It fits.

It’s a crime in this home.

What they don’t know can’t hurt.

[dionmiller]

It fits.

[cass-ramsay10]

We’ll play after dinner while Barry and Theo are cuddling on the couch.

You know we can’t interrupt Dad’s time with Barry.

[dionmiller]

It fits.

[cass-ramsay10]

Wonderful! Want to play?

I’m always down for games.

[cass-ramsay10]

It requires close quarters, a lot of touching, and us to be very very quiet to make sure no one comes and ruins the game.

Oh. Ohhhh. Wouldn’t you know it, I’m actually really good at that game.

[cass-ramsay10]

Well I thought we could play another game while we were hiding.

Mmm, go on.

[cass-ramsay10]

He looks tough, but I think I have more experience.

He’s been hiding here for years.

[cass-ramsay10]

Unfortunately. But it helps if you have a partner in crime.

Oh, are you applying for the job? Competition’s pretty fierce between you and the dust bunny over there.

[cass-ramsay10]

Well first you have to be super sneaky and quiet.

So I’m guessing the noisemakers and ass-kicking boots are out, then?

[cass-ramsay10]

That just means you have to get more creative with hiding.

Got any tips? Seems like you do.

[cass-ramsay10]

I’ve noticed. Are you watched closely as well?

Not usually. Quarantine’s different because there’s nowhere to go.

[cass-ramsay10]

I wonder what else of his I can get my paws on.

My dad might know where other stuff is. He keeps tabs on his man.

[cass-ramsay10]

I found Barry’s old leather jacket in some boxes. How do I look?

You look like a punk which to Barry is the highest compliment.

[dionmiller]

It fits.

[cass-ramsay10]

What fits?

[cass-ramsay10]

I’ve got to prove I’m committed.

I feel you there. We’d probably be trashing some hotel room somewhere. We hate bars and clubs, but my friends do get rowdy, so I usually restrict them to wherever we are staying for the night.

Edgy. You love to see it.

That’s so rock and roll, Jesus Christ. Shame they didn’t follow you here, it’d make quarantine a little more interesting. Anyone drive any cars into a pool?

[cass-ramsay10]

I’ll have a needle ready.

I couldn’t agree more. So, what is it you’d normally be doing tonight if we weren’t all terrified of catching the plague?

This is definitely good praxis during a pandemic.

Oh, easy. At a show or a party. Probably with like, Charlie and all them. I do have to say, this pandemic is killing my vibe. What sort of shenanigans would you be up to on tour right now?

[cass-ramsay10]

You’re good. You’ll be liked. Swearsies.

Me. I made a deal with the devil at a crossroads. But sh, my Catholic mother wouldn’t approve. She thinks I’m just naturally gifted, silly woman.

Hope so. Pinky swear. 

I’ll say a prayer for your soul but good god was it worth it. Sorry, mom.
