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.]

Not all people. Some are at least a little more...open than others, though.

[is2g]

Yeah?

Is there someone already feelin' extra friendly?

[ squints. he has seen fukuda going around.... ]

[hashtagafreakingghost]

Perhaps. [ Pointed eyes @ Dorothy and Yeager. ] Maybe just a little outside the friend-zone, possibly?

[ 👁 👁 ]

Well, would ya look at that. It does look like somethin' a bit friendlier than what'd ya do with "just" friends.

[hashtagafreakingghost]

Maybe it's nothing! But, you know. Maybe it's not. This is the kind of stuff you see when you wallflower it up.

The perks of being part of the background.

[ he chuckles. ]

Guess that means we just gotta keep watchin' and see where things go.

[hashtagafreakingghost]

I think there's a book about that...

[is2g]

A book about what?

[hashtagafreakingghost]

About the perks of being...oh, it's on the tip of my tongue...

[is2g]

Perks of being...a people watcher?

[ do you think he knows books?? but he's giving it his best. ]

[hashtagafreakingghost]

Something like that... Oh well. I must not have liked it very much if I can't remember, right?

[ or maybe it's the weed. ]
