195 - Tsunade

[slug_sannin]

[The feed kicks in with the sounds of an electric bass playing.  Loudly.  Apologies to anyone in building three, particularly the second floor.  There's a note that doesn't sound like it belongs.]

Piece of shit fucking F sharp.

[The music starts over, this time without the error.]

Hell yeah.  [She finally notices the red light of the communicator that

[See this smile? This is the smile of a man who's trying his best not to give away the fact he's just spotted the best teasing material for months]

Have you got any headache pills? I'm feeling the after-effects of my wish.

[slug_sannin]

Yeah, I've got some in the clinic. Coming off the caffeine now, huh?

[She laughs, strumming on the bass still.]

Addiction's not good for you.

[white_beret]

It's not an addiction! It's just an intense, frequent liking.

I'll come up and take whatever you want to dispense for me.

[slug_sannin]

I'll be there in a minute, I've got to get this sorted out or I'll be all distracted. Want to just meet me there?

[padawanwizard]

[ smirk ]

Might wanna watch those stray notes, they creep up on you.

[slug_sannin]

Shut it, problem's been dealt with.

[Making a face at you.]

[padawanwizard]

[ This face? This is TOTALLY her contrite face. Really. She practiced it in the mirror and eeeeeeverything.

Okay, really she's not even trying. Teasing Tsunade is fun! ]

You mean you finally gave up music? I never thought this day would come!

[slug_sannin]

You want to come over here and hear this in person? Your brain will melt, guaranteed.

[kingroadie]

Think everyone hates the communicator, Tsunade, kinda just the way of this place.

Nice playin' though, even with the little mess up. [Even as a giant Krogan beast, he knows about guitars. They're just SPAAACE guitars.]

[slug_sannin]

You'd think I'd be used to it by now, but it still pisses me off.

[She rolls her eyes. Of course that's on camera.] Like anyone gets it right the first time. Won't happen again.

[kingroadie]

Don't think it'll ever not happen or not piss you off. [He laughs a little easily back.]

You just gotta relax with it, be one with the guitar. [Says the space reptile who probably breaks guitars with his giant fingers.]

[slug_sannin]

It's like a constant in this fucked up universe.

. . . it's a bass, dumbass. [But she says it so nicely.]

[harry_b_dresden]

[OOC: So canon swap is a thing that isn't going to happen now 'cause someone's swapping to DF.

So have a Harry, blinking confusedly.

Not sure if mind.]

You show that note, Tsunade. [He clears his throat]

You're looking nice. Maybe I should stop by, help you out with that, you know, maybe I could improve the sound by walking by the amp. Check for... [possession? What is even going down?]

[slug_sannin]

You've blown out two of my amps, don't even think about wrecking another.

[Hi, boyfriend, your punk rocker girlfriend is happy to see you. She smiles down at the communicator.]

But you should still come back to the apartment.

[harry_b_dresden]

[Blink. That is a smile and tone of voice combination Harry doesn't hear often.]

Ok. I'll be right down.

[Already broke two of her...what? Since when did Tsunade have any- Don't ask. Just an experiment, don't ask. Be on your guard in case of vampires, dresden, she could be a- Oh, what the hell.

He heads back to the apartment.

So maybe he's got his jacket's collar up. It was...cold out.]

[slug_sannin]

[A voice echoes down the hallway when she hears him come into the apartment.]

You stay out of this room! I'll be out in a second, kid down the hall's screaming again and I've got to give it a break before he has an aneurysm and I've gotta fix it.

[One last bad ass riff and his girlfriend emerges, dressed in ripped black and spikes. She is the epitome of rocker bad ass.]

Hey, handsome.

[Sort of action?]

[grouchinleather]

[Angry teenager screaming down the hall is go.] Oh my god, SHUT THE FUCK UP ALREADY!

Re: [Sort of action?]

[slug_sannin]

[The music comes to a stop. The silence stretches out. Did that actually work . . . ]

SHUT THE HELL UP, BRAT!

[Adult screaming back down the hall is also a go.]

[Sort of action!]

[grouchinleather]

[Ahhh sweet silence...]

YOU HAVE THE ENTIRE FUCKING SPACE STATION TO PLAY YOUR CRAPPY MUSIC, YOU OLD HAG! GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!

Re: [Sort of action!]

[slug_sannin]

I AM NOT HAULING MY AMP ALL OVER THE FUCKING STATION BECAUSE YOU CAN'T HANDLE SOME FUCKING ROCK DURING THE DAY WHEN EVERYONE'S AWAKE ANY WAY QUIT YOUR BITCHIN'!
