I probably don't have to point it out, but all that unpleasant nonsense the other day was just that-- nonsense. I am neither a mass-murderer nor a mime, et cetera.

And no, Deb isn't a super hero or a cokehead, and if I made a crack about how good she'd look in brightly-colored spandex she'd probably hit me, so I won't.

So, um. What's the deal with today?

|[ooc: FOURTH-WALL THE HELL OUT OF HIM, PLEASE. I would like to request though, that no other City folk remember anything incriminating that gets said today, after the curse ends? ;_;]|

Married?

Jeez. Congratulations, I guess. Time flies when you're not around to watch it pass...

'My' mother is in surprisingly good shape. All things considered.

[dark-passenger.livejournal.com]

I'm going to be a father.

Yeah. I guess.

Is she? How's that?

[cold_dry_pieces]

Wait, what? Why didn't you say that first? Jeez.

She's... fine. She's here. For today, anyway.

...she asked after you.

[dark-passenger.livejournal.com]

I dunno. I thought marriage was a little easier to announce.

...here?

....Mom?

[cold_dry_pieces]

Yeah, but a kid-- that's... big. Christ. Boy or girl, do you know yet?

yes, here. and...

You should talk to her.

[dark-passenger.livejournal.com]

Not sure.

...How?

[cold_dry_pieces]

Just... go say hi. Hell if I know how to get around the awkwardness, but... it would make her happy, Dexter.

...Deb's gonna skin me if she sees this.

[dark-passenger.livejournal.com]

Alright.

...make it private.

[cold_dry_pieces]

Maybe. She'd probably hear about it anyway. Besides, people have said worse. All lies, of course, but worse.

Damnit Dex. I wish you were staying.

[dark-passenger.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry, Brian.

I'm sorry...

[cold_dry_pieces]

You don't have to apologize, I just... wanted to say it.

Cut me a little slack, I'm as out of practice as you are.

Brian...


Maybe we should...tonight. Celebrate.

There are so many people that'll be gone by tomorrow...

[cold_dry_pieces]

There are, aren't there. Makes for a unique opportunity.

How could I say no?

Might as well make our time together worth it.
