You know what's fucking weird, Barge?

I miss that-fucking-pink-limo. The Twatmobile. I fucking miss it. For a car which I nearly killed our Mickey for buying, because fuck, pink and twenty feet long is not my idea of inconspicious, it had a variety of fucking uses. Everything from a makeshift fucking ambulance to somewhere to hide from the wife

Boxing? Now you're talking!

[christ_onabike]

I fucking am, mate. You up for it? I ain't gonna take two beatings a fucking day, but tomorrow's good with me.

[actuallyagolem]

Hey, whenever's good for you, guy. I'll be around.

[christ_onabike]

Awesome. You just back, didn't ya? I'm Paddy, kitchen guy. So you know.

[actuallyagolem]

Yep, sure did. I'm Donny...in case we haven't talked before anyway.

Say. Kitchen guy. I have a question for you.

[christ_onabike]

I know your name, mate.

Yeah? What's up?

Private

[actuallyagolem]

You kicked my inmate out of the kitchens, and I just want to hear why from you guys.

Re: Private

[christ_onabike]

Oh, so that was your guy.

Right. Iroh was the one who made the decision, because I wasn't in any fucking state to work at the time. But, we discussed the decision, so I can tell you this:

A vampire, fuck if I know which one, asked Iroh about the blood supply, and if someone had fucked with it. Iroh checked, nobody had, nothing had fucking happened. Vampire then says that your inmate (who was only temping at the time, I think) told them that this was the case, and then tried to sell them blood. We were worried he'd try something much more substantial if he was left where he was. He was, uh, what do they say at this kinda fucking thing?

Oh, bringing us into disrepute and spreading malicious rumours about something as crucial as food supplies, and that we couldn't keep 'em safe. Iroh thought it sensible, and I totally stand by his decision. He dealt with your inmate in person, so if you wanna bother him, I'm sure he won't mind.

Re: Private

[actuallyagolem]

Yeah, was just saddled with him. He was moaning and groaning about being thrown out of the kitchens so I thought I'd see what the hell happened.

I've only had him for a week, but know he's obsessed about the food supplies, so as much as I hate to say it, he'll probably he bothering you guys in the kitchens a lot. Or at least nagging you. I'll do my best to make sure he doesn't fuck things up for you though.

Thanks for telling me all this. I'll probably go and talk to that Iroh guy too.

Re: Private

[christ_onabike]

Fucking grand. If all he does is bother the fuck out of us, I can ignore the hell out of him in return. But don't you let him even get to a point where he can fuck with our food. I don't give a shit what his obsessions are, but if he starts messing shit up...

Anyway, it's appreciated.

Re: Private

[actuallyagolem]

I figured the supply of food on a ship traveling through space would be a big fucking deal to the people living on it. I'll do my best to make sure he stays out of your hair and away from the supply, Kitchen Guy.

No problem.

Re: Private

[christ_onabike]

Ta, mate. And I ain't hiring the guy again unless you personally fucking vouch for him. Then it'll be your ass I kick.

Re: Private

[actuallyagolem]

He's not setting foot anywhere near that kitchen until I can trust him.

Re: Private

[christ_onabike]

Good fucking man.
