TM 206: What do you live for?

Nov 29, 2007 21:32

I believe the operative phrase is "Viva Las Vegas."

My bags are packed, I've got my traveler's checks, I've got my anti-mind-reading measures in place. Don't take it personally, Frosty. I'm going to play poker with a telepath in the room, I've got to keep myself safe. (For the kids, you understand; this is all for charity). Anyway, Ems, you're probably too distracted with pre-wedding jitters to worry about little old me, but I'll tell you what. If it makes things easier, before the wedding night, I can sit down with Cyclops and explain the facts of life. I'm quite good at it; did wonders for Clint Barton. If somebody had done the same for Wanda and Vision, the world would be a different kind of place, but I'm not going there.

The point is, there's a time for business and a time for pleasure. Rumor has it that, lately, I've been all of one, not enough of the other. This weekend, I intend to fix that. I've even invited my old-school party pal, Henry Hellrung, to be my right-hand man. We'll win all that money -- from Frosty, and Clooney, and Pitt -- for charity, of course -- and then we'll remind that town of what the verb "to stark" really means.

I live for this weekend.

*locked to Steve*

No worries, lover. I'm on my best behavior.
