·• ♡ Vix finished off the bottle and smashed it on the ground, screaming and laughing. “HA…. what?”  

He hadn’t seen anyone standing there, and he didn’t really take the new scenery into account either.  The lizard was looking to get fucked up and he was going to do it no matter where he was. 

“The fuck are you talking about? Biiitch I’m dead, I wish they’d try. Anyway you want one?”  He lightly kicked the trunk of the candy red convertible, it popped open to reveal cases of vodka bottles lining the trunk from wall to wall. “I’m here to fuckin party and not remember shit, up to you if you wanna join me.”  ♡ •·

A small jump as the fellow smashed his bottle. Cautiously holding her body stiffly, Mitzi looked at the broken bits of glass, gingerly stepping over the mess. 

“..excuse you?” uttered in disbelief. Very, very few people called her that word. To her face at least! Let alone upon first getting to know her!

“I don’t want any...” cuts off as she looks at the vehicle, “That’s...a rather odd vehicle.”

And quite a LOT of alcohol. 

Perhaps.

She could...join him?

And were he to pass out...take a little souvenir?  

Needless to say, didn’t take Mitzi long to make up her mind.

“Well, since you asked so nicely, of course i’ll join you.”

“Well.. what the hell do ya’ want me ta’ do ‘bout it? help ya’ fight the case against the broad or bub’ tha’ persecuted ya’? I might help — so longs I get half of the money outta’ this.” 

“Hey! I feel ya’ toots’ — gotta stand yer’ ground don’t let ‘em cunts walk all over ya’.”

“Uh...normally money wouldn’t be a problem, but....” ending in a small grumble. Something, something, new headscarf; for layman translations. 

Doesn’t blink at the course language. If anything Ivy was more shocked that he felt ‘alright’ saying those kind of things around her. Typically the gangsters her father hired and several people at Lackadaisy would realize what they said, look affronted and quickly try to backpedal.

Maybe that’s why she liked talking to this guy. Odd looking as he was.

He didn’t treat her like a child or that she had virgin ears. 

“I would...but since I work for them...and boarding over the summer, can’t exactly afford to annoy my bosses or dad will make me come home.”

“Ah yes, secret bills, ones that I am knowing nothing about other than they keep disappearing. Is none of my business so long as they do not end up in sink, or on my head.” Referring of course to a simple adding machine that had continuously found its way on the street despite various staff attempts at returning it. 

For a long while, there was very little other than the metallic sound of wrench on pipe as he worked to disconnect the joint. Not his favorite part of working as one of the few people with technical knowledge, given that he normally ended up-

Covered.

Liquid spilling from the pipe, it was followed quickly by the sound of spluttering and coughing as various bits of food and tokens fell from the blockage. No doubt some of the more careless employees thinking it would wash away. A certain Ms. Pepper was do for a talking to sometime very soon.

“Discretion- Yes, discretion is the vord I vas going for.” Sitting up from beneath the sink, a produced pocket handkerchief would wipe away most of the water from his face.

“I would hardly pass them off to you, darlin. You’re much more adapt at working with your hands than you are number crunching.” A flinch and ears flick and pin back at the loud clanking sound.

Glances up from the papers just time to see him get it open. Wrinkled her nose and visibly disgusted. She has enough sense to swallow a snort of laughter. Viktor hardly needed her cracking up. She’ll hold onto that image and chuckle about it in private.

“...that girl” a sigh, but sense of fondness present. “Can’t exactly fire her, she practically runs this place on her own since we’ve had to cut back on so much.”

Perhaps it was unfair to put so much on a college student, but Ivy offered to work for her mad money, most of it ended up being funneled back to them via the lounge downstairs, but also went to dresses, kohl and other little pretties.

Mitzi for one felt she couldn’t deny her, well Atlas’; goddaughter anything.

“Try not to leave her in tears. You know how...delicate our Miss Pepper is” said teasingly, close to laughing once again.

❛ I am feared by all – with good reason. ❜

❛ What am I thinking? Oh, that I’d decorate these walls with your guts. ❜

❛ You seem calm given the situation. ❜

❛ You said before you had something taken from you. ❜

❛ That was a long time ago. I don’t pay it much mind anymore. ❜

❛ I haven’t shown my hand - I’ve shown one card. I’ve given my enemies a single, provocative datum upon which to fixate. They have no idea what other cards I’m holding. It’s a strong hand, believe me - I dealt it to myself. ❜

❛ You’re still as perfect as the day we met. ❜

❛ They negotiated. Not out of the kindness of their hearts, as they try to make it seem. Because the calculus of power left no other choice. ❜

❛ Some douchebag coming up talking about the greatest feeling in the world: love. Ain’t that a kick in the head? ❜

❛ Waging war against good people is bad for the soul. ❜

❛ Before going forward, I want to know the past. ❜

❛ Road gets rougher from here. Left marks for you, colours will tell the way - if you’re smart. ❜

❛ I warned you, but you still persisted. ❜

❛ You stand on holy ground, a temple to God’s glory on Earth. But the only use for an animal in a temple is sacrifice. ❜

❛ Maybe you just need to be tested. We’ll see. ❜

❛ Like I said: I’m boring. ❜

❛ Do you always deflect personal questions? ❜

❛ I’m going to kill you SO much. ❜

❛ You already lost. Don’t throw away your dignity.  ❜

❛ Too many people have opinions on things they know nothing about. ❜

❛ The pain on a scale of one to ten? I’d say it’s a ‘shut the fuck up and fix me’. ❜

❛ You want some weapon schematics? I can hook that shit up! ❜

❛ You didn’t fool me! I just pretended not to know! ❜

❛ Get up without permission, I’ll blast your ass so far through your head, it’ll turn the moon cherry-pie red. ❜

❛ Whoa - This isn’t what I signed up for. ❜

❛ I’ve heard you are a kind of prankster. ❜

❛ The fact that we’re having this conversation means that you failed, right? ❜

❛ Oh great, just when I thought today couldn’t get any worse. ❜

❛ Longing makes the heart grow fonder. ❜

❛ I survived because the fire inside burned brighter than the fire around me. ❜

Angel vc; "What did ya' do?"

“I didn’t DO anything! I’m being wrongly presecuted! Sure I’m the only cook AND waitress at this cafe, but I know better, “ after being told roughly fifteen times, “ that we don’t have a garbage disposal and I need to scrap stuff into the trash. It’s NOT my fault, but everyone keeps talking about my track record.”

“This is injustice! Double jeopardy! I will not stand for it! I’m changing majors and becoming a lawyer...” a lengthy pause, “...well a legal assistant.” 

[bitofcalico]

“Ever feel like you’re about to be blamed for something you didn’t do?”

[bitofcalico]

she

doesn’t cook

no longer sings/dances/plays an instrument with the band

avoids consulting the debts/bills for as long as she can

which begs the question

what DOES Mitzi May do all day?

“I have not been in a church since I was little boy, mister big shot up top vould not vant me. I think I might more than likely catch fire vhen stepping in for church service.” 

Glancing up from his position beneath the sink, his hands pause in their attempts at fixing the blocked pipe. 

“Not limiting amusement, simply having more… Vhat is vord? Care… Thought… Vhatever, in subject matter. Now, tell me, did you try shoving bills down here again?”

“Never was one for it myself, but one does what one must in order to save face in society.”a sly grin is hidden behind the sheaves of paper. “Certain pews, pulpits and quite a few fancy hats would catch on fire if I set inside such a building myself.”

Leans over the counter to get a better look at him hard at work. She’d help, but then the hem of her dress would get all mussed up and no lady should ever get on her knees at floor level.

“...I think the word you’re looking for is ‘discretion.”

A blink of long lashes answers his questions, “Bills? What bills?” coyness aside, Mitzi shook her head.

“You’ve got the wrong gal, detective. I hardly mess with the kitchen work. You know who all works the cafe portion of this little venture as well as I do.’

Mitzi: scolds Vix for drinking in public

also Mitzi: straight up offers a stranger to booze up their drink with the bottle sitting right there

@kxnkyboots​

“How do you take your coffee? I prefer mine to be a ‘wee bit o Irish’ myself.” Without waiting for a preference, Mimzy presents a cup of black coffee, unaltered or doctored but there is a bottle of whiskey as well as cream and sugar settings placed on the table.

So she was offering to be of service, but failed to deliver.
