kind of style.

[info]ticktocktick

Sounds like a plan, though I'm not so sure I want an extraordinarily different style...

I am going to search the apartment thoroughly. Perhaps Elle has knocked them under something. What is strange is that I don't usually lose things.

I don't think anyone would've taken them!

Let me know if you find them. I'm really sure they're not here, but I'll check again, just in case.

I don't think anybody would want them. ...Excluding me, of course.

I appreciate it, Fred.

Don't say things like that, or I'll feel compelled to come up with something really demanding.

You couldn't! You're too nice to me.

I think it is because Elle likes you. She makes decisions for me now, did you hear?

I'm sure I could. But you'd have to give me a fair amount of time to think of something. Right now all I can think of is 'vacuum the funeral home' and while that is time consuming, it is not exactly demanding.

Does she? I love her so much, give her a hug from me.

And you know if you need help over there, I don't mind coming and pitching it! You've turned enough pages of music in your time for me; I owe you.

[info]ticktocktick

I don't believe she'll tolerate a hug from me. Only petting. She's trained me well.

I have it pretty well under control, considering there isn't a whole lot of business. Usually it's just me and an empty building. And hopefully, I've gotten better at turning pages over the years. Timing is quite literally everything.

You're very welcome. It's a beautiful piece, and it was a shame that it wasn't working.

Have you by any chance seen my glasses?

Your glasses? Last time I saw them, you were wearing them.

Did you check the top drawer of your desk?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]ticktocktick
2009-03-20 09:06 am UTC (link)
Well... yes. A couple of times. They don't seem to be there.

Usually I'm not so forgetful. But, as Fred said, it isn't as if anyone would want them. It's not likely they were stolen.

That's really strange. I'll take a look too, just in case you missed something.

It is quite strange... I must have misplaced them or dropped them somewhere.

I hope to find them, but perhaps I'll just have to buy a new pair.

Well, like I said, I'll comb the office looking for it. Double check where you live, too.

...we could get you some designer frames.

[info]ticktocktick

You don't need to comb the office. It isn't in your job description locate things when I foolishly loose them, after all.

...designer? Aren't all frames designed, to some extent?

So? It's not in your job description to fix my watch for free, either. It's just things people do for one another.

Designer as in, like, brand name. Gucci, Dolce and Gabbana...

Well, I appreciate it. And the watch was no problem, I hate to have you searching for something you might not find. I have no guarantee that the glasses are even there.

Would they look anything like my old glasses?

They might not be, but sometimes a second person can find what you overlooked. It happens to me all the time!

...they could.

[I'm suspecting of certain someone...]

You think I could send you my ipod? It's starting to act really weird.

And good luck finding your glasses! :D

[If Jen has them in a shrine somewhere, that's okay with me XD]

Of course. I have plenty of time, I could get it fixed for you quite quickly.

Thank you. I was hoping that I would find them after cleaning my home, but no such luck.

Mr. Gray, I, uhm, think you forgot your glasses here.

...They have black-rimmed frames?

[It's fine!]

Oh, you found them? Thank you ... I can't believe I left them behind. I'm usually not so forgetful.

Would you mind me stopping by to pick them up?

No, of course not! Come whenever you want.

Yes, I suppose so. I'll be there a little after noon, if that is alright with you.

Do you need anything? I can bring it with me when I come.
