Rose Creek 4 Josh: So here we are... At your grave... Looks like you having a bone, Bill. (Laughs at my own joke)
*Billy just gives you a side glance*
*i giggle* so you really ok with this?
*he nods* nothing to do with them now.
Alllllright...... *Drops down and starts digging*
What? C'mon, that joke was perfect.
Well, Red and Cosmo could find them a good use.
(Helps you dig)
*Billy raises an eyebrow* and they are?
Our dogs. Dunno where they are now.
*digs till my fingers hit something wooden, the casket* so we can just.....pry it open?
*he nods again. Not very talkative it seems*
Aight...... *Takes my own knife out and cuts through the rotten wood* *we're welcomed by a grinning whitening skull*
Neat. You lookin' great Billy.
*he phantoms a smile*
Red is with Claire, Cosmo.... I dunno where Cosmo is... And that worries me.
(Sees a lil wooden box at Billy's leg, skelont Billy I must say.) And what we have here?
Pshh! Dont touch that! That my new little treasure!!
*gingerly picks the box and places it next to me. I open it and am greeted by old rusted knives, neatly placed* *the silver has turned black now but the engravings are still easy to make out*
*i breathe out in awe* wooooooow.......
*i look at Billy. He smiles a bit and gives me an encouraging nod* all yours.
Thank you..... they're so so beautiful.... I'll clean them up and have them back into shape in no time.
B: i don't doubt that.
*i smile at him warmly*
Why do I feel like you found your second love?
BECAUSE I DIIIIIIID🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
*Billy chuckles* i see they're in good hands.
*i flash an overexcited toothy smile* I COULD KISS YOU! They amazing!!!
(The strange feeling in my stomach is back and I look away scowling) I sEe ThEy'Re In GoOd HaNdS (I mumble to myself)
Now I regret telling her about the knives.
*having the cutest biggest dorkiest kid-on-xmas smile ever*
*Billy smiles at me too* i could teach you a few shots. Got my own set as it seems.
*and sure enough he still got a ghostly set of the same knives hanging from his semitransparent belt. They were such an integral part of him they stayed with him even in death... incredible*
Sure. I'd totally love that!
*completely oblivious to Josh's attitude change* you heard Josh??? He's gonna teach me!! Finally a guy to work with hehe.
Yeah, wohooo! He's gonna teach you how to throw kitchen knives~~~. So cool~~. (Didn't even bother to hide my lack of enthusiasm)
(Mumbles to myself as we follow you) Oh, hey Ash, darling. Billy is really good with knives, he can teach you... Fuck myself for suggesting that.
Hm? Whats gotten into him..... thought he'd be happier for me....oh well.... I'll talk to him later i guess....
*can hear you mumbling behind us but cant understand a word. What could the matter be?? Did i do something wrong? Is he mad that i rlly went with the digging? That could be it.... Billy was one of his friends after all....dammit im stupid. But i guessed if Billy was ok with it he'll be ok too*
*in silence we go back to the saloon*
(When we walk in we find everyone dancing in the middle of a crowd. Ghosts we're laughing and clapping at the rhythm of the music. Peter was dancing with a ghost... And they were able to touch each other. Reece was dancing with Claire; Red and Cosmo were just acting like dogs barking at the strangers and occasionally searching for food.)
*i scan the room taking in all the ppl having fun when i notice Pete twirling a pretty ghost girl around, while actually holding her hand* ooooooook? What tf did we miss???
*Goodnight makes his way through the crowd, not caring if he's bumping into others. He even bumps into Cosmo, legit bumps, doesn't go through. This is weird. He comes and greets us with his hat* It sure took you long! Did you even find anything?
Yup! *I proudly show him the box*
*he glances at Billy and they smile in agreement. Amazing how they can talk without words.....*
What did we miss? *Billy asks*
G: oh nothing much, just the clock finally striking 3. Been a while since i petted a dog hehe. *Right on cue Red strides towards us and let's Billy scratch behind his ear*
B: yeah.....been a while......
(Quirk an eyebrow) So... The clock strikes 3... You materialize? (Touch Billy and Stares at my hand trying to come with a logical explanation rather than is the wicked hour)
Well, if you excuse me.I would like to go dance with my wife. (I make way through the crowd, relieved to touch people rather than go through them.)
G, chuckles: yup that right boy. No idea how or why but why care at this point? Its nice touching the real world from time to time.
*i touch attentively Billy's arm since hes closer* this. Is. Incredible...... *Completely in awe* now you can teach me better!!
*Billy smiles faintly* sure. If Goody agrees to supervise......? *He eyes his partner who gives him a toothy grin and a nod* alright then let's get somewhere we can't hurt the others.
(Boils in anger... Not its not anger. It's something else but can't pin point what) STOP TOUCHING HIM!
(Groans and look away quirking my lips into a thin line)
They're dead. They won't care I a knife randomly stab them.
*billy deadpans* he was talking bout the living.
G: hey remember that place we arranged for you to show the locals some action? Lets go there. We can make some new dolls and try there.
Sure we could do that..... *What's the matter with him??*
They'll live too. They frigging gods.
The one where you couldn't pull the trigger? Make sure don't to freeze again, Mr Goodnight.
*if looks could kill Josh would drop dead right then. Thats how murderous Billy's eyes shine as he stares at him*
*Goody only scowls in annoyance* we are teaching her to stab not shoot. *He says coldly*
*i glance at Josh before we're finally out the door and into the night*
*takes us a while to set up the hay dolls and we start as soon as we're done. Most of the stuff Billy shows is pretty easy until he gets to the throwing. I suck at it and he comes over and helps position my arms cuz of course i was holding them all wrong* *with his tips and help my next throws are successful. Gradually we increase the speed. It'll take me a really long time to reach his level but im not completely incompetent either. Once im drenched in sweat and cursed out all the gods i can think of he calls quits*
B, pats me on the back: you're doing a great job! But that hair is obscuring your view. Let me braid it.
Um.........ok? Sure. And thanks for all this. Really wanted someone to know how to teach me this stuff.
*we sit on a hay ball, me between his long legs, srrly why tf is he called 'short'?!? He goes straight to braiding without uttering another word and i enjoy the silence. Next to us Goody is smoking a ghost cigar I cant smell thank goodness*
(I stare back at Billy with same death glare.)
Do I look like I give a fuck?
What the fuck is wrong with me? Billy only has eyes for Goodnight but I still can't help but get mad and — argh! What the fuck Faraday?!
(Seeing him so close to you all I can do is look anywhere other than the two of you.)
(But seeing you sitting on his legs ... I took out my pistols and shot the hay dolls until I finished all my bullets) Enjoy your acupuncture lessons, dear. Im out of here. (I walk away and back to... I better go and smoke a freaking tobacco cigar. There should be some in the store or in the ammo shop. They always had one.)
*confused and sad*Whats the matter with him.........?
*i try to turn my head but Billy keeps it still* you can ask him later.......aaaaaand done.
*i touch my new braid trying to feel the style. Its simple and compact. No hair strand will get astray*
* i get up* i think i should go see whats up...
G,flicks his cigar in the grass where it disappears: whats up is jealousy ma cherie. Can see it clear as day *he snickers*
Jealous? Of what?!?? He really wanna spend that much time with you two?
B: why not ask him? Let him tell you himself.
Alright......i will.... now to see where he went.
*i leave the two alone as they already started to ignore my existence, starring at each other. Hehhe bet they like eachother. Its pretty cute*
*starts searching the town*
(I found a cigarette box in the store but they were mostly damp and corroded by moths. At least one was in perfect condition. The owner very kindly gave it to me without question, along with an old bag of candy that I doubt is edible. I sat on the only bench outside the store. The wood creaked as I sat down.)
(Three buildings ahead I could hear the music and laughter from the Saloon. This whole place seemed alive once more. I pulled out my lighter and lit my cigarette. Puffing the smoke out of my nose and mouth.)
AHA! gotcha.......!! *I spot your outline in the dark and run towards you*
Hey......... *Sits next to you* what's the matter? You've been pretty off all night.....
(Exhales) Dunno... Are you done playing knives with Bill? Or or he's gonna braid your hair again? (I lean forward on my knees looking at the street.)
Well no. Why? Want to braid it too? Didn't know you could........ *A bit awkward cuz you're unwilling to talk.... but ill get it outta you eventually*
(I click my tongue and get up.) If you want but I don't promise to be as good as Billy.
Wha—what do you find interesting in him? He only knows how to throw chopsticks and his stupid knives. (I turn and lean on a beam. Puffing smoke once again. )
*i unbraid my hair* im sure itll be good.
*giggles* chopsticks.....well yeah thats a bit the point ya know? Been always looking for someone to help me with the knife skills. I can work on my own but could use some help. *I explain nonchalantly*
*as i watch you sulking like that something dawns upon me* Wait....are-are you......are you jealous? *Incredulous*
Well you have Owen or Reece. They're the experts with weapons.
Jealous? Well, I don't know he was so close to you and you didn't stutter or even blushed and sat on his lap like it was nothing. Of course I'm jealous! 2hat else do you want me to be?! Happy that my girlfriend is so close to another man? (I inhale and try to avoid looking in your direction.) For fuck sake, Billy is obviously in fucking love with Goodnight. The hell is wrong with me?!
Well i didn't care bc they're like.....idk dead!? Im sorry it upset you...... I actually didn't think much about it....now i feel dumb. Of course you wouldn't like me being this close to another as i wouldn't like you close to another girl either......
And that's what upset me more. I'm jealous of a fucking ghost for God's sake.
(Looks at your hair and Huffs) I wasn't serious with the braid thing. I don't know how to do that.
Welp......guess bun it is then *puts my hair up in a bun* tiny asians with knives and buns lmao. Can teach you tho.....its really easy.
So...um....are you feeling better now? *I glance at you carefully*
(I twist my lips and shake my shoulders) Yeaaa.. it doesn't sound like a bad idea ...
I just need a little time alone. And finish this cigarette. The last time I smoked one was ... I think the day before Bogue and his dogs showed up on that hill (Nonchalantly point at the hill behind me.)
Alright..... I'll let you be then..... *Rubs your back and kisses your cheek before leaving. I wanna go to the river, water calms me all the time*
(Vazquez laughed out of the room, Cosmo and Red behind him, ball in hand. Like Goodnight, he missed petting a dog.)
V: Go get it guys! (Vazquez threw the ball and Cosmo and Red ran after it. When he look to the side he spotted you out of the corner of his eye) Good evening, miss. (He tilted his hat)
Where is your lovely guero?
Oh! *Surprised at your sight* hello there. Hes in town having a smoke.
How are you? Having fun with the dogs?
V: Feeling more alive than in the past one hundred years. (He walked towards you, throwing the ball after Red came back) Well in the past they used to bark at me and I couldn't pet them. That was depressing.
What about? Heard youre the new owner of Billy's knives?
*i raise a surprised eyebrow* wait so this 3am thing only started recently or something? Or you meant that dogs didn't like you?
Hehhe yus!!! Their state is quite alright but they need a good scrubbing and possibly a sharpening.
V: Dogs are not fond of ghosts and they barely come here. Pinches cabrones. The only dogs I've been petting are coyotes and some wolves but they don't come here as often as before.
(He Whistles) Those knives... They really are to be feared. Make that clear to your lovely cowboy. If he ruins it. I'll find him and drag him by the feet at night.
*chuckles* great another guy who wants to kill Josh is he messes up. Think i can't do it myself? *Challenging* Billy did say i got them skills.
V: well that's what friends are for, right? Make sure you don't mess up with your lady. Especially this lady. (Vázquez frowns and looks into the distance where the dogs ran) That now is in possession of the deadliest weapons a woman can wield in the old west. One of my exes almost stabbed me in my sleep because I flirted with a dancer.
(The dogs come back, Red holding a twig and Cosmo the ball. He throws the ball and plays tug with Red.)
Hijo de tu chingada madre, tienes fuerzas. (He takes off the twig from Red's jaws and throws it too) Orale, cabron!
*smirks* we're not useless towels. If y'all want us to spend most time in the kitchens might as well make ourselves handy with some knifes.
God i think Josh could've stabbed Billy if he were alive rn........
V: Didn't say you were. (He smirks and shrugged his shoulders)
(Chuckles) Nah, that man is like a dog. My mom used to say, perro que ladra no muerde (Dog that barks doesn't bite) But why Billy?
*twirls my knife in the air mindlessly*
Bc he got jealous apparently...... Jealous that i was ok with him touching me and stuff. But like he only did my hair and helped me with my throwing. And is also dead. And i think Goody likes him.
V: (Laughs) Joshua Faraday jealous of Billy? (He claps as he laughs) Ay dios mio!
Nah, they're just close friends. Really close friends.
*giggles* yup. Jealous of a ghost. But yeah I could've sat next to not on him......but meh. I do that when i like ppl and hes pretty cool and a nice teacher.
Ya sure? Seemed like more idk.... And Billy barely smiled at ppl besides when he gave me the knives and with Goody. But oh well, you know them best.
V: (Keeps laughing and whispers) We better stop talking then. Don't want your boy to get jealous again. (Looks behind to where Josh is.) I think he saw us.
Well, ask Sam, he knows them better... Only Goody.
Hey what time is it?
*sighs* don't think so.....
Alright I'll try.
Hmmmm lemme check *takes out phone and looks at the time* its almoooooost.......... 6am.
V: wanna go back to the saloon? We only have one more hour of this.
(Turns at Josh direction) Guero, vente pa' acá (come here). The party isn't over.
Owwwww *really sad* just one?! But it was so much fun......
Alright let's go back....
V: Sorry but that's how it is. Don't know how to explain it but... I'm actually surprised we could do this so long. Usually it only last from 3 am tl 4 am. Like some kind of gold hour.
(I jog towards you and stand next to Vázquez)
Well it was nice while it lasted....
*eyes lit up when you get here* hey! How are you now?
Can I punch Vázquez? (I smile innocently)
V: And now what did I do?
Me: Nothing, just need to let out some steam....i can still touch you, right? (Lightly punch him on the shoulder)
Yup can still punch for an hour.*giggles*
(I kick the doors open and spot you) Hey, partners! (My old southern accent is noticeable now. I howl a laugh a walk forward, almost stumbling with my on feet) You have to try this!
And before you ask, yes, I'm slightly drunk but I won a contest and now I'm the rightful owner of that house over there.
Are you coming inside? Because we're having so much fun. Did you know Horne once killed a bear with his bare hands? (I put my arms around Vasquez and Josh shoulders and guide them to the saloon)
Hahhaahah found more whiskey? Lead the way!
*i trail behind you 3*
Whiskey, Ron, tequila! All the drinks you can name!
This way my friends. To the adventure! (Kicks the door open again. The saloon is more alive than ever. People talking and laughing at the several tables gathered around the place. More people were dancing;other were playing darts and poker and some, without fear were playing Five Finger Filler)
This looks like a small Vegas omg. Imma go fetch a drink cya.
*goes straight for the bar and orders a nice whiskey. Got some coke upstairs which ill mix it with*
Oh hello old friend (I find Owen and Reece playing poker and fetch a chair and sit.)
Gimme my coins. You're gonna watch the famous Joshua Faraday at his natural habitat.
V: Aaaand we lost him. Seriously, the famous Joshua Faraday. If I remember correctly I won last time. Throw the cards, amigo.
Me: Nah, nah, you didn't won... We had to finish the game because Brone and his monkeys were coming.
V: Accept it. I won and you still owe me money, guero.
*gets my drink, goes up, mixes it then comes back looking for you. I find you playing*
God finally imma see you play. You said you're oh so good with them but never really showed much. *I say smirking as i lean on you to look at your cards*
Blow a kiss, babe. They say it brings good luck. But not like I need it. Luck is always by my side.
Turn the cards, Lindsay. And I rise my initial bet to... Uhm, I'm gonna be generous and put 5 more. Don't want to scare all you pussy cats.
(I push two coins to the center of the table and Lindsay turns the cards. For now I only have a pair of six of hearts.)
Lindsay you bastard, you have a shitty hand.
V: I raise it to ten. (I look at Vázquez in challenge)
I make it 15. (The rest check and Lindsay turns the fourth card. Not the one I need it. But if I scared the guys enough, this round could be mine, again.)
Twenty more, gentlemen! C'mon, don't retreat were almost over! And Lindsay sorry to tell you this but you need to check that hand. Is full of shit.
*i kiss your cheek then watch the game intently occasionally sipping from my drink*
(Half of the guys retreated while Vazquez and Reece raised the bet. I narrowed my eyes at them and gave them a small smirk) Would you be so kind to pass me my money? (Lindsay flipped the last card. Three pairs.) Show me what you have, gentlemen.
(Laughing, I wait for the others to turn their cards over. Vazquez had a pair, two other guys had nothing, and Reece.)
What do you have, Reece?
R: Why don't you show me first ...
Since you insist. (I slowly reveal my cards.) Three pairs of six, nines and ... Pair of aces.
(Amused, Reece showed his cards. Two pair of nines and two.)
Ha ha! Come daddy (I grab my money with a mischievous glint in my eyes)
*i grab your head from the side and kiss your temple* so you weren't lying after all. You're really good.
*i give you my glass to sip* you need to teach me sometime.
(I look up at you) Nah because If one day I play against you I may lose. (I wink an eye at you before returning to the game, taking a quick sip from your glass and sighs.)
Wooow, ready for next round!
(Almost fifteen rounds later the saloon is almost empty with the exception of us and my friends. Claire is on Owen's lap. A half empty bottle of tequila next to him.)
(Peter is totally wasted on a chair, head tilting to the side and drooling. He only wakes up when he nods and looked around frowning only to go back to sleep. Reece, Goodnight, Red Harvest, Owen, you and me kept playing with the rest as our audience. So far I'm wining with Goodnight in second place and Reece not far behind. Vázquez had lost all his coins somewhe around the 8th or 11th round and now was close to join Pete to the dreamland.)
(Horne occasionally asked questions at Owen and Claire about the baby threw here and there some advices about marriage and God. The man was so devotee.)
(Yawning
* i got a second glass at like. ..... round 5? Idk im too drowsy. I emptied the second one just a short while ago. Im leaning on your back barely seeing the cards through falling eyelids*
*your yawn reaches me and i mimick the action, leaving my body with less energy then before. I manage to get a chair and now i switched to leaning on your shoulder watching you play*
(Rubbing my eyes and looking at Claire I asked her silently if she's tired in one of those silent conversations. We smile at each other's. Horne is no longer throwing questions but rather talking about religion and its a subject I would rather avoid for the rest of my life)
Nice game guys but (Yawns) It's nearly 8 am and, dunno about ghosts but humans need to rest.
Someone take Peter to his bed.
(Me and Claire groggily make our way to our tent and sleeping bags and fell asleep within seconds.
You finishing the game anytime soon or you coming later? *I stand up and wanna go up*
(Yawning and rubbing my eyes) I don't know... How long are you gonna stay? (I ask the guys. I'm so tired but didn't want to say goodbye to my friends once again.)
G: take rest boy. We need no sleep but you do still. We'll see eachother again, we ain't leaving anywhere. But i think we're starting to fade now..... *He looks sadly over at Billy who's left leg has been fading more and more for the past hour*
(I stared at Goodnight with a distant look and sadness.)
I'll stay until you leave. I still have (more yawning) energy for a few rounds. Go ahead, make your bets. (My voice cracked a little)
G: hey smile Faraday. We're back every night. But this night........this one sure was different im tellin' ya. Never been able to touch for so long....... *Small smile creeps on his face*
(I smile at his remark but the tears still form in my eyes. I hold them back) Ye, it was... Memorable.
It was good to see a you guys. (I bit my tongue and wipe the tears) So, uhm, we were busy with you know. (I shuffle the cards and give them 5 to each. Vázquez it's translucent now. Same with Billy, Red, Jack and the others.)
*yall playing again till one by one they drop the cards and disapear*
Hey......*i say softly putting a gentle hand on your shoulder*
(I stare at the table and smile happy and sad at the same time) You know... I didn't know I needed closure until now.
(I look down to the side, lips quivering.)
(Sighs) Let's go to bed. It's been a long night.
Yeah....lets go.....
*i take your hand and we go upstairs to our room. I hug you exceptionally tight*
(Sniffs) Thanks, babe. I love you. (I kiss your forehead and melt into your arms. Doesn't take us long to fall asleep.)
(We slept until past noon. Claire's morning sickness woke me up and I started making breakfast. Country eggs, sausages, and fried beans.)
(Peter was still unconscious on the same chair. He would surely wake up with a hangover. I had never seen him drink so much but it was fun.)
(When breakfast is ready I go up and knock on his door) Hey, loving birds! Come down, breakfast is ready or Claire will eat yours.
*god my everything aches and burns and my mind is hazy. Trying to get to the door i fall off the bed* Ouch.... *I grunt softly. My throat is so dry and god do i need to go for a nature call*
*stumbling on my own feet i reach the door and open it. My hairs a mess, lose strands from the bun cover my face. My eyes are still half closed and got dry drool on the corner of my mouth*
*i use the door to stay balanced* hi......
(I chuckle at your state.) Fresh like lettuce, uh? Breakfast is waiting for you downstairs.
How long did you stay up after I went to sleep?
Fresh ma ass..... Ima zombie....*rubs my eyes* yay food..... *Stomach growls a bit but I don't even acknowledge it*
Ehm? Oh...um.....idk an hour? No idea... *I see you double from tiredness* can i get 5more min? Pls?
Tell me when you feel the sudden urge to eat my brain to lock you here.
(Sighs, smiling) Five but no more. After breakfast were picking our stuff and going back to the car. Reece is calling a crane right now. (I take a few steps away from the door) Want coffee or juice?
Ha ha ha.... *Totally not amused* very funny. Dont worry, i got nothing to eat there *points at your head*
Ok..... cooffeeeeee.... *The word trails as i yawn*
Look how much I'm laughing. At least I have more than the cowboy on the bed.
(I nod and go back downstairs to prepare the coffee and eat my breakfast. Reece came to me to tell the crane will be there in two hours. Perfect time to gather our stuff and walk back to the car with full bellies
*goes back to the bed* *nudges Josh*
Hey.....wake up..... Josh. Breakfast ready.... We need to get ready to leave too.....
(Grunts and shift)
Cmonnnnnnn........ Wake up.......
*pokes you in the back*
*squishes your cheeks together* squishy
(Keeps grunting and pouts, refusing to open my eyes. Pillow feels like a cloud) Hour?
Uhhhhhhhh........ *My voice sounds like a zombies as i search for my phone. It fell under the bed last night apparently*
Itssssss...... 2pm. Wow......
(Voice hoarse) Uuugh... 2pm... New record. (I open my eyes and look at the ceiling. My head is in a trance.)
We can't stay until 4, right?
Foods ready and *yawns* and Reece's calling a troock-.... track-... TRUCK to ge the car outta here.....
*sits on the margin of the bed next to you* *head bobbing like a chickens cuz it wanna hit the pillows*
(Let out a long groan) Alright... Why you didn't say food earlier? (I push myself up and rub my eyes yawning)
Uhhhhh *dumb look of tiredness* forgot...
So we going?
(I stretch my arms and leans on your back.) Yeaaa... Not hungry but I will. Can you carry me?
😕i can barely carry myself.....
Then I'll carry you... if you help me move my legs.
Deal.
*kisses your forehead then drags you onto the floor*
Ooouch...that hurt.
(I stand up and stretch again and crack my neck) I think we should pick our things first the breakfast, what you say?
I need coffee before i murder everyone..... Im so fucking tired.... And we don't have much to pack anyway
Everyone but me, right?
Yeah but don't want to come back here after. (I go to my bag and grap clean clothes and changed quickly. I intentionally throw you my shirt in the face and chuckles) Hope my smell wakes you up.
I hope you know it mine now right? *I clutch it and run out with it giggling*
*i get downstairs to everyone else* hullo people! Where ma coffee?!
(Amused) No~, it's not— hey! Stop that thieve!
(Shakiing my head, I go downstairs. Stomach growling at the smell)
*i duck behind Reece using the shirt to 'hide' myself* shhhh don't tell him im here🤫
*stiffen a laugh*
(Jumps in surprise and smiles slightly raising an eyebrow) Lovers (I try to move smoothly, Josh looks around for you and I just act naturally feeling you shift behind me)
*i finally manage to sneak behind the bar where i let a breath out and giggle with my mouth covered by the shirt*
(More than sure I saw you come downstairs and heard you asking for your coffee.) Where's s Ash?
(Owen gives me my plate.)
*can barely contain my laughter* *red comes over to me asking for pets*
*whispers* not now! Shoo!
Reece ate her.
*i snort a laugh that gets overpowered by Red's bark. He doesn't like it when i don't pet him*
SHHHHHH!!!!!! *whispers harshly* bad boy! Shut up!
(Curious a peek my head and smiles) And there she is. Thank you, Red. Who's a good boy.
*squeals*
NOOOoooooooo~~ you weren't supposed to find me......bad boy Red! *Pouts*
Hey, he's a very good boy (Jumps over the bar and kneels next to Red) Good job, boy. Don't listen to her. She's bad for hiding of her boyfriend.
*i stick my tongue out at you* blegh!
*clutches shirt more and stares at you like an angry kid*
Aaaw are you angry? (Baby voice) (Squish your cheeks and makes funny faces to make you laugh) My baby is angry or hungry?
*hides my smile with a pout*
*makes a biting motion* both.
(Chuckles and continue to use the baby voice) C'mon, Ash y, love, darling, sunshine... Smileee~ I know you want to.
Owen! The beast is hungry! Give me food for the beast!
*pushes you to the ground* asshat. Im the QUEEN of beasts! *Laughs*
(Hisses) Shhhhhh. Would you stop screaming? My head is all wobbly. (Mumbles to my self) This is why I hate getting drunk.
If I die... Don't let Rocket take my ship and Owen, you can have my blasters.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Honey. Take some.
You'll survive. Don't get all drama.
And beast, your breakfast is getting cold.
*jumps over the counter effortlessly and gets to the table and starts eating* mhmmmhh.... Delicoois *mouth full*
Eat fast then go for your stuff. (I say as I put my plate on a bag full of dirty dishes next to my stuff and Claire's.)
(Claire sends me a look and nudges my side. Frowning I shake my hands in a question manner until I remember our conversation from earlier when everyone was still sleeping but us.)
It can wait (I tilt my head to the side, lips forming a thin line.)
(We ignore everyone else with our silent conversation)
*munches faster* ay ay captin *mouth full*
*i finish in 5min then run to get my bag*
(I send Owen an urgent look after you left.) Do it!
(But he's refusing like a five year old. In moments like these is when I feel like his mom more than his wife.)
(Two people can plays this game) (From stern to the biggest smile ever I turn to Josh.)
Josh... (Owen sends me an infuriating look but I ignore it.) Owen would like to check the gun shop, can you show him the place before leaving?
(Awkward I nod while I finish my food.) Sure tho, I checked it yesterday with Ash but it's almost wasted. Not much too see.
*comes downstairs with my and Josh's bags* k im ready to go
Go, now! (I send Owen one last urgent glare and he stands up, guiding Josh outside.)
(Turns to you) Let's help Peter pack his stuff.
