accidental video:

[Fuck sand. Fuck the sun. Fuck the heat. Fuck the biting cold that came at night. Fuck eating Charlie-fried critters that people can’t identify. Fuck Eames. Fuck Eames smelly armpits. Fuck being tied to robots by Eames. Fuck Eames and his knowledge of knots. And fuck Eames’ snoring.
This was a combination of thoughts had by Ariadne and Charlie and both girls had decided, sometime around 7 PM, that they needed to get out of their respective residences and into a bar somewhere. As per their usual ‘oh-god-that-curse-was-shit’ routine.
They had a specific bar in mind. One with a Karaoke night and their favorite singer whose name they didn’t actually know. They dubbed him Karaoke Adam ages ago, the name stuck and Charlie and Ariadne were his biggest fans.
Considering they hadn’t seen him since before the desert bullshit, they were concerned and felt it necessary to make sure Adam survived.
The video feed kicks on at about midnight, unbeknownst to the two now-inebriated girls, and overheard is Charlie whispering loudly--]


--pretty sure those aren’t the lyrics.
[There’s no visual on the girls yet. Just a row of drinks in various colors and in varying degrees of consumed. And the girls are sorting them by color. In the background, someone singing ‘Hey, Jude.’ Horribly.
Ariadne speaks.]

I’m telling you, Charlie. That’s puce. I’m an architect. I know these things.

Okay, okay.
[The puce drink gets picked up, it’s gone for a moment and then it’s set back down. Half gone. And now Charlie speaks.]
Oh. Shit. I messed it up. We…we need another puce one. And an orange. [A pause.] That’s the weirdest shade of orange I’ve ever seen. You should…you should make it your life goal to get another puce. And an orange one that’s actually orange otherwise this rainbow is just going to look all wrong.

This is a good goal. I’ll go do that. [Ariadne stands, the video shuffling and it’s now pointed at both girls who look about how they did during that one curse on the 3rd. Hey, when that’s all you have left in clothes and you haven’t been shopping yet, it’s okay to wear corset tops and matching pants and heels again. And okay to do your hair. Because they need this. Charlie spots something on the stage and flails, grabbing at Ariadne’s arm excitedly and missing a few times.]
Sit. Sit, Ariadne! Sit!

What? I thought I had to get---
[Charlie points at the stage, still grinning, and Ariadne looks. Both girls faces light up and they say simultaneously;] It’s Adam!

[And both girls rest their elbows on the table, their chin in their hands and sit with the biggest smiles on their faces, eyes only just a bit unfocused as someone sings on stage.]

[ooc: so...both girls are hammered as hell. and will threadjack the hell out of each other. fair warning. and feel free to threadjack them in return! charlie is red. aria is orange.]

Looks like you've both recovered.
boutant: ([smile] back)

[ Karaoke Adam deserves respect -- other than his made-up name, since neither of the young ladies know what it actually is -- and so Ariadne's mostly quiet while he sings. Once he's offstage and they've cheered, however, it's back to chatting with Charlie, puce drink forgotten. ]

He's still got it.
boutant: ([smile] sun)

[ Oh hi Raymond. Have some waving. ]

If not, we'll be recovered after tonight.

Uh. [Jack...really isn't sure what to make of all this.] You're wearing that outfit again?
boutant: ([smile] fun)

[personal profile] boutant 2012-03-03 02:35 am (UTC)(link)
Me too. I'm happy we're here. [ No more sand, no more glass, just people singing badly and alcohol. ]
boutant: ([event] popcorn)

[personal profile] boutant 2012-03-03 02:36 am (UTC)(link)
I left the fishnets behind, but I like the dress. [ Jack, you walk around in a dorky sweater, you can't even talk. ]
boutant: ([default] inside a land forgotten)

[personal profile] boutant 2012-03-03 02:37 am (UTC)(link)
[ Ariadne looks up, following her gaze before wincing as well. ] Yeah. I think he tried to sing 'Sabotage' last time and one of us thought sabotaging the stage would've been a good idea.

After your hangover, you mean.
saidrepent: (00:03)

[personal profile] saidrepent 2012-03-03 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
Well, it's certainly not the worst way.
boutant: ([think] nice thoughts)

[personal profile] boutant 2012-03-03 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
I will take a hangover over being trapped in a van with ten other people. You can treat hangovers with water and aspirin. Not much you can do about the van.

And possibly burnt the place down, and then no more karaoke. [ And that would make Adam said because he loves karaoke, and that would make them sad because they love Adam and his love for karaoke. ]

We probably would've fallen out while he was driving.

[ Things Ariadne is good at: holding a grudge even while drunk. ]
wouldnotkindly: (neutral look)

[personal profile] wouldnotkindly 2012-03-03 02:44 am (UTC)(link)
Oh. [He honestly wasn't expecting an answer from her.] That sounds...pretty bad.
boutant: ([default] leave my door open)

[personal profile] boutant 2012-03-03 02:44 am (UTC)(link)
I do after that curse. Six whole pairs.

[His sweater is not dorky, excuse you.] Well, uh... It does look good on you.
