°007 - from Mandrake's PCD

[John Mandrake comes onto the feed looking, well, cool. His hair is done in a much more fashionable style, his clothes are loose and un-tucked and he has an air of knowing just how awesome he is. He is lounging in a room that seems different to the kind he is usually seen in - as Bartimaeus has currently quit Whipstaff. Oh yes, Bartimaeus is currently in residence in his former master's body and also in a very bad mood with said former master.]

I realise that I have been rather the stick-in-the-mud recently... well, always, but I would like to open myself up to you all. I have no way with women, no real social skills to speak of and my feet smell terrible.

No-one is perfect, you see and I am finally coming to understand that also applies to myself.

In short, I, John Mandrake, am a bit of a prat. I just thought you should all know that.

I was twelve, had to change into a disguise but I was in a hurry and forgot the bottom part.

Why'd you need a disguise?

Needed to sneak in to somewhere a junior minister was planning to murder half of the government to stop him.

Stop making trouble in his body, OK?
saintedsinner: (grump)

That's not good.

[She's quiet for a moment as she places the information before her brow furrows.]

Trapped?

Yeah well, even losers like myself have to do good things from time to time.

Yes. He summoned and bound me in to a pentacle again. He might have been able to get himself out being such an eminent magician and all, but I hope he hurt himself trying. [there is a real bitterness to Bartimaeus' words that he cannot disguise when in Nathaniel's body]

Well, it isn't like I'm unused to him breaking his promises about summoning me.

Hey, it'll probably do the kid good.
saintedsinner: (open shirt boredom)

[personal profile] saintedsinner 2011-12-10 02:21 pm (UTC)(link)
So what good things have you done?

Why are you saying something like that?

[While Bart was originally going for the humiliate-Nathaniel-as-much-as-possible tack, they were still friends (sort of), after all.]

Stopped that minister from killing everyone, stopped a young rebel from being killed and ended up saving most of my country. [he pulls a face] Oh and I guess I saved Bartimaeus, too. Repaying the favour, of course.

He needs to loosen up and stop the annoying habit of trapping his friends in pentacles.
saintedsinner: (sly fox)

[personal profile] saintedsinner 2011-12-10 03:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course.

So what did Barty do for you?

[identity profile] imakefootnotes.livejournal.com 2011-12-10 04:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Only saved me life time and time again, usually at great risk to himself. You know, I should go thank him profusely on all fours and tell him how worthless I am for not thanking him properly before this.
saintedsinner: (finger tapping)

Uh... huh.... -=That's a different mannerism for sure.=-

[identity profile] imakefootnotes.livejournal.com 2011-12-10 04:41 pm (UTC)(link)
What about you?
saintedsinner: (stunned)

[personal profile] saintedsinner 2011-12-10 04:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Me? What about me?

[identity profile] imakefootnotes.livejournal.com 2011-12-10 04:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Anything you'd like to share? [he smiles but it is slightly bordering on the smirky]
saintedsinner: (Blah blah blah whatever)

video

[personal profile] saintedsinner 2011-12-10 04:53 pm (UTC)(link)
I didn't realize this was a show and tell sort of thing.

video

[identity profile] imakefootnotes.livejournal.com 2011-12-10 04:56 pm (UTC)(link)
That's okay, I don't really care anyway. Just seemed the thing to say.
saintedsinner: (suspicious)

[personal profile] saintedsinner 2011-12-10 05:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Alright. Well, have fun with that.

Eh? He trapped you? Why? [From what she's seen of him, he's hard to get to know, but a fairly fair and honest person. Were you getting into trouble, whoever-is-in-his-body?]
flameandpassion: (Rei: Toushirou's on the roof again.)

[Video]

[personal profile] flameandpassion 2011-12-10 11:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Why did he do that?

[As patiently as possible.]

... I'm glad you find this amusing.
