[NOW IF YOU WOULD KINDLY IGNORE THAT THIS WAS MEANT TO BE UP A WEEK AGO Boris is feeling the effects of the moon cycle. And he's looking for connections, he is. But there are more important things to do.]

Hey! Paging all programmers, technicians-- actually, I'll take any computer freak available. Lend a cat a hand. I've got an issue here.

{A big issue.}

We've got a special problem, and I'll take anyone with skill.

{Though 'special' is an understatement. That rat never fails to annoy.}

So if you think you can help out, tell me here. I'll take anyone, honest!

{Or maybe not. If they fudge up the job, they're good as dead.}

[At that thought, he sighs and his ears flatten against his head. It's clear that Boris isn't in high spirits right now.]

{Hang on, Chii...}

[Oh! Boris' spirits are picking up! :D She doesn't know why, of course, but that's always a good thing. Have a cheery smile, Boris.

Mermaid can't help much, but she knows that she can smile. And she'll do her very best to do so.]

{Is smiling for Boris. Is wanting Boris happier.}

[... a-awwww. He's scratching the back of his head and laughing a little.]

Awwww, Razette.

{Jeeze, so sweet.}

I'm all right. I was happier as soon as you called!

... you did not see that fail

[B-but that implies that he was sad before, right? D: Mermaid's ears instant droop, and she looks into the camera with a worried frown. She points at Boris, as though asking something.]

{Something make Boris sad? Is worrying. Is wanting to know.}

actually went to check my notifs to see it--

[carnivalcat.livejournal.com]

Well, I'm getting help with it now. So it doesn't matter. Don't worry about it.

You suck, Dana. :|a;;;

[preces.livejournal.com]

[Have more drooping ears, Boris. D: Mermaid wants to helllllp. Or rather, mermaid knows something is wrong, but Boris doesn't want her to help, and she's feeling down.]

{Is wanting to help... Is wanting to help friend-Boris.}

I do it out of love? <3

[carnivalcat.livejournal.com]

You do help, Razette! I just need you with me to keep my spirits up, okay?

{You'd get hurt if you tried to help in any other way...}

... ilu too sob

[... D: She understands what he's trying to say, and she's not going to hold any pretenses. She's just a mermaid -- there's not much she can do.

But she can smile, and she can sing, and so she'll be smiling sadly and pointing at herself, as though miming a song.]

{Is safe. Will be safe. Is wanting to sing for friend-Boris.}

<333

[carnivalcat.livejournal.com]

{Sing...?}

... well hey, if you can manage better than the old man, I'll be a willing audience member.

[preces.livejournal.com]

[She'll be more than happy to. Razette opens her mouth, and begins.

It's a beautiful melody, lilting and gentle, and she sings her heart out.]

[carnivalcat.livejournal.com]

[Boris isn't much for sitting still and appreciating music. But if this is what Razette wants to do for him, he's more than happy to listen. He's a little surprised at how good it sounds, really. He's so used to the atrocious sounds that Gowland offers...]

{Heh... Not bad at all.}

[preces.livejournal.com]

[When the last note dies away, she props herself against the dreamberry screen and smiles into it. Have a cheery smile.]

{Boris like?}

[carnivalcat.livejournal.com]

[He nods and grins.]

You've got talent, Razette. I admit to being impressed!

[preces.livejournal.com]

[She beams at this compliment, and brings her scaly webbed hands together in a gesture of glee.]

{Friend-Boris grinning. Is happy to see friend-Boris grin.

Friend-Boris better?}

[carnivalcat.livejournal.com]

Of course I'm better. That's what I've been telling you.

[preces.livejournal.com]

[Then she is happy.]

{Happy~}

[carnivalcat.livejournal.com]

Yeah? That's good. Stay happy, okay Razette? Your smile manages to cheer me up more than I can say.
