The Isle of IKEA, Wednesday Evening

"I'm not sure how I feel about buying furniture with names," Bo said thoughtfully. "I mean, around here? What if Ivan doesn't like Sven and we spend the next year listening to the couch beating up on the coffee table in the middle of the night?"

"We lay bets and sell tickets and make a fortune on Pay-Per-View?" Kenzi suggested, looking hopeful.

Please. That could be a whole syndicated advice column, not just a hashtag.

"And then watch our famous furniture give exclusive interviews to TMZ about what we get up to on top of it?"

"Well, sure. Your furniture especially. Mine will end up repeating itself a lot, since Toby's the only participant... ooo! They have a mattress with your name on it!"

Sultan Hansbo. Was that a sign, or what?

"...what if the mattress wanted to get it on with the bed frame?" Kenzi pounced on the one that was labeled 'Mandal.'

"Itw ould be the most boring sex ever? I mean, there's just lying there, and then there's really just lying there."

[identity profile] regretiz4suckas.livejournal.com 2013-09-04 09:27 pm (UTC)(link)
"I dunno, the could be doing something tantric, and we wouldn't even know." Kenzi bounced up, then fell back onto Mandal again. "So, storage under the bed, so they can get it on with the drawers, or a separate set, for full flexibility?.... would you have sex with a humanified bed, Bo?"
nookiepowered: (looking (off right))

"Of course not. What the--" Succubus, know thyself. Bo shot a glance at the bed across the way. "Well, maybe Folldal. I mean... there's leather."

[identity profile] regretiz4suckas.livejournal.com 2013-09-05 12:47 am (UTC)(link)
"Is that a vote for Folldal?" Kenzi grinned, and bounced over to that one. "And and and I think I should get Vettre (http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/00222628/) too. She looks like she'd be up for anything. I want my furniture to learn from each other."

"You know I'm only having this conversation because the more we plan anything out in advance, the less likely it that Fandom will throw it at us, right?"

[identity profile] regretiz4suckas.livejournal.com 2013-09-05 05:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Kenzi snickered and flopped back onto a Stockholm pillow-chair. Did that mean she had a syndrome? "Yup. But at least our furniture can't claim we didn't think of it, if it ever does happen... Can we have a housewarming party? Maybe not right away, but soonish?"

"As long as you don't mean 'set the house on fire,' sure." Bo walked over to Folldal and dropped down for an experimental bounce. "Hmm. Your bed, but you might want one with storage after all. The leather's not all that comfy."

[identity profile] regretiz4suckas.livejournal.com 2013-09-05 06:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Kenzi leaned over to pat the bed. "She didn't mean it in a bad way, Folldal. Don't take it personally." Another bounce and she was up and examining bean-bag chairs and papa-sans. "Why would I want to set our house on fire when we just moved in? ... aside from giving us an excuse to move into Efferton, and the guy there is a jerk and a jackass and would probably leave us in a cardboard box on the street."

[personal profile] nookiepowered 2013-09-06 12:03 am (UTC)(link)
"Hopefully you won't want to set the house on fire in three months, either, but I didn't mean on purpose." Bo stretched her legs and decided maybe Folldal just needed a chance to grow on her. "Somebody moved into Efferton?"

[identity profile] regretiz4suckas.livejournal.com 2013-09-06 02:02 am (UTC)(link)
"'Doom'," Kenzi said. You could hear the quote-marks. "Big creepy armored psycho world-killer. According to him. I think he's compensating for something, with the cape and that mask."
nookiepowered: (amused (o rly?))

[personal profile] nookiepowered 2013-09-07 03:46 pm (UTC)(link)
"Oh, him." Bo reluctantly sat back up, though she might not be vacating the bed itself anytime soon. "I haven't met him, but I've seen him on the cameras. And his resume; apparently that's his actual name."

[identity profile] regretiz4suckas.livejournal.com 2013-09-07 08:07 pm (UTC)(link)
"Seriously? What the heck is the guy teaching? I mean, I'm not surprised, it's Fandom, but still." Kenzi fumed a little and added, "I might have told him I'd steal the house from him. Also, if you could find a reason to whammy him I would be eternally grateful if you got it on camera. Great big boots-wearing boomy-voice twerp."

"I'm not whammying random people just because they bought a house we can't afford anyway, Kenz."

"He threatened me!" After she'd gotten up in his face. Kenzi made her voice pathetic. "He threatened the house. And... maybe he'd relax if he got laid? Maybe? 'Cause you know, I bet he doesn't get much play with that Dark Helmet act he's got going."

"You have a great career in store for you writing personal ads for people if you ever decide to give up fraud and petty larceny."

[identity profile] regretiz4suckas.livejournal.com 2013-09-07 10:04 pm (UTC)(link)
"Oooo." Put that down in Kenzi's mental column of Other Ways to Make Cash. "But I will never give up fraud and petty larceny. I will just switch to major larceny. It's my destiny, Bo."

"Before or after the half-way house for wayward delinquents?"

[identity profile] regretiz4suckas.livejournal.com 2013-09-07 10:10 pm (UTC)(link)
"During!... wait, you meant for our future adopted kids, not me, right?" Another bounce on the bed. "Do you think the Fae have other cool stuff like the Koushang that could be sold on eBay?"
nookiepowered: (dubious (umm...))

[personal profile] nookiepowered 2013-09-07 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
"Are you asking because you think we should try to find some, or because you already stole some and want to hock it?" Bo gave her a look. "We do not need those people following us back here to get their shit back."

[identity profile] regretiz4suckas.livejournal.com 2013-09-07 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
"Nnnnngh. Point." Kenzi made a face. "Except Trick, who's pretty cool. But he knows where we are anyway." Another bounce of glee in remembering that adventure. "Still. I gotta think of the future. Since you're never gonna get rich being a security officer, it's up to me to redistribute the wealth so we get our house back. If Doom doesn't burn it down out of spite."
nookiepowered: (smiling (satisfied))

"Hey, I do okay. Eric pays... better than the school, actually." He could afford to. Of course, so could the school, but they had more people to spend their budget on. "Just not okay enough to buy a mansion."

"Well, I -- weirdly enough -- want to pull my own weight." Kenzi stood up and took a dramatic pose. "At something I'm good at, but want to be great. So. Theft it is. Unless we find treasure." Her eyes widened. "OOOOooooooo. A pirate used to run the Radio Station. Do you think there's treasure on the island somewhere?" Say yes, Bo! Don't dash her dreams!

[personal profile] nookiepowered 2013-09-07 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
"Kenzi, there's everything on the island somewhere." There probably was treasure. Though their opinions might differ on how up for grabs it was. "Try not to go digging inside somebody else's safe, though."
