Holiday parties

[x-copycat.livejournal.com]

So, one Jumbo Carnation (why, yes, he claims that is his legal name, why do you ask?) has come in looking to hire us in a security capacity.

He is throwing three parties for the holidays. The first is on the 21st, the second on the 23rd and the third on New Year's Eve. He's apparently pretty high profile (he's a fashion designer of some sort? Where is Adrienne when I need to know these things?) and is worried someone may decide that his party is worth targeting to take out some mutants and make a statement by some anti-mutant hatemonger. As such, he wants mutant security to work his parties.

I'm sure you guys have plans for at least part of the holidays but if you can/will work any of the parties let me know. I've already begun calling around the other security agencies to see if they have anyone they can recommend so I can get up a crew of about six in total, including us. Oddly enough, Fred Duke's name came up so I'm going to head over to the mansion to see if he's interested in taking the job.

If they get too close, no. If they are causing trouble and attempting to instigate fights with you or others, yes. I have a clause wherein should any of us be struck we have permission to defend ourselves fully. I made sure he understood what fully meant. We're covered. I have no problem with dangling obnoxious people out windows, but do try to clear it with me first aye?

Apparently the entire neighborhood has yet to realize I've all the wrong plumbing for your preference. I shall always think of you as Mr. Carlysle, of course. ;)

DEFENESTRATION RULES!

[x-copycat.livejournal.com]

You come up with this after citing "snakey" and "snakeish' to me in a text message? How do they allow you to teach English?!

Defenestration is from History! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defenestrations_of_Prague

Ah, that explains it all

Why do I have this feeling that I'm being subjected to sarcasm?

[x-copycat.livejournal.com]

Would I be sarcastic?

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

Of course not! Doesn't your nose grow if you're sarcastic or something? We wouldn't want that to happen, you have such a nice nose!

[x-copycat.livejournal.com]

It's entirely possible my nose only grows if I go without being sarcastic for too long. That's something to ponder.

Quoi?

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

It's the proper term for throwing someone out of a window!

[x-quebecois.livejournal.com]

Merci, Adrienne. I believe I like this word.

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

Isn't it great? Why say you're throwing someone out a window when you can say you're defenestrating them!

[x-quebecois.livejournal.com]

Excellent. I will check with you on the little ear pieces before I dangle people from windows.

Oui, of course. It will always be my favourite alias.

[x-copycat.livejournal.com]

Perfect.

I feel the need to get you a fake ID with the name. And perhaps an incredibly Irish given name with Jean-Paul listed as the middle name.

[x-quebecois.livejournal.com]

So that when I open my mouth everyone is confused? This would be funny, at least.

[x-copycat.livejournal.com]

We would be amused, which is the only thing that really matters in this scenario.

[x-quebecois.livejournal.com]

Oui, this is true. If you would like to find me a fake ID, you are more than welcome. The amusement alone, as you say, would be worth it.

[x-copycat.livejournal.com]

You realize this means we'll have to go somewhere that will require seeing your ID to have our fun once I obtain the necessary credentials, aye?

[x-quebecois.livejournal.com]

You say this as though you think I will mind.

[x-copycat.livejournal.com]

Of course, it will be a terrible inconvenience for you. Such an imposition!
