A Strange New Day: Day 23

Leon (to Vincent): Wondering how Poppy is holding up. Have not talked to her since The Morning After. Is she mad at me or something?

Vincent (to Leon): Don't think so. I think it was more that she was upset b/c she did something w/o making a conscious choice to do it.

Leon (to Vincent): So…she's not upset that she slept with Delia and I, just that she did it while drugged. Did you see the pics?

Vincent (to Leon): Well, frm what Poppy told me, there was no sex involved. @ least not 4 her. Even still, I can understand y she was upset. & no. I didn't see any pics. U lot had deleted them all b4 I ever regained consciousness. Party poopers.

Leon (to Vincent): The only pics I saw were the super blurry ones Delia took. Wait…did you see the ones of us making out @ the club?

Vincent (to Leon): Oh my! I had completely forgotten that some1 sent me pics of that. Hmmmm... not bad.

Poppy (to Vincent): Oh honey, don't be sad. I didn't actually delete them all... only the unflattering ones. I saved the highlights.

Vincent (to Poppy): Darling, I knew I liked u 4 a wide variety of good reasons, & this is top on the list. ;-}

Poppy (to Vincent): Thank you honey! I was thinking of printing my favorites & making a collage. ;-)

Vincent (to Poppy): Ooo! I can't say that I wldn't b interested in the final product. Speaking of which, do u have copies of the pics of Leon & I making out? I can send u some. ;-}

Poppy (to Vincent): Oooh honey, you just know the way to this girl's heart... and by heart, I mean pants. ;-)

Delia (to Mouse): Soo… I signed the lease on a new place. I'll be moving the first of the month. I don't want you to think its because of what you told me though...

Mouse (to Delia): No, that's great! I'm happy that you found a place. I know what I told you was a little fantastically weird, so I wouldn't blame you if that was the reason.

Delia (to Mouse): not at all. Fantastically weird seems to be my thing now especially since I'm actually seeing Leon now.

Mouse (to Delia): Yeah, I can imagine. Has he had any luck figuring out how to make the dreams stop after I told him what Greg said?

Delia (to Mouse): Not that he's mentioned to me. I think he needs to find something first before he can do anymore. The gun, I think?

Mouse (to Delia): Yeah, there might be another solution, but trust me, he should really try to find the gun before we ask Greg for help again. There's always a price and it's not always one that's easy to pay...

Delia (to Mouse): so I can imagine after your story. This is going to take a lot of doing.. I can already tell. I just realized.. Tesla and Otto will be heartbroken when I move.

Mouse (to Delia): Oh god, that is so true... maybe I'm gonna need to get Otto a new friend.

Delia (to Mouse): or we can jump on the crazy catlady bandwagon early and arrange time for them to play together lol

Mouse (to Delia): Oh god, we totally could... a kitty play date would be quite cute.

An hour or so later:

Vincent (to Mouse): Sweet sister, you'll b pleased 2 know I am back up 2 vry nearly 100%. I've got on lipstick 2day & everything. Thank goodness! I think last nite was the 1st nite I've ever worked sans makeup. It was terrible! Not 1 guy drunkenly told me I was pretty!

Mouse (to Vincent): Oh god, do you think that's why no one was buying drinks last night? Don't ever do that again! :-P

Vincent (to Mouse): We can only assume. Don't worry, I'll never let it happen again.

Mouse (to Vincent): Please do... Our livelihood may depend on it. :-p

Vincent (to Mouse): It wldn't surprise me in the slightest. ;-} U seem 2 b in a good mood 2day. Ur not usually this spunky til u've had a couple of drinks.

Mouse (to Vincent): What!?! I can be in a good mood sober... I mean, I don't like to, but I can do it. :-P

Vincent (to Mouse): Vry true. U CAN b. Doesn't mean u usually r, however. :-P I was just wondering if u had a reason 4 being so chipper. U've been in an AWFULLY good mood lately. It's prtty adorbz.

Mouse (to Vincent): Well, I don't know, I've just been feeling in a good mood.

Vincent (to Mouse): Hmmmm. Well I have my suspicions. Regardless, it's good 2 see.

Mouse (to Vincent): Huh, what do you think is going on?

Vincent (to Mouse): Well, I can't help but notice that ur beau seems a lot more attentive since u 2 made up. I've even caught him being physically affectionate w/ u @ the club. In public! I wondered if that had something 2 do w/ ur mood.

Mouse (to Vincent): I actually hadn't really noticed a difference, but if you say so... why don't you bug him about it?

Vincent (to Mouse): Dost mine ears deceive me, sister dearest? R u actually ENCOURAGING me 2 go bug Eep?

Mouse (to Vincent): Ummmm, if it'll get you to stop bugging me then yes.

Vincent (to Mouse): Throwing ur bf under the bus, eh? I'll let him know u said that. :-P

Mouse (to Vincent): Well, honestly, if he has been more attentive & affection, I certainly don't want to discourage it.

Vincent (to Mouse): Oh, alright, fine. I'll just bug him abt something else, then. :-P

Mouse (to Vincent): Well, I guess someone is feeling better. :-P

Vincent (to Mouse): U know u missed me.

Mouse (to Vincent): Of course, I did.

Several hours later:

Mouse: The crowd has started really early tonight. That's great!

Delia (to Mouse): I think its because Vincent put on his makeup.

Vincent (to Delia): Damn straight.

Mouse (to Delia): Don't encourage him! :-p

Delia (to Mouse): To wear makeup and be the prettiest princess?

Mouse (to Delia): No, to think that we're busy, all because of him.

Vincent (to Mouse): Oh come on now. I already know that's true.

Delia (to Mouse): Could be that they're all expecting the signature roofie colada we had last week.

Mouse (to Vincent): Well, then there's no need for Leon or I to be here, then... So, have fun deejaying. :-p

Vincent (to Mouse): Time 4 a strip tease then. Put on something saucy as u leave. :-P

Delia (to Vincent & Mouse): Wait… striptease? I'm not wearing the right underpants for this.

Mouse (to Vincent): will do!

Leon (to Mouse, Vincent & Delia): Hang on, now. He might be what the kids are here to see, but they are listening to us. We can't abandon them!

Mouse (to Leon): Well, you stay here, then...

Leon (to Delia & Vincent): Guess I'm going to go for a long walk with Mouse and maybe find some quiet place to make out…later!

Eep (to Mouse): Uhhhh... Where the fuck are you guys going?

Mouse (to Eep): we're trying to teach Vincent a lesson.

Eep (to Mouse): Oh God. Could you teach him a lesson that involves him keeping his pants on?

Mouse (to Eep): Not to worry, Sasha is about to come out of the office. I told him what we were doing, but we'll be back in a minute...

Delia (to Leon & Mouse): wait... but...oh. well. (to Vincent) Are you ready for this, sugarbutt? welp. Here goes. Ready to put on a show?

Vincent (to Delia): Aren't I always?

Delia (to Vincent): Alright.. but pants stay on. Health reasons of course.

Vincent (to Delia): Boo! Alright. But the shirt is coming off!

Delia (to Vincent): ... apparently this is more popular then I thought it'd be. I wonder if they can hear the cheering?

Vincent (to Delia): I hope they can. ;-}

Eep (to Mouse): Yeah. I think you guys should come back in now. I'm not sure if Sasha is amused or pissed about the "bar show."

Vincent (to Mouse & Leon): Alright. Alright. U 2 have proved ur point. Get ur fine asses in here.

Mouse (to Vincent): Ok, we're heading back to the booth.

An hour or so later:

Vincent (to Mouse): U missed quite the show, hun. & yes, of course we all know the folks r here 2 hear u 2. But u have 2 admit Delia & I don't hurt.

Delia (to Leon): you missed quite the show.

Mouse (to Vincent): That was never the issue, sweetie.

Vincent (to Mouse): :-P

Mouse (to Vincent): Real mature, little brother. I love you. I'm heading out. See ya tomorrow!

Vincent (to Mouse): Heaven forbid I b accused of being something as dreadful as being mature! ;-} Love u 2, sweetness. See you 2morrow.
