Prompt 9 - Sprint

@wolfstarmicrofic August 9, word count 611

Previous part First Jegulus part

They fell into a steady routine at the café. Sirius and Remus always arrived at the same time. They prepped for the day ahead. They served their customers with a smile. Tidied up, ready for the next day and left at the same time each evening. They’d stayed late a few times when they first opened, but they’d both decided that they’d rather leave a bit of mess that they could clear away in the morning than reduce their hours away from the café. This worked out best for them both.  

So far, they hadn’t had any trouble with their customers, until one Wednesday morning when a grumpy-looking man stormed into the café and strode right up to Sirius, getting in his face. Remus turned away from the customer he was serving and put his hands on the counter, ready to hop over it if he needed to come to Sirius’s aid. 

“Can I help you?” Sirius asked, trying his hardest to keep his customer service voice even. 

“YOUR BLOODY COFFEE KEPT ME UP ALL NIGHT!!! I MISSED MY EXAM BECAUSE OF IT!!!” The man yelled in his face, little specks of spit showered Sirius’s face. Sirius took a step back and used his sleeve to very obviously wipe his face. 

“Sir, we are very open about the fact that the wolf’s brew coffee will keep you awake. It is strong, and we have a disclaimer on the board and on the counter where you order.”

“IT'S STILL YOUR FAULT I MISSED MY EXAM!!!” The man screamed in Sirius’s face again, prodding a finger into Sirius’s chest with each word. Sirius’s left eye began to twitch. His mother used to do that to him when she was shouting at him. It was like his mind shut off and someone else took over. One moment he was calm and the next he saw red.

“I DON’T SEE WHY IT’S MY PROBLEM IF YOU’RE TOO STUPID TO READ SOMETHING THAT IS POSTED ALL OVER THE SHOP AND REMUS WILL HAVE TOLD YOU WHEN YOU WERE ORDERING!!! IF YOU HAD SUCH AN IMPORTANT EXAM YOU SHOULD HAVE ORDERED A HOT CHOCOLATE!!! NOW GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY CAFÉ YOU IGNORANT SWINE!!!” Sirius stepped forward menacingly and the man hurriedly stepped back. 

“I-I-I’m never coming here again, and I’ll tell all my friends not to come here,” He stuttered as he backed towards the door. 

“GOOD, YOU’RE BARRED AND IF YOUR FRIENDS ARE ANYTHING LIKE YOU WE DON’T WANT THEM HERE ANY WAY! NOW SLING YOUR HOOK!” Sirius was still shouting. The man turned tail and took off at a sprint to get away from the nutter in the apron. 

“Well, that could have gone better,” Remus sighed from behind his counter. His knuckles were white where he’d gripped the wooden counter edge too tight during the argument. Sirius blinked a few times as he came back to himself.

“We don’t want idiots like that in here. Better that he knows not to come back,” Sirius jutted his chin out and went to take more food orders as though nothing had happened. He walked up to a man typing on his phone. It had a grey rat on the back cover. Sirius didn’t think more of it than it was an odd choice. “Sorry about the wait, what can I get you?” He asked politely. 

“Oh, just a cheese toastie and a caramel macchiato, thanks,” The plump man said with a smile. 

“Coming right up,” Sirius smiled back and took the drink order over to Remus before he continued into the kitchen to get the man with the rat phone case his cheese toastie.

believe for the word thingy

Thank you! From a WIP where Roy and Jamie spend the night together roaming around Copenhagen ala Amsterdam but when they get in the bus the next day Jamie has a black eye. No one believes Roy that he didn't do it.

Keeley Jones: What the fuck Roy? Did you really punch Jamie? Roy couldn’t believe Keeley of all people would think he would do this. Keeley Jones: I can’t believe you would do that again.  Again.  Oh. 

It hadn’t been that long ago that he knocked on Keeley’s door with Jamie still bleeding from his nose.  Fuck.  No wonder the team believed this was something Roy was capable of. But he had changed. Hadn’t he?

And for the sprint I added 315 words!

“We need to talk,” Isaac said seriously.  “Fuck, not you too. Isaac, I didn’t hit him.” “He’s got a black eye.” “I know that,” Roy sighed. “But I didn’t do it.” “Coach, we let you tie our dick’s together, yeah? But Jamie can’t be your literal punching bag.”

Wait holdup what’s this about Howdy’s shop burning down and nearly taking him with it?? (talking about human au)

oh yeah lmfao it caught fire

it wasn't like... foul play or anything. in my mind it was some sort of electrical failure or bizarre accident. like a lightning strike! actually wait i like that lightning strike idea bc then it could be Raining for this very dramatic scene and i do love me some rain juxtaposing fire <3

and Howdy would've been fine! he got all of his employees and customers out of the building, including himself. he handed them off to Barnaby & Wally, who had been swinging by for dinner with fantastic timing (the fire department was just then arriving). then, like an idiot, Howdy went right back inside the Very On Fire building!

bc, ok, he lives in his store. specifically, above it. the ground floor is the store, then there's a staircase going up to an apartment. and naturally, Howdy was not gonna abandon all of his / the store's legal documents (also his coupon stash) to burn.

so in his mind he was like "yeah ill just pop in, grab these very important files, and then get out. easy!". babe, you're giving Barnaby & Wally a heart attack. that's what you're doing. dumbass (affectionate)

but yeah he's in there, in the burning building, smoke everywhere. meanwhile outside firefighters (and Wally) have to physically hold Barnaby back from going in after Howdy, even though a few more firefighters already went in to find him. its all very dramatic! blah blah blah the front door becomes unusable, blah blah blah the apartment windows explode due to thermal stress & also bc i want them to, etc etc

long story short the firefighters get Howdy out through the back, and mostly unscathed at that! ofc smoke inhalation is a thing, he's got some minor cuts and burns, but it's really not that bad! lucky bastard! he gets taken to the hospital to get treated & make sure he's fine, and he is.

naturally he stays with Barnaby & Wally for a while. he doesn't have a say in the matter lol he was planning on getting a motel room or somethin, but Barnaby picked him up from the hospital, took him home, and went "alright the guest room is ready for you we can go shopping tomorrow for anything you need, you live here now". good thing Howdy rescued his coupons!

the fire damage to the building is, thankfully, mostly cosmetic. it takes a while to clean & fix it, but Howdy has great friends and a wonderful community to help out! everyone chips in, some fundraisers happen, Wally sells some Darling™️ Exclusives™️, etc. long story short they get the store back up & running, and with some new bells and whistles to go with it!

The hate against Lyles from this Olympics has been wild😅. Listen I don't really rock with his finger nail paintin but that doesn't mean imma deny his skill. We gotta tackle the unneeded hate in his two different Olympic races.

100 meter Dash: Why is Lyles getting criticized for him winning a race even if it was close. The amount of delusional people watching the race and not knowing the Torso crossing the line is what defines the winner is insane 😭. You don't see ribbons at the ankle or foot for races do you😅. Let's go back to the Beijing World Championship race between Justin Gatlin & Usain Bolt. Now of course Bolt is the fastest ever in this race but he also won by a close margin here. And guess what he dipped his chest to solidify his win 👌🏿🤣. How crazy it is to justify folks biasness and delusional 💀

200 meter Dash: Lyles has has been undefeated in the 200m for the last 3yrs and folks confidently believe he just decided to lose . Or better yet because Tebogo & Kenny were too insanely fast. As explained in my other thread (search Lyles tag on page) Two things can be right and done. We can both congratulate Tebogo on the race and actually understand Lyles had caught Covid. You're telling me it's insane to believe Covid slowed down a guy who never lost a 200m race in 3yrs😭. Also let the record show in both the 100m & 200m Lyles has always placed better than Tebogo in a race. Lyles literally one the 100m Olympic race with Tebogo in it. So what changed from the 100m to 200m🤔. I don't wanna keep harping on it because ultimately a race is won by whoever is the best on that day. Letsile won and should celebrate his Gold 🥇. But let's just stop the Lies on Lyles like he's just slow compared to Tebogo.

To reiterate: Lyles has placed Better 7/7 times he raced Tebogo before the Olympics. After the Olympics the record is Lyles has won 8/10 races between them.

As I mentioned in the Link folks hate confident Black People in any forum. Sports is no exception . Read it and understand I won't ever go against my own 👌🏿
