28th Note

[thewildone]

So I know there's more important stuff to worry about and I'm looking for a safe place to wait things out, but I can't help but wonder who is and who isn't still a member of my band. I'm pretty much always looking for musicians with experience in rock bands or any interest in rock music whatsoever, since it's hard to get people to stick around around here.

Cat ran off, fyi, but that's nothing unusual and it's probably better at taking care of itself than I am.

D'you mean it?! Brilliant! This is the best place! [Never mind harpies.] Oh Aces, then. Too bad your cat's run off. He could've eaten the harpies for us, probably

[thewildone]

Who knows, maybe that's what he's off doing?

I'll buy you a drink. [Pause. And this is action as Curt pokes his head into Campbell's room.] We did make sure we got paid for that concert, right?

[loonyandproud.livejournal.com]

I hope he eats them all and solves the problem, I'm sick a' being cooped up.

Cheers! [Oh, wait, Curt. Hi, Curt. Campbell turns around on his bed to faace him(as, other than the top of his chest of drawers, that is the only sitting area in his room).] We must've done! Ask Stephen. He probably dealt with that bit.

[thewildone]

Yeah, all right.

[Curt frowns a bit.]

I'm starting to think I need management and not just, you know, vague patronage. Did I mention we have a patron? Because that sounds weird but it's basically the situation.

[loonyandproud.livejournal.com]

You didnae mention that, no. [He thinks.] I would do it mysel' if I no had a station t' get running. [pause] And even if that one nutter is still a manager now, don't hire him. I think he still wants t' kill me.

So....what's our patron do, exactly? And why're they doing it?

[thewildone]

I have no idea who you're talking about, but okay.

His name's Adrian Veidt. He runs the Piaculum Palace and seems like he has a lot of money or at least control of where he goes and sometimes he gives some if it to me it for some reason. He's also handled a lot of the business-y stuff. He says he's really into the arts and has done this kind of thing before. I think maybe he's trying to recapture his youth. At first I thought he was trying to get into my pants but it's not like that's real difficult, so maybe I was wrong about that.

[If Curt is going to explain, he's going to explain what counts for thoroughly in Curt-world.]

I dunno his name, I just know he wants t' slice my throat or something. He's touchy.

Maybe he doesnae know it's no difficult? That's good anyway, though, if he's funding us! It's probably best if y' just don't question it too much. Anyway, I bet it's just cos he clearly knows you're brilliant!

[thewildone]

He seems pretty observant, but yeah, you're right, it's probably just because I'm such a genius.

[loonyandproud.livejournal.com]

Lucky for us he's observant enough t' notice that, then, is it no?

Anyway, where is Oh Aces, and how do we get to it wi'out getting slaughtered, d'you think?

[thewildone]

It's a few blocks away from here but it's not like it's on the other side of town. I suggest the cover of darkness and a lot of running. Maybe bring a baseball bat? Not that I have one.

Neither do I....guitar case, maybe?
