Article 4

[bro_codebreaker]

[this afternoon, Barney can be found in the lobby, chilling on one of the couches with a small rolling desk in front of him. his journal is out, and he alternates between skimming its contents and scribbling on a legal pad]

Okay, Paradisa. What do you think is more rare: behavioral losses, or temporary amnesiacs? It's for science. [and by science, he means Paradisa Bingo. details]

Oh, and Awesomeness Committee? Karaoke tonight, at Caritas. Be there, and suit up.

idkkkk i havent been here 2 2 long
but in xperience its totes behavioral losses

either that or the castle just keeps passing me up all like
look at that loser she dont need this
an stamps a big ol PASS mark on me
but not the cool kind of pass like u pass a class
the loser kind
like the picked last for the basketball team kind

whats the awesomeness committee
can i b a part of it
what do u have 2 do to join

[onlyanapple]

Probably the amnesiacs. I don't buy the science bullshit, what are you planning?


And we've already discussed my views on singing.

[pint_sized_carnivore]

Uhm, I don't know what's more common. I never seen much of either happen to anyone I know...

But I'll be there for karaoke.

[bro_codebreaker]

What, and spoil the surprise? Come onnnnnnnn.

... And you only say that because Jesus invented karaoke.

[bro_codebreaker]

The awesomeness committee's sacred mission is to combat the castle's insistence on making people sad by doing things that make them feel awesome, instead. Like barbecues, and karaoke, and laser tag tournaments. Oh, and drinking games.

[bro_codebreaker]

That's the spirit! Unlike some people, Crowley.. ... What're you gonna do? Or is it a surprise?

[pint_sized_carnivore]

Uh, I don't know yet. But who's Crowley?

[onlyanapple]

It better not involve me, unless my involvement includes mocking others and getting drunk while doing it.

I think that's a perfectly valid reason.

[babyaliendaddy]

Dude, there's an Awesomeness Committee?

[bro_codebreaker]

That is completely within the realm of possibility.

[a pause. oh right, demon]. Fair enough. ... You and I should invent a castle game show. Or something. Dibs on screening the showcase girls.

[bro_codebreaker]

Uh, yeah. You want in, Obviously New Guy?

[bro_codebreaker]

He's my Best Friend, that's who. Dark hair, British accent, decent taste in suits, always wears sunglasses?

[pint_sized_carnivore]

I haven't met him, but I swear I heard that name a while back...

[bro_codebreaker]

Probably. He's been around even longer than me, if you can believe it.

[pint_sized_carnivore]

I won't be surprised.

But oh yeah, how long have you been in the castle, Barney-san?

[babyaliendaddy]

Uh, fuck yeah, dude. Clearly, this is a committee built for me.

[onlyanapple]

Well, then I anticipate what you have planned greatly.

Sure, why not. We can make them do stupid things and answer ridiculous questions for some caisos or favours or whatever.

[honeytoes]

Yeah...it's totally in the intrest of science.

At a guess I'd say temporary amnesiacs... Behavioural losses happens that often around here it's almost like the castle gets off on it.

[i_got_this]

Seriously do people actually keep track of that shit?

[thebestseller]

Suited up and ready, SIR!

[spongetastic]

You want me to reserve a table for you? [being the owner, he should probably do owner-type things]

[heal_theworld]

[Martel actually has to think about that question.] Well, temporary amnesia seems to happen a bit more, I think. If you're counting world changes, of course.

And I'll be there, on one condition... You actually tell me what karaoke is.

[bro_codebreaker]

Like Double Dare! Oh man. Yes, awesome, I approve. ... We could set it up in that maze thingie.

[bro_codebreaker]

A little more than four years. I showed up on Valentine's Day, you know. I was the castle's gift to the ladies, and I just keep on giving.

[bro_codebreaker]

Clearly. Well, then, just show up at karaoke and we'll call it good. I'm Barney. What up?
