Who: Alec Lordes, Dawn Bassler, Gully Morris, Gabe Sherlock and Alena Alkeinos
What: ...Exorcising a couch ~~They are so made of win!~~
Where: Alena's apartment
When: Tuesday night
Rating: W for WTF?

A lot of interesting things had happened to Alena in her life ranging from the slightly amusing to the down right unbelievable and as she stood in her kitchen sweeping her floor she couldn't help but think this was going to be on the top of that list. Tonight she, her boyfriend, his best friend, her cousin and one of her friends... were going to exorcise her couch. None of them had any clue to actually go about an exorcisim, well Gully said he did and she in turn had her doubts, even so they'd snuck into her parents house and stolen her brother's goldfish, Flo, and rounded up the other artifacts Gully said he would need. They'd hit a road bump when it came to a female virgin to sacrifice, Gabe had suggested Junior and Alena had shot that down, and in the end Alena had decided to give up one of her old Furby's for the job. What? It was pink... pink is a girl colour...

Stepping into her living room she'd raise a brow towards the two people already there. It would appear that Gabe was informing the couch of what was going to happen to it tonight while Dawn was trying to explain that he was only going to piss of the ghost more. ...I know how to pick them. Edging her way closer to them, she placed a hand on his shoulder and stood on her tippy toes to whisper to him. "Gabe... I think you've finally lost it. You're talking to a couch." Chuckling she'd pull away and start towards her front door, broom still in hand, when there was another out burst. Turning around she'd jut out a hip and look towards him. "I told you stop taunting Bernard before he eats more lip gloss. Plus you're pissing off the Furby!" With a wave of her hand she motioned to the Furby sitting on her coffee table that was currently making those annoying 'wh-whoa wh-whoa' noises in lieu of Gabe's excitement. Sighing she'd look to Dawn with a helpless expression before going outside.

This entire ghosts and exorcisism thing had her on edge, not to mention the phone call that Gabe had recieved earlier from Dawn's ex-husband- Detective Rourke. It didn't sit well with her at all that the police were now involved, even though he had supposedly said any information given to him would be off the records. Alena didn't believe that for a second if any more information was given up that it wouldn't open up a full scale investigation and she knew the detective in question personally, this fact only making her paranoid thoughts seem just a little bit more justified. As such she'd taken to cleaning her apartment to avoid a full blown panic attack from creeping up on her and had now moved on to sweeping her front porch with that old bristle broom. The sound of tiny little cat feet caused her to look up from her sweeping and smile down at her tiny siamese kitten. "Hey, Beej." Bringing a hand out to tap the top of her shitty little grill, that had never been used, would cause the kitten to jump on top of it. Resting the broom against her side she'd bend down and kiss the top of the cat's head while scratching under his chin. "We're gonna get rid of the couch ghost and then you don't have to worry about it eating you any more, kit." He mewed softly. "I know, right!?" Alena laughed before moving to continue sweeping her porch as Blow Job layed down and watched.

Gabe was in a silly mood, if only because he was sure that if he hadn't been, he would be completely freaking out. Why couldn't that detective just leave it be? It's not like the police could do anything anyway. Honestly, the only reason Gabe hadn't told him to just fuck off (besides the fact that he was technically guilty of quite a few things, including attempted murder, and having a police detective as an enemy was really the last thing he needed) was because his family was involved. It was understandable that Rourke would want to know what was going on with the mother of his daughter; if Gabe had a kid, he would want to know the same. Regardless, the whole situation had put him on edge, and he was coping with it by being completely ridiculous.

Alena was more paranoid than usual as well, and that was saying something. Despite the fact that he was currently holding a conversation in which the other participants were a pink Furby (whose virgin status Gabe personally held doubts about) and a hideous tweed lipgloss-munching couch, he didn't miss the more serious thoughts running through her head. They prompted him to follow her out onto the porch, where she was sweeping the steps, and he wrapped his arms around her from behind, kissing her below the ear.

"You know, if I couldn't read your mind, I'd know you were worried by the fact that you're cleaning," he said, swaying gently back and forth with her. "Not that I'm complaining about the cleaning bit. You're cute when you're domestic." That and the apartment really had needed that cleaning, though the porch was probably the last thing that needed attention. I love you. Don't worry so much; we'll deal with it all later.

Paint was a bitch to get off, especially if you were making sure it was going to last for a very, very long time. Underneath the usual obnoxious purple hoodie, Gully's arms were stained with drops and smears of gold, which would have looked amazing if his whole body was painted that color, and he had healing abilities, because then he'd simply take on the role of Elixir. But nooooo. Stupid paint.. Anywho! Gulliver had biked his way out to Alena's as promised. The old heap of metal would be locked up securely before he headed up the painful stairs to her actual apartment. Really.. the kid was in great shape thanks to stupid friends with their stupid 80 stories high apartments and their stairs e.e;

Yoinking off his helmet, Gully knocked against the door a few dozen times before beginning to chant pie Jesu domine loudly through the door for all to hear. Hey, he was hear to exorcise, so he might as well intimidate his undead foe. Besides, Gulliver had a brilliant plan for scaring his friends that may eventually lead to the abuse of his powers.. but hey, it was SO going to be worth it.

Once let in, Gully roughed up his hathead from the helmet before tossing it down to the ground and kicking off his shoes next to the doorframe. He would then take off his backpack and sweatshirt, leaving them in a pile as well. What was he wearing underneath? A white ringer shirt that once belonged to his brother before he jacked it for himself. Sure, Gully didn't drink, but it was funny as hell, and now proves itself beyond worthy for the situation. "My friends! Unvanted spirits! You shall all velcome my presence!" he said loudly in a very fake, very New York-styled Jewish accent.

She'd been so engrossed in sweeping that she hadn't noticed Gabe behind her until she felt his arms wrapping around her. Tensing up slightly she let out a small shakey chuckle as he kissed behind her ear. Leaning back against him Alena sighed and continued to sweep, an odd look crossing over her face as he said she looked cute when she was being domestic. "Well then I guess you'll have to go back to regular ugly old Alena when I go another six months without sweeping." Her tone was a little snippy, something she hadn't meant to get across. It was an instinct when she got into moods like this. "Sorry." She said in a soft voice as she stopped sweeping completely, letting the broom just rest in her hands. I'm trying not to worry so much, it's just that with all that was going on... and now we've got the cops onto us and... I love you too.

It was when she heard Gully yelling inside her apartment that she look behind herself and Gabe and shake her head softly. "We are so totally gonna be stuck with a couch ghost forver... hell, Gull'll probably make a few more of them posess the couch." Moving down a step she'd turn around to face Gabe and grab the collar of his shirt with her free hand. Pulling him down roughly she'd press her lips against his. "I wonder if an exorcisism would fall under the category of crime fighting?" Speaking into his lips she'd pull back as she chuckled and then moved passed him to go back inside, picking up Blow Job under her other arm.

"Hey Gull." Stopping behind him she'd wiggle a bit as Blow Job was trying to climb onto her shoulder and perch there so he could hide behind her hair from this new person. Holding the squirming cat still she'd move further into her apartment. "Gully this is my cousin, Dawn. Dawn, this is Gully. That shaggy man creature over there is my bitch, I mean boyfriend. I think you've met Gabe before..." Blow Job was determined to get down and sunk his small teeth into Alena's thumb. "Effenay, Beej!" Dropping the cat in surprise he'd run off towards her room. "Fucking devil cat." She mumbled under her breath as she shook her hand he had bitten while pointing to the couch with the broom handle. "That's were Bernard lives. And you've got all of your supplies there." She'd point to the old coffee table where it all lay. "And then I've got some religious candles that in my mind I'd like to think are Santeria candles." Hey, it couldn't hurt? A brow was quirked once more as she noticed his choice of attire. "Nice shirt." There was a small snort.

Scanning the others in her living room she couldn't help but notice they seemed to be missing one. "The fuck is Alec?" Oh he better show up, she still had to drown him.

"I sense a disturbance in the Force." Dawn leaned back in her chair, peering around the hidious fabric so that she could see Gabe, where he was holding a one-sided conversation with the haunted sofa. "I think you're making it angry." Snorting back a laugh, she kicked the chair back on two legs, using her toes to keep her balance. Honestly, she wasn't taking the whole thing very seriously. Who could? Exorcising a couch? That sounded like some sort of bad made-for-TV midnight special. But it was good comic relief, after her heated argument with Spencer. They'd been divorced for two years, but the still butted heads at least twice a week.

She zoned out for a bit, thinking more on that. Gabe left, leaving her alone with the possesed couch. She may have shot it a few looks out of the corner of her eye. For all that she wasn't a stern believer in ghosts, there was always a chance that her cousin wasn't full of shit. The couch, however, did not try to suck her in to some lip-gloss filled vortex. In fact, it didn't move at all. Oh well. If nothing else, they'd probably find a shit load of change and cigarette lighters during this little adventure.

Dawn dropped the chair back on to two legs whenever people made thier enterance. "Hey, hey." She gave the new guy (Gully) a little wave, and laughed when BJ decided to take a bite out of Alena. There was a reason she didn't have any pets. Some people would say that having a kid was worse, but at least Holly didn't bite. "He probably got lost. Or forgot." She glanced between Alena and Gabe, eyebrows raised. "You guys did call and remind him of the excitement, right?"

Alec didn't nearly get to Alena's apartment, he'd almost crashed the car into a tree due to his outfit which kept falling into his damn face. The deep blue cloak which was made out of crushed velvet look like a girls' birthday party had vomited all over it, there were tassels and fake jewels everywhere. He'd found it in Marlie's costume box, which he actually stole a year back because it had annoyed Hawthorne so much. It had never really been used, but now, it was the perfect outfit to send a perverted ghost back to hell. If only the damn tassels would stay out of his line of vision.

He didn't bother knocking on the door and took his cue from the sound of Alena's cousins voice to step in. "They did, and you're damn lucky you didn't start without me because..." he trailed off and in the cloak's pockets brought out two spray cans. "This one is holy water just in case the ghost gets uppity, and this one," he held up the other, "is just normal water. In case Alena gets uppity and I have to waste her."

"Of course he kno-- Ohmygod." Alena was cut off by Alec walking into her living room, looking like some rip off of... a gypsy? Possibly a gypsy trying to lure small children away with it's tassles and jewels? Well it was really distracting and for a split second she found herself wondering if she could somehow steal it from him to have herself. Then he started in on his spray bottles and that slight look of amazement would fall away as he mentioned her name. Taking a step towards Alec, Alena would raise that broom accusationally swinging in it an arch towards him that barely missed his face. "Oh I'd really advise you not to fuck with me, Lordes. Don't think I haven't forgotten that I still have to drown you. Do you have a preference as to which of those bottles you want me to jam down your GD throat? I haven't really, I think either or would do just nicely!"

During this little spiel of hers she continued to walk towards Alec so that she was soon within reach to do some serious damage with that broom. She was trying to resist the urge to beat him senseless with the damned handle. "Fucking spray me with that, and die." Narrowing her eyes on him as she moved even closer, glaring up at him. Yeah, she was still a little pissed off about the Booger Bear thing and it's aftermath.

Gabe re-entered the room, giving a nod to Gully and wondering where Alec was, himself, when - speak of the devil. He blinked at his best friend, then smirked. "Nice cloak, Dumbledore," Gabe said, before placing a restraining hand on Alena's shoulder to keep her from taking Alec's head off.

"Well, we've learned our lesson about having a big mouth, haven't we?" he said to Alena. That tickle war had been an epic one, and she was still butthurt over it. "Let's not beat people with brooms or shove holy water down their throats...we've got a couch to exorcise." He dropped his hand from Alena's shoulder and scooped up Blowjob with one hand, who had scurried back into the room and decided that Gabe's denim-clad leg made for a good scratching post. He raised an eyebrow at the kitten. "Or maybe we should leave Bernard be and let him eat you. I dunno about that Furby, guys. She looks like a ho to me."

Alec jsut grinned cheekily at Alena, and moved the holy water spray bottle in front of his face just in case he'd have to. "Thanks," he commented to Gabe without taking his eyes off of Alena who looked like she was about to kill him. She probably was. Alec wasn't sure if he'd like to die in this...thing. At least he'd die awesome.

"Hi Gully, Dawn," he nodded to the other people in the room, still smiling cheerfully. He stepped further into the room, ignoring Alena and her broom. "That's because it's Alena's demon cat," Alec shrugged and jostled one of the spray bottles. "Maybe we can use it as bait?" he was kidding of course. Eheh.

"Holy water! Brilliant! Fantastic back up plan, Mr. Alec!" There were some new faces for Gully, which was fine with him, he always did enjoy meeting fun crowds, especially if they were friends of Alena's; she always seemed to make friends with the best of personalities.

But it was time to get down and dirty. "Demon cat or not, cats are fantastical creatures that ward off evil spirits, as well as act as interplanel gateways. So save the cat, it might prove very useful to you in a few minutes.." he said to Alec, a wise nod of the head following his words. Gully had taken a few moments to gather the materials that he had asked the gang to provide, and was especially surprised that there had even been a real goldfish involved. Did he know what he was doing? HA Fuck no. Whatever he saw in movies and read in books. Granted, exorcisms were highly interesting to him, but he certainly wasn't certified. That didn't mean he wasn't going to fool his friends into thinking otherwise. "I'm going to need absolute quiet from everyone in the room. Please, Alena, my child, turn off the lights. Darkness attracts the darkened souls that invade this couch.. I can feel him.. Ah.. yes... The force is strong here. I'm glad you summoned me when you did!" Gully had his hands all over the couch, touching it delicately as if it were the most priceless artifact in all the world!

The goldfish would be placed ontop of a bible (mainly to keep it from tipping over, his goal was NOT to kill the poor little fishy), and the chocolate gelt was placed neatly in a pattern around the bible. Gully held a hand over the little set up while he pulled out a Star of David from his pocket and held it out as well. And thus, the ceremony would begin. The boy wasn't sure if any of these kids were Jewish, but he had had his bas mitzvah, and simply began reciting some of the prayers he remembers. Sh'ma Yisrael Ad'nai Eloheinu Ad'nai Echad. Avinu Malkenu, Avinu Malkeinu, Chaneinu V'aneinu, ki ein banu ma'asim. Assei imanu ts'dakah vachesed, vehoshiyeinu!! Yeah. Just prayers, but he seemed so serious, so passionate about what he was saying... The kid really needed to head to Hollywood or something.

The air around them, however, would start to stir.. Hair follicles could be felt rising.. and odd creaks could be heard from the couch that no one was touching. Gulliver would continue on with his random words that more or less were now just being made up, but as he continued and the intensity of his voice continued, so did the terribly strange, terribly real feeling that was going on in the room, along with the wind picking up. Shortly after the wind, the couch began shaking; the neatly placed gelt pieces were shifting, and a strange ghostly 'limb' apparently seeped up through the sofa cushions to take each single piece of chocolate. Gulliver took a few steps back, acting as if he were truly afraid, eyes left wide. He would continue his words, growing louder and louder as the couch seemed to grow a mind of its own to the onlookers. The goldfish bowl would levitate in the air, while the bible was quickly launched towards Gabe's head.

The water from the fishbowl, like any stasis-suspension type sequences in a movie, was being lifted into the air in many globules while the poor little fish was left, hovering inside the middle of the bowl, until that too was cast aside. Flo began growing in size rapidly, first nothing more than a baseball, then a skateboard, and by the time Flo was the size of a dog, Gully threw his Star at the fish, which seemed to leave a burning imprint. There would be orange-ish bubbles forming, as if the fish were boiling.. ah.. yes.. The fish WAS boiling, and within moments, would explode a green slime over the entire room....

And then there was nothing.

The room was as they had remembered it before the chaos. The fish was safe in its water-filled bowl atop the bible surrounded by the coins. Gully's star was on the couch however, and before he would even listen to the other's reactions, he quickly made his move to grab the star, whispering softly, "it is done.." And as fun as that was, pulling a prank on them all, Gully was pretty damn exhausted from it.
