Detention, Saturday

[chosehumanity]

"Hey," Mitchell called, once the handwavey detention announcement had gone out and everyone had had time to gather up by the Danger Shop. "I'm Mitchell. Some of you might've met me." He grinned. "You're here because for whatever reason, the school has chosen to recognise your trespasses. That doesn't mean it has to be horrible, just unpleasant."

Another slight grin, with only a hint of apology.

"So today, we're going to be preparing for a tea party," he continued, "Although I'd like it if you'd all go light on the tea. I'm more of a coffee person."

He shouldn't be allowed free range of children.

"Just enter through there and get your finest," he said, waving at the doorway, "And I'll see you on the other end."

"Saving the eardrums of half the room," she answered simply. "Your music's shit." Well, it was! Not one to beat around the bush.

"You have no taste," Gilbert countered, getting back up in order to put the music back on. Girlfriend In A Coma was a legitimate musical choice.

"Coming from the guy stuck in the wrong decade?" Her taste was fucking awesome, thank you, and people kept knocking it lately, for no good reason.

"Stuck in the right decade," Gilbert said, shooting her a look. Slightly. "It's been nothing but shit since the 90s. Sell-outs, pandering to the bourgeois establishment."

"Have you even listened to anything made since the early 90's?" His decade predjudice sounded almost like boycott, so she might as well ask.

"I did," Gilbert affirmed. "It's all cock."

Michael Buble. Seriously.

"Think you're listening to the wrong stuff."

Micheal Buble was so Effy's mum's sort of music. Still in the wrong decade.

"It doesn't matter what you listen to," Gilbert said, shrugging. "It's all in the hands of corporate stooges."

Re: Talk to 80s Guy

[pastmewrong.livejournal.com]

"And this isn't?" She was pretty sure they still had corporate stooges in the 80s.

"This is classic vinyl." My god. Gilbert actually sounded offended. "Not yet besmirched with corporate dollars."

"Whatever. It's still shit," she said. "Put something on people other than you actually like."

Re: Talk to 80s Guy

[chosehumanity]

"Other people have a shit taste."

Re: Talk to 80s Guy

[pastmewrong.livejournal.com]

"Their shit taste is the majority," she pointed out. "Never heard of doing something for the best of more people?"

Re: Talk to 80s Guy

"That's catering to the public, that is," Gilbert retorted, pointing at her. "You wait and be educated."

Effy folded her arms, and waited.

"Much more of this, people are gonna riot, or something." Might make the tea party more interesting, if that was the case.
