Skorpa's Home

 

"It's, um, cozy," Sebastian remarked dryly.

"Pssst hey Sebastian guess what?" ~Skorpa

"Chicken butt."

"Well that to but no seriously..... No one asked you" Skorpa whispered the last part before promptly flicking his nose.

"What is it with you and nose-flicking? This is, like, the second time," Sebastian said without thinking.

"Is it? Was I drunk last time?" Skorpa replied sort of snickering as he rested an arm on the others shoulder all to casually. "But quit complaining. Could be so much worse" he added with a rather wicked smirk.

"Uh, probably? You referred to...." Then Sebastian realized what he was about to say and trailed off. "Yeah, no, we were drunk. I'm sure you blacked out and forgot all about it. It was actually rather heartwarming, in context."

"Eeewwww that sounds to mushy for my liking. Stop speaking" Skorpa replied looking almost bored suddenly.

Sebastian cackled. "Who says I'm not just screwing with you?" he asked, removing the other's hand from his shoulder. "Seriously though, man, you clarified something for me that night. Good stuff. Why do you live in a truck though?"

"It's cheaper than getting a place and dealing with utilities and shit. Plus I actually fucking use it" Skorpa replied with a shrug. Not the first time someone had asked.

"Cheaper?" Sebastian echoed. "Why would that matter? I know paperwork is annoying, but just set everything up on autopay, it's not that bad. And why wouldn't you actually use your home, man?"

"Ok now you're starting to mozzy into not your beezwax territory. So.... None of your beezwax Sebastian" Skorpa replied rather bluntly. As if he felt like going into why affording a house right now would add to the pains on his ass and he didn't feel like dealing with a landlord.

"Ooh, touchy, touchy," Sebastian taunted. "No, like I said, this is cozy. It's perfect for someone like you, on the go a lot." He shrugged with indifference and then reached up to flick Skorpa's nose. "But if you wanted a crashpad that's a little less mobile, I got a house a few blocks from the courthouse. Got it a... year or so after moving here, I think, and nowadays I just use it to hide out when I don't feel like sleeping at Lux. Say the word and I'll have you a key made."

"No shit?..." Skorpa replied raising an eyebrow at the other in thought. He seemed to think about it for a minute as he eyed the truck which after what had happened needed some work. Bitch wasn't moving for awhile. "Guess I'll have to check it out at some point" He finally replied after a good minute thinking. Yeah Sebastian seemed like somewhat of a pushover. How bad could it be?

"Cool. I'll have a key made for you," Sebastian said. "Just don't disturb the neighbors. My best friend's little sister and her girlfriend live right next door."

"Mmhmm what do you take me for? I'm not that annoying" Skorpa teased a bit smartly. Well mostly, he definitely wasn't the worst at annoying neighbors. That award would probably have gone to Bjorgulf normally seeing as he'd been evicted for being to annoying before and that was probably putting it lightly.

"Do you want an honest answer?" Sebastian smarted right back. A wicked idea was forming in his head. "You know what, I'll get that key to you today, actually...."

And he wandered off to Lux to grab some of Serena's things that he knew Skorpa had seen her wearing and put them in his closet, and then go to have that key made ....
