They Call Her Love

Lotte Kirshbaum But strange and marvelous as she was, a wisp of silk in a forest of black wool, she was not the fragile creature one would have her seem.

"Remind me, who are you?"

[lottekirschbaum]

"Lotte Kirschbaum."

[carolinasmacksmemories]

No we honestly can’t, who knows what secrets I’m hiding.

[lottekirschbaum]

With that haircut? Probably lice.

[bradyfey-deactivated20160816]

And you didn’t think that I would hear it.

[lottekirschbaum]

And you are?

[noah-reischer]

I know, I know. But I didn’t want to start charging you without forewarning, just in case you take it personally. You know I can’t say no to such an offer. 

[lottekirschbaum]

If you know, and I know-- I'll see you later babe.

[carolinasmacksmemories]

I’ll leave the pretending up to you.

[lottekirschbaum]

Might as well, we can't trust you with such things.

[carolinasmacksmemories]

Freedom? It’s amazing, you should try it sometime. 

[lottekirschbaum]

Being rich is amazing too, maybe someone will feel bad and buy you something nice-- and you can pretend.

[noah-reischer]

Appreciated, but I meant more along the lines of any discount fees. I can only sell at full price for the moment- but it’s a temporary measure, I give it a couple weeks tops. 

[lottekirschbaum]

It's fine, I can cover myself, I'm not like, nouveau or anything. I got two ounces and I'm picking up later, want to break into it with me then?

[carolinasmacksmemories]

At the end of the day I’ll have my freedom while you’ll still be someone’s bitch. 

[lottekirschbaum]

I guess that's what townies are used to.

[carolinasmacksmemories]

I’ll have to remember that. Gotta ask Noah to keep a tighter leash on his lap dogs.

[lottekirschbaum]

Rather a rich man's lap dog  than a poor man's mutt.

[noah-reischer]

Oh, Mick? Mick’s my roommate, I’m pretty sure you’ve met him- he’s helping me out in the sales department at the moment. Head’s up, though, all discounts are on temporarily hold.

[lottekirschbaum]

Is he the blonde one? Oh wait, he's the one with the tattoos. I wasn't going to give him like-- one of our discount fees, he's your friend.

[lottekirschbaum]

Don't I. Carry-out or delivery?

I'll come swing by.

[carolinasmacksmemories]

What did you say your name was again? 

[lottekirschbaum]

Lotte.

[noah-reischer]

That’s a good question that I’m not sure of the answer to. They’re probably high and attempting to be funny. What’d they say?

[lottekirschbaum]

Something about coke. You don't mind me buying, from a... Mickey whatever, right? I only buy from you.

[lottekirschbaum]

Buy some coke and I'll make you a key to our room.

Got two ounces?

[carolinasmacksmemories]

Is that so? 

[lottekirschbaum]

You don't have to agree, conflict of interest and all.

[carolinasmacksmemories]

Oh my god, you’re like an idiot aren’t you? Plus what the hell does that have to do with anything? 

[lottekirschbaum]

Everyone knows that the townies just don't know what they're talking about-- or they'd be far more polite.

[noah-reischer]

As much as I enjoy a good Monday catfight, they say that the high road is more gratifying in the long run.

[lottekirschbaum]

Noah, why are your friends texting me?
