oo2. [voice] my intentions never change;

Nov 15, 2009 03:24

[Silence for a moment, quickly followed by that bell that accompanies the corner shop door and a general ambience of traffic. Tartarus' tone is characteristically cheerful, as though he's relaying a story to an old friend. Who's to say he isn't?]Man walks in the corner shop, asks for cigarettes 'n a lighter. Not an unusual request. Doesn't look ( Read more... )

hell incarnate; ask me how, well i'll be damned, voice, dumb as a box of rocks, further south than you can get

[There's a laugh, bubbly and bright, before the reply comes in a dusty, library-stacks voice.]

He did the work for you, is all. Perhaps it is not quite as satisfying, but requiring far less effort on your part. And you get to laugh at him not only for being a fool, but a clumsy one at that.

[snort] Oh, I laughed. But 'cause there was people starin' at me 'n his head was a'bleedin'. Shit, I know I make people uncomfortable, but enough to ignore th'injured? [amused] S'a damn shame.

People are rather easily distracted. [A thoughtful hum.] Perhaps they found you to be a more interesting focus for their attentions.

[Bright, some undertone of laughter again.] They call it Southern charm, after all. When they are not being rude.

I should damn well hope so. Losin' attention over some unconscious moron? [feigning a sulk] Now that'd just hurt my feelin's.

I'm never rude. Just honest. I don't even cuss infront'f my momma.

[voice] un_rememorable November 16 2009, 21:00:25 UTC

[A giggle.] And I should hate for that to happen.

Oh! I did not think so. There is hardly anything wrong with being honest. Rude mortals, rather. For calling you names.

Me too--my bad moods are never pretty.

Pfff, most mortals are the same. Kinda. Some are smarter, I guess.

They are not all terrible. Well, at least not all of the time.

[Mildly stern, though it comes off more pouty than genuine. She's not very good at stern - even when pretending.] Though they really should learn how to mind their manners. The occasional concussion may be warranted.

Baby, if everyone watched their manners I'd be uninhabited.

Can't tell if that's a good thing...
