Lunch, and GOSSIP!

Howdy howdy howdy! Carrie here. You can tell by the pretty flower icon at the top of this post and the shoehorned-in Emily Blunt gif at the bottom of it.

Since things have gone a bit quiet, this seems like a good time to regroup and talk about what our assorted characters have been up to, lately. Or what we'd like them to get up to. Or how cute our new chunkhead cat is.

Let's play catch-up and/or do some brainstorming! Come on down.

YES. Yes to both of these things. Plus, I want Daniel to get to watch Daine work, because he'd be fascinated and he hasn't really met her properly in reality yet.

Just imagine the glorious clusterfuck of a text post that would result from the money shenanigans. Greta's probably been doing all of her budgeting very carefully by hand, because that's how you do, and suddenly she checks her actual account and is FLOORED.

He would be! I keep forgetting they haven't actually met in the meatspace. He'd be thrilled to be like WHAT REALLY YOU'D LET ME WATCH THAT IS AMAZING

I firmly believe that text post would be actual art. Rush has just been nonchalantly plundering all of ROMAC's discarded accounts and forking money over to her and he'll absolutely refuse to admit it was out of any sense of decency. I have no idea what excuse he'll make. Efficiency, maybe.

You just have to be quiet and not distract her. Save your questions for after the demonstration, Daniel.

Look, Greta, we have to spread our funds around so it's less suspicious in the eyes of the IRS. Don't make it weird.

I'm so into this obviously, Iman running interference between them, it'll be like the three-way call scenes in Mean Girls

[wildmage_daine]

I can't talk about this anymore. [obviously fake cough] I'm sick.

"oh no what's that. what's that you're breaking up. oh what a shame. guess you'll have to call me back later. bye."

[wildmage_daine]

He says, while crinkling a cough drop wrapper next to the phone's speaker, a la 'The Parent Trap.'

[lottawork]

oh my god

then he goes and actually fucks with the phone, laying it flat out on the table and taking it apart with a screwdriver

"oh no what's that is that interference of some kind. oh dear" as he takes out the battery

[wildmage_daine]

Greta marches down the hall and knocks on his door. He's just like "NO ONE'S IN, TRY BACK LATER, OR DON'T."
