Day 019 ⇒ A talent of yours

[scaredtobreak]

I'm spectacular at fucking things up, trust me.

Beyond that, I'm fucking awesome at music.  You won't find many drummers around here that can beat the drums like I can and I'm pretty good at playing the piano too.  Plus, this might surprise people, but I'm a good dancer.  I've been training in dance from a very young age, pretty much since I could walk actually.  Also, I can drink most anyone under the table and I'm fucking fantastic in bed. 

Yeah, that's about it.

Aaaah, that's why you're so bendy.

[scaredtobreak.livejournal.com]

That and the gymnastics.

[low-as-youcango.livejournal.com]

...Can we be done with this whole being pissy with each other thing yet?

[scaredtobreak.livejournal.com]

...Yes.

[low-as-youcango.livejournal.com]

Good, cause today sucked ass.

[scaredtobreak.livejournal.com]

What happened?

[low-as-youcango.livejournal.com]

Eh, nothing. Except I'm apparently a moody bitch.

[scaredtobreak.livejournal.com]

Weird, I thought that was my job.

Who said that?

[low-as-youcango.livejournal.com]

Leo, who else.

[scaredtobreak.livejournal.com]

Want me to go kick his ass?

[low-as-youcango.livejournal.com]

...Can I watch? And possibly charge admission? Bet the guys at the shop'd pay top dollar to see that.

[scaredtobreak.livejournal.com]

Do I get a cut?

[low-as-youcango.livejournal.com]

[scaredtobreak.livejournal.com]

This should be fun.

[done-dirtcheap.livejournal.com]

You're so humble, Goldilocks, that's what I like about ya.

[scaredtobreak.livejournal.com]

I know, people should definitely be humble like me.

[fear-noevil.livejournal.com]

Hank's recorded a couple of her shows 'n sent 'em to me. You remind me a little of Keith Moon with a sex change.

[scaredtobreak.livejournal.com]

Thank God for the sex change part.

[fear-noevil.livejournal.com]

Word.

[scaredtobreak.livejournal.com]

...So how is she?

[fear-noevil.livejournal.com]

Stable, for now. Still asleep.

How 'bout you, you hangin' in there?

[scaredtobreak.livejournal.com]

...I'm fine.

[fear-noevil.livejournal.com]

Yer lyin'. Slayers that're 'fine' are usually fuckin' crazy. That's lesson one.

[scaredtobreak.livejournal.com]

So what's the right answer?

[fear-noevil.livejournal.com]

Stay alive 'till you fuckin' go crazy. That's lesson two: every day above ground is a good day. Seriously, what's that Watcher of yours teachin' ya?...

[scaredtobreak.livejournal.com]

We're doing a crash course in fighting and shit, that's what.

[fear-noevil.livejournal.com]

Hmph. Well if yer gonna cram, might as well go balls out. House is open 24/7, I ain't been sleepin'. C'mon over whenever and we'll drill some stuff, ai'ight? Or stuff yer face, or grab a nap.

Yer Hank's homegirl, that makes you family. That's lesson three.

[scaredtobreak.livejournal.com]

I can't. I can't face her.

I'm helping to look for Joe.

[fear-noevil.livejournal.com]

You can eventually. Invite's good forever. Unconscious or not, she needs the people who love her, kiddo. And to be honest, I wouldn't mind a little company.

Everyone is, kid, but you gotta rest sometime. Wrung out makes you stupid, you stay fresh 'cause I'll fuckin' kill you if you end up dead.

[scaredtobreak.livejournal.com]

I feel guilty, okay?

I'm resting, somewhat. How can you kill me if I'm dead?

[fear-noevil.livejournal.com]

Yeah, well, ya shouldn't. Nobody blames you for shit.

How? 'Cause I'm stubborn as shit and hugely talented, that's how. You should hear my Jimmy Stewart, yo.

[scaredtobreak.livejournal.com]

So I've heard but I'm blaming myself.

Isn't that the guy from 'It's A Wonderful Life' or some shit?

[fear-noevil.livejournal.com]

Yeah, well, don't. My ma used to say there's two kinds of people in this world: chest-beaters and ass-kickers. Ass-kickers get shit done, chest-beaters sit around mourning what they could've done. You don't strike me as a chest-beater, so...

Hey, points for you. Yeah, that's the guy.

[scaredtobreak.livejournal.com]

Maybe I'm a bit of both? Beat my chest a bit and then go kick some ass?

Yeah, well I recognize him from 'How The West Was Won' too.

[fear-noevil.livejournal.com]

Bullshit. Hank ain't got the patience for that crap.

'Nother damn good movie, yo.

[scaredtobreak.livejournal.com]

And what does that mean?

Yeah.

[fear-noevil.livejournal.com]

Means there's no in between. Yer a fighter or you ain't. I could give a shit what you think, but Hank's right: you got somethin' special, so we? Got a lotta fuckin' work to do.

You a fan of old movies?

[scaredtobreak.livejournal.com]

A fighter can feel down every once in awhile. A smart fighter uses it as fuel to push them harder and further. They're the smart ones which is better than the righteous fighters who think their shit don't stink.

Yeah, and action movies. Any kind, really.

[fear-noevil.livejournal.com]

And a strong fighter knows when to listen. And if you don't fuckin' believe me when I say don't blame yourself, listen to Hank. What do you think that tiny little super bitch of mine would say if she heard you gettin' down on her homegirl?

No shit? You seen that new one yet, THE EXPENDABLES?

[scaredtobreak.livejournal.com]

I'll stop when we get Joe back. Also, before or after she smacked you?

Not yet. Supposed to go see it soon...if Lowell still wants to go with me.

[fear-noevil.livejournal.com]

You're a stubborn little brat...but you are Hank's homegirl, so...and that'd be before. It's a paternal respect thing, she bitchslaps her pals and saves the old man for last.

Well if he don't go with ya, hitch a ride with me 'n Spike. You've met him, right?

[scaredtobreak.livejournal.com]

Yeah, she'd tell you I am a pain in the ass and the neck.

Cool. And no, not face to face but I've heard of him. Supposedly he's getting in on my training too.
