         ”It took the strip club two weeks to realize that          I was only sixteen at the time. I was so bloody          good at it that they almost didn’t fire me. You          want to end up somewhere more strange than          Amsterdam? We’d have to end up in Los Angeles,          or Iceland, or Zimbabwe.”

                  She scoffed, rolling her eyes.

         ”Impress guys? As if your little stories aren’t to          impress girls. ‘Oh, I got hit by a bus, fucked a          lot of girls, did drugs. And you’re fit as fuck!’ I’m          almost impressed by all that.”

[misterstonem]

          "Fuckin' christ, sixteen? Get anybody arrested for             that   shit?   Iceland'd   be   fun.  LA's  a  bit  far,             probably sober up before the time we got there,             'less  we  kept  drinkin'  on  the  plane,  I  guess.             Definitely  thinkin'  Iceland's  our  best  bet if we             want to beat Amsterdam,"

               He laughs.

          "I  wouldn't  say  it  wasn't  to impress you. How            else  was I supposed to stand out when you get            you to notice me if there's all these guys who're            tryin'  to  get  your  attention, t oo. I was hit by a            bus,  though.  I'll  ring  her if you'd like. It fucked            her up a lot. She watched it happen,"

          "--you alright there, mate?"

[misterstonem]

the-stonem started following you

[maxxie-olie]

“Mhm. I wish nothing. I just take what I can get. Which happens to be a satisfying amount. I’m the same me I’ve always been. Equal boring and all as ever. Maybe you just never paid enough attention; wouldn’t put that passed you.”

[misterstonem]

          "Careful there. Beginnin' to sound like you're             whorin'  yourself  out.  Hope  I'm not gonna             see    you    workin'    the    street    corner,"

               A pause.

          "--yeah.  Wasn't  really  good   'bout  payin'             attention to anyone but myself. Still not,             but least I can admit it now,"

[xspliff]

              She simply rolls her eyes, pursing her lips               and upping on her toes to give him a kiss               on the cheek.

"Nice to see you too, Ton.   Actin’ like a twat bright and   early this mornin’, yeah?”

[misterstonem]

               A laugh escapes his lips, shaking his head slightly.                Lips press tightly together, causing the signature                smirk to linger.

          "'N disappoint you?  Never.  C'mon,            admit it. Be a lot more borin' if you            had some normal piece of crap for            a brother, you'd go insane,"

[maxxie-olie]

"Not then; so you admit you have been though. That’s some success on my part. Too boring for you, and too extreme for me. I don’t think I could put up with you.”

[misterstonem]

          "Not for you. You wish it was for you, you            stupid  twat.  'N I don't know. You're the            one datin' twins. Maybe you wouldn't be            too   boring  for  me  now.  Not  that  I'm            interested,"

[misterstonem]

+xspliff

          "Well, if it isn't Miss Stonem. Back after a long night             out, then? Long as you don't get kidnapped. Again."

[maxxie-olie]

"Mates don’t offer other mates blowjobs; especially straight mates. I mean, you don’t see Anwar or Chris going down on me… But whatever. Everyone is allow- ed that curiosity phase. Can’t you admit to that, at least? I just don’t see how your mind works.”

[misterstonem]

          "Anwar doesn't count. He's got those days where            he  decides  he's   actually  religious. Not curious,            though.  Not  then.  I'd  try  anythin'  once, but if I            wanted  to  go  full on gay, I wouldn't choose one            of  my  best  mates.  Too cliche. Next thing you'd            know  we'd  be  fallin' in love 'n livin' happily ever            after. Too borin' for me,"

[theburntsouffle]

                  “You sound like a fucking car crash, Tony Stonem.                   I think I’d be considered boring compared to what                   you’ve told me. Never been hit by a bus, never done                   drugs. However, I have fucked a lot of boys. I was                   also a stripper for two weeks. Never told anyone that                   before, but it’s the most interesting thing. I once got                   incredibly drunk, woke up in Amsterdam. Maybe I’ll                   wake up somewhere closer tomorrow.”

[misterstonem]

          "Don't recommend the bus bit. Wasn't the best            of times. A stripper for two weeks, though? Bit            odd  that  it  was for only two weeks. Why only            two  weeks?  Figured  that'd  be  fun. Too bad            there's   not   much   in   the  market  for  male            strippers.  Nah-- think we should get drunk 'n            find   ourselves   somewhere   more   strange.            Make  a  better  story, if we can.  Rather be in            one of these stories you ramble off to impress            guys,"

[maxxie-olie]

"Yeah, trying. Because what you did definitely didn’t count as success. Ouch. And I dunno. I don’t really waste my time thinking about it. Most blokes, when they wanna try sucking my dick, are feelin’ a bit homosexual in the moment.”

[misterstonem]

          "Oi, not my fault someone didn't want to. Seems             to  like  bringin'  it  up  enough times, though. I              wasn't  feelin'  homosexual.  I was feelin' like a             mate--  not  like I wanted to mate. Bit different             in  my  mind. Next time I feel like bein' a mate,             guess I'll leave you high 'n dry,"

[theburntsouffle]

          “Lilith. Fearless, calm, not very drunk at all,           unfortunately. Handsome boys sit next to           me often. Blah, blah, blah, more boring yet           witty things about me. Buy me a drink.”

[misterstonem]

               He laughs, but leans over to motion to the bartender,                quickly ordering a martini. 

          "How unfortunate. Thought I'd manage to be lucky            'n stand out from the crowd. Alright. Gotta not be            a  borin'  normal  bloke, then. Sounds 'bout right.            Alright. Name's Tony Stonem. Got hit by a bus as            a  teenager.  Fucked  a lot  of  girls.  Done a lot of            drugs, 'n your fit as fuck,"            

[maxxie-olie]

"Don’t act so surprised. You went gay for me, remember. I’m kind of the go-to guy when blokes are feeling a bit.. gay. Totally my title. I don’t know if it’s a good thing, or curse.”

[misterstonem]

          "'N you love to remind me of that, don't            you?  I  wasn't  feelin'  a  bit gay, I was            tryin' to blow a friend in need.  A favor,            really.  Think  if  I was feelin' gay I'd be            that obvious, Maxxie?"

[maxxie-olie]

"It’s not playing if it’s not serious, Tone. Guys don’t really do serious. Do they? I’m waiting for that. But ‘til then— twins.”

[misterstonem]

          "'N  they're  both gay for you? Sounds            like a dream come true. Can't say I've            even  had  twins. A twin, sure. But not            both. Bit jealous,"

[theburntsouffle]

           ”You know what? I think I’ll probably just go            for some sort of martini. That sort of thing can’t            be too expensive, can it? Easy on your wallet.”

[misterstonem]

          "Alright, Ms. Martini. Order whatever you            want,   but   you've   gotta  tell  me  your            name. Name's Tony.  As I said, fearless.            Calm.  Tiny  bit  drunk. More sayin' it for            myself.  Not  every  day  a  cute  girl sits            next to me," 

                                                       What a lie.

[maxxie-olie]

"Don’t you know? I’m a total pacifist now. Unless provoked, of course. And sounds like trouble follows you; who woulda gues- sed? Nothing too out of the ordinary around here. A pair of hot twins moved in. Pretty sure they’re both for my team. So there’s that, I guess.”

[misterstonem]

          "Seems  like  I'm  in  luck,  then. Pretty            sure everyone else would probably kill            me.  Twins,  though?  Sounds like I've            rubbed  off  a  bit  more  on you than I            thought. Gettin' to be a bit of a player,            are you, Maxxie?"

[theburntsouffle]

          “I don’t think you’d be too happy if I ordered           the most expensive drink on the menu.’Cause           that’s what I’ll do.”

[misterstonem]

               A pause.

          "--long as you get one, then. Better be             one hell of a drink,"

[maxxie-olie]

"You, afraid? Alright. And de- pends. Where’ve you been?”

[misterstonem]

          "Oh, shut up.  Long as you don't punch            me. Been on a bit of a holiday, I guess.            Lots of drugs, lots of girls. Usual shit in            a  different  place,  I guess.  Been up to            anythin' exciting?"
