aria: 0; fraser: 1

Two bits of conversation:

[personal profile] aria: I am PANTS at writing fraser
[personal profile] oliviacirce: I bet you are not as pants at it as you think
[personal profile] oliviacirce: but it is sort of a trial by fire, yeah
[personal profile] oliviacirce: I mean, I've never tried, I am too scared to try
[personal profile] aria: well, see, he ... wants to say everything! he is bad at just implying things because he doesn't really pay that much attention to his internal state
[personal profile] aria: so if I make him do so, then he starts paragraphing it
[personal profile] aria: and I am sitting here going "oh my god, you incompetent man! MAYBE I SHOULD LET RAY DRIVE"
[personal profile] aria: it's not that he has a difficult voice, he just has a terrible time saying anything.

[personal profile] oliviacirce: how are you aside from fighting fraser tooth and claw?
[personal profile] oliviacirce: (that is a great image, btw)
[personal profile] oliviacirce: (I am really into it)
[personal profile] oliviacirce: (I am imagining you actually fighting fraser, now.)
[personal profile] aria: (ahaha oh my god you are cracking me the hell up)
[personal profile] aria: (FRASER WINS)

... hmm, yeah, OK, if your misdemeanour is Ray-related, Fraser definitely wins :P
