3. Good Morning [Text/Open]

[fredless]

Pancakes for breakfast, and downright friendly ones at that. Not that they're inherently rude to begin with, it wouldn't be proper to start the morning off like that. Still, these are just about perfect.

I think it's going to be a good day.

A modern issue? [She doesn't quite understand]

I guess I just never felt like it fit. My name, I mean. I like Fred.

I'm from 1897. But I certainly don't have any problem addressing people inappropriately, if they'd prefer.

This has made me grin. The whole thing...

Well, we're about a hundred years a part then give or take. Do you really think it's inappropriate?

That's what Georges are for.

It takes a bit of getting used to. Where I come from, calling a woman by her Christian name isn't something one enters into lightly. But I also enjoy trying new things.

Well, if it makes you feel any better you wouldn't be calling me by my Christian name. Not exactly?

[19centconstable.livejournal.com]

A nickname is even more scandalous.

I'm sorry to say I don't really have one.

...scandalous? You really think Fred is scandalous?

[Shaking that off]

Is it okay if I call you George?

[19centconstable.livejournal.com]

No, no. People where I come from would consider calling a woman a nickname in public scandalous.

Of course. That's what everybody calls me.

Well I promise not to be scandalized.

And I'm glad we met, George.
