HIGH WIND WARNING IN EFFECT
no subject
Yeah, I ordered one. What do you think?
[ great, right. ]
[ he's that sims player who uses a lot of money on the best tv when a family moves into a new house and then gets bored with the file when all his sims do is piss themselves and starve. ]
no subject
It's your house.
[well technically sam's name is on the lease. sam's is.]
If I'd known I'd have brought some of my movies, I guess.
[haha. if he'd had any idea blackwell would be like this he'd defiitely have stayed in brooklyn, but now he has to know and so it's much too late.]
no subject
[ bet you just love those. watching the cars drive by endlessly when you can't even tell them apart. ]
And porn.
[ he's being mischievous here. just a little. ]
no subject
[manages to sound both noncommittal and disapproving in just one non-word syllable.]
Well, if they can't deliver the thing when nobody's home, I guess I can stick around until then. Get my notes back in order.
[get my red string re-strung.]
no subject
Yeah, someone needs to open the door. I imagine I'll be gone for most of the day.
[ don't make the house too creepy. ]
no subject
Well, let me know how it goes, I guess. At least they said it's not one of the kids. Thank God for that.
[he has some solid theories, but this town is really crammed with underinvestigated missing persons cases. no wonder they imported ben, though they probably should have looked for someone who actually cared about what he's doing.
all right that's a little unfair.
also he's gonna make the house super creepy. coffee cups, harsh lighting, decanters of whiskey and a slight haze everywhere. he's not even gonna smoke, it's just gonna get hazy.]
no subject
I'd rather find them than thank the lord for dead bodies I never asked for. [ he cares!! he's just a little distracted at the moment. checks his phone again. ]
Yeah, I'll try to get back before the storm. It's gonna be a big one, I heard.
[ unless he hooks up with Izzy again. we'll see. later sluts. goes to pick up his coat. ]
My credit card's on the table. For the tv.
[ points in the general direction of his room. he's putting on his coat as he's halfway out of the door and then he disappears just as fast as he appeared. ]
no subject
[good point kid.]
Yeah, be careful on yo–
[and he's gone. stares at the shut front door for a few seconds after ben's gone, trying to recover from hurricane ben a little]
You haven't paid for it yet and you want me to run your card and sign your name.
[flatly. he laughs, but it's also kind of flat, like it's funny but in a depressing way.]
Sure, whatever, it's as much my name as "Sam" is. Why not.
A flatscreen TV.
Christ.
