[After this.]

~~you're an asshole and i hope a bus runs you over~~ ~~i was so stupid to think that i could trust my own taste~~ So I hear you're back, that's great. I put you up for auction for the charity auction. Why? I don't know, because I'm a crazy bitch, I guess. When you disappeared off the face of the earth I tried to bid on your auction. I knew it was you because they used the stupid joke information I gave them. Anyway, someone else won you, so now you get to go on a date with someone for charity. Have fun.

ETA: [A few hours later, after she considers that Thomas might just sleep with his date, making it not so much a punishment as something that will make Max more upset.] You know what, I'm willing to try to buy your date off the winner if I can get hold of them, and save you a date with someone else. I'm just fucking generous like that.

	[More annoyed, if that's possible.] What, did your little sojourn leave your balls so dry that you can't give it another go? I'll see if I can buy it off them. [Disconnect.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

With whoever the hell you spent your four-day vacation with. What, did you really think Max wasn't going to tell me? We may hate each other most of the time, but we're sisters. I thought you were a decent man, and clearly I made a massive mistake. Don't hold it over my head. I'll by the stupid date from whoever won it and then I never want to have to speak to you again. [She sounds like she's about to hang up yet again.]

	The one for the Valentine's Day Carnival, Thomas, the one that just ended, the one that started the day you fell off the face of the earth to go fuck someone that wasn't your pregnant girlfriend. Don't call me again. [Disconnect.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Phone call to A. Main. dyingatherfeet 2011-01-31 04:31 am UTC (link)
	What? [Pause. She still sounds angry, but she's audibly upset as well.] Look, Thomas, I liked you. I thought, here's a decent guy. Someone who's good for my sister, probably too good for her - look how lucky she is. Congratulations on proving me wrong, really, I give you my props, but you don't need to drive it home any further.

	Re: Phone call to A. Main. bystealth 2011-01-31 04:41 am UTC (link)
	I wouldn't be with anyone else. Why do you want me to go on a date? [Then, suddenly, to someone in the same room:] It's important. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Phone call to A. Main. dyingatherfeet 2011-01-31 04:45 am UTC (link)
	[Audrey is suddenly putting together how generally confused Thomas has sounded during this entire conversation.] Max said that the reason you disappeared was because you were off sleeping with someone else. [Pause.] Where are you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Phone call to A. Main. bystealth 2011-01-31 04:48 am UTC (link)
	[His mouth comes back near the phone at that, and he's offended. Really offended.] No. [Then, this time away from the microphone:] No. If it doesn't come back, it doesn't come back. I'm not straining them. I'm on the phone. Go away. [He sounds imperious, but he's used to ordering people around. His voice comes back.] Audrey? Sorry. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	YOU LOST YOUR PHONE? Max would not tell me you cheated on her if all that happened was you lost your phone. [She hears a noise, then, and it sounds like...a monitor. A monitor? A MONITOR?] ARE YOU IN THE GODDAMN HOSPITAL? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Baaad. But the nurse is back and she takes away the phone and moves it away, which makes him want to hurt a very nice person for a very silly reason. However, they want him to rest, and they have ways of making sure he does it.] (Reply to this) (Parent)
