Starting with a Bang

Who: HSS & Anyone Incoming
Where: HSS Dorms
When: Day 138 Morning

[ Good morning HSS! I hope you like being woken up by loud crashing noises because that's what's happening this morning. Inspection of the room where said crashing occurred will yield you one heavily tattooed adult (??) with his foot tangled in a blanket, looking sheepishly at his tipped over and mildly destroyed bed. To vouch for his adultness and newbieness, he's wearing a t-shirt and pajama pants. There's a flaming pony on his t-shirt. That's an important detail. ]

Ah jeez... I hope that wasn't expensive.

Shall I start up a horse racing gambling ring?

[crossmyheartandhope]

Sounds like a mob racket.

[onetrippony]

Are those illegal?

[crossmyheartandhope]

Hey, we don't got cops here. Everything's legal.

[onetrippony]

Mob racket it is.

[crossmyheartandhope]

You going by Capone?

Tell me you're going by Capone.

[onetrippony]

Don't you think that'd give away my covert operation?

[crossmyheartandhope]

That's how you prove you're super stealth, right? Gotta pull it off in plain sight, like that one movie.

Ooh. Wait, wait. Here we go, here we go: Capony.

[onetrippony]

[ Bursts out laughing. ]

Oh- oh no that's a good pun but I can't.

[crossmyheartandhope]

Too heavy on the cheese factor, huh?

[onetrippony]

A bit. I can't start laughing everytime I say my name.

[crossmyheartandhope]

Yeah, guess that's fair.

Nothing like intros at a serious business meeting, and then you can't keep a straight face.

[onetrippony]

I'd definitely get kicked out of the corporate mob world.

[crossmyheartandhope]

Double down. First person to laugh swims with the fishes.

[onetrippony]

Don't think that's too harsh?

[crossmyheartandhope]

Gotta protect your rep, dude.

[onetrippony]

I've got a lot to learn about the ways of the mafia.

[crossmyheartandhope]

S'cool, we'll pick up some mob movies. I got you covered.

[onetrippony]

Thanks for teaching me the ways of the mob.

[crossmyheartandhope]

Hollywood knows what they're talking about. I got faith.

[onetrippony]

There's no way anything in a movie is fake.

[crossmyheartandhope]

For sure. All them stop-motion monsters are as real as they come.

[onetrippony]

Oh, definitely.

[crossmyheartandhope]

For real, though, even if all we got here's the old black and white stuff, and even if it's not like a mob documentary or nothing, hit me up if you wanna check a couple out.

[onetrippony]

Yeah, sounds like fun. I imagine I'll need a little break time with all the info I need to catch up on.
