Library, Thursday [01/19]

Technically, Billy was where he was supposed to be, settled in behind the front desk in the library. The fact that he was sitting on the floor, wrapped up in a blanket with a stack of comic books was just a result of the week he'd had so far. There'd been intoxication and thievery from hot Mounties and half-ownership of a penguin and look, it was his shift, and he could build himself a blanket fort if he wanted to.

"Awesome," Topher declared, climbing on in and taking a seat. "Dude. This is awesome."

It was a blanket, Topher.

"It's just a blanket," Billy said self-deprecatingly. After a moment, he remembered he was here to do a job. "Hey, did you come in to look for something?"
dollpocalypse: (!?: look up intrigued)

"Nope." Psh. Books were lame, okay. Billy was less lame.

"Oooh," Topher said, spotting the comics, "what are you reading?"

Billy smiled and handed the pile over to Topher to look through. "I've got some new stuff, and I'm catching up on some old issues of things too. It's usually pretty quiet in here, so I have a lot of time to read."

"Cool," Topher said, flipping through. He was easily entertained. "Oh, this one's really good," he said, pointing to one of the comics. "I was all, 'Whaaaat? Crazy.'"

Very informative, Topher.

Billy laughed, reading over Topher's shoulder. "I should have known you'd be into comics. When are you going to run another D&D game? It'll be even more fun without imminent doom on us."
dollpocalypse: (conv: condescending)

"I thought the imminent doom added something," Topher contributed helpfully.

"Well, it got us all in one place, at least," Billy said. "But it'd be nice to get to play without wondering if players are going to be missing the next day. Not that that's ever really a given around here, I guess."
dollpocalypse: (conv: talking in class)

"They could be rodents," Topher suggested. "Or hungover. Or hiding in general."

All valid reasons for being missing, yes.

"I'm glad you're human again, by the way," Billy said with a laugh. "And I'm glad we're both not hungover anymore. We have got to start leaving our wallets at home when we go places with Bobby and Tony."

Topher's eyes went wide. "But then where would we get penguins? And texts like these?" he asked, passing Billy his phone.

Billy's face turned increasingly red as he read the texts. "Yeah, you're a lot more...open about things when you're drunk, that's true," he said, pausing for a moment. "Did Tony really say you have skills?"

LOOK, HE HAD TO KNOW NOW.

Topher NOT WESLEY OMG grinned shyly. "Yeah," he admitted. "Other things too. But."

"That's good to know. For you," Billy blurted out. "For the future. In case you get to do it again. For which I kind of hate you."

"Did you do... like, anything?" Topher asked curiously. Because this was a totally appropriate conversation.
selfhelphero: ([neg] oh boy public speaking)

Re: Talk to Billy

[personal profile] selfhelphero 2012-01-20 02:38 am (UTC)(link)
"We just made out," Billy said. It was totally appropriate to commiserate after a weekend of craziness! "Which was still pretty awesome. I don't think I'd have known what to do if he wanted me to...you know. Or maybe I would have, in my crazy state, I don't know."
dollpocalypse: (pos: yes but i'm always RIGHT. so.)

[personal profile] dollpocalypse 2012-01-20 02:43 am (UTC)(link)
"It's not that hard," Topher encouraged. Then he snorted. "I mean."

[personal profile] selfhelphero 2012-01-20 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
Billy giggled in a completely inappropriate way. "If it's not hard, you're not doing it right?"
dollpocalypse: (conv: i prefer man-reaction)

[personal profile] dollpocalypse 2012-01-20 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
"I'm pretty positive I did it right," Topher informed him. Helpfully.

"If you made Tony happy, then you totally did it right," Billy said with a nod. "Even if it was a weekend where everyone was nuts. It still counts, somehow."

"That's sorta what I was thinking," Topher agreed, counting on the blanket overhead to mask his slight blush. "I mean. He probably appreciated it! Even after the fact!"

Oh god, these boys.

"I'm sure he did, even if he did end up with Stephanie anyway," Billy said, trying to be reassuring.
dollpocalypse: (genius: thinking)

Re: Talk to Billy

[personal profile] dollpocalypse 2012-01-20 04:16 am (UTC)(link)
"Think they do that a lot?" Topher wondered. Because he was a freaking weirdo.

[personal profile] selfhelphero 2012-01-20 05:10 am (UTC)(link)
"Ew," Billy said, wrinkling his nose. "Probably, but I don't want to think about that."
dollpocalypse: (tech: this imprint's fucking compromised)

"Ugh, yeah," Topher agreed. "Even if he said he hasn't done, like, everything. It's still gross."

Meanwhile, in room 308...
