[TEST] DRIVE IT LIKE YOU STOLE IT

[reapsthewind]

I HONESTLY COULDN'T THINK OF A GOOD PICTURE SO THANKS LAVVY

Here, have the slightly more relevant song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_nLlL1mwKI

Anyway, this is a random scenario test drive meem, since we've had an influx of new potential appers. I am a bit too lazy to make this a proper meem, so you make your own shit up. Here's some inspirational scenarios:

> The Mall. The hell are you doing out in the suburbs, bro? And why is that woman trying so hard to sell you nail polish?
> The Park. MAN IT IS A NICE D-- shit is that a Vermicelli or whatever the monsters are called?
> Arts & Crafts Fair. Cute knit cat cozies! Bad pretzels! YEAH.
> Rainy Day. It's wet and you're stuck at the bus stop. HOW DEGRADING.
> You get an echo while someone else is around. SHIT. PARANOIA TIME.

Or make up your own!

Yes, yes, it is...

[ Despite gritting her teeth, Brenda seems to agree with Charlie's reply there. Charlie probably knows by now that what's coming next is in no way an agreement though... ]

But that is still beside the point! Charlie, you promised!

[bonder]

[ Her grip on the box tightens. Half because she's going to be stubborn while the other half is just preparing herself for scoldings. ]

I- I did! I said that I would find them homes, right!? I'll make sure this one gets a good home too!

[sunbright]

And that's still not the point!

[ moving a bit closer to under the bus stop now ]

Who's going to take care of them in the meantime? We have Anne, Sam, Kerry, Sherry, and Katie at home already! Do we even have enough space for any more cats? ...And you know that we've been receiving enough complaints from the neighbors already when Sam and Kerry ended up fighting each other in the middle of the night the last time... [ breathes in and tries to calm down. Even if she is angry, she shouldn't say that much in public, least of all a bus stop... ]

I'm not saying that you shouldn't care for them, but... those are the things you need to consider too before taking them in! Otherwise, it'll just be irresponsible of you!

[bonder]

Ugh...

[ Each word hits like a ton of bricks. She can't deny it, but she can't easily back down either. Of course, she doesn't want to trouble Brenda, still... ]

But I can't just abandon Yeoman! [ Yes, she named him already. ] It's cold out, he's hungry, and it's cold out.

[ ... She said one of those things twice. ]

[sunbright]

Even so...!

[ Stops herself before she goes on. While a part of her wants to keep being stubborn, she realizes that Charlie and the cat are probably soaked at this point... Indeed, even if Brenda's against keeping him, she can't let (Charlie and) the cat stay soaked either... She's totally (futilely) not letting her worry shows on her face though-- ]

[ getting under the bus stop and tipping the umbrella so that it covers Charlie and the box ] ... I-In any case, we'll continue this discussion at home. For now, let's get away from here first.

[bonder]

Ah...

[ Best sister. It was certainly getting cold there. Oh, it's not wet anymore! The cat, Yeoman, in the box looks up at Lucia and lets out a mew. ]

"Thank you, Brenda!" He says. [ Charlie chimes in cheerfully. ] I agree, Yeoman.

[sunbright]

[ she's immune to his meow she swears!! totally immune!!!! ]

I-I haven't actually agreed with keeping him yet, you know! It's just... counterproductive to have both of you stay in this rain.

[bonder]

[ YEAH, SURE. ]

Ehehe... I'll make sure to do even extra chores around the apartment, Brenda.
