if you have to make a pros and cons list...

[morns]

the pros & cons meme
The premise is simple.

[1] Your character has a sign listing out all the pros and cons of getting to know them. Maybe they wrote it themselves, maybe they didn't.
[2] This list is displayed for everyone else to see.
[3] That's it.

Do not post any blank top levels. Comment with your character's list, then have fun reacting to other people's pros and cons.

What are you talking about? I’m going at it almost ten hours a day!

[morns]

( one has to wonder how many obvious innuendos one can drop before his single brain cell figures out what she's meaning by all of this.

honestly, she isn't even necessarily trying to hit on him (not that she'd say no either but her standards for that kind of thing are pretty much "over 18 and willing"), he just keeps making it really easy to take things to a less than innocent place. )

That's impressive. Must be thirsty work.

[forgeabettertomorrow]

It really isn’t so bad. When you’ve been at it as long as I have you tend to lose yourself in the process.

But when you’re done and you’re covered in sweat, nothing beats a cold beer and a hot shower.

...Sometimes I have the beer in the shower.

[morns]

( ok you managed to distract her from innuendo. )

Shower beer is pretty good.

( but Kate has a drinking problem so we do not recommend following her preferences ever. )

[forgeabettertomorrow]

It’s the best!

It’s like double relaxation! And no one can complain about it unless you’re in there with someone.

...In which case why don’t they have a beer too? Right?

[morns]

( ... well that lasted all of half a second. )

Their mouths are usually otherwise occupied.

[forgeabettertomorrow]

... ... ...

Ooooh. Yeah I get what you mean.

I brush my teeth in the shower too. No way I’d want a beer after that.

[That is the sound of a collective facepalm somewhere.]

[morns]

... You really don't have a clue, do you?

[forgeabettertomorrow]

About what? Do you enjoy a beer after brushing your teeth?

[morns]

( okay she'll let him know. )

Nothing to do with beers. It's all innuendo.

( please tell her she doesn't need to explain that too. )

[patchricide]

[Someone should stop this. It's gone from eyeroll-worthy to feeling mean-spirited.]

He really doesn't. So perhaps you should back off?

[forgeabettertomorrow]

I’m right here you know!

[morns]

( oh trust, you'll know when she's being mean. this is just some fun. )

He can stop being so easy, then.

[patchricide]

He's being passionate. [A beat, before she catches herself:] For his work. What's wrong with that?

[morns]

( well, Kate can't relate for one. but honestly? )

Nothing. Don't know where you got the idea I thought there was.

( she's literally just teasing Darin because it's stupid and harmless and his work lends itself to innuendo. it's just what she's used to. )
