someone asked if i’m chauffeured around with security detail… i mean, i suppose if you consider manager kim and mrs. jeong? ㅎ
though, they both spend a considerable amount of time keeping me out of trouble… if anything, perhaps they’re my crisis management team? ㅋㅋㅋ
⠀
@lingeringangels and from the author herself? i feel especially inclined to trust your judgment… ㅎ both will be going onto my reading list! ♡
though, now i must ask… is there anything new of yours i might be allowed to read too? 👉🏻👈🏻
⠀
come to think of it… i’d really love to join a book club.
because, apparently, becoming a graduate student and acquiring an unreasonable amount of required reading has only made me think, you know what i need? yeah, more books! hopeless, really… ㅎ
⠀
@lingeringangels mmh, perhaps i ought to be more careful about announcing my wishes publicly if they’re going to be granted this quickly? ㅋㅋㅋ
this sounds lovely, cherie! consider me very interested. may i trouble you for this month’s book and all the little details? ㅎ 👉🏻👈🏻
@sylvanvows you were thee very first person who came to mind! ㅋㅋㅋ are you still running yours, cherie? i’d love to hear all about your recent reads, and which have been the most riveting as of late. please, bestow your wisdom upon me? 🤲🏻♡
@faeribloom wait, i’ve heard lovely things about that one! wasn’t it just adapted into a film with ryan gosling? ㅎ perhaps we’ll simply watch it once you inevitably fail to finish the book… ㅋㅋㅋ
suddenly, i’m considering starting a film club instead… less reading required?! ㅎ
@koreeezw mon fleur, thank you ♡ i’ll have to stop by soon… to catch up, but also because my arrangements are in desperate need of your divine intervention! ㅋㅋㅋ perhaps you’ll choose something lovely for me? ㅎ
@chudaIert oh, i love the hunger games! i read the series when i was a little girl… though it’s been terribly long since then. perhaps this is my sign for a reread and to finally pick up all of the new additions! ㅎ
now i’m curious… who are your favorite characters? ♡
@svmmersxlstice oh, both sound incredibly lovely! ♡ i’ve heard such beautiful things about either of these two. though, if you had to choose just one for me to begin with… which would you prescribe, cherie? ㅋㅋㅋ 👉🏻👈🏻
@inkedgut hm, would you perhaps lend me your copy? especially if you’ve written in the margins… i’d love to interrogate you on all of them! ㅎ
or, since you’re prepared to climb through my window anyway… perhaps you could simply read it to me before bed? ㅋㅋㅋ 👉🏻👈🏻
@nostalgicnvs_ ah, i suppose that may as well be my latest nickname? ㅎ i’ll happily be of service if you need a sous chef on standby, just say the word! ㅋㅋㅋ
@nostalgicnvs_ “sweetness that cuts through” sounds incredibly enticing… and would entirely be on brand for me, i think? ㅋㅋㅋ
though, you’ve piqued my curiosity and i must try the espresso martini too! your attention to detail is extraordinary, chef… 🥹
@blvndie if only father knew that not every conversation must become a philosophical debate or socratic seminar… with all his inquiries, it’s like i’m studying for the SATs again… ㅋㅋㅋ
cece, you’re a lawyer, at what point am i permitted to invoke my right to remain silent? ㅎ
⠀
huh. and on tonight’s completely “normal” family conversation: whether omission constitutes dishonesty, whether intent matters more than consequence, and whether morality exists independently of social agreement.
anyways, how was everyone else’s dinner? ㅋㅋㅋ
⠀
@faeribloom mmmh, you know… i’d love a tiramisu? or those little fruit tarts… oh, possibly strawberry cake. honestly, i’m not picky whatsoever, i’ll happily oblige with whatever you give me! ㅋㅋㅋ
