Sid...was out of fags. And food, but most importantly, fags. Yesterday had been a long day of hauling shit out from under the stage and staying the hell inside to avoid the possibility of meeting...himself. So, when he slept that night, he slept like the lazy log that he rightfully was. But, when he woke up the next morning, shrugging out of his jacket because it was actually kind of hot in the theatre today, he was dismayed to find that he'd smoked his last cigarette at some point the night before and hadn't realized that it was the last one. Thus, he hadn't replaced the pack.

With a sigh, Sid pushed up his sleeves against the heat and headed back up from the green room and right out the door. He was going to the bloody petrol station and he was going to stock up like Anders had. Much smarter to have more than one pack on his person. Maybe he'd take another lighter, too, actually. Might as well, while he was at it.

The sun was already shining brightly in the sky and the warmth was a really nice change from the last time he'd been outside a couple of days ago. The snow was nearly all melted, save a few small piles still left from the massive snowdrifts that had reached up to the second floor window. It was far smaller, now, but apparently it had been too large for the sun to take out yesterday. Sid had a feeling it'd be gone by the end of today, though. That was good.

Zoning out as he walked, listening idly to the crunch of gravel under his sneakers, Sid made it to the petrol station in almost no time. He hadn't realized he'd been walking so fast. He let himself in and looked around. "Oi, anyone home?" he called out, not necessarily liking the idea of just barging in on someone's personal space just for cigarettes but...shit, they were cigarettes. Anyone living in the petrol station must be used to being barged in on; it was where all the good stuff was. Including, Sid remembered as his eyes landed on the case and his brow furrowed with frustration, spliff.

Bob had been under the counter shifting through the junk that had accumulated there. There were cleaning materials and a disassembled phone. There was also a box that used to have fireworks in it. It seemed like under the counter was a place for trash. What Bob wanted it to be was a place for his feet. He was getting used to pretending to be Dante. He sure as fuck wasn't Randal.

"Oi, anyone home?" Came the Brit's voice and Bob poked his head up from under the counter. He offered a smile of sorts before doing the customary head tilt of greeting.

Pulling himself up on the stool Bob gave Sid a half grin and a wave. He wondered if the kid came in for another bout with the cooler of doom. God he hoped he did. Bob really wanted a fucking smoke like yesterday.

Bob appeared from under the counter and Sid mirrored the head tilt before smirking. "You sleep under there and you run the risk of waking up to pudding in the face, mate," he joked, thinking of the last time he'd fallen asleep under there. Hadn't really been Sid's ideal way to start the day.

"Are there more smokes?" Sid asked, miming smoking a cigarette. "'m out."

He paused, then. "So, nobody got into that thing after I left, looks like..." he said with a bit of a frown, nodding back at the cooler full of spliff, taunting them almost with it's simple-looking build.

When Sid said 'pudding' Bob's brow rose. Ignoring the fact that Sid had said he'd been sleeping under ther e- the entire idea of pudding made Bob grin. He liked fucking pudding. Really liked fucking pudding.

Did Sid just mime at him? Did the kid think he was deaf of some shit? Bob rolled his eyes, shook his head, stood up and took down one pack of smokes, setting them on the fucking counter.

Following Sid's line of sight back to the Pot-Trap-of-Doom, Bob shrugged. Nobody ever made it into the fucking cooler. At all. And it pissed his ass off. Shaking his head, Bob pulled out one of his own cigarettes and lit it up. This kid was fucking stressing him the fuck out.

...had he said something wrong? Well, Sid usually did say the wrong things, so he supposed he shouldn't be surprised by the roll of Bob's eyes. In fact, he looked so much like Tony just then, Sid almost - almost - felt like he was home again.

And then Bob gave him a pack of cigarettes and Sid gave him a grateful smile as he slammed the pack over and over again against his palm to pack them. "Thanks," he replied. Ripping the packaging open, Sid teased out a cigarette and pressed it between his lips, lighting it. "There's gotta be a way in there. D'you suppose it's on a motion sensor or we actually have to touch it to set it off?" he asked, taking a drag and exhaling the smoke along with his words.

"I just... Fuck. I want some fucking spliff. This place is driving me mad and if I can't bloody have some pills, then I want some sodding spliff," he grumped, furrowing his brow as he looked back at the case.

The thud-thump of the pack on the heel of Sid's palm was a familiar sound. It was reminiscent of people walking out of the Quick Stop with their smokes and getting ready to get back in their fucking cars and drive away.Bob was longing for home. Dammit.

Bob nodded, accepting Sid's thanks. It was no fucking problem, all he did was reach up and set them on the counter.

Getting up, Bob walked back to the PToD - walking in front of it he demonstrated that it wasn't a motion sensor. He knew that because if it was a motion sensor Jay would have fucking lost his head by now for as many fucking times as he had paced back and forth, staring at it like it was the most fucking important thing in the world. Shit, Bob had done the same damn thing.

Taking his place behind the counter, Bob ducked down and gestured for Sid to fucking join him.

Bob had an idea. This was going to be war - and the fucking counter was going to be his fucking trench.

Sid watched as Bob walked over to the case and nothing happened. Right then, not a motion sensor. He couldn't decide if that made things easier or harder, actually. But then Bob came back around and ducked down behind the counter, gesturing for Sid to follow. So, Sid, being the follower that he naturally was, did just that, crouching down behind the counter beside Bob.

"Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" Sid asked with a smirk, picking up a piece of broken stool that was still littering the floor. He mimed that he was going to throw the thing, but he didn't actually do it. He wanted Bob's input before he did something potentially stupid.

Even if he did throw something at it...logically, it'd start throwing those sodding ninja star things, but it wouldn't do them any good getting the thing open so much as just letting out their frustration on it. At least, so far as Sid could see, but maybe Bob had another idea. Sid was all ears.

Bob waggled his brow. Sid was thinking what he was thinking. They were going to throw shit at it until the damned thing fucking croaked. Then, when it was dead, Bob planned to fucking throw more shit at it just to make sure.

After that, how the fuckhe'd get it open he didn't really fucking know. What he did know is that staring at that thing was really driving him fucking insane.

So, taking up one of the bottles of cleaning solvent, Bob poked his head up over the fucking counter and eyed his target. Nodding to Sid he lobbed his fucking bottle hearing a tell tale hiss and pop and metallic whir as a fucking ninja star lodged somewhere in the store. All Bob knew is that it wasn't in his ass, and that was all that mattered.

Gesturing with a triumphant fist pump Bob let Sid know it was his fucking turn.

Brilliant! They were on the same page. Sid wanted to throw things at it and Bob did as well. Actually, maybe if they threw something hard enough, they could break the glass... All right, so maybe they weren't on exactly the same page, but it was close enough. They wanted the same thing and they both had the same idea for getting there.

Sid ducked further reflexively when he heard the case throw - could it really throw them? - a ninja star at them. At Bob's gesture, Sid peeked up over the counter next and held the piece of broken stool over his head, aiming. Then, he chucked it and dropped back down behind the counter knowing that he hit his target when he heard a heavy thump of impact followed by the hiss, pop, and whir before a ninja star embedded itself into something with a thick chunk sound.

"We need to find something that'll shatter the glass when we hit it, mate..." Sid said. "That's what I'm thinking, anyway..." he added almost sheepishly in case maybe that was Bob's idea in the first place.

Bob grinned triumphantly as he heard yet another object smash into the fucking case and another star go whizzing off in some other direction. Standing up, Bob looked around; the problem with finding something heavy enough to break the glass would be being able to throw it far enough and high enough to impact where they wanted to.

Bob spied an old phone book, somebodies shoe, all sorts of food... wait, there it was - the fucking fire extinguisher. That fucking thing came from the dawn of time and weighed a ton (Bob should know.)

Sauntering over to it Bob raised it, waving it at Sid as if to say what do you think?

When Bob got to his feet, Sid did the same. His eyes, too, were scanning the room for something heavy enough to break the glass - or rather hard enough and still light enough to lift and throw.

All Sid could see that might work were the tubs of chewing tobacco or maybe some bottles of motor oil, the latter of which he was pretty sure wouldn't be a great idea.

Bob's movement caught in Sid's periphery vision and he looked over, his face lighting up like a kid on Christmas morning when Bob held up the fire extinguisher. If that didn't work, probably nothing would. "Brilliant!" he exclaimed, nodding excitedly. "That is bloody brilliant, mate! Yes!"

Bob was stoked that Cid thought the fucking fire extinguisher would work. It would be fucking amazing if it did. Fire extinguisher in hand Bob walked rather purposefully to the counter and nodded.

It was now or fucking never.

Offering Sid the fire extinguisher to do the fucking honors.

Because even Bob knew he threw like a fucking girl

...Bob wanted Sid to throw it? Sid almost laughed incredulously. If he could throw it from this far away, there was no bloody way it was going to be hard enough to break that glass. Still, Sid took the fire extinguisher and then gave Bob a reproachful look.

"I throw like a girl, mate," he warned, although...

Actually, Anders had been teaching him a thing or two about follow through when he was trying to show him how to play Pyramid. Maybe he'd be able to pull it off after all. Worst case scenario, the glass didn't break and then Bob could try his luck, yeah?

"All right...no promises..." he said before taking his place behind the counter. Sid took a deep breath and held the fire extinguisher over his head. "Blimey, this is heavy..." he grunted and then with a second grunt, this one of effort, he chucked the fire extinguisher toward the glass front of the case.

There was a dull thud of impact and Sid grinned at the crack in the glass just before ducking behind the counter to dodge the next bit of shrapnel about to be flung in their direction. There was a low hissing sound after the thunk of the ninja star hitting wood and sticking that made Sid's brow furrow. "The fuck...?" he wondered aloud, standing again.

Just in time to see the fire extinguisher explode. "Christ!" he shouted, dropping back down again. "Fuck!"

Bob had nodded happily as Sid agreed to chuck the extinguisher - it saved him that slice of humble fucking pie. Watching Sid chuck the extinguisher Bob ducked fucking down - this had to fucking work.

There was the sound of the metal clashing with glass; the metallic whir of the fucking ninja star shit, and then all was quiet for a moment.

In that moment Bob popped his head up, he didn't have time to really take a look at the case because the hissing of the extinguisher caught his attention. With a slow, steady leak the extinguisher did not look good. Bob's jaw fell.

"Shit," he breathed just as the extinguisher gave reason to heed the "contents under pressure" warning. Bob ducked back under the counter and from an aisle length away the fucking extinguisher launched it's bits with such velocity that they could be heard thunking and splattering against the other side of the counter.

With another subsequent launch of ninja stars Bob winced. Then all was quiet. Peeking his head up once more Bob gasped. FUCK.

There was white powder everywhere; however, there was victory to be had - the initial crack in the glass had splintered. Score one for the fucking home team!

After having ducked and covered, cowering against the back of the counter, Sid waited until everything got quiet again and then when Bob moved to peek up, Sid followed suit.

"Bollocks," he muttered at the mess, although, when he noticed that the glass was splintering, his face lit up again and he looked over at Bob. "Whaddya say, mate? One more good hit should break it and we'll have some fucking spliff?" he asked, grinning wickedly. Christ, he could almost taste the rancid smoke in his throat; almost feel the slow burn in his lungs. Blimey, Sid could almost feel the lightheaded-ness as an after effect.

"What else can we throw?" he asked, looking around. "We could...I mean, all I saw really was the chewing tobacco tins. We could try that, yeah? Throw a few of 'em that way? They'll be lighter, so we can throw 'em harder...if we hit the same spot over and over, the glass has got to shatter, yeah?"

Bob could taste a foul something in his throat - and that something was residual powder from the extinguisher as it languished in the air. It tasted like he imagined bleach probably did and it hung in his nose and throat. Fuck.

"Bullocks," Sid said, and Bob nodded. Fucking right. They were almost as fucking bad as L now. Well, at least they hadn't tried to fucking catch the place on fire - they had just made a mess.

Bob nodded to the idea of using the fucking cans of chew - it had to fucking work. Leaning over he grabbed a few that had been stacked on the counter and handed a pair to Sid.

There would be fucking gange.

"How come you never talk, anyway?" Sid asked, distracted, as he took the two tins of tobacco that Bob handed him. "You can, can't you? Just choose not to or...?" he asked. It was pretty clear that the other man wasn't deaf, or else he could read lips really well. What little he had heard Bob say didn't sound like the voice of a deaf person, so it was kind of bugging him why the other man stayed so quiet all the time.

Sid took his turn and chucked one of the tins at the glass, grinning to himself at the sound of the glass chipping before the tin toppled to the ground and the ninja star was released. Then, he looked over at Bob and waved a hand. "You're up, mate," he said.

They were so close to victory, Sid could practically taste it. ...well, among the shitty, thick taste of whatever had come out of the fire extinguisher, anyway.

Bob shrugged to Sid's question. Bob didn't talk because he didn't want to talk. He was an introverted man, kind of. Then again, perhaps it was more a force of habit being that he'd pretty much had Jay to talk for him as long as he could remember. To talk in profanity laced rants. Jay was perfect in that way because that was just how fucking Bob thought.

Sid waved Bob on and Bob envisioned L's fucking face on the cooler as he chucked a couple off in rapid succession. Surprisingly from what he could hear he hit the damned thing pretty good. Poking his head back up again he surveyed the damage with a grin.

Fucking A.

"One more hit, you reckon?" Sid asked, practically shaking with anticipation. The glass looked it like was ready to drop, for sure.

Sid stood up and pulled his arm back, focusing hard on the glass. He superimposed the Mad Twatter's face there and grinned. I win, Twatter, he thought and chucked the last tin of tobacco.

The glass shattering was the most beautiful sound Sid had heard since...well, Cass moaning when they were fucking, he supposed, but in any case...it was music to his ears. Still, he ducked down as the glass rained onto the floor and a few of the packages tumbled out of the case. There was no sound of a ninja star being released this time.

Sid's face broke out into a bright, childlike grin and he looked back at Bob. "Let there be spliff!" he shouted triumphantly, getting to his feet and all but salivating as he looked over the massive amount of marijuana now - finally - readily available. "Oi, look for some papers, yeah?" he asked Bob and started toward the case, careful not to touch its sides as he picked up one of the packages and lifted it to sniff. Fucking glorious, that was!

Bob nodded to Sid's suggestion that one more hit would be the final blow to the cooler. In fact he was nodding emphatically. Just throw the fucking can! he thought, becoming gleeful as he watched Sid line up his shot and fire.

The sound of glass falling to the fucking floor sounded even better than Morris Day and the Motherfucking Time. It was fucking epic. That sound meant fucking freedom and normalcy and all that fucking shit that he wanted so desperately.

Bob watched as Sid went up and started clawing at the shit. He wanted to do the same down thing, except he was just so fucking stunned. Bob looked around. Papers? There weren't any fucking papers. You know what? He was going to fucking hollow out a cigarette because he was just that fucking desperate. Fuck that. He was going to hollow out a cigar. Approaching the cooler Bob offered the Brit the options. Cigs or Cigar? he asked, holding up one in each hand. He knew what he was picking.

When Sid had taken what he felt was his fair share of spliff - four bricks; he could come back for more later if he needed to...this would last a while - he looked up at Bob. "Bollocks, there's gotta be papers somewhere, we'll run out of those right quick, but for now...the cigar, mate," he replied with a big grin on his face. Kid at Christmas, that was Sid.

Rather than take Bob's cigar, Sid headed back behind the counter, dropping his bricks of weed onto it when he got there, and took a package of Macanudos. "Cheers, mate!" he all but chirped as he pulled open the tin and got to work hollowing out one of the cigars in there. His hands made quick, automatic work of it and his eyes scanned the surroundings. There had to be rolling papers...there were cans of loose tobacco; why would they be there if there wasn't any papers to roll the stuff into?

Frowning when he couldn't find them and too damn excited to get down to it, Sid decided he'd look after he finished a joint. Joint? Maybe it was a different name when it was so bloody gigantic... He'd ask, except he was too distracted to care.

Lining the pot up on the open and now empty cigar paper, Sid made quick work of rolling it up, licking the edge of the paper and sliding his finger along the new seam to hold it in place. Then, he held it up to his lips, struck his lighter, and cocked his eyebrows at Bob as he took his first hit. "Oh, that's the stuff, mate. Good shit!" he said in a choked voice as he held in the breath until he couldn't anymore.

This was a very important moment for Bob. He could turn left: Staying true to his friends of Bill W. and ignore the weed that smelt so wonderful; or he could turn right and soothe his pain and anguish and feel like he was right back at the Quick Stop. The real fucking Quick Stop. Back in the day before fucking probation, before God showed up, and before the fucking trip to Schermer.

Fuck, all Bob wanted to was relax.

If he was going to fall off the fucking wagon, this was an appropriate situation to do it in, he supposed. It wasn't like he was just doing it to do it -- he was under a shitload of stress!

With practiced care, Bob managed to extract the tobacco from the cigar and carefully replace it with a shit ton of glorious weed. He could taste the fucking cloud already. Taking up his lighter with a tip of it to Sid, he lit the end and started on his way to blissful happiness with the puff that followed. Long and slow and held deep with a delicious burn, Bob savored the taste and the feeling.

God he fucking missed cannabis.

"This is fucking brilliant," Sid said, grinning lazily as he took another hit. His eyes moved over the different things behind the counter and finally, they landed on what he'd been looking for. "Safe," he said under his breath, reaching out and grabbing one of the packages of cigarette rolling papers. "Oi," he said, holding the pack up for Bob to see and then gesturing toward the rest of the packages, so that he would know where they were, should anyone need them after Sid left for the theater.

Slowly, Sid made his way back around to the front of the counter and leaned against it, letting himself slide down to sit on the floor. "This is bloody good shit," he mused. Sid hadn't felt this mellow in what seemed like an age. "Works fast..." he observed.

Halfway through the blunt, he looked back up at Bob, tearing his eyes away from a dust bunny on the floor forcefully. "If I go back to the theatre and a bird called Jenny comes in asking for some of this, you'll make sure she gets it and let her know where to find me, yeah?" he asked. "I mean, seeing as how you don't talk," he added dumbly.

Sid was right. It was fucking brilliant. This was the best thing that had happened to him hear yet aside from running into fucking Jay. This was better than laughing his ass off with Cheryl in the fucking pit. This was just fucking priceless. The only way it could be fucking better is if he had L fucking wrapped up in a pink-tutu singing 'I feel pretty.'

Bob too a long, slow pull and held the smoke long and deep in his fucking lungs. It'd been too fucking long since he'd last had a smoke. God he fucking missed it. He didn't realize how much he missed it until his mind started to slow down and turn gloriously happy. God it was amazing.

Bob nodded to Sid's question. He could give some chick some papers and point to the theater on the map. No problem. Look, Bob was even fucking giving a big old thumbs up - you knew everything was going to be OK.

Another pull. Good fucking shit. Good mother fucking shit.

The world was sluggish and Sid was pleasantly relaxed, eyelids at half mast as he pulled on the blunt again. His eyes rested back on the dust bunny on the floor and he sat beside Bob silently, a lazy half-grin spread over his lips. "Totally worth the ninja star to the face," he drawled.

He sat beside Bob, moving minimally, until the blunt had become a roach. Finally, he got to his feet very slowly, dropping the roach onto the floor and toeing it out with his sneaker. "Safe..." he breathed. "Right, then, I'm going. Give her a brick of spliff, some papers, and send her my way if she comes," he said as he rounded the counter again and took up his own bricks of marijuana as well as a package of rolling papers.

"Pleasure doing business with you, mate," Sid joked, grinning again as he came back out from behind the counter and made his way to the refrigerators, taking a warm soda and snagging a bag of crisps on his way back to the door. "Enjoy, yeah?" he asked, giving Bob a nod and a smile before heading out of the petrol station to make his way back to the theatre. Today...was a lovely, lovely day.
