Gabriel - Video - 02

[hung_garian]

You can all quit freaking out over The Box now. After painstaking investigation, I can reveal that it contains - a cat. It's simultaneously alive and dead. Hence all the funny scratches - if you ever tried getting your feline friend into a carrier, you'll know what I mean. Claws are not fun, kids, no matter what Whitesnake say. And that goes double for the undead kitty kind. Unhygienic on top of painful, double ouch.

[Needless to say, Gabriel is bored. Also needless to say (hopefully), none of that was true.]

So since that's all sorted out, who likes the idea of celebratory drinks? Sure, we might not technically have a bar, but where there's life there's booze, as my dear old gran used to say. Well, before she got packed off to rehab, anyway.

[He grimaces, despite not even having a grandmother.]

Anyway. Takers? Ladies, don't be shy. Doctor Barrett, that means you too, awful drinking habits notwithstanding.

Only that I'm egocentric.

So where is this party of yours going to be?

[hung_garian]

[He shrugs.]

Everyone here's a killjoy. Looks like I'm partying on my own.

[primogen_vampirate]

Two is company.

[hung_garian]

Make that everyone except you. You're a star, sweetheart.

[primogen_vampirate]

Was I mistakenly being sweet again?

[hung_garian]

I'd go with 'accidentally'.

[primogen_vampirate]

I do need to be more careful about that.

[hung_garian]

Don't sweat it. We can't all be as perfect as me.

[primogen_vampirate]

Well, who doesn't want to aspire to such greatness?

[hung_garian]

No one in their right mind, that's for sure.

[primogen_vampirate]

I couldn't agree more.

[hung_garian]

All this agreeing you're doing's making me suspicious.

[primogen_vampirate]

As if I have some sort of ulterior motive?

[hung_garian]

Oh, I wouldn't go that far. That'd be an awful thing to accuse someone of.

[primogen_vampirate]

[She nods oh-so-sincerely]

Especially your doctor.

[hung_garian]

Oh, I wouldn't mind that so much. I've seen enough home movies to know that doctors' ulterior motives always end well.

[primogen_vampirate]

Rest assured, darling, there will be no cavity searches.

[hung_garian]

Shame. That's my favourite part.

[primogen_vampirate]

I'm sure you could fancy other parts. If you tried hard enough.

[hung_garian]

I suppose I could bring myself to give 'em a go.

[primogen_vampirate]

I have every confidence in you, darling.

[hung_garian]

As you should. Coming over, then?

[primogen_vampirate]

Just say when and where.

[hung_garian]

How about here and now?

[primogen_vampirate]

Well, where is "here?"
