“ oh , my god , totally . huge . it’s gonna be so fun . ” she grins back at her , smile wide as she maintains a sort of proud , confident expression ( big lie ! she couldn’t be more excited ! PLAY IT COOL , WHEELER ! ) . “ this is , like , THE party , barb . we’re gonna be so cool after this . ”
cool , a social status that you’d yet to obtain - one that nancy seemed so sure of. something that you still couldn’t seem to imagine. in what world did it seem normal to walk down hallways with nancy and the cool crowd? any thought alone seemed more like another teen drama film playing circles in your head. eyes roll behind framed glasses, faking a smile. “ the coolest, no doubt! ” play along just a little bit longer, play along the best you can. halloween was a night for masks and costumes - you too could hide insecurities behind the false promises of a costume!
“ think steve will be there? maybe that would be your chance! ” her chance. you could muster support for best friend, knowing well that perhaps you could be left behind, sinking like a stone in a body of water. barb holland, cool girl? pipe dream.
we’re gonna be so cool after this . so cool cool is dead at the bottom of a swimming pool.
NERVES BUBBLE , STOMACH TIGHT ; still you curve a smile, still you nudge and laugh - it’s halloween. a night of fun. “ do you think there will be a lot of people there? ”

i remember the night of my 21st birthday.
that was the first time i died.
(name)? hello, (name), wake up sunshine.
whats the matter, you pussy? you get one little baby tap from a nightclub bouncer and you go to sleep on me?
i already told you, he don’t look so good.
(name)’s gonna rip my nuts off.
oh man. man, we screwed the pooch on this one, (name).
you know what (name) is like. you don’t collect, best not come home.
maybe he’ll be nice, because it’s (name)’s birthday.
the guys a piranha, (name), he wouldn’t know ‘nice’ if it smacked him upside the head with a 50 lb sledgehammer.
we gotta get a plan.
i mean, (name) was adamant, right?
maybe. but we gotta get there, first.
hold onto your lunch!
hahahah, christ, (name), you’re gonna kill us!
i told you they were coming. i heard the sirens. didn’t i say i heard the sirens?
you hear sirens in your sleep, (name).
two jobs in one night, like we’re slaves or something.
c’mon, load up and help me out!
take your time! don’t worry about us getting our heaves BLOWN off!
hoo hoo, they got new uniforms! did you see those new uniforms they got? pretty sharp!
you wanna drive straight, i can’t get a bead!
i am driving straight. you shoot straight!
waste the guy on the left, i’ve got the one trailing!
what the fuck is this? they knew we were coming! i say ambush! am-fucking-bush!
oh god .. it hurts!
hey, i’m dying over here!
jesus. i wouldn’t wanna do that again.
these pants cost me 400 bucks over at sals. now they got blood stains all over them.
some fuckin’ 21st birthday for you, huh? here. got you a present.
now this looks real bad. real bad. go find out whats going on, and get the hell out of here.
that’s like asking a goddamned shark to share its dinner.
you ever got that loan you applied for?
how can he still be standing?
you know, you been a pain in my ass since the day i met you.
he’s just a parasite. wants to bleed me dry.
i saw him! he came out of the window! down there – he’s going towards the cemetery!
where is he? i don’t see him no more.
darkness will fall.
hey, don’t shoot me, son.
i live here. smells like satans bunghole, but it beats freezing to death.
yeah, nice place, angel statue and everything.
there’s a gate at the north end. they got a lock on it, though.
through you, i will display my power. through you, i am born.
you are nothing but my puppet.
i’ve heard people complain that life is unpredictable.
what happened to me today, thats why i need you, (name).
you’re the only one i can count on.
he put his boys out to look for you.
i steer clear of that little rat like he had the bubonic plague. what the hell did you do?
money was involved. i was unconscious at the time.
it aint fair, man. that asshole wont let me play my harmonica spot unless i give him a couple hundred bucks.
big guy, he’s always hanging here, goes by the name of (name).
you just gotta know how to persuade a guy. wait here.
i never would say this to no one, but you’ve got a good heart.
i wouldn’t put much stock into crack-pot theories like that.
stay in the shadows, (name).
happy birthday, rat face.
are you okay, babe? you’re being kinda quiet.
i’ve got a real problem, (name).
(name) isn’t a teddybear. he’s a fucking psychopath, and he’s gonna kill me.
kill you? what are you talking about? what exactly do you do for (name) anyway?
i’m .. i’m a contract killer. i, uh, kill people, for (name). i meant to tell you. i just didn’t know how.
what? are you nuts? you are nuts. this is just like you.
lets take one day off from ‘fucked up.’
lets just sit here for a while. okay?
are you cold, (name)? god, it’s freezing in here.
i heard about what happened tonight. i don’t need to point out to you that this is a bad situation.
this has been one messy afternoon.
you get yourself over here, but tread lightly.
i’m about to get my ass handed to me by a very nasty scumbag.
i do this only for you because of who your father was.
make sure no one sees you. i’ll leave the backdoor entrance to the kitchen open.
ah! you got the wrong guy! please! stop!
you turned out to be a real motherfucker, (name).
(name) knows everyone’s business, but what keeps him alive is that he never, ever chooses a side.
too bad there’s a war coming.
i heard you coming from a block away. those expensive italian shoes make you sound like a fuckin’, bull-elephant.
fuckin’ cops, all i need now, huh?
always, always, they gotta call me when i’m eatin’ dinner.
good enough. what happened to you tonight?
i wish the hell i knew, (name). i don’t know.
next thing i know, i’ve got the 5th italian cavalry riding my ass.
you know me, i never choose sides. whatever the problem is, its up to you and (name) to solve it.
i wouldn’t put it past him to throw (name) on your ass.
if i were the kind of man to be involved in things like this, i’d take down (name), and pull all his merchandise out of the building. but i’m not, see?
ah, fuck. the cops. this is why i don’t get involved. get back inside.
i got too many fucking people asking him questions.
and now i’ve got a lot of cleaning up to do. all because you don’t know how to play dead!
but you’re gonna be in the ground, (name). sooner or later. it makes no difference to me.
i used to come to these piers pretty often. most of the time it was to fit some poor asshole with a pair of concrete boots.. people don’t swim so good wearing boots.
the best way to (name)’s heart is through his ribcage with a meat cleaver.
one clean shot and he’s dead!
i guess it would depend on the moose.
what say you slip me a couple of bucks, hey? i gotta take a train.
yeah, nice try. you tell him.
well. (name) took the evening off. i’m the new guy.
this human is evil.
lets kill a commie!
they burn, (name). all the little ones. such delicate torture of the body and soul.
its kinda like being rescued from a shark attack by a grizzly bear.
there was no warning. we only heard the sound of gunfire.
that was our home, (name).
i don’t know what to do or feel about it. all i know is that it’s evil.
it’s a terrible thing, sweetie. it’s a terrible thing.
they say you can still hear the cries of the dead and the dying as you sleep.
you are going straight to hell, you know that, mister?
he had this bad habit of killing the wrong people all the time.
(name) threw him under the train down there.
i wouldn’t hang out around here if i was you, pal. i mean, there is somethin’ that just ain’t right about this place.
human flesh.. festers.
when you kill for a living, life’s only precious when you’re staring down the barrel of a gun – or someone you care about is.
(name) can have my life, my possessions, anything i own. anything, except you. anything!
remembering something, (name)?
finish your soup, (name), be thankful.
did you feel that? it got so cold, all of a sudden.
this will be a night to remember.
too late, (name), love dies.
learn that you are my puppet! now watch this.
fuck you! why are you doing this!
be still and watch!
okay .. please don’t kill me.
your flesh is mine. your will is mine.
whats the matter? don’t know your ass from your elbow with all that demon shit?
you see a happy ending here? you figure you got something to bargain with me?
we hurt you, you hurt us, like some fuckin’ game we’re playing here.
she’s mine!
and when blood takes from blood, someone always pays. so now, i take from you.
(name), this is not your fault.
awww, what did they do to (name)?
she was a burden. this is freedom.
where are you going?
no, (name), this is not your time.
no! cannot! must not!
we shall spend eternity together.
you wronged me, (name). you betrayed my gift.
you should not be here.
i would like to do some mischief!
i think i got it.
hell has no form. it bends to my whim.
this is my dream.. for you.
the sun grows ever darker.
the flame of life shall be put into shadow.
all men are cattle.
you’re giving away our position, you idiot!
you’re with that other yank, aren’t you?
bit of a sticky wicket, ey?
can’t tell you much. need to know basis.
i’ve seen things down there that would make grown men cry.
maybe this place isn’t a place at all.
i mean, i’m supposed to be dead.
i think i’m in hell.
go back, or be lost forever. worse than hell! nothing can come of this. turn away!
nothing for you here!
its a lie, (name).
i, on that familiar hill, saw with uncomprehending eyes a hundred sunsets spill their fresh and sanguine sacrifice.
i know there are a lot of things you’re not going to understand, but you have to trust me.
(name) is a living thing. it’s some kind of a creature, old as time.
it needs a host, i guess.
i messed up, (name), i brought it into the family. i didn’t realize it would do this to us.
everything happened here, (name), this is where it all began.
how do i stop this? and how do i get out?
listen. there might be a way to control it.
promise me that you’ll go find them.
it’ll lie to protect itself. just keep going, don’t look back.
go no further, (name).
anyone who says the subway is dangerous never sat in the back of a yellow cab.. going the wrong way.. at ninety miles an hour.. through the midtown tunnel.. with a guy who can’t speak a lick of english.
violence is the answer.

@oncebully gets a thing.
“ DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU’RE DOING? ” tone casts judgement that mirrors that of narrowed eyes behind glass frames. an air of protection for your own best friend was something that you carried always, a duty that was not taken lightly. shoulders squared, head titled - you’ve got yourself trained on him as if he were prey caught in a trap.
“ i heard about the last girl you dated. i’d hope that you’re not just stringing nanc’ along. ”
plotting call.
