12th Elevator-Voice

[honeytoes]

Well...that was an experience wasn't it?

For the record I don't do robes...I've got nothing against them per say it's just they don't exactly show off my great ass.

Anyway on a more serious note...

[He pauses for a moment.]

To anybody who knew Evan Sabahnur he's no longer in the castle. I went to check on him when we got back and his nameplate wasn't on the door.

[ He sighs...Gary feels like a bit of an ungrateful asshole. Evan helped his injured paranoid ass when he first arrived here in Paradisa. He could be considered Gary's first real friend here and he can't help but think he should have made more of an effort with the kid.]

Still the show must go on right?

[mal_addict]

Sure, I'll be on my way now.

[Which won't take long because that's just one floor above her. Knock knock.]

[honeytoes]

[Well that was quick.

He opens the door to let her in.]

Wow...you don't hang round.

Come in...a fresh pot has only just boiled so help yourself.

[mal_addict]

You're not that far away from me, I'm just downstairs. Plus, you know, vampire's are fast.

[And being invited in, she can step over the threshold into his room] Don't mind if I do, thanks.

[honeytoes]

Right of course.

[He smirks.]

You know you guys could probably make a fortune in the pizza delivery business.

Don't mind the mess...I've been meaning to tidy up but I've been a bit pre-occupied with being a wizard lately.

[There are various books on mythological creatures and electronics scattered all over the place.]

[mal_addict]

Ah we have a downside to that. We couldn't deliver the garlic bread.

[She'll go LOUNGE somewhere, as she's want to do]

That sort of things would eat up a lot of your time. You need a lot more pie around this place to really make the effect right, too.

[honeytoes]

[He'll just be over by his desk pouring himself a whiskey.]

Pfft who the fuck likes garlic bread anyway? Stoner hippys that's who.

You have wizards in your world right?

[mal_addict]

Ah, hippies, people I know have spoken about them. I don't think we have any in my world. [They do]

We do, unfortunately. Annoying buggers that they are.

[honeytoes]

Right.

Are they anything like those guys from Hogwarts?

Because man they seemed really stuffy and obnoxious.

[mal_addict]

Not at all. They are stuffy and obnoxious. They basically sit around and get fat, while pretending they're learning the mysteries of the Disc to keep us all safe, and informed and whatever.

[honeytoes]

Oh we've got guys like that at home.

They're called Senators.

[mal_addict]

Ah, in charge of matters of state? We have them too. They're a touch less pretentious than the wizards.

[honeytoes]

But still obnoxious motherfuckers right?

[He'll just be over by his kitchen bench preparing the coffee.]

By the way...how do you take it?

[mal_addict]

Oh, most definitely.

[,I>She flashes him a fangy grin]

As black as the night.

[honeytoes]

[He makes a scoffing laugh.]

Yep we might be dealing with different worlds here but some things stay the same regardless.

[Soon enough he's handing her a cup.]

One black coffee for the woman vampire with excellent taste.

[mal_addict]

[She'll chuckle, raising it in a toast before taking a sip of it. Sweet, beautiful coffee. Never leave her]

Why thank you. I'd deny it, but my mother taught me never to lie.

[honeytoes]

Well somebody's got to be a role model for the kids today.

[He's poured himself a whiskey...it's what he does best in emotional situations. However Mal's company is starting to relax him.]

So here's to Evan...

[He raises his drink in a toast as well...before downing it.]

[mal_addict]

You're a brave man, taking on such an important task.

[She'll repeat the motion, taking a sip of her coffee]

To the kid.

[honeytoes]

Yeah tell me about it...I've got the weigh of the world on my shoulders here.

[He says without irony.]

[mal_addict]

We're all eternally grateful, Gary.
