What the HEEL ---??? (posted for July 31st curse)

[skintoskin]

[So, the device is showing a rather nice pair of rich, red pumps. The heel probably is about four inches high and sturdy enough that it doesn't look like it'll slip through a tiny crack in the pavement. The person wearing them is crouched, so you can see their shins. They are holding the device. They stand, slowly and the image on the screen displays the knees and the thighs of the fairly decent, muscular legs of a young wom --

No, wait. Is that a pair of... boxer shorts? Yes, yes, it is. The white undershirt is next and then the collarbone and then... the face of Neil McCormick. He seems... uncertain. When he speaks, he's looking down at the shoes and not at the device.]

Hi. So, um... Yeah. Two things...

First, I think I might need a roommate or a pet or something, because the clock is really starting to get under my damn skin.

And second... I can't get these FUCKIN' SHOES OFF!

[He takes a deep breath and let's it out slowly.]

There. I feel better now.

No, wait, I DON'T! Somebody bring a crow bar or somethin'...


(( OOC: Posted in advance, so I make sure it gets done, lol! Hope that's okay. :) ))

I think I may have creeped out my current roommate. If you don't mind sharing a bed, you could stay with us.

[skintoskin]

No. I just want these things off.

[skintoskin]

Yeah, a crow bar. To get these fuckin' shoes off my feet, 'cause I can't get them off!

[Looks like he's sufficiently agitated that he won't be sitting down any time soon...]

What's so fuckin' funny?

[Distracted by red shoes...]

Huh? What'd you do to creep them out?

[valentineluke]

Hans Christian Andersen may hold the answer.

[skintoskin]

Who the hell is Hans Christian Anderson?

[valentineluke]

You'll find him in the library.

[skintoskin]

What, he lives there or something?

[valentineluke]

Yes, in a manner of speaking. Just ask for him at the front desk and he'll be brought to you.

Your impending hysteria.

[majorcrotchgrab]

I was naked that one day.

[skintoskin]

In a library...?

Shit, he's a writer, isn't he? Very funny...

[skintoskin]

You like watching people freak out?

[skintoskin]

[Pause, two, three, four...]

And...?

[dignity_misery]

I do, it's pretty entertaining.

[majorcrotchgrab]

He wasn't exactly comfortable with it.

[skintoskin]

What about talking people down from freaking out? Do you ever try that?

[dignity_misery]

No, you should call Dr. Chase if that's what you're after.

[skintoskin]

Who?

[skintoskin]

Oh. Is he a prude?
