Tuesday
Alamo Day!

True, it wasn't a religious holiday. But it was a great excuse to ressurrect the cowboy costume from Halloween and run around with Chrono in an epic Nerf gun battle around the church. And that's what really mattered, after all.

"It's Lent," Rosette pouted as she blocked each one with her hand and one with her gun. "And I gave up alcohol."

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

John stopped. "You poor, poor thing. When can you get back on the wagon?"

[nun-better.livejournal.com]

Rosette drew in a deep breath. "Come Easter, we gotta have the biggest kegger ever. Except I don't really like beer, but a sucking the still dry in the back of Sparky's for old time's sake sounds nice."

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

John's face sobered up. "Agatha...." His voice dropped. "Agatha dismantled the still."

[nun-better.livejournal.com]

Rosette's jaw dropped. "She what?"

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

"I know! I've got stockpiles, but... I'll have to build anew. Not that I mind, much. I have changes I need to make, but didn't because it was working, and it wasn't worth it to shut it down just to tweak things, and if I put it in the root cellar, it might help with everything. I'm worried about the rain, though, so I might have to insulate it." John abruptly stopped babbling.

Rosette nodded and gave little "uh-huh"s to show that she was listening, really. "If you need one of the holy water tanks for a base, you can have one."

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

"Actually, that'll help. And I'd need someone to help with the work. Long hours, sweaty goodness, just to be paid in booze. KNow anyone?"

[nun-better.livejournal.com]

"Hmmmm," Rosette tapped her chin thoughtfully. "I might. She's got a whole basement that doesn't get a lot of use, too, if storage is a problem..."

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

"That could be good. It might be a good idea to build multiple redundancies, or be able to expand into, say, wine. For special occasions."

[nun-better.livejournal.com]

"Ooooh!" Rosette's eyes brightened a bit. "Wine! I like that idea..."

And then, with a wistful sigh, she realized something. "We really gotta stop talking about this, because you're really making me thirsty here."

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

"Sorry about that. So... when's Easter, anyways? Cuz we'll have a hell of a celebration!"

[nun-better.livejournal.com]

"April Eighth!" Rosette said, with a burst of energy to show that she couldn't freakin' wait, either.

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

"AWESOME! So. Keggar? Party? Dancing? Wait. Is dancing allowed in a church?" Not, y'know, that a keggaaar isn't.

[nun-better.livejournal.com]

Rosette nodded with enthusiasm. "Dancing is definately allowed in a church."

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

"Okay. Good. Drunken dancing allowed at church. Or is that sober dancing? What about dirty dancing? Um. WHat I mean is." He clears his throat. "Rosette, will you dance with me?"

[nun-better.livejournal.com]

Rosette snorted. "Right now?"

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

"No. Yes. Maybe. Um. Remember Monday? I talked to my preacher-dude, and asked for some advice. And stuff. And..." John waved his hand around, as if to include the church. "Logistics."

[nun-better.livejournal.com]

Rosette's head moved around to follow both John's jumping words and his waving hand. "I...don't...follow....?"

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

"Rosette... the girl that I asked about? Short Term? If she liked me? Was you." THere may have been a bit of blushing. And? THe dart still on his forehead may have quivered. Cutely.

[nun-better.livejournal.com]

Rosette blinked at John a few times. And smiled a little lopsidedly as she snorted a little and asked, "...Really?"

She might have been a victim of blushing, too.

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

"No, I was speaking of some other batshitly insane well-stackedarmed nun which is where the logistics come in." His grin may have been not-straight as well.

[nun-better.livejournal.com]

"Never in that confession did you mention a nun!" Biting her lip, Rosette grinned a little, ducked her head. "If you were trying to drop a hint, John, that would have been a good one."

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

"I said there were long-term logistical problems!" he flailed and smiled.

[nun-better.livejournal.com]

"Well, yeah, but you also said you didn't care about long-term," Rosette said, smiling a little as she looked at him, thinking there was too much distance between them right now and wondering how best to close it. "I...really don't care about long-term, either..."
