[A long stretch of silence follows...but then it's broken by nothing other than a stream of absolutely amused, unashamed laughter. In the youth speak, Will's answer seems to be an "irl lmao."]

[brushoff]

[ Dorian's huffy response is pure "this is not funny, Will!!!" ]

Stop laughing! How am I to know if she's been vaccinated or not? With my luck, measles probably travels via biting!

[ spoiler alert, Dorian doesn't know shit about medicine ]

[infomodder]

[Laugh 2: Laugh Harder!

Though he is totally trying to stop, Dorian can hear smatterings of Oh my God and shit and Jesus—doge is trying to speak but the more Dorian protests the harder it gets because wow Dorian sure is tattling on Sasha biting him because what if he gets the vapors!!! Beautiful.]

[brushoff]

Stop laughing!!!

[ huffy whiny baby 2: huffy whiny baby electric boogaloo ]

[infomodder]

[He...does not stop laughing. Not immediately, at least, there's that cool down snickering period all men must pass through. It's not as if Dorian's before him with a knife and he just HAS to get his shit together ASAP or risk being gutted again and eaten or anything. Will puts a hand over his mouth to help stifle the problem, though his eyes are all a glitter with giggles.]

That's... [He got this, he not gonna laugh no more.] ...I dunno about her medical history recently, but you're likely fine. She works with dogs. I'm sure she's had her shots.

[brushoff]

[ Dorian....is still sulking, fuck you for laughing at him Will, this is serious business! The metaphorical disgruntled teenager is being such a disgruntled teenager. ]

Good. I honestly don't know how my portrait would react with infections diseases, so pardon me for being a bit cautious.

[infomodder]

If you're so worried, you could get yourself tested.

[brushoff]

Will, it has literally been over a hundred years since I went to the doctors.

[ that's a no. ]

[infomodder]

I could take something of yours to be tested if you're that opposed to the idea.

[Like a liver C: or a heart C: or his entire lower intestines C:]

[brushoff]

I'd best wait. If it's anything like lycanthropy, the portrait will only take it on when I start showing symptoms.

[ "but Dorian, how did you almost become a werewolf in the first place?" "well Will, it's a fucking story and a half." ]

[infomodder]

[Flatly:]

You just wanted to bitch.

[brushoff]

[ ding ding ding ]

Well in my defense, she bit me.

[infomodder]

She could've done a lot worse.

[brushoff]

And I'm entirely thankful she didn't do a lot worse. We both know I've been through a lot worse.

[ Nicolas cares about fish that have been fried and that would be about it, unfortunately. Instead of asking, he'll settle into listening to Will after finding a spot against the counter to lean. He nods, filing away the information bit by bit. For the most part, none of this should be a problem, but--

On one point, he does grimace at asking about it, but it can't be helped. ]

It does, only, the curfew. My job does not keep regular hours and as I have not been dismissed... [ Surprisingly, to him. ] Am I allowed to continue working? Or do I take a leave for the next two months?

[infomodder]

Learned anything?

[brushoff]

Don't trust Billy Kaplan with the slightest magical task because he'll manage to fuck it up?

[infomodder]

[Well. He did okay with Chilton that one time, even if Will had sort of been looking forward to seeing if drugs could go up against the weird shit this world tossed at them by using his once-keeper as a lab rat of sorts.]

It's a start.

[brushoff]

And...if you're trying to convince someone that their mind's been magically altered, your best option is to wait a week until whatever this is inevitably wears off.

[ and theeeeeere's the drop. Look, he can learn! ]

[infomodder]

One of the most important things to know about this place, in my experience.

[unless sodium amytal is involved]

[brushoff]

I've got to thank April again, by the way. She helped talk me down from that metaphorical ledge.

[ the ledge of hissy fits ]

[infomodder]

Speaking of, have you rescheduled your wedding yet?

[brushoff]

Not yet—I imagine we'll schedule it for July, though. At least then it's somewhat close to multiple anniversaries.

[infomodder]

Give the fourth a wide berth.

[brushoff]

[ why on earth would he ohhhhh wait. ] Ah. Yes, you do have to worry about people like that idiot who attacked the Saint Patrick's Day parade a while back. Or, alternatively, any sort of Russian whatever destined to put a stop to American imperialism, blah blah blah.
