Welcome to Boston, Massachusetts! We hope you've found your accommodations to your liking. It's Christmas week, so the streets are bustling along nicely, the trees are up, and decorations line Faneuil Hall. No snow just yet, but we hope you like the 30°F weather! (Might want to bundle up.)
Even around this time of year, there's much to be done in the city -- take a gander at some of the potential attractions on your brochure and get out there to go enjoy the sights!
((Host note: I'm starting the week off easy with a general RP, but come Wednesday, expect a new post with -- gasp -- tasks! Unfortunately, I just won't be a stable enough presence to maintain what I have planned until then. So for now, get settled in and have fun!
Feel free to go all around the city -- I've outlined/summarized some key areas to hit up in the list up there. If you're stumped on somewhere to go, hit up the mod thread and I'll make sure to point you in the right direction!))

Date: 2012-12-30 09:36 pm (UTC)Oh, I... just thought you would have found someone else by then. Like I said, I'm not exactly long-term material. And you *smiles at him* you are so wonderful, someone's going to snatch you up, and you'll be ridiculously happy, and you'll have gorgeous children, and...
*shrugs and says quietly* and I'm just... keeping you warm in the meantime.

You're just....wonderful too.

Date: 2012-12-31 09:05 pm (UTC)But when you're ready to settle down, you'll find someone who's better for it than I am. I'm a fun weekend fling, I'm not the girl you bring home to your parents. *pauses, realizing he's basically done exactly that* I mean... *gives a self-deprecating laugh* it's not like you're actually in love with me.

Re: AT THE SHEPPARD HOUSE
Date: 2012-12-31 09:37 pm (UTC)*nods at his silence, thinking it means she's right and he just doesn't want to hurt her by saying it out loud*
It's all right *shrugs, trying to hide her own hurt with bravado* I know I'm not the princess who gets a handsome prince like you. *reaches up to touch his face*

Re: AT THE SHEPPARD HOUSE
Date: 2013-01-06 04:44 am (UTC)I've been called many things, but never that. I didn't know you felt that way.

Re: AT THE SHEPPARD HOUSE
Date: 2013-01-06 06:34 pm (UTC)I do feel that way I have for a very long time.
