MCA #5, Thursday Morning

Apr 04, 2013 13:12

This week could just go bum itself, for all Sarah cared. As if it wasn't enough to be moping about personal reasons anyway, of course she had to feel twitchy and restless for a fucking week too. And to top it all off, this morning she was woken up by her phone ringing across the room, and she'd had to stumble out of bed, and of course it was a ( Read more... )

April, as it happened, had spent her morning somewhere else that was yet to be posted, but when she got back to MCA and found her apartment totally dark, she was rather annoyed about it. Even though she'd just had the best breakfast of her life and should really be less grumpy, yeah.

So she stalked upstairs to where her nearest neighbor lived and knocked on the door. "Hey," she called, "is your power out and whatever?"

She wasn't sure what the point of asking was, but she'd seen people do it in movies.

Movies. Porn. Whatever, people still did it, right?

It was amazing Sarah even bothered coming to the door. Mostly she'd been throwing stuff around ever since she'd short circuited everything.

"Yes," she grumbled, having yanked the door open. "What of it?"

As you asked, when you had nothing to do with it.

Re: Talk to Sarah [MCA 04/04] hatesmoststuff April 4 2013, 13:00:43 UTC

"I don't know, it sucks and whatever?" Yeah, April had no idea what the next step was. "It's hot."

Re: Talk to Sarah [MCA 04/04] electrocynic April 4 2013, 14:24:23 UTC

"Yeah, well, that's not for me to fix." Just to cause. "Could be another fucking island thing."

She was actually pretty used to lying about having caused something.

Re: Talk to Sarah [MCA 04/04] hatesmoststuff April 4 2013, 14:31:16 UTC

"Yeah, great," said April, who hadn't suspected Sarah in the first place, "but everything sucks, so, I don't know, if you have any suggestions or wisdom or whatever...?"

Yeah, she had not been lying when she'd spoken to Jack about Sarah. Definitely bangable.

Re: Talk to Sarah [MCA 04/04] electrocynic April 4 2013, 15:00:36 UTC

Yeah and April wasn't bad either, but Sarah was kind of still feeling too pissy to pay attention to that. Yet, anyway.

"Maybe go outside or something. I don't care."

Great advice.

Re: Talk to Sarah [MCA 04/04] hatesmoststuff April 4 2013, 16:07:22 UTC

April made a face. "Gross, the outdoors," she complained. "Want to, I dunno, help me finish ice cream before it melts or something?"

Re: Talk to Sarah [MCA 04/04] electrocynic April 4 2013, 16:13:12 UTC

Sarah considered that.

And then she decided it couldn't possibly make her day worse.

"Yeah, sure, whatever."

Re: Talk to Sarah [MCA 04/04] hatesmoststuff April 4 2013, 16:44:27 UTC

With the bare minimum head movement necessary to constitute a nod in the direction of her apartment, April started in that direction. "This dumb week," she muttered as she did. "'s fucking stupid."

Again, she'd had the best breakfast ever, so she really shouldnt be complaining right now.

Re: Talk to Sarah [MCA 04/04] electrocynic April 4 2013, 16:48:46 UTC

Sarah grabbed her key off the table by the door before stepping out of her apartment and closing the door so she could follow.

"It's the fucking dumbest thing," she agreed. "I don't know what I expected. Everything's been fucking idiotic for weeks now."

Re: Talk to Sarah [MCA 04/04] hatesmoststuff April 4 2013, 17:23:41 UTC

"Might've missed the 'weeks' part," April commented dryly. "Something else weird going on?"

Re: Talk to Sarah [MCA 04/04] electrocynic April 4 2013, 17:27:01 UTC

"Does 'boyfriend left you for another galaxy' count as weird?" Sarah drawled back to her.

Re: Talk to Sarah [MCA 04/04] hatesmoststuff April 4 2013, 17:31:48 UTC

"...Yeah, that's pretty fucking not normal," April decided. "What the fuck. What an ass."

Was it possible that sex pollen was subconsciously having an effect on her choice of curse words? Because... well, it was on her mind.

"Bet he feels like an moron now if whatever's going on here's affecting him in space too." Though admittedly the timing was equally crappy on Sarah's end.

Re: Talk to Sarah [MCA 04/04] electrocynic April 4 2013, 17:35:26 UTC

"I don't care what that pillock feels." That was such a lie. "I just want the island to stop being such a pain in my arse."

Re: Talk to Sarah [MCA 04/04] hatesmoststuff April 4 2013, 17:41:12 UTC

"Yeah," April said, fishing her keys out of her pocket to unlock her door, then pushing it open for Sarah. "Join the club."

And that would be a friendly three-legged pit bull bounding over to inspect April's guest.

"What I wanna know is if this island is full of astronauts and, like, wizards and whatever, why can't someone make it stop being so fucking annoying?"

Re: Talk to Sarah [MCA 04/04] electrocynic April 4 2013, 17:59:12 UTC

"Because that would be too fucking easy," Sarah decided as she was stepping in. And glancing at the dog, yes. "That dog has three legs."

Astute observation there, Sarah.
