A/N: Inspired by the fact that the only reason I was able to guess Irene's password WAY in advance was because my friends and I joking about Havelock's name all the time.
Title totally not ripping off any Roundworld movies starring Tom Hanks, oh no.
Margolotta, how on the Disc did you change my Gooseberry clacks alert?

I have no idea what you're talking about, Havelock. xoxo
From: The Dark Lady; sent: 4 Grune, 09:15
Oh but I know you do - and now I'd also like to know why! And possibly how, too. My Gooseberry never leaves my possession!
From: Havvie 3; sent: 4 Grune, 09:16
I'm afraid I am still very much in the dark, my dear.
From: The Dark Lady; sent: 4 Grune, 09:16
You're a vampire, darling, they see best in the dark. And now I want an answer. Why?
From: Havvie 3; sent: 4 Grune, 09:17
Oh you! It was just a harmless bit of fun. Don't be such a prude - it isn't very… you. 3
From: The Dark Lady; sent: 4 Grune, 09:20
Vimes was there, and von Lipwig too!
From: Havvie 3; sent: 4 Grune, 09:20
Margolotta, I demand an answer! Don't think just ignoring me will make this go away!
From: Havvie 3; sent: 4 Grune, 09:26
Hmmn? Oh sorry, darling, I wasn't ignoring you, I was just laughing so hard I was unable to type properly there for a moment. You say it went off when Lipwig and the angry Commander were both there in the office with you? Oh no! To have been a bat on the wall! XDDD

Margolotta…
From: Havvie 3; sent: 4 Grune, 09:27
Sorry, darling, but surely even you must admit: the mental image is debilitatingly funny.
From: The Dark Lady; sent: 4 Grune, 09:28
I don't have to make a mental image, Margolotta, I was THERE! That's the whole PROBLEM!
From: Havvie 3; sent: 4 Grune, 09:29
But what I don't understand is why didn't you just change it back? Or tell the imp to be silent? Come on, you're smarter than that, you can't blame me for your own carelessness.
From: The Dark Lady; sent: 4 Grune, 09:29
It was the first time it went off! And I certainly wasn't expecting it to do THAT!
From: Havvie 3; sent: 4 Grune, 09:30
What's "THAT" dear?
From: The Dark Lady; sent: 4 Grune, 09:30
That sound you put on it. Actually yes, good question: what is "THAT"? Where does it come from, anyway?
From: Havvie 3; sent: 4 Grune, 09:31
Oh, do you like it? I made it myself.
From: The Dark Lady; sent: 4 Grune, 09:32
Just for you. It's homemade. With love.
From: The Dark Lady; sent: 4 Grune, 09:32
Yes, Margo, you're very witty, I'm sure. Now stop it.
From: Havvie 3; sent: 4 Grune, 09:33
Well, you DID ask…
From: The Dark Lady; sent: 4 Grune, 09:34
I'm going to assume there was a reason behind all of this…?
From: Havvie 3; sent: 4 Grune, 09:35
Oh yes! A very good one too, only I fear you may not agree with me on that point.
From: The Dark Lady; sent: 4 Grune, 09:36
Really now? And what is this good reason of yours?
From: Havvie 3; sent: 4 Grune, 09:37
I was bored.
From: The Dark Lady; sent: 4 Grune, 09:38
You were bored? That's all. There isn't perhaps a second part to that message that adds the 'good' to your 'reason'?
From: Havvie 3; sent: 4 Grune, 09:41
Oh! Oh you mean: I was bored. You know how dreadfully dull these long Uberwaldean winters can become.
From: The Dark Lady; sent: 4 Grune, 09:41
I see. And this is amusing, you find?
From: Havvie 3; sent: 4 Grune, 09:42
Oh, immeasurably! xoxo
From: The Dark Lady; sent: 4 Grune, 09:42
How nice.
From: Havvie 3; sent: 4 Grune, 09:42
^^,
From: The Dark Lady; sent: 4 Grune, 09:42
Oh, and, Margolotta?
From: Havvie 3; sent: 4 Grune, 09:43
Yes, my dear?
From: The Dark Lady; sent: 4 Grune, 09:44
Don't think this is over. It's only just begun. You may have won the battle, but consider this my counter-declaration of war. As all the "cool kids" are saying these days: it is on!
From: Havvie 3; sent: 4 Grune, 09:45
Ooooh, goody! I'd hoped for nothing less! You know, as I was saying: tedious Uberwaldean winters... :( And since we're quoting "cool kids" at the moment: bring it, bitch! lol :)
