. . ha. [ at that, he pauses. looks down at the counter. ] well. y'know. i'm just an old power strip. really, nothing special at all. but kris—good ol' kris, that didn't matter to them. they played with me just like any other toy. things change, luv—people change. i don't blame them for moving on.

i hardly get to pick and choose, luv. couldn't tell ya. if you're thinkin' i'm in any better a position than you are, well, i've got news for you.

luv, ol' tenna doesn't even let me touch the points. [ he pours them another glass without a word. ] don't make assumptions about things you haven't got the first clue about.

'course i do. just so happens i consider them rather important. [ he raises an eyebrow at them. ] not like you lot give me a real welcoming environment 'round 'ere, chum.

like i lost a bet, eh. that really all you lot think about? money and gambling? [ he slides the drink across the counter toward the pippins. ] i am where i am 'cause of kris, luv. what i want? for them to be happy. that's what.

a drink, or a goal? [ he smirks, and begins pouring the pippins a drink without waiting for an answer. ] . . . s'pose it's just where i ended up, is all. i didn't make my way to the tv world by choice, luv.

what i want? don't know what you mean, luv.

i'm just a power strip, luv. haven't got anything to do with the bloke. if you need someone to blame so bad, blame queen.

s'pose i wouldn't notice something like that. after all, i wasn't there before.

somethin's always my fault, innit.

keep getting told i look like an old dog. is that a compliment. . . ?

oi luv when you say something is for the shadowbosses can you include me in that as well? the shadow bosses and ramb if it's not too much trouble cheers

// here you go (by wtf-drawing)

(. . . this guy.)

DOES BEING BRITISH HURT

terribly ominous feeling.

B... Boob...?

s'pose not. plenty of oversights, if you know where to look.

oh, lovely. would you look at that. the last thing i saw before i turned to stone

i don't think ol' tenna planned for anybody putting that much in at once.

kris luv please stop trying to enter 8008 into the gumball machine. you don't have that many points. kris. it's not going to work luv

i hear queen started turning people into werewires? blimey. glad i wasn't there for that.

fuck i'm trying luv

"ramb's alive". looks that way. you think that stroke of luck's good or bad?

pyro jack, is it? name's ramb. lovely meeting you.

ahh, well. 'fraid that's nothing but a pipe dream, luv.

well. . . i'd wish you the best. we all want a taste o' freedom.

then, it's no wonder, innit? you don't need an escape.

you ever felt trapped, luv?

sorry to get your hopes up, hun.

ahh, that's a shame, innit, luv. if you're looking for someone experienced, you won't find one here.

ha ha. does anyone, really? freedom's a fickle thing.

i'd say that one depends on you, luv.

sometimes you need an escape. sometimes you need to be somethin' bigger than yourself for a while.

oi luv when you say something is for the shadowbosses can you include me in that as well? the shadow bosses and ramb if it's not too much trouble cheers
