[IC: Backdated to Valentine's Day... uh, Night.]

Feb 15, 2009 20:40

[On the TV screen at the Video-Rama and Porn Hut, Humphrey Bogart and Claude Raines have just begun their long walk from the airfield pondering the potential outcomes of a new and beautiful friendship, and the resident superhero owner/operator has stirred himself from the couch to stop the movie.]

Still as good the second time 'round, princess?

[IS. NOT. CRYING.]

...Yes.

2nd_slinger February 16 2009, 01:45:47 UTC

['Course not. He's just, y'know, nudging the box of tissues a little closer to her for no good reason.]

Glad t'hear it.

[takes one or three and surreptitiously wipes her eyes]

Well, there are films you enjoy watching more than once.

2nd_slinger February 16 2009, 01:50:04 UTC

Yeah, but I'm kinda addicted. Besides, I figured you'd probably kill me if I tried gettin' you to watch another Abbott & Costello movie.

astalavampire February 16 2009, 01:50:40 UTC

Indeed.

Slowly.

2nd_slinger February 16 2009, 01:51:42 UTC

Psh... sorry, Bud an' Lou.

Just be glad I haven't introduced you to Jerry Lewis.

astalavampire February 16 2009, 01:58:51 UTC

They are... tolerable, depending on the situation, I suppose.

Why should I be thankful?

2nd_slinger February 16 2009, 02:01:20 UTC

Those guys are like brothers to me. We fought Dracula together when I got trapped inside a movie. I've told this story like seventy times.

Well for one, his movies don't really set the mood for this particular holiday... An' for another, under the right conditions his voice can cut glass.

astalavampire February 16 2009, 02:03:03 UTC

Ah, yes -- I remember it well. You punched him in the face.

...My hearing is more sensitive than yours; I'll thank you not to expose his particular genre to me.

2nd_slinger February 16 2009, 02:05:16 UTC

Yep. I did... Right in his terrifyin', terrifyin' face.

No worries there, Asta. Sooo... Know what time it is?

astalavampire February 16 2009, 02:17:50 UTC

Approximately half-past nine.

2nd_slinger February 16 2009, 02:20:22 UTC

... not quite what I was goin' for, but accurate.

astalavampire February 16 2009, 02:21:07 UTC

It was what you asked.

2nd_slinger February 16 2009, 02:23:04 UTC

Yeah, but what I meant was... Never mind.

Wait here a sec, 'kay? [Aaaand heading for the back room~]

astalavampire February 16 2009, 02:46:32 UTC

[Waits patiently~]

2nd_slinger February 16 2009, 02:48:53 UTC

[Returns bearing a tiny box wrapped in red paper, with a small card taped over it.]

Happy Valentine's Day... Just don't read the card 'til you've opened it.
