Meeting the band: Behind the O.Z. Snippet
Title: Meeting the band
A/N: How’s this work for you musicinmytoes “My god does no one answer the freakin’ phone around here?” D.G. asked as it started ringing again. “And why in the world do you people not have an answering machine?” She finally managed to locate the cordless phone under a pile of sheet music. It was Henry from The Zone ( Read more... )

“And why in the world do you people not have an answering machine?”
--That is a very good question. If they want to become famous, wouldn't having an answering machine be a good thing? Just in case a producer calls? I know what Margaret's getting them for Christmas! Or whomever's birthday comes first.
“Did I forget to get limes again? Why is it that I’m the only person working there that can get the damned things?”
--Apparently you are because Margaret's promised not to get any.
Is this one going to last longer then a month, and not flake when it comes to crowds?
--No, she will not flake because she would have to put up with her siblings if she did.
...figuring if everything was set up then she could work with Margaret (she was fully intending to shorten that once she got a feel for the girl)...
--Margaret is saying no way in hell.
D.G. hoisted herself onto the stage watching as Margaret did the same with a fluid grace.
--That would be the inner!cheerleader coming out to play.
"And as far as ‘being taken’ goes my boyfriend is currently deployed, but hopefully he’ll be back by the end of the month."
--You mentioned Bradley. That makes Margaret very happy.
I’m not going to call her Margaret though. She’ll just have to live with Dollface.
--Margaret's saying she's fine with this but just don't shorten her name.
:D

I know how it is with siblings (mine SUCK! in huge ways). So it'll be good for Margaret to be at The Zone to get away from them.
*I can see D.G. calling her Chica or possibly once she gets to know her better sweety (I call everyone sweety...)
Bradley, that's his name, I couldn't remember it, and didn't want to delay posting this to look it up. I felt like it should be established early on that there won't be any tension...
I'm really glad you liked this introduction.

--She's still saying she's getting them an answering machine. ;) But I, on the other hand, understand your reasoning.

--I'm sorry to hear that. D: Well her only sister lives in NYC, her oldest brother lives in the DC area, her youngest brother is enrolled at Harvard, and Margaret's currently...wherever this is taking place. So they're pretty much spread out. But they get along - for the most part.

--Margaret's going to have to think about that one. At work, it's 'hon' for me. Even though we're supposed to call people by their first names because doing so is a sign of respect, 'hon' just works so much better. And it's so much easier.

--You did much better than me! I couldn't think of Janel or Eric's names earlier today. I could remember Trevor's but the oldest two siblings were escaping me. Because tension between DG and Wyatt is good (I love me some UST), tension between DG and Wyatt and Margaret is bad.
I'm really glad you liked this introduction.
--I'm still grinning.

-I'm cool with Margaret getting them an answering machine. I'm not sure about established birthdays or the like yet, but I'd imagine the first time she wants to get a hold of D.G. and can't reach her cause there's no machine...
-I vassilate (I think that's the right word) between Sweety, and hun. With my best girlfriends it's Chica though...

The thing she wants to contact DG about will be completely trivial - like shoe shopping. No, wait, shoes are definitely not trivial. We'll say supper.
The next day, she'll be out hunting down an answering machine, showing up at their door, and saying "This is an answering machine. Y'all are going to use it. Comphrende?" All the while giving them her best stare down. Which coming from a 5'8" girl isn't that scary. ;)
And if it's not, you just gave the word another meaning.
