Subject: I can't think about this crazy day
In reply to: Julian Emberson 's message, "Re: gratitude for your attitude." on 20:10:21 05/30/02 Thu

Celeste laughed, "No." she answered. "I haven't forgotten who you are, master Julian, after all you are the so-called 'prince' of this school, who am I to judge?" she asked. "OH! Wait, that's right..." she rolled her eyes, "I'm the princess." she said playfully.

She listened to his next comments and simply shook her head. "Why do you seem so sad and grounded to me?" she repeated. "Well..." she rolled her eyes, "Compared to clueless, blissfully and probably unrightfully happy me you are." she replied.

As she heard what he said next her heart sank. Was he stalling to think of the nicest way to tell her that she wasn't? One way to find out. "What kind of artist? Music? Painting? Theatre? Writing? You are going to have to be more specific. Besides, what is this? You, who knows me like no one else does, can't even answer without asking me a question in return?" she said raising her eyebrows. "My, my Julian, we are losing our touch lately aren't we?" she said holding back the 'see what alcohol does to you?' part.

"Tschh," He sneered at her, arms wrapping around himself. He blinked slowly, failing to rid his nerves of the alcohol completely. "You've got a lot of work to do before you become the princess. And sorry for not being bubbly," He remarked, sarcastic. He rolled his eyes. "It's just really not my nature, you know."

He glared at her abruptly, irked suddenly. It happened often with him, no matter who it was. And he didn't like the fact that the more time somebody spent with him, the more he began to get irritated at their every action. His slapped himself inwardly. "Do I?" He asked, smirking. "I never usually spent conversation being intellectual with you, Celeste. It's a bit of a change. I never asked you about yourself and vice versa. You wouldn't be able to tell me what and who my favorite people are just the same. I'm a bit sorry to admit it, but it's rather true." He sat there, pensive again.

"But, go ahead, shoot, go for it. I've got time. Musicians, painters, actors, authors, directors, playwrights, poets... whatever comes off the top of your head. I'd like to know, honest." He was looking forward to seeing what Celeste knew, hoping maybe she wasn't as clueless as anybody else. Julian mused smiling to himself.

> >size="1">"Really?" she questioned, "Well then you are just going to have to show me what to do, I thought I was on the right track." she said palyfully.

Celeste sat still as Julian got all upset as he usually did for no reason, Celeste, fortunately this time, kept her cool. She took a breath and looked him straight the eye, "The only problem with your theory is I said you knew me, I never said I knew you." she raised her eyebrows.

"Let me think...musicians..." she said, and even though he serisouly wanted her honest answers she couldn't help playing around, "Oh what do the african-americans call him? Snoopy dog?" she laughed, of course she knew what the proper name was but she was just having fun. "I'm kidding, I don't know, not that big on music. MY parents are partial to the classical stuff like Mozart though, so I guess that is OK." she said. "Painters isn't tough at all, my whole room has Monet all over it." she said beginning to list things off on her hand, "You have lost me on actors, no clue. I don't watch movies or T.V. very much I'm always out somewhere, doing something. Besides all the muggle stuff bores me after awhile. Authors-well that is hard because I know books I like I just don't remember who wrote them. Again I don't watch movies so I don't know much about directors, either. As for playwrights, no contest, definatley Shakespeare, of course I've only read Romeo and Juliet and As You Like It, but they were good. Harder than it sounds, I don't spend ALOT of time on artsy stuff though you know? I like to be out with people, I'm a people person."

"That's what I said," He chortled, unaffected by her repetition of his lengthy reply. He stood up, tired of his position, grabbing his rapier from its place against the coat rack and parried the air. He advanced, moving rather far away from her, swishing all the same.

"Mozart, Monet, Shakespeare," he smirked, shouting that audibly. He stopped, pivoted, and began to parry Celeste's direction, purposefully heading for her with his rapier. At about one foot's length, he ceased his rapier, the blade just before Celeste's chin. "All to familiar, but I wouldn't hold it against you. They were and still quite are agreeably brilliant." He laughed mirthfully, bringing his rapier down and sliding backwards into a proper stand in replacement of his fencing stance. "And people person indeed, Celeste." He joked.

Celeste watched Julian's move with his sword, she knew little about fencng. No matter, he seemed to move with grace, something Celeste was very in touch with. However, when he came back, her eyes grew wide as he came closer and closer to her face, and then just stopped. "Don't do that again." Celeste said exhaling.

"Well of coure they are familiar, they're brilliant and famous. I go for the stuff that actually gets good reviews, or is well-known." she stated matter-of-factly.

Then she gave Julian a suspicious look as he finished with his remarks and raised one eyebrow. "Why do I get the feeling everything I just said got turned around?" she asked.

He nodded, movements becoming stale. He brought his blade up to prevent some sort of ennui seizing him, examining it, aloofly aware that Celeste was still there. The alcohol influenced him to become more flippant towards anybody, liable to say anything he wanted and thought with control, just not over his impulsiveness. Perhaps maybe a little, but in this case, his actions showed everything.

"What do you mean by that, Celeste darling? What have you uttered that could have been slapped to your face?" He looked down cheerily at her. It was almost frightening to his inner consciousness, had it not been happening quite so frequently. "You've been lovely the entire conversation!"

Julian then became wary of his burning cheeks. He walked over to the duffel lying beside the coat rack and began to strip himself free of his uniform, bare, skinny chest glimmering with a sheen of sweat. His traditional training Kenneth Cole windbreakers were what his equally thin hips donned. He bent down to grab a black towel from his duffel, patting his neck and chest. He felt a bit breezier.

Celeste watched Julian move, back and forth, back and forth. It was even more interesting then watching the expression on his face as he read a book. "Well what did you mean when you said..." Celeste stopped in midsentence as she saw Julian undressing, and turned her eyes away the minute they met bare skin.

She didn't know why it bothered her, like she shouldn't be watching him when he didn't have himself completely covered up, maybe because she thought desire would get the better of her.

Whatever it was, Celeste's eye refused to swivel back over to Julian, and she continued speaking a small quiver in her voice. "When you said, 'people person indeed'?" she asked.

Out of the corner of her eye she spotted Julian and quickly moved her gaze away.

Julian plopped back down on his seat, mind altering subjects a bit. He yawned, placing his hand over his mouth vertically as a prince would properly do and ran his fingers through his hair. "I heard "The Sum of All Butterbeers" was a good flick to see. But I want to watch the sub of this one new French film called "Insomnie". It stars Rueben Willemme, you know? That hilarious wizard that was in "Mistress Trustwater"? A friend Virlastyn told me it was great,"

He exhaled and put the towel around his neck, craning his head back in fatigue. "Oh man, oh man, is it hot in here." He frowned, closing his eyes and letting the cool of the armchair seep into his skin.

Celeste heard the subject change, and was even a little bit greatful. Yet, he still hadn't put his shirt back on! Any minute now he was going to notice the unnatural shyness surrounding the vibrant, flamboyant girl, and then what? HSe'd have to turn back around and control herself. She had self control. She had self control. 'I have self control' she thought to herself.

"Well," she tried to say normally, and look at his face and not elsewhere, "like I said, I don't watch movies that much, I mean I'd go if it was like I was goin with my friends or something, probably never otherwise." she said managing to not look away.

When Julian suggested that it was hot, she shook her head, "The wind is actually chilling me. I'm so cold." she said rubbing the goosbumps on her arms and bare legs.
