DTI2: This Is Not A Song, It's A Sandwich

by **Emilie** » Sat Jan 02, 2016 4:22 am

"Tell them I'm your ace-life partner until you find a hedro one." She shrugged, going back to her sandwich.

"Good enough. Man. Cover stories are hard."

by **Emilie** » Sun Jan 03, 2016 11:46 pm

"Lying's not your strong suit." Emilie offered. "It becomes easier with age, if yer really wanting to become proficient at it."

by **Victor Freud** » Mon Jan 04, 2016 12:11 am

"Which I do. I gotta see if there's a guide for it."

by **Emilie** » Mon Jan 04, 2016 12:17 am

"Why?" She asked.

by **Victor Freud** » Mon Jan 04, 2016 12:42 am

"Being a convincing liar is a very useful skill. Especially when you have something to hide. And even more when you have to talk your way out of situations instead of using your fists."

Victor took another bite of his sandwich, about halfway done.

by **Emilie** » Mon Jan 04, 2016 12:44 am

"The trick to lying, is to not." She states in her usually vague manner.

by **Victor Freud** » Mon Jan 04, 2016 4:29 am

"Let people fill in the gaps themselves and lead 'em there, or say things in a misleading way... sounds pretty solid."

by **Emilie** » Mon Jan 04, 2016 4:19 pm

"Sort of. You just don't provide unneeded information. One of the most common reasons people get caught in lies, is that they provide too much false information they have to remember later.

Or you don't lie in the first place, you just intentionally omit the details.

For example, why do you think it is I am so confident I can drink Trev and anyone else under the table?"

by **Victor Freud** » Tue Jan 05, 2016 2:13 am

"'cause you can send it to a magical fairyland using your ginger powers?"

by **Emilie** » Tue Jan 05, 2016 2:17 am

"Maybe." She laughed. "I dunno the reason, I just know that I can. Because I have.

over, and over and over.

But I'm not gonna tell him why I'm so confident in that cuz he dun need to know I have drank him under a table before, because then *he* will ask 'when'?

And then I'm up shit creek."

by **Victor Freud** » Tue Jan 05, 2016 2:28 am

"Huh. True enough.

"What are you better at than me?"

by **Emilie** » Tue Jan 05, 2016 2:36 am

"Lying, apparently." She smirked, then made a face like she was really thinking about a more insightful answer.

"I'm more out-going than you tend to be... So things like making friends, maybe. It's not that you're unfriendly, it's that you tend to be too shy and assume no one wants to talk to you, even if they have talked to you before on numerous occasions."

by **Victor Freud** » Wed Jan 06, 2016 3:38 am

"So... be more confident and chatty. But only on a need to know basis. Got it."

by **Emilie** » Wed Jan 06, 2016 3:40 am

"It's not contradictory because *I'm* not the one telling you to become a good liar." She was still grinning at him, but it changed to 'stop pulling my leg' grimace.

"It wasn't lies, Jenny. It was acting." Victor was nearing the end of his sandwich and wipes some crumbs from his cheeks.

"Do I ever look good with a moustache?"

by **Emilie** » Sat Jan 09, 2016 3:44 am

" I don't know. You never cultivated one. We were never in a time and place that facial hair fashionable was except now.

You can grow one now if you want to? Or maybe a beard."

by **Victor Freud** » Sat Jan 09, 2016 3:46 am

"I dunno. I kind of like the idea of a pencil one, but I think that might be too European. Or put me on a list that means I have to stay 500 yards from any school."

by **Emilie** » Sat Jan 09, 2016 3:51 am

"It's pretty damn John Waters of you, admittedly.

Besides, then I might have to grow a beard to match you. That would be awesome, but I already spend enough time grooming as is."

by **Victor Freud** » Sat Jan 09, 2016 3:56 am

"You're already a punk-goth, and a mutant. Do you really gotta go for the hat-trick and add sideshow act to it?"

by **Emilie** » Sat Jan 09, 2016 4:06 am

"OK first of all? Despite the fact that I am probably one of the few people alive in this era that don't look like the Crypt Keeper who's actually been to the early days of CGBGs, *and* one of the original backers of fishnet revival, neither punks nor goths would accept me as their own. I'm simply too much of an individual for a labeling darling.

Secondly, if you knew anything about goths or certain punks, you'd know that being in a freakshow is basically the end all be all of their existence. Or an insane asylum. Or someplace haunted.

Basically if it could be a set of American Horror Story, they're down.

Plus,plus, I also have previous Carnie experience.

So the answer is YES."

by **Victor Freud** » Sat Jan 09, 2016 4:21 am

"Seriously? Man, all this... travelling, it's made you a real jack of all trades. What did you do?"

by **Emilie** » Sat Jan 09, 2016 4:25 am

"Trapeze work. That's where I started on hooping, kind of. After you been dangling from an aerial hoop several hundred feet in the air and catching another acrobat, figuring out how to use a similar hoop on the level surface ground is a cake walk."

by **Victor Freud** » Wed Jan 13, 2016 4:27 am

"I'll have to give it a shot sometime. I'm already doing the rings, a hoop isn't that much of a stretch."

by **Emilie** » Fri Jan 22, 2016 5:17 am

" I will practice with you in the Danger Room, if you want."

by **Victor Freud** » Tue Jan 26, 2016 1:38 am

"Sure, I guess that could be fun. Though they do have rings and stuff in the gym."

by **Emilie** » Tue Jan 26, 2016 1:39 am

"Do they have a hoop from the ceiling thooooo?" She asked, smirking. "Unless you want to play with the hula first."

by **Victor Freud** » Fri Jan 29, 2016 4:12 am

"You're the expert, what did you first start with?"

Victor picked up a napkin and reached across the table to brush it against the corner of Emilie's smirk.

by **Emilie** » Fri Jan 29, 2016 4:17 am

"The smarm is permanent. " She responded at him cleaning up her face.

"Trapeze bar actually, then hoop."

by **Victor Freud** » Fri Jan 29, 2016 4:27 am

"Well that's a bit like the uneven bars, so that's not too unfamiliar. I won't say they're the same, that'd be arrogant of me, but they're closer than, like, a medicine ball."

by **Emilie** » Fri Jan 29, 2016 4:29 am

"Definitely. Acrobatics and gymnastics share similarities, that is definitely how the progression was made before. "

by **Victor Freud** » Wed Feb 03, 2016 3:04 am

"Whelp, sign me up. I'm always game to learn somethin' new. Who knows, it could save my life someday."

by **Emilie** » Wed Feb 03, 2016 3:13 am

"Oh you could fall and break yer neck." She offered, tilting her head back and forth.

"Finding out is half the fun." She smirked.

by **Victor Freud** » Thu Feb 04, 2016 2:33 am

"You'd be surprised at how well I can take a fall. Or maybe you wouldn't." Victor kept it cryptic enough in case there were any eavesdroppers.

by **Emilie** » Thu Feb 04, 2016 2:37 am

"Yea I missed out on you tumbling out of that tree after a foot tall lilliputian kicked your ass." Emilie's smirk turned into a wicked grin. If it was one thing Emilie had gotten good at, perhaps good enough to rival Ronnie, it was picking on Victor.

by **Victor Freud** » Thu Feb 04, 2016 2:47 am

"See, talk like that is why I don't come and save you when you're sudsing up in the shower and things get out of hand."

by **Emilie** » Thu Feb 04, 2016 2:53 am

"Don't act like you wouldn't relish the chance to bust up into the girls showers under proper pretenses.' She teases.

by **Victor Freud** » Thu Feb 04, 2016 4:25 am

"Yes, because getting beat up by a gnome isn't enough, I gotta get beat up by other students too."

by **Emilie** » Thu Feb 04, 2016 4:30 am

"Who said I'd beat you?" Emilie commented flirtatiously.

"Well, for that anyways. I might still find another reason to beat you."

by **Victor Freud** » Sun Feb 07, 2016 11:05 pm

"Who said you'd be the only one?" Victor stuffed the last of his sandwich into his mouth, which left it too full to give any sort of snarky comment for a few moments at least.
