[079] LOVE STINKS. // Voice.

This flood is insulting, and it's shallow, and-- and didn't we already do a port like this?

I refuse to leave my room until it passes!

[Pause.]

Except for meals.

But I refuse to engage with any of you idiots, so leave me alone and stop leaving sonnets-- and I use that term loosely-- in my food! It isn't amusing in the slightest, and your ( Read more... )

rage, flood: romcom cliche, rex is a drama queen, not happy.

[Billy wasn't entirely sure why he felt compelled to go see Rex. He figured it was because they were sort of on fairly good terms, and he wanted to go be supportive of his friend in this obviously stressful time.

And because this was an awkward Romcom, he decided that the best way to be supportive was by bringing ice cream.

And not bothering to knock before opening Rex's door.]

Hey Rex?

SPAM stopthat_destro August 29 2010, 16:27:26 UTC

[Rex was in the middle of changing, so Billy got a FULL FRONTAL VIEW of a skinny, scarred up and bare chest and, alluringly, no hair or mask, as it was easier to get the shirt on without the ventilator getting in the way. ENJOY THIS VISION OF HEAVEN, BILLY. Or, at least, enjoy it until it notices you, screams in surprise, and then STARES AT YOU IN HORROR.]

What are you doing here?!

SPAM my_freeze_ray August 29 2010, 16:39:06 UTC

[If Billy is even remotely bothered by your BEAUTIFUL SCARRED UP PHYSIQUE, well, it doesn't show. He just stands in the doorway, and smiles, holding out the Ice cream.]

Hey! I was just in the kitchen getting some ice cream, and there was like, way too much left, and since it's the end of the month and the stores will all be restocked in a couple of days, Paddy just said I should take the tub, and I thought... since you sounded so down in your post, maybe you'd like some?

[LIES AND LIES. I can't decide if this is more or less awkward than when Billy tried to trap Reid into a threesome with him and West.]

[Breathing with great effort, Rex hurriedly finishes putting his shirt on, then the ventilator, but he doesn't bother with the hair since, pffth, what's the point right now?]

I'm not down. Why would I be down?

SPAM my_freeze_ray August 29 2010, 16:56:47 UTC

[Billy shrugs, still holding the ice cream.]

I don't know, I guess you're not really into all this romance stuff? I mean, personally I don't blame you. I think it's all just a system built up just to sell cards and make people like us feel excluded. [BECAUSE THAT'S OBVIOUSLY AN AGENDA THE BARGE HAS GOING ON.]

Besides, even if you're not feeling down, Ice cream always helps matters. [Billy holds up two spoons, TEMPTINGLY. DON'T YOU WANT TO GO THROUGH THE ARDUOUS MASK REMOVAL PROCESS OF EATING ICE CREAM, REX?]

SPAM stopthat_destro August 29 2010, 17:11:27 UTC

I don't like ice cream. [THAT IS SUCH A LIE. He looks at it longingly. He obviously kind of wants it.]

SPAM my_freeze_ray August 29 2010, 17:21:09 UTC

Or maybe... [Billy is ignoring your objections anyway, Rex. He comes a little further into the room and starts pulling the lid off of the tub of ice cream. IT'S SOME KIND OF AMAZING FRUITY CHOCOLATE RIPPLE KIND!] You've just not been eating the right type!

SPAM stopthat_destro August 29 2010, 17:24:56 UTC

[OH NO, HE LOVES THAT KIND. Rex stares at it.] I... [NO, MUST OBJECT.] only eat alone.

SPAM my_freeze_ray August 29 2010, 17:34:32 UTC

[BILLY IS COMPLETELY UNDETERRED, and now he's holding out one of the spoons for you, BALDY.] Well, that's a habit you should really try to break, you know eating alone is bad for your digestion?

[PROBABLY?]

SPAM stopthat_destro August 29 2010, 17:37:25 UTC

[He accepts the spoon automatically, FALLING INTO BILLY'S TRAP.] It isn't.

[HE THINKS.]

I don't need your... pity ice cream. [And yet, he digs the spoon in.]

SPAM my_freeze_ray August 29 2010, 17:42:33 UTC

No, it definitely is. [It probably isn't, but now you're trapped and Billy too, is digging into the ice cream.]

Anyway, it's not pity ice cream. It's... I don't know, the ice cream of camaraderie and friendship.

SPAM stopthat_destro August 29 2010, 17:50:15 UTC

[He stares at the spoonful of ice cream, then BLAHBLAH VENTILATOR STUFF eats.]

I'm really not sad, you know. [HE IS TOTALLY SAD AND IT SHOWS IN THE AMOUNT OF ICE CREAM HE IS EATING.]

Re: SPAM my_freeze_ray August 29 2010, 17:58:38 UTC

[Billy swallows down a big spoonful of ice cream] That's okay, you don't have to be Sad. I mean, it's not like I'd withhold my ice cream from you if you weren't.

[BECAUSE HE TOTALLY STILL ASSUMES THAT YOU ARE.]

SPAM stopthat_destro August 29 2010, 18:01:03 UTC

Well. [Awkward.] Good.

[Pause. Omnomnom ice cream.]

So, you survived port?

SPAM my_freeze_ray August 29 2010, 18:53:38 UTC

Yeah, I actually did okay out of it. I thought one of my enemies was down there, but when I tried to find him he kept getting away. We found Morgan though, so I guess it went all right.

[Scoop, scoop, scoop the ice cream.]

How about you?

SPAM stopthat_destro August 30 2010, 02:20:31 UTC

Largely uneventful. [He shrugs.] I found my warden, and we escaped shortly after. [FAKE SMILE.] It seems as though we had an easier time of it.
