Some time later - Fashion District

[SFX: Zipper zipping] CROW: That was good. Thanks for coming, Iain. JAYSON: (muttering) Hah…coming. CROW: Babe. IAIN: Yeah, no, that was really good, thanks for having me.

CROW: Hey…Iain? You got a sec? IAIN: What's up, dude? CROW: I know you don't…owe us anything, I mean…we're just the married couple you fuck with sometimes. I just can't help but notice how distracted you were today. Is everything okay? IAIN: Everything…is fine, Crow.

CROW: Can I ask you something? …Is it Angelo? IAIN: …I…how'd you know. CROW: Well, I can guarantee you every homo in San Myshuno has met each other a minimum of once. And we all talk, y'know? Angelo comes to the bar too. He talks about you. IAIN: (gasp) What--what does he say?

[bastardtrait]

Humour and Hijinks Festival - Arts District

IAIN, aside: That…man is…green. Really green.

IAIN: … BLT: …

PUMPKIN SPICE: Hey! Earth to Benjie. The festival stuff is starting! BLT: (chuckles) Yeah, sorry Pumpkin, I was just distracted.

IAIN: Hey Crow! There sure are a lot of gay people in San My huh. CROW: Oh baby did you just notice? Oh my darling.

Iain gathers all his closest friends to tell them he's leaving the city. he rented out the entire lounge for just the handful of them. the love he had for these people was overflowing and he thanked God every day he found them.

transcript:

Uptown - Cyrenaica Sky Lounge

NAOMI: Copperdale? Really? That's a choice. TARYN: I knew a guy who moved to Copperdale. He moved out within two years. You know what he had to do for fun? Go to Brockville. Brockville, dude.

they say denial is a river in Egypt. not completely true. it is also a river in Sudan.

transcript:

CROW: Iain, I'm only telling you this 'cause I care about you, not 'cause I wanna start shit. But Iain, Angelo is not a good guy. IAIN: What--what do you mean? CROW: He doesn't think of you as a person, but as a warm body. He brags about how…what he does to you. In a really repulsive way. I'm not here to tell you how to live, bud, since we're all adults, but it put me off.

IAIN, aside: Crow…you don't know what Angelo goes through, what demons he fights. I don't want to be that guy, but I know him better than you. We--we've been friends since we were kids. Okay? CROW, aside: I know, but-- IAIN, aside: Angelo's a good guy. He deals with a lot.

CROW, aside: And are you not a good guy too? I just think you deserve better, Iain. IAIN: No. I mean--I have better. I have him. I don't know what--what he says about me, or if it's true, or--or what, but. I lost him once. I won't lose him again. CROW, aside: (quietly) Alright, buddy.

CROW, aside: Just. Make good decisions, Iain. You deserve to be happy. IAIN, aside: I am happy. Trust me, Crow.

[bastardtrait]

smh Iain look at you. not accepting the wisdom of old homos and for what. some man? …but at least he’s got a clear head about the whole thing more or less.

transcript:

CROW: There's my handsome li'l man! Iain, there's coffee on the pot if you want. IAIN: Thanks dude, I'm seriously gonna need it. This guy's tiring. CROW: Hah. I'd bet. I have some idea as a professional older brother.

IAIN: So should I say it or do you wanna? CROW: Say what? IAIN: That you were right and I was stupid for not believing you. About Angelo. CROW: Iain, come on. I'm not that petty. Love…makes you do a lot of crazy things. JAYSON: Nobody's perfect, Iain, but the important thing is you've moved on.

CROW: Well, let's not presume. IAIN, aside: Nah, Jayson is right. (sniff) Ya know, it's wild, I used to get so offended at the suggestion that Angelo didn't actually like me. But after getting confirmation, I've just been like (pfft) oh, okay. Guess I'll die. JAYSON: And that's the kind of fuck-him attitude your old friends support, brother.

JAYSON: You're doin' alright, Iain. You need anything, you just call us. IAIN: (small sigh) Thanks, Jay. Okay, say bye, Toby! Can you say bye to Uncle Jay? TOBY: (bbbpppffftt) JAYSON: (smiles) I love you too, little pal.

[bastardtrait]

oh what’s that? A TRIPLE crossover? would I dare to do something so maniacal? why in fact yes I will. Crow and Jayson are a spare couple from the 3rd generation of the Nova legacy, who did canonically live in san my soooo it’s kinda perfect.

transcript & slight sim spice under the cut:

Month 2, week 2 - The Crow's Perch Bar

CROW, from inside: You already know who he is…Iain Lucky! San My's latest crooner.

IAIN: (playing and singing) JAYSON: You got this, bud!

JAYSON: God, am I ever glad for Iain nights. CROW: (smirk) "Iain nights"? You mean Wednesdays, babe? JAYSON: No, I mean Iain nights, which are way better than Akira and Miko nights because those motherfuckers cannot sing. Iain, though? Baby Christ weeps. CROW: Someone's got a crush, eh? JAYSON: Well, it helps that he's a cutie, doesn't it?

Month 2, week 3

JAYSON: There's our favourite guy. Buy you a drink? IAIN: Sure, Jay, whatever you're having. CROW: He's having you, dear. (smirk) Or he'd like to, anyway. IAIN: Uh…aren't you guys married? JAYSON: Sure. And that's why we exclusively play together. But! Wow! Aren't we getting ahead of ourselves, husband mine…?

CROW: Iain…come here, bud. IAIN, distracted: …yeah.

JAYSON: Last chance to tap out. IAIN: No way… don't stop. JAYSON: Good boy.

Raven: suppose we’ll take her back out to the East coast to bury her in the family plot? whatever that town is called...Brindleton Bay?

Haruki: yeah, she’d like that. be back with her siblings and her parents again.

Raven: it’ll be nice, that’s for sure.

rest in peace, Musica. you had... *sniffs* a fat ass.

[bastardtrait]

we have gathered once again to the old Nova-Murasaki home because I got the notification that Musica died.

Raven: hey dad...

Haruki: aw, hey kids...you really didn’t have to come out all the way back...

Crow: on the contrary. Raven has been bugging us for months to come see you.

Raven: yeah, before mom died. now here we are.

Crow/Raven: (bickering)

Jackdaw: I just like to be included :)
