Who: Beecher and Melissa
What: Getting high, adjusting to the strange new world
When: Today, early morning, after leaving Chris high and dry in California
Warnings: Drug use, strong language- anything else, I'll let you know.

Toby had looked up where this portkey was supposed to be, having to haul himself there on foot; he hadn't driven anywhere, since the accident. He didn't want to start, just to leave the car abandoned while he went halfway around the world. Finally making his way to the portkey, he glanced down at it; an old beer bottle, of all things. Cautiously, he reached down to touch it, feeling the now-familiar lurch of the ground from under his feet. Managing to land on his feet this time, he stumbled to the nearest wall, leaning into it while looking around for this 'Melissa' he was supposed to meet.

Toby watched the exchange, only half concerned with her getting the count right; he'd fallen in to even more money than he'd had before. And this was something of an important thing for him to do, at least to him.

"Dope first, stories after." He was already working on dividing the dope out, rolling the sticks, still having enough left for another stick or two, if he was careful. Waste not, want not in prison, after all. He passed off Melissa's, reaching in his pocket for the lighter he'd grabbed from Chris, lighting them up.

"To life," He offered up, smirking before taking a drag, letting the smoke waft in his head for a minute, sighing out the remains. "Damn," His voice was already clouded, eyes not quite focused as he opened them. "Good shit indeed."

"To life, luv," Melissa murmured as she took a long drag, waiting as well before smiling as she blew out the smoke at Tobias' words, "I never lie about the quality of my shit. But goodness," As if it just hit her, she smiled a bit more, "This is rather potent, isn't it? Lord. Alright," She took another drag, "Tell me. Who's this Chris bloke, then, tell me about it."

Sitting back to settle in for storytime, Toby took another drag before starting in. "Prisoner #98K514, Chris Keller. Felony murder, two counts attempted murder, assault with a deadly weapon, robbery, yadda yadda. 'Lawyer in me, sorry. He..." Toby shruged, taking a smaller puff. "I have no idea what the fuck you wanna know. He came to Em City- the part of Oz where we lived, yes, love the literary jokes, I know- a year after I got there, give or take. I was his 'sponsor'- supposed to show him around and shit. Did my part to keep him safe from the Aryan fuckheads, only to find out he was working for their leader trying to kill me. Not quite the classic romance novel, but somehow, we fell in love," The sarcasm in hsi voice was palpable, as he reached in his pocket to pull out a flask, taking a drink. Smoking always made him ridiculously thirsty.

Melissa took a moment with all that, nodding a little, "So, you're still together, then, after all that? That's lovely, though. Not still working for Aryans, is he? Would suck the romance right out of this if he were. Mind, how he could be, seeing as they are probably still in your world, and here you are here. So, you love him, then, Tobias?" Melissa got up and swayed a bit before going to her fridge to pull out a Bacardi breezer before sitting back at the table, "That's sweet, though."

"Oh, that's not half of it. But yeah. Still together." He scoffed at the mention of 'still working for the Aryans, "The Aryans are dead. He killed them all. Well, semantically, I took out the leader, but... he switched the knives. It was supposed to be part of Macbeth. The play's the thing," At the mention of him loving Chris, he thought through another deep pull off his joint, leaning back to let his head hang over the back of the chair. "Yeah, guess I do. It's fucked, but.. he saved my life. When he wasn't trying to kill me. I-"

He huffed out the smoke, laughing, "I've given up trying to figure it out. I was on my way to the chair, before I got here. This is basically borrowed time. If he kills me, so what? I got an extra week of freedom. Better than I thought,"

"Both of you living on it, then, what with him on his borrowed time since he did, in fact, die? Oh, sweet, luvvy," Meissa blew some smoke out and nodded, "So, you're just taking it as it comes, then? And you said he's obsessing, is he? Well, by all means, I say let him and love it, ducky! Let your man spoil the shite out of you. Better than nothing, I say. Mind, if he's as crazy as you say, God forbid you didn't let him, anyway, so whatever." A nod, a toke and a smile, "Is he at least a sexy beast for all the trouble?"

	Toby scoffed a little at that. "I.. yeah, he's alright. Not- ugly, per se'. I don't know, I'm not- wasn't interested in men, before." He didn't want to entertain the idea about Chris and his obsession being dangerous for him. He was more worried for others, Melissa included, after all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"'Not ugly, per se'!" Melissa snickered at that, "Oh, those are vows if I ever heard them! Does he turn your crank, dear, I wasn't asking if he was handsome in comparison to George bloody Clooney, which, no offense, luv, but there is no bloody way he even reaches that-I was asking if you thought he was sexy. But, you say he's alright and that's alright. He at least good at the sex bit?"

	He joined in the laugh, realizing it did sound a little stupid. At the talk of being good 'at the sex bit', he snorted, taking another puff. "Any consentual sex, is good sex, in prison. But the shit we've been getting up to since hasn't been shabby, no." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Oooh," Melissa snickered, "Good one you, Tobias. All consentual then?" She teased, laughing all the more, "Well, there you go. Worth your while, at least, I hope! Getting enough bang for his bucking and all that." Melissa always loved this bit. When people would sit around and shoot the shit while getting high. It was nice, and she was really good at chatting when not loosened up by weed, after all.

"'Least after he showed up," Tobias retorted, taking another drink from his flask as he adjusted in the chair, feeling the dope starting to make him hard, combined with all this talk of sex. "Yeah, well, I shudder to think what'd happen if I wasn't 'worth my while' anymore. He's killed for less," The last was said flippantly, seeing as he was too high to really let it get to him. The thoughts would haunt him later, sure, but for now, it was just conversation.

"Oh, better be a good fuck, then, luv," Melissa laughed at that, wondering if that was really the case and if she should be concerned. She was high, however, and would settle on being 'high' at that moment, "I'm sure he'll have fun with you for a while, at least, if you've had as stressful a go of it as it seems! Set a man free, he'll hump the first thing he sees and he'll stick with it if it humps back, I say!"

	Toby sighed, decidedly not liking this train of thought. "And how about you, then, found something that'll hump back?" Deflection; an old tactic, but if it worked, he wouldn't bemoan it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Can't say I have, no, ducky," Melissa shook her head, holding her joint to the side as she had a sip of her cooler, "No, but here's hoping!" She toasted the man and had another sip, snickering, "Tell you what, desperate times and all that, I'll get Jacky boy to set me up with someone, since he's the bloody rock star and all that now."

"Way people talk on those board things, 'doesn't sound like promiscuity's going to be an issue, OH-" He had a thought, sitting up suddenly, laughing at the way his head swam for his troubles, before going on,

"There's going to be a naked party... somewhere in California, this weekend. Next- Next weekend. I can get you the info. I'm sure you can find a fuck there."

	melissamax 2008-02-26 12:49 am UTC (link)
	"Ooh, a naked party? I might just be up for that," Snickering at the man's laugh, Melissa tapped some of the burnt paper off his joint into an ash tray shaped like a pear-of all things-on the table, "Hook me up, luvvy, and I'll be there with bells on. Or rather, sans bells, since it's naked." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	otherofoz 2008-02-26 12:55 am UTC (link)
	Toby had been stubbing the joint in his hand, more than used to the slight burn. But, seeing that was, in fact, an ash tray, he shook his hand off into it, nodding. "Yeah, the address is on that..." He reached in his pocket, pulling out the cell phone. "On the site. Posted by a pretty woman, nice tits," (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	melissamax 2008-02-26 12:59 am UTC (link)
	Melissa looked over and nodded, "Alright, ducky, I'll look around," She grinned a bit, "I'm sure there will be a buzz about it, anyway, when it comes about. I'll make it." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	otherofoz 2008-02-26 01:02 am UTC (link)
	Nodding, officially picking the dope over Melissa's conversation, Toby went back to toking, leaning back in the chair and just blissing out. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

She was fine with that, sipping her vodka and having her joint. It was amazing the leaps and bounds with weed since she had last bought and dealt. Whatever they put in it was the perfect high, she decided, and if she was to do it, it would be this stuff.

A while passed before she bothered to say anything, having been looking out the window, "So, luv, when did you need to be back?"

	"He's fucked at me. I might wander back tonight, might wait 'till tomorrow, see if he calms down," It was likely the waiting would piss him off more, but with Chris, it could really go either way. So he was just as safe staying, as he was going, in his muted logic. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Ooh, right, right, you ran away without telling daddy where you were going," Melissa smiled, "Not a wise choice even with the sane one's, dear, especially when they catch you, high and with a lady such as meself." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Toby took another pull, rolling his eyes, "You're forgetting, I haven't been able to run for five years. I wasn't thinking when I got up this morning. It was bad. I just needed a fix, and we didn't have any in the house. Better from someone on recommendation, than looking on the street," He'd known the dealers, in Oz, obviously. He never had reason to question their quality. He didn't like the idea of sucking strangers' tits, for want of a better phrase.

	"Hey, I'm not judging, luvvy-I'm a man dressed as a woman who goes by 'Melissa', who the fuck am I to say bloody well anything?" She tittered, taking a long toke, pausing to do so before grinning, "I'll give you a card or something before you go, anyways. So you might call or what have you, don't always have to use those board thingies." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	otherofoz 2008-02-26 01:39 am UTC (link)
	He seemed to think about that, before nodding. "This was supposed to be my last hit, but..." Toby shrugged, "You never know what I'm gonna need when, right?" He finally smoked up the last of his joint, stubbing the ashes in the tray, settling back to enjoy the rest of his high. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
