Party Rock Anthem only it's played on kazoos

[Oscar is a practiced master at Coping (tm) in the face of things he would prefer not to address in any sort of healthy or rational manner. After the events of yesterday, he's somehow getting the feeling that he isn't the only one, which means that in his mind there is only one thing to do: this translates to yet another Walmart booze heist (even larger than the original), a few side trips to amass snacks because RIP his kitchen, and some haphazardly erected decorations in one of the spare rooms to try to at least give off something of a celebratory atmosphere... but let's be real here, this is just Misery x CPR x Reese's Puffs + alcohol.

Sunday morning will find handwritten notes tucked under everyone's doors inviting them to a party that evening, snacks and drinks (that particular word underlined a couple of times, just in case people didn't pick up on the meaning of "party") provided gratis.

There's alcohol, there's soda for the minors, there's plenty of junk food to eat, and there are a whole bunch of other people who are also Going Through It. What better recipe for a party could you ask for?

... don't answer that.]

[Joker isn't usually one to drown his sorrows in drink, but he's still here, at the party, sipping on something strong...

That he immediately chokes on once Oscar brings up Hot or Not.]


I beg your pardon?

[what the FUCK do you MEAN telling people they're attractive?]

[Suffer, Victorian.]

Hmm... 70 points objectively but not so much to my tastes.

Objectively?

[Oh, his voice has gone so high pitched.]

Th-that's way too high, isn't it...?
holeful: (me; I have all these fucking markers.)

[personal profile] holeful 2025-02-24 02:36 am (UTC)(link)
No, you're very cute! I'm just not especially into twinks.

[FUKUDA.]

guffawsungraciously: kind of a neutral dutch angle? it's frowny. i'm bad at describing expressions (hey hendrik look at me.)

...

Good enough, I suppose. I do not feel particularly strongly about you.

[ They're looking thoughtful here. ]

I don't know you well and your aesthetics aren't quite exactly to my preferences.

[See, this is a reasonable(?) answer that makes sense to Joker...]

Understandable.

[People shouldn't find him attractive! That's just facts.]

[After making a noise akin to a tea kettle, he manages to calm down a bit.]

N-no, that's not right...

[...Hmm. Dorothy thinks about this briefly, but...]

...I think you're a little too adorable for me personally, but I would at least rate you a 6/10.

[Joker flinches at that, of all things, his brows knitting together.]

Oh. Um, that's... I can't, not really?

[He pushes his cheek up with thin fingers, but he drops his hands and looks down, away from Oscar.]

My face can't really... do something like that, on it's own. That's why I was known as the Weeping Clown, after all.
