26th Note

[thewildone]

For once there are some specific people I would really love to see.

I guess I wouldn't really mind seeing some people from back home either, but I doubt that's gonna happen.

Would you mind if I said hi?

[majorcrotchgrab.livejournal.com]

Am I included in that list?

[thewildone]

Penny! I'm really glad you showed up.

[thewildone]

Raikov? Of course you are.

[majorcrotchgrab.livejournal.com]

Good.

I'm sorry I had to leave you.

[thewildone]

It's okay, I mean, that's just how things are. I've missed you, though

[majorcrotchgrab.livejournal.com]

Now that I'm here and I remember everything, I miss you too.

voice;

[horrible-penny.livejournal.com]

Then hello, Curt! Believe me, I'm glad I showed up, too.

How are you? How's the band? Are you doing okay?

[thewildone]

You should come over. The apartment's not as nice as when you were living there, I think I should warn you.

[majorcrotchgrab.livejournal.com]

As long as it's not totally trashed.

But I'll be over in a bit.

voice;

[thewildone]

I'm all right. I wrote a bunch of new songs lately. For a while a bunch of people were having memory problems and I started forgetting everything I knew before, but everything okay now. We should have an album coming out sooner or later.

Raikov left too, but he's back today.

[thewildone]

Nah, not totally, I just have a new roommate Campbell and neither of us clean a lot plus he doesn't mind if I let the cat out. Mostly. It did try to eat his feet.

[majorcrotchgrab.livejournal.com]

My poor ex-apartment.

[majorcrotchgrab.livejournal.com]

I see.

[thewildone]

You left, you don't get to judge.

voice;

[horrible-penny.livejournal.com]

Everyone in the City was having memory problems? Eugh. How do you know you got everything back?

[Oh, but excited!] An album! Seriously? Like, one people can buy? Can I get one from you? Not right away, I mean, but when this happens again. It'd be pretty incredible to be able to hear you at home.

Sorry, Curt. Not that he's back, just that--you know.

voice;

[thewildone]

I guess I don't, but I figure if it was anything important I'd notice it missing.

Campbell, that's my new roommate is a DJ and he says he's gonna get a show going and play my music. I'll totally give you a copy. Um, where is home now exactly? [Which is sort of an awkward question, but she is dead.]

Yeah. Yeah, I know.

voice;

[horrible-penny.livejournal.com]

[That sounds perfectly logical to Penny.]

Sounds like a match made in heaven--a singer with a DJ roomie. I'll... I think I'll just have to swing by sometime. Home's somewhere between here and the Afterlife, and postage gets crazy. There're some ninjas and pirates in the way, too, so it's definitely not an easy trip without help. [This, of course, is all said rather cheerfully as if home didn't involve being dead.]

Hey, are you busy?

voice;

[thewildone]

It's cool except then he said my music was like oldies stuff and I had an existential moment of whatever. He's nuts but he has a record player so he's an okay kid.

That sounds far out.

Well, Raikov's coming over later so...but right now I'm not busy.

voice;

[horrible-penny.livejournal.com]

You don't need to listen to him or anyone else. You can even ignore me when I say that I really like your music--most of it.

It's nothing compared to everything else.

Aw, I don't want to butt into your time with him. I just need a minute for a hug.

voice;

[thewildone]

Well that's good.

I'd really like to actually see you, so I'm sure I can spare more than a minute.

[majorcrotchgrab.livejournal.com]

It's not like I left because I chose to...!

voice;

[majorcrotchgrab.livejournal.com]

Spare an hour or three. I want to see her too.

[thewildone]

I know that. Besides, almost anyone would leave if they could.

[majorcrotchgrab.livejournal.com]

I honestly kind of liked it here... In some aspects, it's better than my home.

voice;

[thewildone]

I thought you might. It'll be fun. I think I still have vodka?

[thewildone]

I dunno what I'd do if I had a choice. But I don't so--making the best of things is all there is.

[majorcrotchgrab.livejournal.com]

That's about all you can do.

voice;

[majorcrotchgrab.livejournal.com]

Good, good. We can have a party then!

[bakurakrazie.livejournal.com]

Curt!

voice;

[horrible-penny.livejournal.com]

Raikov! Are you two sure you don't want some alone time?

[thewildone]

Heeeeeeyyyy. Do I know you?

voice;

[majorcrotchgrab.livejournal.com]

We can get some in later.

voice;

[horrible-penny.livejournal.com]

I expect a hug, you know.

voice;

[majorcrotchgrab.livejournal.com]

Of course!

[bakurakrazie.livejournal.com]

Not in the least bit! I've seen you around, though. I'm B/k!

[thewildone]

Oh, cool. So where are you from?

action?

[thewildone]

[Curt waits for them to show up, managing to sort out clean glasses and various forms of alcohol.]

[bakurakrazie.livejournal.com]

United States, Earth, 2011. Long Island, to be specific.

[thewildone]

Man, everyone's always from the future.

[bakurakrazie.livejournal.com]

Still no mainstream flying cars, although they've got a few electric ones out now! You can plug it in, and everything.

action - hi thread, i missed you!

[horrible-penny.livejournal.com]

[Penny knocks because she's polite that way. Not that manners seem like a necessary thing when dealing with her favorite crazy rock star.]

Curt? You better not've moved without telling me.

action

[thewildone]

Come on in, Red.

[Curt opens the door to an apartment that contains about 80% less throw pillows since Raikov left. The cat pokes his head out, recognizes the lady that made him go to the vet, and runs off to go hide in rule over the closet.]

action

[horrible-penny.livejournal.com]

[Penny takes that as an open invitation to hug, which she does.]

It's so good to see you! You look great.

[You know. For a given value of 'great,' since Curt's 'great' is very different from the norm.]
