Groovy Tunes, Monday

[myfaireggsy.livejournal.com]

It was Eggsy's first day of employmentat the shop today. That translated to spending the bit of the morning where he wasnt at class, picking through the music selection.

And from there, the bass was booming and hearing loss was assured. All in all, it was pretty great for him.

The shop was open and blaring music. Sorry, neighbors.

Dante had a stereo now, but only one CD, and during class today he'd realized that was just not going to do. It was also a better thing to focus on than the fact the demons could still drag him back at any point.

Of course, that purpose was momentarily forgotten the moment he stepped into the store. "Hey, English Dick!" he called merrily. "What're you blasting?"

[myfaireggsy.livejournal.com]

"Lovely song called 'Go fuck yourself'," Eggsy shot back. Because he was a charmer.

[rebelseekspizza]

"By which band?" Dante asked, smirking. "I know a couple with that title. Gotta be specific."

[myfaireggsy.livejournal.com]

"Color me shock 'bout that, bruv," Eggsy replied. "Dizee Rascal."

[rebelseekspizza]

Dante wandered up to the counter and dropped his arm on it, leaning into it. "I don't think you're playing it loud enough," he said.

There were neighbors he probably hadn't scandalized yet down the street! That couldn't stand, Eggsy.

[myfaireggsy.livejournal.com]

He could switch it to worse song. Oh, he really could. "That right."

[rebelseekspizza]

"Couldn't understand his vocals while the door was closed," Dante said. "That's tragic."

The narrative would try to tell Dante not to encourage this, lest someone's eardrums burst, but let's face it, it's not like he'd listen.

[myfaireggsy.livejournal.com]

Well, he was talking to the guy who responded to 'don't set things on fire' with a bonfire.

"Yeah, real tragedy," Eggsy replied dryly. "You might wanna get that checked. Shame when your senses go.

[rebelseekspizza]

And now Dante was leaning over the counter. "You got volume controls in here?"

[myfaireggsy.livejournal.com]

"The fuck do you think you're doin'?"

[rebelseekspizza]

"Checking out your audio set-up," Dante said cheerfully. "What the fuck does it look like?"

Immovable object, meet unstoppable force.

[myfaireggsy.livejournal.com]

"None of your fucking business, that's what it looks like." This would end badly for all involved.

[rebelseekspizza]

Probably just Eggsy. Unless he decided to set the place on fire to spite two people. Or the cops showed up.

Dante leaned just slightly back. "Am I interrupting some kinda weird techno-fetish here?"

[myfaireggsy.livejournal.com]

...there were cops on island?

"Nah, bruv you're just bein' rude as fuck."

[rebelseekspizza]

"I came here to get some music," Dante said, shrugging lightly. "You're the one recommending the works of Go Fuck Yourself. I'm just checkin' it out."

[myfaireggsy.livejournal.com]

Eggsy rolled his eyes at that. "You're a right twat, aren't you. Not get enough love from mummy growing up or something?"

[rebelseekspizza]

"I dunno," Dante said. "Did you?"

[myfaireggsy.livejournal.com]

Eggsy gave that all the consideration it deserved. "That the best you got?"

[rebelseekspizza]

"You're not giving me your A-game," Dante said, "Why should I get up to bat?"

[myfaireggsy.livejournal.com]

"....right," Eggsy drawled, pushing away from the counter to get Dante the CD he apparently wanted.

[rebelseekspizza]

Dante cast a glance in his direction, then pushed off the counter himself, attracted suddenly to a bunch of CDs with really over the top images of near-naked ladies and blood on the covers. "Blood and wings or blood and boobs?" he mused out loud.

[myfaireggsy.livejournal.com]

No. No metal would be played while Eggsy was there.

"Why it hafta be blood?" Give him a musical over that any day.

[rebelseekspizza]

"What, you don't think blood is sanguine?"

Admittedly, Dante had only read that word somewhere once and was completely butchering the pronounciation, but. Everything for a pun.

[myfaireggsy.livejournal.com]

Eggsy kept up his trend of knowing the high brow sort of words that would get his ass beat back home. "Bruv. That was awful. Just awful."

[rebelseekspizza]

"Aw, c'mon. It wasn't that bad."

Not that he was particularly invested in Eggsy's opinion, but it was always good to know your audience.

And then make awful puns at them.

[myfaireggsy.livejournal.com]

"A pun? Hafta disagree with you on that."

[rebelseekspizza]

Dante thought about it. Long enough even to find a cover with blood, boobs and wings on it. Score!

It was also electro-industrial, as it turned out. It was the little things. "What," he said, "Afraid you can't take the punishment?"

[myfaireggsy.livejournal.com]

Eggsy groaned in disgust, shoving the CD at him. Customer service was so his strong suit. "You sound like someone's creep uncle."

[rebelseekspizza]

Dante put blood-boobs-wings down on the counter next to it. "Hey, now. My puns are at least weird-second-cousin-worthy."

[myfaireggsy.livejournal.com]

"Keep tellin' yourself that."

[smilestopscars]

Ezra had been meaning to check up on his young ward. His fake sibling. His assigned attractive person. Whatever.

Not that that had anything really to do with how he ended up here today. That was really more down to his naturally curiosity when music was blaring. Seeing who was behind the counter was just a pleasant surprise.

"Ah, Eggsy! I see the island hasn't scared you off. That's good."

[myfaireggsy.livejournal.com]

"Even if it had, a plane ticket home ain't cheap," Eggsy said, leaning against the counter.

[smilestopscars]

Oh, hey. For once a thing Ezra couldn't suggest simple stealing as a solution to!

"And you don't think you can charm your way into getting one?"

... Well, there was still that.

[myfaireggsy.livejournal.com]

"And what kinda charming gets me an intercontinental flight, bruv?"

He didn't have a sugar daddy! That was later in life!

[smilestopscars]

Ezra shrugged a shoulder and smirked. "The skillful kind?"

He'd never tried, personally, but he believed he could give it a decent shot.

[myfaireggsy.livejournal.com]

"Don't think me mouth is that good."

[smilestopscars]

Sure, give Ezra a reason to turn his smirk all predatory.

"Oh, that's a shame."

[myfaireggsy.livejournal.com]

"Ain't much of a rentboy," Eggsy replied. Because that smirk deserved the comment.
