"I'm not going to put too fine a point on it....But it's a piece of shit."
I was halfway through my personal Jim Beam, and this was the funniest shit I had heard all night. Dimo - fucked if I knew what he had been drinking. The Clamato experiment had gone around the whole group, with all of us being appauled. I'd gotten the taste out of my mouth by doing shots of mace with a gang unit cop. He'd kindly offered me a muscle relaxant as he took one, and I was glad now that I'd declined.
EoC's smile -shimmered-
It was like that moment when you realize the oasis you've been banking on is a mirage, the impending sense of shit about to be fucked.
I forget if they were talking about an art piece or someone's writing (Eve's traffic troll was GENIUS), but feelings were about to be hurt, and the group dynamic was about to fail horribly.
Cainad was still looking sympathetically amused after my own outburst. Our eyes met and we sort of knew we had to salvage this before the ugly happened.
"Before we go to Providence drama - " Roger was coming out of my mouth now. "Justify your crap Mark. How is this shit?"
"Not like we don't have time to retool the whole thing anyways" Cainad added. "I mean, it's only Saturday for fucksake." His body language could have made bomb defusing seem nonchalant.
"Very true. And you're among friends who will not bullshit you. As we have seen."
The smile was back, and growing.
"OK." I acceded. "We need to go THERE."
Holy hell. A dispatcher, a punk rocker, a geologist... I always feel outgunned when things are about to hit the fan. I am thankful for this pessimism, it keeps me willing to be practical and proactive.
Mark seemed to catch on. Offense had been given, balance had to be made. He tensed, years of jumping from stage to pit about to come to the fore. EoC? Relaxed. He'd talked men through worse, and had a vicious academia about to be pointed at the whole affair. At that moment Cram walked in with his deck of "NOT IN MY HOUSE", and saved the day.
.....or so we thought.
I maintain that the Clamato experiment was hugely successful, and it was the failure of the lot of you not to appreciate the beauty of that beverage.
I also don't remember this interaction at all, but seeing as I spent equal parts of the weekend drinking, hanging out with Eve, and fucking with Dimo, it doesn't surprise me. :lulz:
It was a huge success at the intended result. Which you intended. I KNOW.

He's been teaching them to do it themselves, the lazy bastard.
The part that sickens me is that he reaps huge profits from the enterprise and sends them all to the save the seals foundation knowing full well that he's actually their biggest problem. They're going to be so pissed off when he tells them and that isn't likely until the last one is safely pulped.
