I'm just gonna officially state, for the record...

[He gestures to the crumpled up tabloid which, unfortunately, possesses an article all about him and how he is, apparently, extremely suspicious and potentially a criminal, and, apparently, sleeping with half the women in the City. Whether any of this gets close to the truth or not, he's not exactly happy about it, especially given the ridiculous photos of him making idiotic faces.]

... this shit? It ain't funny. 'n anyone who found the time to write about it should go jump in a fuckin' lake.

[Unsatisfied with just crumpling the tabloid, he then pushes it off the table onto the floor, shakes his head, and turns off the feed.]

Well. Have you?

Re: Video

[trenchknives]

Have I wha--

Oh.

Of course I ain't slept with half the women here!

Re: Video

[water_wine_wizard]

Have you slept with a lot?

Re: Video

[trenchknives]

What's "a lot"?

Re: Video

[water_wine_wizard]

[Thinks about this.]

More than five?

Re: Video

[trenchknives]

[He's clearly thinking about it.]

What if it's five even?

Re: Video

[water_wine_wizard]

That could work, yes. I'll accept that.

Re: Video

[trenchknives]

Okay, so, see? Not half. Not even close.

Re: Video

[water_wine_wizard]

Were they any good?

[What?]

[trenchknives]

[Is this a trick question.]

Yeah. So?

I'm sorry I just don't know what she's doing... she'll get to you in a second Jimmy

[water_wine_wizard]

Could I get names?

Jimmy, it's... no one takes these things seriously. Don't worry about it.

Re: video;

[trenchknives]

I ain't worried, I just think it's kinda... confusin'.

[anunluckypenny]

What, trying to tell what's true and what's not? I'm sure no one thinks anything they read today's true.

[Except some of it is.]

Re: video;

[trenchknives]

Yeah, but, y'know, enough of this is close enough to the truth that it's... easy to muddle up.

[spotlighted]

I don't see how it matters either way. I guess it can't be nice to read about yourself, though.

Re: video

[trenchknives]

Well, a man's got a reputation to uphold, y'know.

[spotlighted]

Of course, but you're not the only one this is happening to. I'm sure no one will pay any attention to information revealed during a curse. At least, I hope they won't.

[trenchknives]

Yeah, they better not. They say somethin' about you, too?

[spotlighted]

Yeah. None of it's exactly secret, but it's not things that I'd like for the whole city to be talking about, either.

[trenchknives]

Well, y'know, most of it's lies anyway.

[His isn't... exactly lies, but he doesn't exactly want to admit it, either.]

[spotlighted]

That's even more reason for no one to take it seriously, then.

[trenchknives]

Right, but they don't know it's lies, y'know? I mean, it all sounds believable. And has these stupid fuckin' pictures.

[spotlighted]

Pictures are even easier to take out of context.

[trenchknives]

Sure, I know, but c'mon. Look at that one.

[He picks up the crumpled newspaper just to gesture at it angrily again. It is, admittedly, a pretty stupid picture.]

Who'd even believe that I could sleep with half the women in the City if I looked like that all the time?
