You must feel like freezing your nips off when you end up in Ormond, too.
( rip to billy AND david how have their nips not fallen off at this point )
Thanks, buddy, I sure will. Worse things to look like, if you ask me. ( he's really embraced his inner dad lately, Billy, you can't hurt him with dad vibes talk anymore!! )
quit worrying about my nipples, harrington. but yeah. id kill for my jacket. the leather one. [ Some survivors are more special than others, Steven. They get more sweaters. ]
yeah. at least you have a regular amount of limbs. [ The 'buddy' is annoying: who is this Steve Harrington? One harder to coax into anger, which, is strangely off-putting at times. Like that extra time alive gave Steve the upper-hand. ]
No dice on leather jackets but I've got a reindeer sweater you could borrow.
( 😇 so helpful huh??? it isn't Steve's fault he is a special boy and the entity dresses him nice! as for being harder to ruffle, it is less being alive longer and more that he's the single mom of seven children now, hadda get serious sometime with responsibility like that )
Is that supposed to be a dig on Ash? Ain't like the guy up and decided he wanted to be a lefty for the rest of his life.
Suit yourself. You might get a chance next time we end up in Ormond. Maybe you'll actually button your shirt for once.
( wow it's like he's a kinda mind reader! or he thinks too much about how many buttons Billy isn't buttoning. purely because he feels bad for the useless bastards, obviously no other reason )
Oh yeah. That fucking guy. Yeesh. ( Steve forgets it has a name, but as it is an animated corpse pile, it might be his least favorite murderer in the whole place. which is ironic, because the demogorgon is out here eating heads. )
I'll take your word for it. If I've got something that zips, I'm staying zipped.
( Steve is precious about blood, if he can not be covered in it, that's the preference. and what the hell, billy, are u implying he isn't cute in his reindeer sweater? ?? )
Hate that fucking guy. Not that I wanna go shake hands with the towering Japanese fireball or anything, but the pile of 18 baby hands is worse.
i do know how to button my jacket harrington. since youre so fucking concerned
[ It doesn't help much in Ormond though. It's a jean jacket in Fog Canada! But sometimes David pops in with a bare chest; Billy's not about to be a major bitch baby about it. ]
You know what? I was kinda worried. It's not like you've got a good track record with buttons.
( is it weird to fixate this much on how unbuttoned a guy's shirt is? not if it's funny, and in Steve's opinion it is.
much less funny? people being consumed whole by the boogeyman made out of severed limbs. so thanks for ruining his riff about having your tits out, Billy. )
... I don't remember. ( which is not an auspicious sign... ) Saw it get Dwight once. Can't say I wanna give it a spin.
[ Jackass. The leather jacket would make all the difference if he had it — sort of. He spent one winter in Hawkins before his death, and he was miserable every day of it. You're not going to catch this hot dumbass in gloves. ]
( ...is it weird he doesn't remember his own specific, gory deaths particularly well? if anything, he remembers other people dying better. that settles bone deep. the glazed over look on Kate's face as the clown sucks at her severed fingertip overhead. Nancy's shrieks smothered in the endless maw of the Demogorgon. Dwight getting his tongue ripped out and battered to death, Bill getting chainsawed in half after saving his life. those stick with Steve more than the many, many times he's died.
still, it is hard not to worry about a few screws going loose in the realm. when he's been doing this for months. or even years, it's impossible to really know how long its actually been. endless death loops can't be good, just ask Caddyshack. Steve doesn't appreciate the idea his memory might be starting to fail him, since it was never that good in the first place. he especially doesn't like it thrown back at him from Billy Hargrove, who personally rattled his brain around in his skull like a maraca. )
Maybe, asshole. No thanks to you and that plate.
Whatever, if I'm being swallowed whole by a pile of severed human limbs, I'd rather not remember. ( he's not unnerved at all that he can't really be sure, no, not him!! he's definitely not going to ask Nancy if she remembers all the ways she's been murdered after this. nope. )Good talk and all, but the shitty showers at Haddonfield are somehow more appealing than this conversation.
[ All of that is fucking weird. Weird as shit. Who forgets getting sucked into a monster's maw? Billy takes the plate mention with some chagrin. Yeah, maybe he played a part in Steve's brain damage. Yeesh.
That's above Billy's pay grade. And they aren't friends. They hate each other. Or maybe Billy hates Steve, and Steve's some six+ months older mystery. Billy still hasn't gotten around to asking what happens after he dies. Doesn't really want to know. Or ask. Jesus. All of this is fucked. ]
i can give it another shot. try knocking some screws back into place. enjoy your shower, harrington. you need it. dont get stabbed.

Date: 2022-11-11 05:18 pm (UTC)I get you can't do a polo, since you can't handle a shirt that buttons up to the neck, but other people like them just fine.
