mnt_mikeBefore Mike retreated to his favorite "basking" spot out by the Lake, he left a note for Sallie with Bar.
Sallie,
Pop outside when you get this. There's a break in the rain that's just too good to pass up.
- Mike
Included with the note is a crudely drawn map to the aforementioned basking spot.

But her expression clears as Sallie shakes her head. Bernard did leave, eventually.

"Bernard was kind of like...a drama magnet though? Like, everything was very POW and BAM with him. Not so much unstable as...unpredictable? Probably why him and Raph got along so well. But...that might have been why?"

Date: 2009-09-02 06:11 pm (UTC)She closes her mouth again. Sallie's thinking.
Finally: "I'm not giving up my land at home."

Date: 2009-09-02 06:14 pm (UTC)He takes a breath before kipping up to a standing position.
"No one's asking you to. I'm just asking if you wouldn't mind giving me a hand keeping an eye on the land here."

Date: 2009-09-02 06:15 pm (UTC)Don't think Sallie hasn't factored that in too.
no subject
Date: 2009-09-02 06:18 pm (UTC)Don't even really know what made me think of asking you the other day either. It wasn't like...something I'd been thinking about at all. Just...poof. And there it was."
Most of Mike's ideas happen that way. He's not a huge planner.

Blink.
"Really?!?"

Date: 2009-09-02 06:24 pm (UTC)"If Bar is okay with me, and so long as I can still maintain work on my land. That is very important for me and I can't lose that."

Date: 2009-09-02 06:28 pm (UTC)"Maaaaaaybe. But don't worry, I promise to go easy on you."
Those hands? Still up.

Date: 2009-09-02 06:33 pm (UTC)"Yeeeaaah, about that. I have no real idea."

Date: 2009-09-02 06:34 pm (UTC)"C'mon then. I ain't getting any younger."
Sallie starts walking back to the bar without waiting to see if Mike follows her.

Date: 2009-09-02 06:37 pm (UTC)"oh boy."
With that, he scrambles to find his shoes, and then as fast as he can he clambers to put his shoes on and catch up with Sallie at the same time.
