here we go again

[fiendfries]

Really? Is this a thing we're doing again? See my name written on one list and suddenly you're all gung-ho and ready to hop on the band wagon. Well, woohoo for that. I needed to stretch my legs.

Oh no, I won't get too comfortable. I did miss this body, kind of nostalgic and all those warm and fuzzy feelings.

Just don't get any bright ideas. You've got a bit of work to do before you can live up to my standards. I may have met a few fixer-uppers in my time, but lets not make this more difficult than we have to. Places to go, things to ruin--you know the drill.

Oh also, the username? Cute.

[ Why is he ever surprised to see ghosts from his past? All the same, his stomach lurches a bit, and Ruby will undoubtedly know that wary expression, even though it's worn by a man who hasn't seen her in years. ]

I'll still never get the French Fry thing.

[fiendfries]

[ Oh, she does. But he's notably scruffier than the last time they had a chat. ]

You try spending centuries having your skin ripped off your bones and not want a little grease in the pit of your stomach afterwards.

[tough_sweet_sixteen]

Oh. So you're another one of us.

With the...condition.

[fiendfries]

The "Condition"? That's a little racist, don't you think?

[tough_sweet_sixteen]

Sexist.

Apparently, the most fatal condition you can have in this world is having a vagina.

[fiendfries]

I'm guessing there's a sob story to go with that.

[tough_sweet_sixteen]

Not all that different from yours. Or so I've been told.

[boykingrising]

[ Hi Ruby, have a Sam peering at you. Just not the Sam you knew. ]

I guess living off junk food won't hurt you.

[allbloodyhail]

What have you got against fixer-uppers?

[fiendfries]

Are you looking for solidarity or just someone to whine to? I'm all ears, girlie.

[tough_sweet_sixteen]

Oh, please. Why would I want solidarity with a demon?

[fiendfries]

[ Well, isn't he just adorable? ]

Now that's a phrase I never thought I'd hear from you.

[fiendfries]

Too much work, not enough pay off. What can I say? I have great business sense.

[fiendfries]

From what I hear, you're just a hop, skip and a jump down the road from the whole eternal hellfire bit. At least that's what daddy thinks, doesn't he? Family reunions must be exciting.

[tough_sweet_sixteen]

Could have been more exciting. Your big, stupid protégé didn't really help.

[allbloodyhail]

Maybe you're just not fixing up the right upper.

[boykingrising]

[ He's damned adorable. ]

Didn't say I was gonna.

[fiendfries]

Sounds like he lumbered on pretty successfully to me.

[tough_sweet_sixteen]

I'm pretty sure "successful" isn't the right word for either of them.

[fiendfries]

You know, I could just eat you up.

[ Which is funny to her since it's Sam that feed from her. ]

[fiendfries]

Oh please. Don't tell me you're trying to cash in on the pity party. News flash? I never get invited to those. Best quit while you're ahead, bucko. You've done nothing to interest me.

[fiendfries]

Not really a miracle worker. The goons upstairs kinda have the monopoly on that.

[tough_sweet_sixteen]

You're liberal with the term "miracle."

[boykingrising]

Probably shouldn't try to.

[ And eventually, so will this one. Just not for another ten years or so. ]

[fiendfries]

Gonna do something about it, tough guy? What if I can't contain myself.
