.013-- Forth Wall Day

[what_ho_jeeves]

By Jove, there's a great flurry of talk going on. Is there something important happening? If so, this Wooster is willing and able to lend strength, wit, and...thingness to the cause.

Then perhaps a word with the Admiral and I will do my best to expedite matters? If you can tell me how to contact him.

[what_ho_jeeves]

Well, usually I use the little cinema telephone whatsits to call him. He often doesn't reply, however. I've heard of some people sometimes simply bellowing at the ceiling to get his attention, but I'm not sure whether or not that's more effective.

[fromtheagency.livejournal.com]

I see. If you would oblige me by pointing your telephonic device towards the ceiling?

[what_ho_jeeves]

Right-o, Jeeves.

[And the picture swings around a bit clumsily until it finally points upward.]

All set.

[He clears his throat delicately]

Admiral, I must request that you allow Mister Wooster to leave at any time of his choosing. Should I find that you are holding him against his will at any point I shall have to negotiate with you in person, a process I fear will be quite tedious for us both.

[And there's an expression on his face that he'd never display in front of Bertie, which will be gone as the dew on the leaf as soon as the communicator turns back.]

That will do, sir, thank you. We can only hope that the gentleman will consider my request.

[what_ho_jeeves]

[Communicator turns back around.]

I don't doubt he will. You have a way of convincing people, Jeeves.

[fromtheagency.livejournal.com]

Have I, sir? You're very kind to say so, sir.

Shall I put the kettle on in anticipation of your return to home?

[what_ho_jeeves]

That would be splendid, Jeeves, just splendid. [No one can make a pot of tea quite like Jeeves, and Bertie has been deprived for too long.]

I'll need a spot of time to say good-bye to my chums here first, though.

[fromtheagency.livejournal.com]

Very good, sir. All shall be ready when you return to the flat. [He displays the tiniest, the most modest of pleased smiles.]
