Sam: Hurry. I'm late for a very important date.

Alex: New tattoo idea... hmm...

Sam: Don't make me pout. You know how much fun it is to catch me. Come on. It's lunchtime, I'm in my apartment, and I'm not wearing any pants.

Alex: Oh darling, you know just how to thrill me.

Alex: (I think that's a song lyric... popped into my head.)

Alex: Otw. ;)

Sam: Ha. I don't know how YOU haven't caught me yet. It's really a shame. It's like you're not even trying.

Alex: D'you really think I don't have a plan? Babe, I am a master of plans I just wait to execute them until I'm ready.

The best part of the holidays?

[gorgeouselliottgilbert-deactiva]

I am jealous I seem to be the only one in my family with any fashion sense. I don’t know how any of them managed to find someone to breed with with they way they dress. That’s good, dresses usually do the trick. They’re like my secret weapon. Well while its mostly vegetable based its completely wrapped in bread with a bread and rice stuffing. Its basically a carb fest, at least the way I make it. It really really can, I’ve seen more than one tofu disaster in my life. But I can totally teach you how to make it! If you’re nice I can teach you how to make my infamous gravy. I’ve been told I’m a fun cook, usually because there’s a lot of singing involved. 

Good, don’t forget that darlin. I could try, but I think that could end up going worse in the long run. My family always has a way of figuring out things I don’t want them too. However I am definitely going to try to duck out early. See if I can slip out without them knowing. Definitely, unless something horrible is happening to them. So how were your festivities?

[hunteratscandals-blog]

While the saying is “it’s not about looks, it’s about what’s inside,” your sentiments and mine are the same. You’ve got to have a pretty face and at least a decent wardrobe to be considered for my bed, and anything else? The standards are exceptionally high. I feel sorry for their kids if both the parents lack taste. Secret weapon? Makes it sound like you hide ninja stars in the fabric to cut people as needed. That... sounds absolutely heavenly. Three or four servings of that would be necessary. I am always nice. Always. Do you sing whatever you want to or do you sing directly to the food? The image of you singing NIN to a plate of vegetables made my day.

There’s zero chance that I’d be able to. What if you actually do have plans with someone else? Would they be willing to let up and let you roam free if you weren’t lying about it? At least if Christmas is involved the chance of slipping out with money and/or presents, even if you can’t get away early, is high. Wonderful! Sam and I did the whole ‘meet the family’ with my side of things and the food was superb as always. Company was a bit... dry, aside from my girlfriend and my sister, but it was worth it to leave with a full belly and less harassment than usual.

The best part of the holidays?

Yeah, least I think so? No one died and the Turkey itself was pretty juicy. Ma said the sauce was too sweet but I thought it tasted awesome.

Well, I’ve been thinking about maybe picking up a few shifts in the kitchen so I’m practising and stuff. I can just about put stuff in microwave, or at least that was me a few weeks back. It’s not something I ever thought about getting good at.

[hunteratscandals-blog]

Uh, it’s awesome that no one died?? A very strange statement in concurence to Thanksgiving, but given what you told me I must admit it made me laugh. Too... sweet? Isn’t that the whole point of cranberry sauce? Perfect blend of tart and sweet and delicious.

What kind of cuisine are you looking to study? If you ever want some help with that outside of work - not that the extra hands in the kitchen/hours on the clock aren’t appreciated - I would be more than happy to help. Most nights I end up making a fairly simple dinner for Sam and I and you’re welcome to come over and learn the process.

[rosesxwritingdesks]

I might just stick to vapor rub, for now. If it gets worse, we’ll see. (I’d consider it sweet, at least.) That’s great! I was hoping you’d both have a good holiday, well, everyone really but, y'know. Ohh, finance. So, like people who run their own business, entrepreneurs, or..? Good, great, thank you.

[hunteratscandals-blog]

Are you starting to feel any better after having the holidays to rest up? (Then I’ll stick to ‘thank you’, and ‘anytime’.) Yeah, yeah I get it. It’s awesome to have that initial awkward meeting over with. Honestly watching Sam getting quizzed on her intentions by my sister was been worth it even if it hadn’t gone well. People who run their own business, usually smaller businesses or businesses that are taking profit cuts when they shouldn’t be. I heard you invited the boss to your dinner table. That must’ve been interesting.

That makes me all the more appreciative for custom tailors and the like, who save quite a bit of time and effort that it takes to browse store after store. Being trampled over in the name of luxurious obsession? Not quite my idea of “enjoying the finer things in life,” and actually a very literal “downfall.” 

I find the former to be a most excellent tactic most of the time; spark up some debate between individuals, then quietly slip away as the discussion intensifies. Marcus and his family were incredibly gracious to have me over for the evening. How was your holiday? Did you make an appearance at your family’s family’s formal after all?

[hunteratscandals-blog]

Even if you don’t go for the custom tailor, which you know how much I appreciate your taste for doing so, you can shop online and have it altered later on or even just hit up the stores when they have their usual season sales or clearance days. There are ways to be smart and it’s a sad fact just how few people seem to have reason or logic.

It’s my go-to tactic at business dinners, too. Bring up a hot button topic that fires up the older men and women especially and disappear with the bottle of wine they brought out. Or move to a more interesting conversation with someone else. Did you have fun meeting them? Or have you met them before? I’m always so surprised by such generosity. We did! Sam and I made our way to the formal dinner later in the day to do the ‘meet the family’ bit, and after it was affirmed they loved her they let up on me more than they usually do.

[pennyxowens-archive]

Exactly where my thoughts were. I mean, you’re very vulnerable at the moment to my hi-jinks what with you not being here much. 

Oh they will always be in good fun, but I’d rather have the first punch. 

[hunteratscandals-blog]

The easiest way to avoid that would be to just grab the stuff I care about and crash somewhere else. Deprive you of your fun from the get-go.

Didn’t your mother teach you not to hit a girl? I’d argue that violence isn’t the answer more seriously, but I was taught to strike first pretty young.

Fine, are most bisexuals supposed to ruin everything?

[hunteratscandals-blog]

Yes. It’s much more fun that way.

Sam: So, that means I should make sure that you're incredibly oversensitive. And keep you that way. Right?

Alex: I'm pretty positive this is me asking please. You know you're being stolen on break. Again.

Alex: How have we not gotten caught yet?

[kylesbaker-deactivated20171128]

Karlita is in a funk

[kylesbaker-deactivated20171128]

Really? I’d like that. Coffee sometime soon? On me?

I won’t smell so good that someone will try to eat me though, right?

[hunteratscandals-blog]

Sounds like a plan. Maybe Monday or Tuesday after work? Though if you fork it up this time next time we go to coffee it’s on me.

...Finley. That’s. If someone actually tries to eat you you should be seriously worried and call the CDC to report a zombie virus, no matter how much massage oil is on you.

She’s pretty calm for a puppy, but when she hears her name,s he’s very happy. Let me enjoy my dog. Are lesbians just meant to ruin everything?

[hunteratscandals-blog]

Didn’t deny you your rights to anything, Kit. Just questioned a name. If I was a lesbian I could answer your question, but I’m not, so try again.

Sam: I mean, technically for my job, I just need to be able to drive. Which is mostly sitting.

Alex: I have to move. A lot. And clean things. And probably find you on your break and that's the only time I'll be sitting. ;)

Sam: I don't have the energy for anything that needs to be unwrapped. I kind of just want to nap between rounds. Is that a thing?

Alex: It is definitely a thing. A wonderful, wonderful thing.

Alex: We kinda need to be able to walk come Monday, though. "Sorry boss quitting my job to do the do 24/7" never works.

Sam: Baby carrots.

Sam: I'm gonna get you back by the way.

Alex: Water and carrots? You sound like me.

Alex: [grin emoji] I'm looking forward to it. A busy Thanksgiving weekend working all those calories off.

Sam: Maybe a glass of water? I don't think I can get up.

Alex: Consider it done, babe.

Alex: Anything else?
