Birthday Party of Two

[maleborgia]

[Cesare is sitting on one of three (new! ish) barstools in Canada's kitchen, a large bowl of a dark amber liquid on the counter next to him and sending a text to Someone.]

[literally it's just a video of three different bottles (labels carefully covered) being opened and poured into a mixing bowl]

By the meadow. Not too far from the entrance, but since I was already in that far I decided to head the other way. Have you gone very deep into those?

[fuckyudied]

Yeah. Never ended up at the castle, though.

[maleborgia]

But could you... [he taps his ear]

[fuckyudied]

[mimics him]

Hear?

[maleborgia]

It was so loud. It stopped me in my tracks. I couldn't go all the way back.

[fuckyudied]

What are you talking about?

[maleborgia]

The buzzing. Like at the barrier, during the power outage.

[fuckyudied]

[TRYING TO THINK BACK...]

[maleborgia]

Well, you got knocked out first.

[fuckyudied]

Oi.

[maleborgia]

It's true. Anyway, I turned back at that point.

[fuckyudied]

[finally filling the cups]

I'm tellin' you, I never heard any buzzing.

[maleborgia]

The point is that it was so loud. You should go back to the caves and see.

[fuckyudied]

Yeah. Let's check it out.

[maleborgia]

[hand up] Whoa, whoa. After this.

[fuckyudied]

No shit! If I'm passed out later it's gonna be your fault, not the caves'.

[maleborgia]

[slow grin] Good. Besides, that noise is so irritating, we would need to have a drink first anyway to take the edge off.

[fuckyudied]

What, that sound your mouth makes?

[maleborgia]

Watch it! I'll dump this whole thing on you, just like the flour.

[fuckyudied]

[hands him a glass]

Then I better drink quick! Cheers.

[maleborgia]

Cheers. A shot on three?

[fuckyudied]

Three!

[maleborgia]

[downing it and gagging a little]

[fuckyudied]

[POKER FACE

until he coughs]

[maleborgia]

[filling his glass with water] Shit, this is disgusting.
