winter green miso paste
being on here 5 years does not make you heauxes a tumblr ancient. im sorry but you have to have been here when ppl still said ācreysā andĀ āwhat is airā and you actually remember this cursed imaged
wow, havenāt been on this blog for... ages. well, time to dust off and get back to it!
Busted. āā¦Christ, I dun even have an excuse to give.ā Batting her eyelashes and acting sweet wouldnāt work on this one. āForgive me for not beinā very ladylike. I ought not to be starinā so blatantly, I know.ā She smiles sheepishly and bites her tongue before letting out a laugh. āItās puttinā ideas in my head, yes. But Iāll be polite and pretend it aināt happeninā.ā
Nodding, she turns and heads down the street. She doesnāt take too many trips to this particular convenience store, but sheās willing to make an exception tonight. āā¦so, you enjoyinā beinā back so far?ā
āā "Be glad I'm not charging," he joked, "But first five minutes' usually free." He'll be making a lot of money, if ever. He followed her lead, then, walking next to her. It's been a while, but the air hasn't changed.Ā
"Yeah, it feels the same. People are still mad and accusing the heavens... and hell. Am I enjoying it? Ask me again after I've had a Twinkie."Ā
"I do remember. But I try to focus on theĀ nicer smells most people emit.ā And now she has to pretend like sheās giving him aĀ professional look over. Thatāll go over well. Doing her best not to let her eyes lingerāshe knows he sees past the act, anywayāshe just shrugs as nonchalantly as possible.Ā āSequinsĀ no. But leather? Wellā¦ā If itās not clear by the look on her face, she approves of the idea.
"Iād be delighted. Seven Eleven is back this way, Rude Boy. Cāmon."
āā "All you need's a medium rare steak, some lettuce and you're all set." He pointed at himself, because, well,Ā horse radish. "Let's not talk about me being a sandwich, it sounds ghastly than anything." He shook his head, then smiling widely at the prospect of leather. "Reckon I'm just putting ideas into your head, yeah?"Ā
Ira laughed, "Well, alright, lady. After you."
"I sāpose yācould smell worse. Like, sulfur or somethinā." She grins at the reaction to her mentioning Twinkies, and shakes her head with a small laugh. "We can get you some Twinkies, sure." Seven Eleven was open at this hour, wasnātāoh. There goes the hideous shirt. No, sheās not staring like itās something sheās never seen before. Clearing her throat, she straightens herself and raises a brow. āAināt thatĀ my job? Takinā clothes off in front of people?ā Yeah, sheās still doing that. Why quit something youāre good at? āYāwant me to tip you now? I aināt got any Twinkies, but I think Iāve got a tenner burninā a hole in my back pocket.ā
āā "Used to." He reminded her, and something acrid.Ā Like blood, he recalled. Now, of course, he took note of the look she was giving him. "Well, not that I'm planning on taking my clothes off for a living--you think sequins and leather will work for me?" He asked, chuckling. Speaking of salary jobs--he'll have to look into that, again. Is hockey still an option?Ā
"... Or instead of tipping me, you can buy me Twinkies and a blueberry slurpee, how about that?"
"There is that option, yes." Sheād like to go on and say that she wants to be the one to set it on fire in the first place, but sheāll keep that to herself for now. "The ash I do smell, butĀ horse radish? Were yārollinā āround in wasabi while yāwere away?ā That shirt hurts to look at. Sheās actually trying really hard not to squint. āOr a school bus. Iām damn tempted to start callinā youĀ Twinkie now coz of that color.ā
āā "Well, Greed, he'd bring some take out over to my office, and now it's just stuck." Also, he likes horse radish, only he didn't expect he'd end up reeking it. Yet, at the mention of Twinkie, "Oh, I fucking miss those! I should stock up--I suppose I can take this shirt off." Which he did, shrugging it off and shaking his hair, leaving his last layer--an undershirt.Ā
"Cāmon Ira. We both know I aināt goinā nowhere butĀ down. Or⦠wherever Hell actually is.ā A lifetime of good deeds wouldnāt be enough to redeem her sins; thatās how she sees it.
"Found yāby scent first, actually. Thought I might be hallucinatinā or somethinā. Youāve got a smell thatās hard to forget." She pauses, then scrunches her nose. "Dun take that the wrong way. I aināt tryinā to say yāstink or anythinā. But that shirt is absolutely horrible, darlinā.ā
āā "Or you can watch the world burn, yeah?" A somewhat vicious cycle. But so does immortality. "Though I can't say this new shower gel's enough to cover the scent of ash and horse radish." Gazing down at his shirt, he laughed openly. "Still needing to buy some new stuff--I can now stand next to a yellow cab and blend in."
"Kinda makes me glad I have aĀ long time āfore I ever go to Hell.ā Sheās trying to be funny and lighten things up a bit. Maybe itāll make up for her uncalled for outbursts. After all, Ira has been a busy dude since the day they met. She has no right getting upset. āI knowĀ feelinās aināt exactly your thing, but if itās any sort of consolationā¦ā she looks elsewhere and relaxes her stance a bit. āā¦IĀ am happy to see you alive and well.ā
āā "I've a feeling it would take a while for you, if you even consider going someplace else, sweetheart." Vampires are finicky creatures, he's learnt so far.
"I'm surprised you found me out," he replied, laughing. "The canary yellow probably stood out."
"Yes darlinā, I remember youĀ have one.ā No, sheās not fighting a smirk. Not at all. Sheās angry and sheās gonna stay that way. Maybe. She does relax a little as heās explaining the situationāreally, he doesnāt actually have to. āYeah⦠thatās⦠thatās fair.ā And itĀ is. She knows what itās like to be yanked into work at the worst of times. āSorry. I just kinda figured yāwere gone for good, I guess. Bit of a shock to see you again. A pleasant one, but still startlinā all the same.ā
āā "Well, to be fair, I thought I'd end down there myself." Time flies quickly, but the absence of human contact can be slightly overbearing. He was so used to the scent and sights of Earth, the charred and decay andĀ sin were a different touch. That also spoke volumes--that was the longest desk job he's ever had.Ā
"And not be in this form, and sport pseudo broken wings and put people in endless misery due to their spite." He looked around them, picking up the familiar souls.
She wonāt actually hit him, despiteĀ really wanting to. Instead, she pulls herself up to her full height and folds her arms over her chest. āā¦dick. Yādun text. Yādun call. Yādun even give a girl a hint that yāaināt gonā be back for months. ā¦not that it matters, I sāpose, but I thought we were at leastĀ friends, yājerk.ā
āā "I do have--" and he stopped himself, maybe dick jokes aren't applicable yet. (Haha, Ira, you are so funny, he tells himself.) "Alright, a redo then." He bowed his head, "I got pulled in due to work, got stuck to my desk job, network reception was arsefucking annoying. But now I'm here, sort of."
She takes a minute, reaching out to give his arm a tapājust checking to be sure heās not a hallucinationāand thenā¦
āWhere in theĀ hell have you been?!ā
āā He flinched, taking a step back and gazing at Myra. "Yes, there. Hell, you know, my office? They sent me down there, back to my office. Loads of paperwork."
"ā¦did I lose my mind again?ā
āā "Do you need a mental tic tac?"
āā "Real talk--yellow isn't my color."
I'll have this kid pop up on Sunday.
Just, you know. CASUAL VISITATION.
