[Action - Locked to 502 Ricardo Street]
[Hey housemates. Hope none of you are wanting that turkey because the moment Pokey sees it? Yeah, he's going to be starting a fire in the fireplace and bringing the turkey with him. If you're fast enough and want to stop him, you can try to before he goes ahead and pitches the turkey into the fire.]
[Phone]
Hey idiots, everyone else is doing a pretty good job pointing out how this is a trap so, hey, guess that means you don't need more voices shouting it at you. I got a different question.
I'm not giving specifics about it over the phone but....is it...
[There's a pause, and a sigh, before Pokey continues in a mumble.]
Is it....wrong...to be thankful for being here?
[Action - Outside 501 Ricardo]
[Welp. He has no clue why he's doing this. Really, Pokey just doesn't want to admit it over the phone. But the asshole responsible for him being here lives right next to him. And really, this wouldn't be the first time he's ranted outside her house. Just the first time he's done it like this.]
You can bite me. Seriously. Originally I guess I would have told you that just for putting me in this hole, but since then you've given me a lot of extra reasons to tell you it too. You're a real piece of garbage, you know that you freak?
[He pauses, just staring at the house before looking at the ground.]
But on the other hand? ...I've never been happier than I have been here. Even when it's sucked, it sucked as hard as it did because things weren't bad before. Because they were, in fact, awesome as far as things for me go. The best they had ever been. And I wonder, sometimes, if you brought him here to help keep me happy. As a bribe, I guess, not because I'm important but just because you could. Doesn't matter in the end really. I'm not losing sleep over it.
...And I guess, here...I learned things about myself I really didn't want to. And...you know how they say growing up sucks? Yeah, it does. Even harder than I thought it would.
But I did it. And I realize I only did it because I'm here.
I-
[Pokeys' hands bawl up into little fists.]
I am. I'm thankful for being here. For you bringing me here.
[And God.
Does he ever hate that.]

Date: 2011-11-24 11:53 pm (UTC)[Well, psychos do tend to show up in the town. And, as much as he hates it looking back on it? Pokey would be far more amused by this answer a year ago than he his now, Belphegor, though he's making sure to sound pleased by it.
If there are more murderers piling in, it'd probably be a good idea to keep track of them.]
Too bad so few people can play rough, huh?
You new here? Got a name?
[phone - Filter]
Date: 2011-11-25 12:01 am (UTC)Yeah, someone who can fight is more fun~ But if I need that, at least I know that Ace-kun's here and easy to pick a fight with~
[Since he just needs to show his face near the guy and he'd get angry.]
I've been here since August, so I can't say I'm new~

Date: 2011-11-25 12:07 am (UTC)Yeah? Still haven't seen much then. This place can get to be a real hole, the longer you're here.

Date: 2011-11-24 11:54 pm (UTC)But...I dunno. This place just seems better than any other place I could be or have been. Does that make sense?
no subject
Date: 2011-11-24 11:59 pm (UTC)So in a way yes.
I know lots of people are from worse places then this. Or were in situations that being away from is a mercy.
Why do you like it here?

...You feeling better?

Date: 2011-11-26 04:11 am (UTC)Let's say someone comes here from someplace worse. D'you think they'd rather be stuck here, or would they like to be back home where at least they'd be more free to go and do what they want.
