[Fourth Strike]: [Accidental Audio]
[the comm clicks on to some muttered, barely understandable grumbling and cursing, but 'fucking Christmas music' and 'goddamn holidays' can be heard a few times through out. There is Christmas music in the background, and a lot of chattering fading in and out. Apparently Ahime is at a mall.]
I can't say that I've known you all that long... three weeks, six hours, to be exact...
You got a point with this, Ari?
I don't think I've ever seen you this irritated...
All I want... is a damn pair of jeans that fit, a couple of shirts, and for everyone to stop saying 'happy holidays!' to me...
... some one's a bit of a Scrooge.
Scrooge ain't got nothin' on how much I detest this commercialized BS.
What about the spirit of family togetherness and good tidings to men and 'mon alike?
... Ari.
[nervous laugh] Y-yes, Ahime?
WHAT family?
[Ari is quiet for a long time before quietly offering]
There's always Travis and Quinn...
... augh! Forget it! Next store! Let's go.
[Ari yelps, apparently dragged along against her will, and the comm shuts off a second later, ironically to the sound of Jingle Bells starting up over the loud speakers.]
