#its so funny when said guy in stupid hat thinks you're not making fun of them either

[yey56]

Villainous x sarcastic and trouble maker dealer.

DR FLUG🧪:

Thinks your the rational version of Dementia, at least you can be reasoned with.

Sometimes you feel bored and just start to move things from its place, not very far away but defenetly not where they were and it drives him nuts, he's seriously considering that he might have early Alzheimer.

He still thinks its Dementias fault that his things are disappearing and reapearing in different places. You're just laughing in the corner watching they're discussions unravel. 😜

Tries to ally with you whenever he wants to deal with Dementia because your smartass actitude and sarcasm makes you the perfect match for her.

When he's explaining something in the commercial videos he's already expecting either you or Dementia commenting something. 👀

Even though he doesn't admit it much, he likes your funny nature and you're easygoing self.

When you're feeling kind you tell him jokes and make funny comments so he can have a more relaxed environment.

he always laughs at your jokes and sassy answers, but he will always try to hide it.

You're like a ticking bomb waiting to explode, only that you explode with words, every time you open your mouth he doesn't really know what to expect. 💥

You don't always get along but you are able to have fun together and cooperate 👍

DEMENCIA🦎:

Three words: ✨Partners in crime✨

When you're bored you team up with her to annoy Flug, or anyone at your reach.

Once you guys stole a bank and run away with a bycicle so while you were scaping you looked back at the police for a second, that single thing made you both fall to a river (Spoiler: Dementia had to drag you out)

Whenever one of you has committed a crime you can bet that the other is either involved or fully aware of it.

Sometimes you're bored and instead of being productive like you boss has many times aggressively kindly suggest you, you think is a better idea to make an absolute mess. Of course Dementia appears and you both really get carried away. So when shit hits the fan, Black hat appears with all the intention to yell at you both, thats before Dementia literally grasps herself around him.

Of course you take advantage of this to make a quick scape before the boss can notice you presence.

After 2 hours of Black hat trying to get Dementia off of him he called you to deal with her, so after another 30 minutes of bribing her with sugar and energy drinks (probably not your best idea but certainly the quickest one), you finally got her away from your boss.

All of Hat island knows you as the main troublemakers of the place, the almost abandoned police department in the island has a honorary photo of your mug shots in the main entry.

Dem/You: our friendship goes beyond your average kind of bond (🤨🏳️‍🌈)

You: but not because we're gay.

Dem: No, not because we're gay.

Dem/You: were close but not that way, the only one that I love is Blackhat/ Myself 😃.

BLACK HAT 🎩:

He can appreciate witty and mentally quick people, smartness is useful.

Has catch you once or twice slipping some sarcastic comments from time to time, if he's in a good mood he'll ignore them, if not he'll just look at you menacingly.

Sometimes when he doesn't want to go to an event he's been invented to you are send in his place (and if he doesn't like very much the host of said event he allows you to insult other guest, you used the "his words not mine" as an excuse 😈)

You have the bad habit of cursing a lot and you have already been warned that if you keep insulting so much he will tear your tongue away from you mouth.

He wasn't done it yet but instead has put soap in your mouth, and once physically banned you from saying curse words.

You: YOU...

Dem: stupid

You: AND ABSOLUTELY...

Dem: useless fuck

You: I HOPE YOU DIE A HORRIBLE DEATH YOU...

Dem: bitch-smiling

Flug: what the hell are you doing?

You: boss has banned me from saying curse words but I'm unstoppable.

Black hat: I don't think so - turns you tongue into an alive fish. 💀

You basically have no filter, so whenever he wants the truth from an employee you're always the one he asks first because hes certain that you will be honest (sometimes some money is involved but that's another story).

Has catch you sometimes overhearing others conversations in a dark corner, only for you to scare them after .He also enjoys scaring people so thats a hobbie you have in common.

Once for Halloween you proposed the boss to scare the living shit of everyone in the manor for the whole day, he liked that idea so you spent the rest of the day hearing the screams of the others. (+ Points for your malevolence 👍).

One time you were way to honest with him in a day in which he had worst mood than usual (not a good idea) so ONCE AGAIN he punished you taking away you ability to speak (has happened more times that you can count). When you tried to apologise to him, you had to get creative so you got a notebook and wrote this:

You: *writing* ... --- .-. .-. -.-- / -... --- ... ... 😔☹️

Black hat: what the fuck is this?!

You: *writing* remorse code :)

Black hat: now I'm even angrier than before. >:(

505 🐻:

Every time he sees you doing something shady you always give him a lollipop to bribe him (always works).

You're his favourite story teller, since you have a way with words every story you tell him is really fun.

You spent a whole morning doing sock puppets of yourself and other characters.

When you and Dementia make plans for you crimes outings, the both on you and 505 draw together maps and of course outcomes (with Dementia of course it ends up in really unrealistic outcomes but it's fun to imagine them)

You have tried to teach him how to make jokes and pranks, but his concept of a prank is stopping halfway and hugging the intended victim.

You ask him to make empty cakes so you can put a little bomb inside of it. Every time it explodes, everyone near that cake ends up dirty with sugar.

Your always take it easy with him so the pranks you pull on him all innocent and don't cause any kind of harm.

You're a little soft for that big guy, you will never admit it out loud though.

You: you're to good for this world

505: 😃

You: but that's ok, I'll be shitty enough for the both of us

omg can i get some flower lore like how did poppy start working at the bakery(maybe her mom somehow ties into it like she would take her there after something happened with her dad or it was just her mom’s favorite)? what are h everyday shoes? did they have pets growing up(i feel like poppy wouldn’t bc of her dad obvs)? are they allergic to anything? is h into like survival and stuff(i feel like he would so be into camping and all of that and he would force poppy to go with him bc he’s codependent and bc he would LOVE to fuck poppy like on a tree or something like that lol)? what’s h fav veggie? does poppy do arts and crafts(i like to believe she crochets mainly bc i crochet but i can totally see her making cute little hats for the little girl i forgot her name lol but like imagine pregnant flower making clothes for the baby😭😭 i KNOW h would be feral)?

i'm so sorry it's taken me so long to answer this i just really wanted to make sure i knew what i was talking abt for i said anything 😭

k so, the bakery was literally just her mum's favourite!! and i believe poppy mentioned that they did classes there too and bc her mum loooved their stuff and she also loved baking (n cooking she was literal like the perfect home maker anyway) she took poppy along when she was old enough and it kind of became their thing!! and then poppy got a weekend job there too, even tho she didn't really need one mainly after her mum died bc she hated being at home and hated being around her brother and dad plus it was a way to help her feel closer to her mum!! oh h's everyday shoes 🤔 that is such a GOOD question its literal a rat but for some reason i imagine he would be a boot guy, but they'd probably be that nasty ass pair of dark brown suede boots that rl h used to wear a lot, and they'd be so beat up and yuck bc flower h does know not or care or realise that you have to look after suede and not get it wet lmaooo omg could you IMAGINE flower h as a prepper bc honestly? i can and like he would be soooo funny bc he hasn't had a logical thought in his entire life and yet he's worrying abt the end of the world and has all these plans in case him n poppy aren't together and how to get across london to each other and where to meet etc, also i think he unironically LOVES bear grylls and all of his stupid survivor shows and yes he loves camping which blows poppy's mind bc she's like...this man loves camping? THIS man who can't be without his xbox longer than a day loves the outdoors? lol ok and yes ofc you're right bestie flower h would be FERAL for fucking poppy outdoors, in a tent, against a tree, just on the ground, you name it he's into it and he'd be so yuck going on about it being natural and he'd have to fuck her on her knees bc that's how it happens in nature and poppy would literally be like..........ok!

flower h has never eaten a vegetable in life next question (he doesn't like asparagus)

poppy paints! it doesn't really get mentioned in bloom but she does it a couple of times in flower and she's a very good drawer/painter!! but you're also right i could see her doing some kind of needle work crafts too, i feel like she'd TRY to crochet and immediately suck at it and we all know poppy is a if im not good at it immediately then im not interested kind of gal so she'd give up, i could see maybe her being into embroidery and she'd make everyone a little round hanging embroidery hoop for christmas or something, i could also see her getting into diy candles for a hot min like where you heat and melt n shape tapered candles into fun shapes, i feel like that would be her thing too until she inevitably gets bored haha

and yes of course bestie, you are SOOOOO right flower h would go feral for a pregnant poppy, like not even in the same way bambi h is insane about that kind stuff but his is in a more disgusting feral way and ofc he would be OBSESSED with a little baby poppy like imagine him being a girl dad too and he would be SO in love with this tiny little creature that looks exactly like his wife and he just vows to be the best dad ever and be the dad to their baby that poppy unfortunately never got

danny phantom season 2, ep 12-16 thoughts! these episodes, in comparison to the first 10 or so, felt way more laid back and low-stakes, which I appreciate sometimes. I didn't appreciate how lazy jack's halfa design was in masters of time, it made me so annoyed I redesigned it. 👎🏻 u_u

see prev episode thoughts in this tag <3

-'picking a fight with me and my upgraded form!' 'you upgraded to a mullet?' DANNNNY. YOU CANT SAY THAT TO TECHNUS. YOUVE HAD A MULLET TWICE NOW ('fun' split danny, and evil future danny BOTH HAD THEM). I HAVE THE RECEIPTS.

-danny seeing technus hurting valerie and yelling I AM GOING TO BREAK YOU IN HALF. SAMEEEE <3

-axion labs is now a part of vladco. FUCK YOU VLAD. hes not even really IN this episode, but just thought I'd throw out a nice fuck you anyway.

-'capable of blasting a single person into space in (2) minutes!' tucker. that would kill someone. i mean yeah they might get to space, but theres NO WAY THEY WOULDNT CATCH FIRE, OR THEIR ORGANS WOULDNT LIQUIFY BECAUSE OF THE STRAIN. THEY'D PROBABLY PASS OUT BEFORE THEN, BUT. ...no, okay, I get why vlad bought this company. this is RIGHT up his alley.

-danny KNOWS VAL DIDNT DO THIS, THAT SOMEONE STOLE THE SUIT. AND SPENDING ALL NIGHT CHATTING WITH HER. <3 and val is a 9TH DEGREE BLACKBELT?? danny's mom is, too!! omg and she hunts ghosts, his parents would love her. and her fav fruit is kumquat bc its a funny word. im so with danny val is amazing. I love her and I Do Not Want To Hear It From Sam.

-I knew danny wanted to be an astronaut, but the bowling tidbit is like. yes give me more useless info abt these characters, I love tiny details that make them feel more human, and im glad hes got hobbies aside from ghost stuff, we dont really see a lot of that!!! (I mean, we knew 'fun' danny from when he split himself in half liked bowling, so obv it makes sense he LIKES it, but hes very GOOD at it. so proud of him, bowling king) val calling him neil armstrong and them teasing each other. LOVE THAT.

-technus you are my favorite grandpa for setting this up. SAM WHY ARE YOU BEING SO CREEPY BE HAPPY FOR YOUR FRIEND!!! STOP SPYING ON THEM!!! who actually cares if technus did 'set them up' together, theyre having fun and enjoy each others company!!! 'you think the universe wants you two to be together?' 'i dunno, but maybe /I/ do!' EXACTLY DANNY!!! SOO TRUE.

-and valerie being happy sam said she wants to try and be happy for them and make room at the lunch table for them. and hugging sam over it. VAL NEEDS MORE FRIENDS.

-VAL GOING AFTER TECHNUS IN HER SUIT WITH (1) MILK, AND (1) TREE BRANCH AND KEYS!!!. I LOVE YOUUUU BEST GIRL. her new suit kicks ass

-dannys like 'HEY IM AN ASTRONAUT :D' AW. ...HES IN SPACE... the fact he's actually intending to give her the ring. with SAMS NAME ON IT?? IM CRINGING DANNY NO. YOU CANT DO THAT...thank god he didnt. thank god valerie cut it off and said they can just stay friends for now. tbh, they both have a lot on their plates!! they obv both still like each other...it can be a future thing!! when she knows about phantom! youre 14 theres no need to rush. I just want her to have friends and be happy :(

-...danny struggles to do (1) pull up. SAME. but all the ghost fighting in phantom form REALLY doesnt carry over at ALL? that sucks

-sam being as fit as she is, is not just a goth. shes a goth jock.

-honey I Shrank Our Kid, One of his Enemies, and his Bully: the episode

-dash's crush on phantom is So Obvious. fitness buddies :) watching them interact always makes me laugh. also, phantom, with PANTS. 'how many costume changes you gonna go through, what is this, vegas??' DASSH DJKSFHASKDF

-MADDIE GOING AFTER THE MOUSE WITH A BROOM, WHAT THE FUCK. AAAH. JUST BUY SOME KIND OF MOUSE TRAP.

-danny likes lime and vinegar chips. which sound very good.

-'our boy finally has the physical prowess of a 60 year old president!' ...poor danny LMAO

-'what's wrong with beauty pageants' oh tucker you sweet naïve child. what ISNT wrong with them. who approved this for a high school?? (I mean, yes. unfortunately child pageants exist, but...) also danny and tucker once again treating the pretty girls like objects. I need to meet the grown man who wrote this, I just want to talk...

-prince aragon's dragon form reminds me of maleficent (color scheme wise) which is always a bonus. considering the episode is called beauty marked, I feel like the sleeping beauty references are deliberate

-sam with the fake fangs. once again her accessories never miss. hate the 'not like other girls, girls who get sucked into this kind of thing are all shallow and all want to be carbon copies' bs tho.

-sam trying to be the Worst Bride, being rude as shit. DORA IS GOING TO GET KILLED. DID YOU MISS THE PART WHERE SHE SAID THE PRINCE WILL HAVE HER HEAD IF YOU ARENT THE IDEAL BRIDE. YOU /KNOW/ DANNY WILL COME SAVE YOU. JUST ACT CHILL UNTIL THEN. even if you were doing fine to get him to take off the crown, consider maybe not letting his poor sister get punished also?? sure, she could also take off the crown and has dragon powers, but did you know that for sure?? dora didnt even really realize it until you guys talked!! (or at least, she was scared to stand up to him. you had no guarantee she would...) but. good for dora. ANOTHER friendly ghost to add to the List :)

-tucker is so under appreciated in his time. if he was doing a tech-based campaign today he'd have a better shot. people in 2004 had NO IDEA how much tech would be a part of our day-to-day lives...altho. tbh if you're going to be running for student council president, maybe you should..focus on things to actually improve the school? since he's going for a tech angle, he could say like, he would be running fundraisers for the schools computers to be upgraded, etc? we've already SEEN he can be good at money-making entrepreneur type stuff!!

-oh my god wait. this episode is JUST YUGIOH?????! A REBORN PHAROH USING A TEENAGER AS A VESSEL?? YESSSSSS

-tucker using his new minion to feed him grapes and carry him. AND LOCUSTS ONTO THE BULLIES. I love how when he's possessed, he gains winged eyeliner.

-this episode is giving me big 'plankton makes everyone in bikini bottom his slaves and build monuments of him from the spongebob movie' vibes. and the pharaoh has a traitor who works for him? VERY big yugioh vibes. aknadin confirmed

-I like that danny is still completely exhausted after using ghostly wail. (still patiently waiting on him to get duplication)

-LOVE the fenton's 80s outfits. I get hes 14 and embarrassed by everything they do because theyre his parents, but. cmon, this is one objectively cool thing theyve done. love 80s fashion.

-...was vlad just standing on that streetlight waiting for danny to come out? how'd he know they'd be coming out the back? how long has he been up there???

-oh, wait, his ecto-acne has flareups? that SUCKS. danny was...well I dont want to say he was LUCKY HE HALF-DIED, but he was lucky his was pretty instant (I'm assuming that had to do with the power/scale of the portals being different?) I remember in the ep we met him, vlad made a point of saying he was stuck in a hospital for a long time, so. that really actually sucks and I feel bad. not that it excuses anything he's done...but like. it does suck.

-vlad being so sure danny wouldnt help him he made it somehow contagious to his friends to make sure he'd get help? danny is a nice boy, he wouldve helped if it was anyone else. the only reason he wouldn't have is because of the shit vlad did to him, on purpose. vlad 100% dug his own grave by being the biggest asshole, so it is very hard to feel bad for him.

-clockwork is back!!! and making danny learn lessons The Hard Way. Uhhh, okay. I kind of get Danny’s logic, that time traveling this far back would prevent vlad from becoming a halfa also, ergo no arch nemesis or ectoacne to worry about. But the fact that was basically the first solution Danny came up with to solve this problem is actually so funny. It’s so extreme

-APPRICIATION FOR THESE 80S LESBIAN BG CHARACTERS.

-vlad telling maddie in the lab (in the 80s) he has something he's wanted to tell her 'for a long time'...how long have they known each other? I assumed they met in college, since jack always calls vlad his college buddy/roommate, so jack and vlad for sure met in college, but did vlad know maddie longer? thats surprising if so. Tho we don’t know what year of college they’re in so they could mean they met as freshmen and a few years have past…speaking of maddie shes crushing the 80s look.

-vlad blames jack, but. maybe dont stick your face 2 inches from the portal??! THIS FEELS LIKE LAB SAFETY BASICS. IF SOMETHING HAS POTENTIAL TO BE DANGEROUS, DONT GET NEAR IT. WITH YOUR FACE UNPROTECTED IN ANY WAY. (altho jack didnt really give a Big Warning besides screaming BONZAI. so. also that, but cmon.) also, they need gloves, goggles, and to pull all of their hair back tbh. but fuck lab safety, I guess!

-cryyyyinnng at how lazy they were with jack's ghost form design, its just plasmius' design on jack!!! you couldve given him his own design!!

-there. I did that in about 10 minutes and its somehow less lazy than what made it into the show. embarrassing! better yet, I think the episode would've been better if maddie would've gotten the ectoacne. or maybe its just me, wanting to see her design! anyway. I'm sure people have already done redesigns of them both as halfas. I have to go look after I finish this watch through. Also mildly frustrated jacks resentment and bitterness is basically also a copy paste of vlads backstory. They’re different characters, I really don’t think jack would stew in bitterness and jealousy the same way vlad would!! I also don’t think he’d give up after one time of trying to hunt ghosts and getting laughed at. Our canon timeline says different…I dunno, I get it was for laughs, but I’m annoyed because the POTENTIAL this plot has…

-did vlad really wear a stupid cheese hat to his wedding. ok actually that kinda rules. and the cheese door knocker. the dairy-only buffet table. vlad still got rich, just on being the New Dairy King. (Assuming that means he owns a lot of dairy businesses?) ok! this actually is great. hope maddie isn't lactose intolerant!

-'no matter how hard I tried, I could never get rid of my ghost half, the half I knew Maddie could never accept' ohh, ouch, what a horrible thing to say to her HALF GHOST SON. 'YOUR MOM WILL NEVER ACCEPT YOU' BASICALLY.

-maddie strapping danny to the table with a lazer pointed at him in a secret lab she keeps from vlad that she makes a point of saying is sound proof so he can scream all he wants...CHRIST. DANNYS POOR PYSCHE.

-also, not to feel bad for alternate vlad (because, he did lie to maddie saying jack blames her and never wants to see her again...) but. being married to a woman 20+ years and she immediately goes back to jack? if she didnt love vlad and feels like she had to hide shit from him, and says she wasted her best years with him, WHY MARRY HIM. it feels like leading him on!!! cannot believe im feeling bad for vlad, but. this alternate timeline vlad is significantly Less Horrible than Our Vlad. did she not think she'd get funding for her ghost stuff? (which, fair assumption since they're considered 'ghost fanatics/nuts in canon...but...) why did she think jack or vlad would be her ONLY OPTIONS? be like your sister. be single. Actually, this au could’ve been really interesting if after the accident, vlad lied to her and said jack never wanted to see her again, but she stays single. Imagine how much that would bug vlad… like, in her mind, it was never a competition it was jack or no one type situation…

-danny being like 'leave him ALONE' this jack is a HOMEWRECKER, DANNY. let them go to court and settle this at the least. ...or just throw vlad into the portal. (100% human, defenseless vlad) CHRIST, MADDIE THATS BRUTAL. THATS MURDER.

-danny seeing his mom immediately accepting him and his dad being half ghosts in this universe, if I was him this would be a great sign that his universe's maddie would also.

-*maddie voice* "clockwork will help!" *2 seconds later, with clockwork* "I will Not Help." TOUGH LOVE KING. YES LET DANNY SEE THE SODA HIMSELF AND DEVOLP BETTER OBSERVATION SKILLS.

-when clockwork ""reset time to the way it was"" just before danny "meddled"" ...did he really erase a whole alternate timeline? ...damn. because maddie and danny both called it an alternate timeline by name, it splitting when the college incident went different, so it wouldnt have really mattered if he reset it, right. like because danny's timeline is on a different stream? why didnt clockwork just. show danny a replay and not Reset That Timeline. wh...I wonder how many people that Erased From Existence. Anyway! once again stating clockwork is casually terrifying!

Chi-Town Shenanigans

Part 3

This is a part of a TRR A/U called Cordonians Gone Wild, a collaborative effort by @ao719 @leelee10898 @speedyoperarascalparty and yours truly. Catch up HERE.

Summary: The CGW crew heads to Chicago for a fun long weekend.

Rating: NSFW, mature and very bad decisions.

The next morning, everyone met downstairs for breakfast. Pam and Drake were the last to arrive, Drake unable to meet anyone's eye. “Good meow-ning, Drakey!” Genevieve said giggling. Pam glared at her and mouthed, “Stop!” Anitah perked up when she heard Genevieve teasing Drake, “Let's make this a game. Whoever says ‘meow’ the most today wins.”

Genevieve laughed, “I don't even care what the stakes are, I'm in.” The two women huddled their heads together, Drake eyed them suspiciously. Anitah looked up, “Hey, Drake, can you call my phone? I can't find it.” Drake picked up his phone and dialed her number. The phone started playing the Meow Mix jingle. The group turned to the ringing phone and burst out laughing. “Ha ha, very funny, guys,” Drake said rolling his eyes. Even Pam had to cover her mouth to prevent a laugh from escaping.

The group was going to a cubs game later that day, and they were meeting Julian and Thomas who had box seats for the game. Since it was unseasonably warm, Pam and Genevieve dressed in Cubs tank tops while Anitah came down in wearing a Yankees tank top and baseball hat. Alicia showed up wearing a Phillies jersey which made her three friends boo at her. A short time later, the men came down, Rashad and Drake wearing cubs jerseys, Liam in a Yankees jersey and Leo in a Phillies jersey. Leo looked at the others confused and said, “Wait, who’s playing? Only two teams play right?”

Alicia walked up to him and patted him on the head, “You're so pretty.” He smiled at her. “Our team isn't playing today. But we aren't wearing that garbage,” she added. The three girls rolled their eyes, Anitah smack talked right back, “You know what's garbage? The entire Phillies organization.” Anitah smirked knowing she struck a nerve. Leo looked at the ladies staring dagger at each other and shook his head, “I'm going to get my ass kicked today, aren't I? Maybe I should change.” After seeing the look on Alicia's face, he snapped his mouth shut and stayed quiet.

They arrived at the ballpark, walked up to the Legends suite and were greeted by Thomas and Julian. Once inside, the guys hit the bar for some drinks and the ladies went to the seats at the front of the box. Genevieve felt a tap on her shoulder and a deep voice whispered in her ear, “Hey, beautiful.” She froze and turned around, “Hey, Christian. I…I…I didn't know you'd be here…” She looked past him and saw Rashad glaring at Christian’s back. “When Thomas told me you were here, I wanted to see you…” he leaned down to kiss her, and she stopped him. “I'm sorry, I can't. I have a boyfriend.”

Rashad walked up and wrapped his arm around her waist. “Christian, this is my boyfriend, Rashad. Rashad, this is...erm...Christian.” She couldn't look at either man. “I remember,” Rashad said through gritted teeth. Christian extended his hand, and Rashad reluctantly shook it, “Oh that's right, you came to St. Tropez with the rest of the guys. You slept in the room next to us, didn't you?” Christian said with a smirk. Genevieve closed her eyes and could feel her cheeks burning. After a few awkward moments, Christian said, “Well it's good to see you. You're still as beautiful as the last time we were together in June.” He winked at her and she could feel Rashad tensing up next to her.

Genevieve turned to him, “I didn't know he was going to be here.” He shook his head, “It's fine. It was before we were together. I just don't like how he looks at you, like he's undressing you with his eyes.” She pressed a soft kiss to his lips, and he deepened it. She whispered in his ear, “I love you, Rashad.” He smiled and relaxed, “I love you too.”

Pam walked up to the buffet and started putting food on her plate. “Pam Malinski? Is that you?” She turned around and her mouth fell open in shock, “Paul, what are you doing here?” She put her plate down and pulled him into a hug. “I work with Julian and he invited me to come to the game. It's great to see you.” She waved Drake over and said, “Drake, this is my friend Paul. Paul, this is my fiancé, Drake.” Drake shook Paul's hand and Paul said, “We were more than friends, wouldn't you say, honey bunny?” Drake arched an eyebrow and looked at Pam. Her face flushed, “Well we dated briefly, but we were friends more than anything.” Julian called Paul over to him. “Well it was nice to meet you, Drake. Pam, keep in touch, ok?”

“Honey bunny?” Drake said eyeing Pam. “He used to call me that after we watched Pulp Fiction a few times. It's a stupid nickname. You're not upset are you, baby?” Drake plastered a fake smile on his face, “Of course not. This was a long time ago, right?” Pam nodded, “It was a really long time ago.” Drake looked over at Paul who was staring at Pam with a wide grin on his face. Drake narrowed his eyes at him, and Paul quickly looked away after he saw the scowl on Drake’s face. “So how long did you two date exactly?” Drake asked. Pam shrugged, “We dated in high school, a little in college and then briefly again after college.” Drake choked on his drink, “You dated him three different times?”

Pam rolled her eyes, “But not very long each time. I really saw him more as a friend. So we decided to just be friends.” Drake looked in Paul’s direction and noticed he was staring again. “Seems like he wants to be more than friends, Pam.” She turned to him, “Are you jealous, Drake?” He quickly fixed his face into a pained smile, “No!”

Drake and Rashad joined Liam and Leo at the bar. They looked back at the girls who were watching the game talking shit to each other. Christian sat in the seat next to Genevieve, and Paul sat in the seat behind Pam. Drake and Rashad seethed watching the two men hitting on their women. Rashad threw back his drink and asked for another, Drake doing the same. Rashad nudged Drake's arm, "Should we go over there?" His jaw clenched. Drake shook his head, “No, I trust Pam. I just don't like that guy.” His eyes never leaving his fiancée. Rashad nodded in agreement, “You’re right…I don't trust him for a second.” Both men throwing back drink after drink watching the other men shamelessly flirting with Pam and Genevieve.

All of a sudden, Christian moved his arm and placed it over the back of Genevieve’s seat. Paul leaned forward close to Pam’s face. Both men slammed down their glasses and stood up walking over to the seats. Rashad tapped Christian on the shoulder, “Excuse me, I’d like to sit next to my girlfriend.” He glared at him, daring Christian to challenge him. Christian smirked, “I don't think she minds sitting next to me though.” Rashad grabbed him by the back of the shirt and lifted him up from his seat, “Well I do.” Christian held up his arms and backed away quickly. Genevieve looked up at Rashad and bit her lip. Once he sat down, she whispered, “That was so sexy.” She grabbed him by the front of his shirt and pulled him into a deep kiss.

Drake stood behind Paul and cleared his throat. Paul straightened up in his seat, then turned around looking at him. Drake said in a low tone, “I'm going to ask you nicely, this time, to back away from my fiancée. Next time...there won't be a next time, will there, Paul?” He shot up from his seat and walked back to the bar. Pam stood up and grabbed Drake’s arm pulling him towards the bathroom.

Once Pam and Drake rejoined the group, it was the 6th inning. They had six outs before the ballpark stopped serving alcohol. “Shots!” Alicia yelled. The bartender lined up shots of whiskey, everyone held their glasses up and took their shots. At the bottom of the 9th inning, the girls sat back down in the seats. The game was tied 1-1 and the Cubs were down to their last out. The ladies started volleying insults back and forth.

“You know what Cubs stands for? Completely useless by September,” Anitah said laughing. The guys snickered.

“What's the difference between a cactus and the Yankees dugout?” Genevieve asked Pam who started giggling. “On a cactus, the pricks are on the outside.” The boys looked at each other chuckling.

Anitah rolled her eyes, “Hey Alicia, what's the difference between the Philadelphia Phillies and the Chicago Cubs? The last Phillies World Series team picture isn't in black and white.”

The men turned their heads towards Pam as she said, “Hey Gen, What do you call 40 millionaires around a TV watching the World Series? The New York Yankees.”

“What is the difference between a bucket of shit and an Chicago Cubs fan? The bucket.” The men now looking at Anitah with concerned faces.

All heads turned towards Genevieve, "What do the New York Yankees and possums have in common? Both play dead at home and get killed on the road!"

Anitah yelled, “Hey Pam, rather than wasting money on that replica hat, just strap a large rubber dildo to your head. EVERYONE will know who you support.”

Alicia stood up and pulled off both Pam’s and Anitah’s hats, “You know what? Both of your teams suck!” She threw the hats out of the box into the crowd below. All of the guys froze with their mouths open looking at each other. The girls burst out laughing. “Dammit, I love that hat!” Anitah said between giggles.

The crowd erupted in cheers at the sound of the bat hitting the ball in its sweet spot. Anthony Rizzo scored the game winning homerun. “In your face, Anitah!” Pam and Genevieve yelled as they stood up and cheered.

After the game ended, they said goodbye to Thomas and Julian. Christian walked up to Genevieve and said, “Hey, if things don't work out with the boyfriend, give me a call.” He tried to pull her into a hug, but Rashad walked up and pulled one of his hands into a bone crushing handshake, “Nice to see you again, Chris. We're leaving now.” He wrapped his arm around Genevieve and they walked out together. She giggled, “I should make you jealous more often.” He smirked, “Oh, you'll pay for that later.” She smiled, “I can't wait.” He stopped walking and pulled her into a heated kiss. Drake looked towards Paul’s direction. He looked like he wanted to talk to Pam, but thought better of it when he met Drake’s eye.

“Let's go to John Barleycorn!” Pam said. They walked the short distance and they all hit the bar, Leo ordering shots. Pam went to the jukebox and picked a few songs, the first one started playing.

Well, I walk into the room

Passing out hundred dollar bills

And it kills, and it thrills, like the horns on my silverado grill

And I buy the bar double round the crown

And everybody's getting down

An' this town, ain't never gonna be the same

“I love this song!” Genevieve yelled, and the ladies started their own dance party singing along, Save a horse, ride a cowboy. The drinks flowed freely and as the night went on, everyone got drunker and drunker. Leo joined Alicia on the dance floor and they immediately started making out. He pinned her up against the wall, dry humping her not caring who was watching. Anitah and Genevieve kept dancing and Anitah yelled, “Why is it so hot in here?” She started lifting her shirt over her head and Liam bolted towards her, “My love, what are you doing? Keep your shirt on.” He pulled her shirt back down and Anitah smacked his hand, “My team lost, they suck! I don't want to wear this stupid shirt!” She tried to pull her shirt over her head again.

Pam sat down next to Drake at the bar and started petting his head, “Baby, I looovvvve you! You're such a good kitty, soft kitty.” Drake’s face turned bright red, “Ok, Pam. I love you too, but shh, ok?” Pam giggled, “But I love you my sweet kitty cat! Mrow, meow. Meeeooowwww.” Drake covered her mouth trying to muffle the noises coming out of it.

Genevieve started walking towards Rashad at the bar and tripped over her own feet. She fell on the floor laughing. While lying on the floor, she could hear Pam’s meows getting louder and louder, Drake desperately trying to quiet her. Finally he yelled, “WE ARE DONE!” He picked Pam up and threw her over his shoulder. Rashad picked Genevieve up from the floor bridal style. Liam pulled Anitah by the arm, Leo and Alicia stumbled out the door, lips still locked together.

Once outside, Genevieve pulled out her phone and called a cab, requesting a vehicle large enough for them to ride together. After they got into the minivan, they realized that there wasn't enough room for everyone, so Anitah sat on Liam's lap in the middle seat next to Leo and Alicia. Pam and Drake were sitting in the far rear seat, and Genevieve sat on Rashad’s lap next to them. Maxwell sat in the front seat trying to change the radio station, the cab driver giving him the side eye. On the ride back to the hotel, Alicia yelled, “I want McDonalds! Stop at McDonald's!” The cabbie groaned and pulled into the drive thru. Alicia tapped the driver on the shoulder, “I want chicken nuggets.” He looked back at her and rolled down the window not saying a word. Anitah hung out of the window, “Hi! I'm the Queen of Gordon and I would like a taco please.”

“Ma'am, this is McDonalds.”

“Ok ok, I’d like a McTaco.” Everyone in the car burst out laughing. Liam cracked up saying, “Love, I think you need to switch to water.” The employee and cab driver both sounded equally annoyed, “Ma'am, we don't have tacos. This is McDonalds.” Anitah giggled, “Ok then I'll have chicken nuggets…”

“How many chicken nuggets, ma'am?” The employee could no longer hold back the irritation in his voice.

“I want all of the chicken nuggets…” she started laughing hard. Each person in the car tried to call out their orders and Anitah shook her head, “and ten hamburger happy meals. Oh! And a McWater please. You have that right?”

“They’re going to spit in our food!” Pam said crying from laughing. The relieved cab driver finally dropped them off at the hotel. They filed into Liam and Anitah’s suite happily opening their food. “What the fuck is this, Anitah? We couldn't even get cheese?” Drake said biting into his hamburger. Alicia pulled out the toy from the box, “Hello Kitty! She's so cute!” At the same time everyone looked at each other and yelled, “MEEEOOOWWW!” They doubled over laughing hysterically. Drake grumbled, “Fuck all of you!”

The next morning, everyone woke up severely hungover. Everyone had passed out in Anitah and Liam’s hotel room. Most of them fell asleep on the floor, fully clothed still wearing their shoes. Anitah sat up in bed and started laughing. She grabbed her phone and snapped a picture. In the middle of the bed were the Rhys brothers cuddling each other. Leo's arms wrapped around Liam's waist and Liam's head cuddled into Leo's neck. “Oh this is too good!” Maxwell said giggling. He took his own picture, “it's going into the scrapbook.” Liam and Leo woke up staring at each other with wide eyes. “What the fuck, Liam!” They both scrambled away from each other while everyone laughed at them.
