041. Diagnosis

[vicodincrutch]

Someone took something more than a left shoe. My homosexual roommate is missing. I'm thinking for good. That leaves me with more space and a crapload more pink than I could ever want.

I don't have a yard but I'm thinking yard sale. It's only for the best. I'll euthanize the living room as soon as its cleared properly. At least I won't crave cotton candy staring at the wall anymore. I'm not kidding, six thirty in the morning or three in the afternoon. Candy.

Anyone have a copy of The Great Escape handy? Who am I kidding. None of you know what I'm talking about.

Oh yeah, for future reference, all you people should read up on first aid. That was a curse, had it been a real emergency a lot of you would be S.O.L if you know what I mean. I'm sorry I couldn't be a leader of men. Checking up on everyone else's agony wasn't high ranking on my list of things to-do.

Book or film?

And why the fuck wouldn't we know what you're talking about?

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

Film. No book has Steve at work.

If you were an uncultured idiot or under the age of thirty.

[notagangster.livejournal.com]

Good choice.

Glad to see I'm neither then.

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

I know.

Do you have it?

[notagangster.livejournal.com]

Nope. 'Fraid I got here with literally the bloody shirt on my back. Haven't had a lot of time to set up housekeeping. But there's gotta be a rental place somewhere in this city.

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

There is. I just don't want to go through the hassle. I might though.

[notagangster.livejournal.com]

There not some way to download a copy or something off the network? Gotta admit, I haven't explored it all that much...

Might be worth the hassle for McQueen, though.

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

Piracy. Huh. I like it. And no way to get sued for it.

Maybe. I'm having a bad week already. It could take awhile.

[notagangster.livejournal.com]

Pretty sure there're more important things for the cops to be worrying over.

Your bad week is gonna make it extra hard for you to go find a video shop?

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

Until someone makes a fuss you mean.

They're just that bad.

[notagangster.livejournal.com]

Yeah, illegal downloads are probably a lot more menacing than a serial killer on the loose.

Because your boyfriend left?

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

Those movies could be someone's brother.

Unless he made me gay and then made me relive muscle death, sure.

[notagangster.livejournal.com]

Which'd make 'em safer in your house than out on the street.

Right, so, not your boyfriend then. Curse?

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Someone could cry kidnapping. It's not what it seems.

Took you long enough.

[notagangster.livejournal.com]

Your secret's safe with me.

Mate, I been here a month. Not up on all the details of these curses yet.

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

And now we move on like it never happened. Excellent.

It's not like we get the same ones twice. Often that is. There's usually a period of two or three months before just one or so come back.

[notagangster.livejournal.com]

Well, it was getting kinda played out.

So let's see if I'm getting all of this right -- your roommate disappeared, and you want to drown your sorrows with Steve McQueen, but you got hit with a curse couple days ago, so you can't go rent your film. Not quite sure how you're getting from point A to point B there.

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

I found my own solution. It's cheaper.

[notagangster.livejournal.com]

That'd be bitching at the network and hoping somebody ponies up a copy?

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

Don't knock it until you've tried it. I've got results.

[notagangster.livejournal.com]

Yeah? Somebody come through for you?

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

Yep. Now if I can get a bucket of popcorn out of it...

[notagangster.livejournal.com]

You always get on the network to guilt people into doing for you?

[ooc: He's laughing. XD]
