On the one hand, GOLD. On the other, PAINFUL agonizing failure.
Oh, that was a factor Tulio hadn’t considered; but from the look of her clothing, her mannerisms, and the jewelry she sported, he was confident that they could score big. ❝Don’t worry about the what if’s, that’s my job! ❞ the Spaniard hissed with a large grin before he shoved his friend into the throng of afternoon shoppers that frequented their near by hovel.
Miguel and Tulio might have been a bit of an unconventional duo, but they were pretty damn good at what they did. Tulio formulated the plans, and then Miguel’s charismatic self went and put them into action. The older of the two, despite what he might claim, had always lacked the social skills needed to actually put their ideas into action when they happened to involve other people aside from themselves. He could do the talking once things got going, but could never find it within himself to start it all off.
“Well, I mean, if she doesn’t have any sort of money-- Perhaaaaps we should move on to someone else?”
@falselydivine
❝Alright Miguel, listen closely. ❞ Tulio whispered as he gathered his friend to his side and subtlety pointed out a kindly looking woman. ❝Use that charm to go convince that woman that you lost your dog and really sell that he’s your everything and once she feels bad enough, I’ll parade, ❞ he paused and pointed to the stray tethered close by, ❝that dog out and claim he’s for sale. If we’re lucky, she’ll want to buy it trying to cheer you up. Make sense?❞
Miguel listened carefully, nodding every so often to make sure it seemed like he understood. The blond was always willing to do this sort of thing, so it came as no surprise when he agreed to do so right away. He had the charm to pull such a thing off, so he wasn’t too worried about the outcome of it all.
“Make it seem like he’s my child. Got it! But-- What if she doesn’t have any money on her? What then?”
‘ oh YEAH? so–– what do i get?? ‘
“Well, let’s see-- Half..? Yes, half of whatever it is I make.”

❛ when you said fixer upper for some reason i wasn’t expecting it to be THIS bad. ❜ she winced slightly as she turned in a slow circle to eye the old home’s would-be living room. the place was charming on the outside, a bit run-down, but charming. a little work and it could have been PERFECT. the smile on miguel’s face alone made her want the house. how in love he was with it had her falling for it as well.
then came the inside of the house. though she could tell why someone might have bought it once upon a time now it was falling APART. it was clear why it was going at such a low price. the owner just wanted the dump off their hands and miguel was brimming with excitement. which meant behind her back their real estate agent had been showing him this NIGHTMARE and now he was set on it. but when she’d said she hadn’t minded a fixer upper that they could make perfect just for them she hadn’t meant “let’s buy a train wreck and see what happens”.
❛ my uncle taught me a BIT about the “fixing stuff up” thing but this house needs some SERIOUS love. ❜
“Oh, I don’t think it’s that bad-- A few sleepless nights spent fixing things, trying not to... You know, fall through the floor-- Think of it like an adventure! Of-- Sorts...”
Alright, so the house was a little more run down than he had let on, but it was nothing that he could not eventually fix! Honestly, he thought it was essentially a steal anyway, as they would be saving money in the long run, but it was clear that Chel wasn’t as in love with it as he was. She would come around he was certain, but it definitely was not a secret that she had been hoping for something a little better.
Stepping into the center of the living room, the young man spread his arms out as though he were attempting to show it all off; as though Chel couldn’t see it perfectly enough as it was. Though, judging my his blooming smile, it was quite obvious that Miguel was not going to budge on the subject of choosing another place to live. A place that would not require as much work.
“See? I think it’s fine. Haven’t fallen through the floor just yet or anything of the sort!”
@falseservant
“You know, eventually, I honestly think that we might decide on a vacation spot-- Maybe...”
The two had been talking back and forth, shooting ideas at one another for weeks now. Though, neither could really decide on a place. Miguel had seen enough of Europe for a while, so the countries within it’s territory were out of the question. But they both agreed on some place warm, so maybe they would be able to come to a complete agreement sooner rather than later?
‘ i.. i don’t know if i’m READY to step into the CRIME BRANCH! ‘
‘ what would mom say? ‘
“Nothing! So long as, you know-- Don’t... Tell her..? That would be my advice, yeah.”
‘ –– a couple thousand?? come on, amigo. i’m 9! ‘
“--All the more reason to do it! They’ll never suspect you!”
@diilly
“Look, I’m not saying that we’re going to do something illegal, buuut-- If a couple thousand pesetas come up missing, who’s going to know that it was us?”
@strxngbear
“Missing gold... Missing gold... Nope! Sorry! I’m afraid I don’t have the slightest clue as to what you’re talking about! Now, if you don’t mind, I’ll just-- Go...”
deep breathes chel. deep calming breathes. this is NOT a disaster and everything is okay. everything will be okay at least, once they have a plan. tulio isn’t the only one who can come up with a good plan. she and miguel can totally do this.
❛ oh no miguel i don’t blame you i blame you both!! once we get tulio out i am killing you two for this! gone for three hours without telling me where you’re off to then you come back and one of you got yourself arrested?! dead, dead, dead, dead, dead!!! ❜ her face screams irritation once her hand has finished dragging down it but inside she’s a bit scared for tulio’s well-being. but fear can wait or serve to motivate her brain to start working. after closing her eyes for a second as if to fight away an impending headache her hands take hold of miguel’s shoulders.
❛ first things first you didn’t get hurt during any of this did you? ❜
One would think that Miguel would have learned to keep his mouth closed for once in his life, but no. Of course not. Whenever the man feels the need to speak, no matter how foolish what he has to say is, he just flat out says it. Such a thing had gotten him into trouble numerous times in the past, so you would think that he would have been able to at least catch himself by this point, but no. His big mouth continued to get him into trouble.
“Er-- Well, physically, no-- Though, Tulio did call me a fool once or twice, so my feelings might have been hurt. But... That isn’t what you meant-- Is it?”
Honestly, taking your eyes off of Miguel and Tulio for a second had turned into a terrible idea. Chel had become the only good source of reason as of late, so without her, it was as though you were taking away the babysitter of two small children. Needless to say, without Chel, Miguel and Tulio couldn’t seem to stay out of trouble for more than five minutes.
@falseservant
“You really can’t blame me for all of that, can you? After all, I hardly think it’s my fault that Tulio went off and did what he did. We just-- Have to bail him out now, is all! No big deal!”
( starter call! )
what do you specifically find the most attractive feature on a woman? I want miguel to answer this time since the mun usually does
“I’m not entirely certain how many times you want me to answer this question, but– Their heart. Seriously. What attracts me a woman is how she treats other people; how she supports and encourages those around her. Kind of sappy, I know, but– It’s true! We’re expected to make immediate judgements on women based on empty, superficial aspects of their appearance; their waist size, their height, their hair, and things like that, and while, sure, all of that is absolutely great to look at, I don’t feel quite right judging someone by their looks alone.”
@falsedivinity
“What if... I told you that absolutely none of this was my fault? Thaaaat the entire situation with the royal guard was a complete misunderstanding?”
Visibly shrinking in size, the Spaniard let out a rather nervous chuckle. He was in big trouble this time--
@ackersnow
“What? No-- I don’t have the slightest clue as to what you’re talking about. I have never seen that before in my life! How it got into my bag, I’ll never know--”
Now, the Spaniard could weave a lie and have people actually believe it some of the time, he happened to be a terrible liar most of the time. Case and point, right now. As he attempted to shrug off the accusation of thievery, Miguel ever so slowly crept backwards in an attempt to escape-- Maybe he could grab something else on the way out.
