005: Audio (Black Bars Curse)

[itsjustafruit]

What are you gawking at? Never seen a naked person before?

Look, can you car--

[Someone, presumably whomever Crowley's speaking to, makes an unintelligible comment and starts to laugh until the laugh is cut off, turning to a strangled scream that recedes as though the screamer is running very far away, very fast.]

Inconvenient.

[Crowley is naked, and per canon, angels (which Crowley started out as, tyvm) are "sexless unless they really want to make an effort." He's not making the effort, and he has acquired the turntable he was so... ahem... excited by, so he's unwilling to turn into a snake and leave it behind. Naked, Ken doll!Crowley at your service for action, voice, or video that the City will happily turn on at inconvenient moments.]

Carla. Now I'll know whom to credit when I see ripples of incivility in the City.

[dignity_misery]

[She grins.]

I'm flattered.

[itsjustafruit]

[Flattery's free, so why not?]

You're over your disappointment or do I need to mention how enjoyable it is to know that there are people who will antagonize strangers for the simple pleasure of it?

[dignity_misery]

It wouldn't hurt.

[itsjustafruit]

Consider it mentioned. [Although he won't mention his pleasure that she isn't talking about some imagined lack of anatomy on his part.]

[dignity_misery]

[Well, that... was what she was talking about when they started this conversation... She hasn't seen an amusing enough reason to bring it up again.]

Thanks.

[itsjustafruit]

[Clearly she was only talking about the screaming. Clearly. Right? Right.]

Don't get too used to it. I'm in a generous mood.

[dignity_misery]

Maybe I should abuse your generosity, then.

[itsjustafruit]

Now you're just fishing for compliments?

[dignity_misery]

Lunch, actually.

[Also: a glutton.]

[itsjustafruit]

[One eyebrow does a slow climb toward his hairline.]

Dutch.

[dignity_misery]

Tch. Half?

[itsjustafruit]

Half only if you amuse me. Otherwise you pay for your entire meal yourself.

[dignity_misery]

What an asshole. Sure.

[itsjustafruit]

I've been called worse. Let me get this box home and I'll meet you.

[Action, logged, or assumed? Or something off the a la carte menu?]

[dignity_misery]

[She does this to people so often I tend to assume it, but I am perfectly happy to carry on, if you like!]

That Thai place in the garden.

[itsjustafruit]

[Since I have a busy week ahead, let's go with assumed. They can make life living hell for whatever poor soul is their server and Crowley won't tip.]

They'd better not have vinyl seats.

[dignity_misery]

[Perfecto! Carla is a black hole and orders about half the menu every time she goes out to eat. Sob.]

They're cushioned, don't bitch.

[itsjustafruit]

Tell me that when you're setting your bare assets on vinyl in August.

[Just that kind of eating is why Crowley didn't agree to just pay half, and since he's an asshole, he'll only pay for one drink, appetizer, entree, and dessert even though she'll amuse him.]

[dignity_misery]

Should I strip down so you aren't lonely.

[A.) She would B.) She won't even feign surprise :|]

[itsjustafruit]

Yes. I'll look for the naked woman when I get there.

[Beauty and beauty and thanks!]
