Surprise, Sidney.

[liveralone]

Hey buuuuuuuuddy.

I heard you wanna play a game?

So let's play already.

Comments

[keepsthemsafe]

...Okay.

[Someone is distinctly unnerved.]

...What kind of game are we playing?

[markhoffman]

[Waves of radiating contempt] What kind of game.

[liveralone]

Uh. Movie trivia, officer.

It's always movie trivia.

[liveralone]

It's a fun one!

[keepsthemsafe]

...uh huh.

What kind of movies we talking about here? [He's looking him in the eye, watching his hands, looking for signs. What are you on twitchy kid]

[markhoffman]

[Hoffman just smiles] I only play games I win.

Think I can win this one?

[iwanttoplayagame]

A game you say?

CAN'T. NOT. THREADJACK.

[markhoffman]

[And Hoffman is just. Fuming. Because of course this twitchy fuck is just like Amanda which means of course he'll illicit the old man's sympathy.]

XD *super voicetesting mode*

[iwanttoplayagame]

You seem a bit angry.

Whheerre are you.

[markhoffman]

[Angry? No, not Angry. Hoffman reaches for calm...and doesn't find it.]

...I'm not angry.

[liveralone]

[Mostly blood-loss, Shane. Mostly blood-loss. Little bit getting hit with a phone, dick.]

Horror movies. What else is worth it?

[liveralone]

Tough one. I mean: depends what you know, man.

So.

What do you know?

[liveralone]

I did say! That's good listening.

Are you a cop too? Because this is like a one stop cop shop in here.

Then again: it is a party. And we can't have anybody having a good time, can we?

[keepsthemsafe]

All right. I like to think I'm some kinda gorehound sometimes. Lay one on me.

[Bet you he knows all the zombie movies]

[markhoffman]

Ask your questions. [Stu, meet solid and sturdy crazy as opposed to your wacky crazy. Ever see somebody with killer eyes? That's him for sure.]

[liveralone]

[No, Shane, no zombie movies exist in Walking Dead-verse, but fuck that noise anyway. Zombies have no soul.]

I like to do a warm up question, before the real game starts, so:

What's your favorite scary movie?

[liveralone]

Ooooooh, a serious player. I like it. I. Like. It.

Question number one: what's your favorite scary movie?

[Has Stu ever seen somebody with killer eyes? Please.]

[markhoffman]

I doubt you would have heard of it.

[liveralone]

Oh, try me.

[keepsthemsafe]

[Shane's eyebrows raise]

That one with the guy in the white mask who runs around chasing after his sister? ...The new one. The one by Rob Zombie.

[markhoffman]

It's this one about this guy. He's a philanthropist. His wife works at a clinic for the poor and homeless. One day, a mental patient attacks her, trying to rob the place and he causes her to miscarry their unborn child.

[Hoffman leans against the wall] If that ain't shit, then he gets the word that he has cancer. Desperate and depressed? Guy drives his car off a cliff and you know what? He's reborn. He comes out determined to give back with his remaining years so he finds the guy who killed his baby kid and forces him to slice off his own face if he wants to stay alive.

Guy doesn't make it. He falls into a pit of razor wire and rolls himself to death. But the guy gets better, and eventually he recruits apprentices to help him teach people that life deserves to be cherished, a couple of cops and a couple of former victims and the whole city fucking bleeds but people come out... [He taps his head] They come out changed you know? They come out warped?

I think it was called Paranormal Activity.

[liveralone]

A remake.

A remake?!?!?

Are you shitting me?

1/2

[liveralone]

That sounds terrible. Like, completely un-watchable.

People come out changed? It's a horror movie. People aren't supposed to come out at all.

[liveralone]

...Are there tits in it?

[markhoffman]

[Hoffman laughs] There are women but they're sadly bitches.
