Username: harrington
Warnings: none rn, will update if needed/requested

Hey so is this a regular Halloween parties and trick or treat kind of town, or is it gonna be like a portal to hell opens and rains unearthly terrors down on us kind of town tomorrow?

I mean I think this month's already been kind of a lot. Personally. But I know that's basically worthless to a demon or whatever. I just want to know my odds of having to deal with MORE horror movie bullshit.

But uh

also don't be a dick to trick or treaters no matter where we land on that. Like, be cool. They're kids. Between the hell portal and the popcorn balls, those twerps are gonna have enough to complain about.

Ok thanks

["A lot" is one way to describe it- but Eddie isn't here to focus on their completely fucked up month; he's sure Steve is already thinking about it plenty.]

can't help but look out for the little ratbags of the world, huh harrington?

[He gets it. Eddie misses them too.]

hey uh
you doing anything tomorrow or just planning to hole up and wait it out?

[haircaring]

I got to be a ratbag, so it's only fair that they get a chance to be little ratbags.

[ At least they have the twerp-missing solidarity. And the solidarity of "being here is bad but slightly less bad because there's at least one person who's been to the same parallel time-frozen hell dimension as me." ]

I don't know. I mean I don't exactly have plans. Why? Something you wanna check out?

[bardsofprey]

yeah i bet you were an absolute menace

[He's not sure if that's true, actually. It's just as easy to imagine Steve as a quiet kid.]

nooooope not exactly
theres not really a non embarrassing way to say this
i dont REALLY want to wait and see what kind of hellmouth is gonna crack open and spew evil shit on halloween here by myself
do you wanna just hang out

[haircaring]

I was terrifying.

[ inb4 he was a polite-ass little guy. ]

Oh my god are you using me for my monster killing skills? I should have known.
I'll hang out though yeah.
See what kind of weird movies they put on TV these days.

[bardsofprey]

[Sounds about right.]

im not ONLY using you for your monster killing skills
you have other assets. id say its more of a perk
you bring snacks ill bring beer?

[haircaring]

I mean as long as there's other assets sure.
Yeah, I got it covered. Now is like THE time to tell me if you have some bullshit food allergy.

[bardsofprey]

you don't wanna know what they are?

i dont think i will. i'm just gonna russian roulette it. take a bite and see what happens

[haircaring]

Like I'm gonna walk into that one? No way. I know my assets.

So no allergies but you're trying to be cute about it, got it.

[bardsofprey]

i would LOVE to hear you list your own assets. for real

uhhhhh RUDE? trying isn't part of the equation here, harrington. i am cute as pie. potentially deadly allergy pie

[haircaring]

Yeah, hair, looks, charm, common sense, car and license. Fighting bullshit monsters. Herding a whole gaggle of little weirdos.

Assets. Duh.

You're not even denying that that's what you're doing!

[bardsofprey]

[This sucks. This sucks so bad. Eddie is NOT grinning as he reads.]

ohhhhhhhh, ok. and i'm the one acting cute. you forgot modest, man. AND you don't have a car here. strike that off the list

😊 i plead the fifth?

[haircaring]

I evolved past modesty. So I'll take car off the list and put cute in instead, thank you for reminding me.

Whatever dude, I'm buying you candy corn.

[bardsofprey]

i want it known that i regret setting you up for this. reaaaaaally regret it

oh here we go. the true Harrington is coming out to play right now and ladies and gents he is cruel beyond belief! a tyrant!

[haircaring]

So I won.

What are you allergic to eating wax?

[bardsofprey]

uhhhh okay! i don't know what kind of magic spell you think you cast to transform the words i wrote into that, but it didn't work!

i'm allergic to your sass.

[haircaring]

Dude you totally sassed first. Let he who is without sass smart the first ass.

[bardsofprey]

dude. cmon. wording.

[haircaring]

I don't see your point

[bardsofprey]

you're so charming

[haircaring]

[ WOW RUDE ]

You only think you're joking.

That's part of it.

[bardsofprey]

[What else do you expect from him, Steve?]

oh, really? this is intentional? so when do i realize i'm charmed because i don't think it's sinking in yet

[he says, like a liar]

[haircaring]

If I'm charming, it's intentional. If I'm not it's also intentional.

It's all intentional. I'm carefully crafted.

But I so don't control when you figure out you got charmed man.

[bardsofprey]

oh MAN no god damn it its happpening right now! there it is! its all over i can't believe this

pretty clever move, being charming by admitting its all manufactured. i'll have to remember that one

[haircaring]

Remember it all you want man. You're still like the least manufactured person ever.

[bardsofprey]

that's a compliment, right?
