Games, DVDs, B reminded me music. We gotta get while the getting's good, right?

I think we should try! My roomie is some kind of mechanical genius, so we could probably rig up something if we don't have the means.

I'm all for loading up Arch, dude. Think he'd be willing to haul up a DDR machine or three?

[unlostsoul.livejournal.com]

Music. Yes. Yes.

I might have to steal your roommate to set up my place too then, man. Because now that you have stuck this beautiful vision in my head, I don't think I will ever be able to unsee it.

We can ask? Or, rather, I guess I can ask and then if he says no, I can make him. Um.

[child-proteus.livejournal.com]

OH MY GOD.

DUB.

I AM WRITING IN THE SAME JOURNAL AS YOU.

STOP TALKING ABOUT ME LIKE I CAN'T HEAR OR READ OR AM A MORON OR SOMETHING.

[unlostsoul.livejournal.com]

YOU KNOW I KNOW THAT YOU ARE SITTING BESIDE ME.

SO YOU KNOW THAT I KNOW THAT YOU CAN READ IT.

I. DUDE. WHAT IS THE PROBLEM HERE?

[child-proteus.livejournal.com]

YOUR WANTON HUBRIS IS DISTURBING, YOUNG PADAWAN.


quit it.

[unlostsoul.livejournal.com]

IT'S NOT WANTON HUBRIS.

IT'S FAITH IN MY NEGOTIATING SKILLS.

[child-proteus.livejournal.com]

IT'S LACK OF FAITH IN MY WILLPOWER AND PERSONAL BELIEFS THAT I AM NOT A DONKEY.

I HOPE YOU GET SMOTE UPON THE MOUNTAINSIDE FOR SUCH VILLAINY AND GUILE.

[unlostsoul.livejournal.com]

WELL THAT'S VIOLENT.

I THINK I'M GONNA GO SIT OVER THERE NOW.

JUST SO I DON'T GET SMITING ALL OVER YOU.

[child-proteus.livejournal.com]

WELL THEN THAT'S VERY CONSIDERATE.

THAT STILL DOES NOT UNDO THE FACT THAT YOU ARE SMITEDED DUE TO YOUR BEAST OF BURDENING OF ME, BOYFRIEND.

[unlostsoul.livejournal.com]

WHAT IS THIS? YOU CAN CARRY FURNITURE FOR B ALL THE WAY FROM IKEA ISLAND TO HER PLACE, AND I CAN'T GET ONE LITTLE PLASMA SCREEN TV OUT OF YOU?

[speeding]

Yeah, B's probably gonna bug you to help with her iPod.

[A line is drawn pointing to his conversation with Bastet]

Sure, borrow away. Dr. Boom is super chill, you'll like him. Looks a lot like FM. And yeah, isn't it a nice mental image? Like a small slice of paradise.

Dude, don't get in trouble. Too late I guess.

[unlostsoul.livejournal.com]

Oh, cool! Yeah, I can set her up with something... I'm sure. Or, well, I'm sure I'll remember how to when I see the program.

...Dr. Boom? DR. BOOM? Are you living with, like, a 1970s supervillian, bro? What is this?

Nothing I can't handle.

[child-proteus.livejournal.com]

Sounds more like a reaaaaally bad 1970s pornstar name. Like, up there with HotPants McGee and John Handcock.


ALSO, FOR THE RECORD. YOUR HANDLING REQUIRES WORK.

[speeding]

Yeah, thought you might.

Well Sky. But after his hijinks with a microwave last night, he earned the nickname. I guess he could be a supervillain. He smiles enough!

Wish I could make boys fawn on me like that.

[unlostsoul.livejournal.com]

Wait. Are you telling me he blew up a microwave? And he's a genius, you say? You keep an eye out for maniacal laughter and finger-steepling, okay? Because those are the first signs.

It's... a gift?

[speeding]

I think he's from like a time or place without microwaves. But the stuff he does know, he gets pretty damn well. And fortunately I'm pretty sure he knows electricity. My eyes will be peeled, bro. Also, will let you know if he starts acquiring minions.

Well damn it'd be useful. Except for the guys fawning part I guess.

[unlostsoul.livejournal.com]

Well, okay. I guess if that's the case then the fact that he managed to blow one up is pretty impressive at the same time. If he starts acquiring minions, don't worry about telling me. Save yourself!

You get... used to it?

[speeding]

Yeah, he's smart. And he catches on real quick. I think you two would probably geek at each other. Nah, I bet I could take out any minions. Unless they're like, robot minions. Then I'm running to you.

Well I guess you'd have to.

[child-proteus.livejournal.com]

Wait, this guy's blond, smart, and a geek?


he'd better not geek out too hard

[unlostsoul.livejournal.com]

Yeah? Well then I guess I have a reason to drop by that isn't just to mooch off your sweet entertainment center. Well, you better put on your running shoes, dude, because he sounds like the robot minion-type.

It definitely makes life easier.

[child-proteus.livejournal.com]

NOBODY IS FAWNING HERE.

[speeding]

Yeah sure. What do you call it then?

[child-proteus.livejournal.com]

EXERCISING MY BOYISH INDEPENDENCE.

[speeding]

OH I GET IT. SURE, WE'LL CALL IT THAT IF YOU WANT.

[child-proteus.livejournal.com]

THIS IS RIDONKULOUS. I STILL MAINTAIN MY OWN AUTONOMY, YOU KNOW.
