( Steve is possibly too forgiving on this matter, but, if Nancy isn't gonna hold it against Jonathan, how can he? maybe taking pictures of her getting naked from where he was hiding in some trees was totally on accident! and developing them at school must have been an accident, too. )
Hey, maybe he was just a super smart horse. He had three eyes, maybe he had extra brains too.
I've never been a little spoon before, remember? Lots to think about. Is this the right angle? What should I be doing with my hands? Does my hair smell weird?
[ Hawkins is so weird. Or the 80s are weird. Or both. ]
You think he actually saw things with that third eye? I mean, I guess it’s possible here. I’ll join your optimistic viewpoint and say the horse got out and I shouldn’t feel stupid for being beaten out by a horse because it had mystical powers and I don’t. Like a … zombie unicorn.
You just got to roll with it, Steve. Everyone’s hair probably smells weird here.
Well, if he could I guess he saw the way to get the hell out of dodge. Good for him. Wish he could have said something, but even psychic horses have limits I guess.
How am I supposed to roll with it if there's a good chance my hair smells weird?
Because nobody cares, Steve. As long as it’s just weird and not gag-worthy, you’re fine. Mine always smells like chlorine. Whatever, right? Do you need me to sniff your head before you spoon?
Now I wonder what he'd wanna talk about. If he could talk.
( steve did you find some blighted serum to huff or what )
Fuck that. I care. My hair has been a straight disaster in this shithole nightmare realm. I don't need it to smell, too. That'd ruin the cuddle vibe, I promise you it would.
Steve, your hair looks fine. Like, better than anyone else's 99% of the time kind of fine. I'm not just saying that. What are you even going to do? Wash it beforehand? Do you need me to find shampoo?
I don't know the inner workings of psychic horses, man. And you can't get them here. It's like when we get caught up talking about how good having a real hamburger might be. I feel like he'd be all "oh, I miss a good bale of hay."
I've found soap and toothpaste plenty of times. Hygiene falls under how I only find stuff for health. Chances of finding drugs are higher but I can get it. You want the soap I got right now? Would it ease your panic? What do you have to trade? [ He'll give it to him for free anyway. ]
I bet he'd wanna talk shit about the fucking clown. I would, if I were a psychic three eyed horse that had to deal with that guy.
What kind of drugs? ( Steve is only interested in one kind, frankly, but this place would be high key less miserable if he could smoke a joint here or there. ) Soap is better than nothing, I guess. I don't know, not much. Flashlight stuff. You want a sailor suit?
I can see that. Talking about how bad his back hurts from that asshole.
All kinds. Why do you ask? [ Oh. There he goes being the campfire drug dealer again. He's owning it. ] Bar soap. I have scented and unscented. The scented comes in floral and I think it's some sort of citrus. Ha ha. Uh, no. I'm not that desperate for outfit variety just yet.
Or being way too aware of the weird shit the guy gets up to in that trailer.
Probably stupid to get toked up at the campfire, huh? Nancy would murder me. ( it is stupid. he shouldn't make Quentin the campfire drug dealer. so Steve won't ask. ) Citrus, even if it makes me think dishsoap. How about the reindeer sweater? That'd look good on you.
Gross. Poor Maurice. I'd get out of here instantly too if I were capable and privy to that man's depravity. I'm still not over the fingers.
You'd just come back. The medical marijuana I've found kind of smells like shit but we can put this one flower Claudette finds in there that'll help. There's another source on Haddonfield in like the houses but I've never tapped into that. [ Quentin is downing a pill as he types. Steve doesn't even have to ask. ] It's not dish soap. Don't worry. Really? You don't want to hold on to that? I've been dying for a sweater.
Yeah. Now there's we've talked it out, really can't hold it against the guy. Hope you're in a better, clownless place, Maurice.
Doesn't all weed smell like shit? It's a hallmark of good weed. ( QUENTIN PLs THE UPPERS WILL KILL U BEFORE THE SPRINTING HILLBILLY WITH A CHAINSAW AT THIS RATE )I'll stick to soap. For now. If I change my mind, I'll let you know.
It's just a sweater, man. A doofy sweater my mom got at Sears. I've got the green one, anyway.
No, listen, there's weed smell and then there's fog weed smell. It's really strong and absolutely not a sign of it being good. It's only okay. [ NO SLEEP. His heart is a jackhammer. If he drops on him next trial from a heart-attack, just ignore it. He's fine. ] Sure thing, Steve. I got plenty.
Exactly! It's a sweater. It's got reindeers on it. It's a turtleneck. I'm going to be living it up in it. Do you have any idea what it's like seeing the Entity let everyone else change clothes and not you? I'm stuck being tree shirt guy. Killers learn my name before everyone else because I look the same every damn time. I'm going to be warm in a sweater now, dude.
Goes to figure we can't even smoke a joint around here without it being slightly worse an experience than it should be.
( Steve has truly not spared much thought to the fact he has quite a bit of outfit variety. mostly because he's so annoyed by having to wear his scoops suit, period. it's true, Quentin does only have the one look. and it's endearing how excited he is about the worlds most ridiculous sweater. )
Okay, okay. Clearly I don't appreciate it as much as I should. You can have it.
It's still a high, I guess. If you wanted one. I'm not using any of it so and have been trading it off mostly so you're welcome to it if you decide Nancy murdering you isn't a problem.
You don't. It's full of Christmas joy and I am lacking in any joy. I'm putting it immediately. Bring it this way ASAP. This is the best. If I can just get a pair of pajama pants or something to go with it I'd summon enough happiness to pull off pretending to be Kate for a day. Do you know how messed up you can get running in skinny jeans, Steve? You think Dwight will relinquish a pair of sweats?
I'll think about it. At least Nancy murdering me would be change of pace from chainsaws and hatchets.
( Steve hasn't smoked in ages, and honestly getting that loose and stupid is... well. stupid. he'd be lying if he said it wasn't tempting, though. )
I don't know the difference between skinny jeans and levis but as someone who has to haul ass in jeans all the time, I get that it's goddamn miserable. You really do need a pair of sweatpants, I'll try and see what he wants for some. After sweater delivery, obviously. Sounds like the cozy can't wait.
[ That high is probably less stupid since it's for a temporary calm than whatever Quentin's trying. Legion's Never-Sleep Pills were a trip and a half. ]
They're tighter jeans. It's miserable, as you've experienced, but with an extra spot of ouch. Thanks! I barely talk to the guy so I have no idea if he'll share. Don't tell anyone you're my favorite person now. It can't. I have zero patience for not being cozy anymore.
If Nance was a killer, she'd probably just get a murder stare. Has she ever been pissed at you? She's got this look. Hell, I'd rather be dead than get that look.
I talk to him, he's not so twitchy when he's at the campfire. He's got a ton of clothes. Which is weird, right? Everytime I see the guy, he's wearing something different. Maybe he finds new threads in the lockers.
I'm not sure who I'd tell. So sure, your secret is safe, man. ( he can't just say it out loud, because he's from the 80s, and guys don't just tell each other "it feels nice to make somebody happy in this goddamn miserable shithole". it does, though, so... Steve is glad to sacrifice a sweater if it makes Quentin so jazzed up. )
I don't think I've ever pissed her off? I've never been on the receiving end of that look, thank god. I have, however, been on the end of like this really disappointed pitying one for taking pills in front of her. The "I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed" look? Feels like shit.
The campfire is designated safe space when you're not sleeping so it makes sense he'd be calmer there. Every time I look, it's always empty. Maybe he's to clothes as I'm to medical supplies. I'm going to ask now. I got to.
Thank you! Now get over here with it. [ Blue jacket? Nah. BOOM! Christmas Sweater. ]
That one is probably worse than the angry one. ( maybe that's just because that look in particular, like he just missed the high window of her expectations, rubbed up wrong against his own demons. he usually earned it, when Nancy was pissed at him. just barely being not quite good enough; that he couldn't help. )
If every time he hops in a locker he can hop out with new clothes, at least all of us would have more than three pairs of pants in rotation.
All right, all right! Bossy. ( Steve will obligingly show up at the campfire to hand it off, though. if his old Christmas sweater can cheer the guy up, it's an easy sacrifice. his mom would get it. )
