Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Hey! Maybe there will be a Bunny Slounge.

I'm desperately jealous of you, shrift. I wanna work in name-recognition soft core porn in a completely non-porny role.

Well, I will when I wake up. Right now I'm just seeing the Geek Squad in bunny outfits.

Like, literally? Because maybe you really do need to get some sleep.

Thinking get-the-job thoughts for you, shrift. Refraining from porn jokes at your expense.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Oh god. I feel like I'm trying to breathe while face-down in mud.

I hate this shit.

Don't be jealous, ita. Haven't got the job yet! I am attempting to remain calm and treat this like a very entertaining adventure.

ETA: What I mean is, name-recognition soft core porn could still reject me!

Refraining from porn jokes at your expense.

I'm hoping you guys will do a porn joke free for all in my honor this afternoon. I think it's the only way I'll get through the interview without turning into a twelve-year-old boy.

But you'll always have fandom.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

What I mean is, name-recognition soft core porn could still reject me!

I do not like this reality. It robs you of a better job and us of waaaay too much joke opportunity.

and let's be honest. Shrift getting this job is as much about our ability to joke as it is about her ability to pay for Au Bon Pain breakfast and coffee.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Hey! Maybe there will be a Bunny Slounge.

Damn, ita beat me to it. I was going to ask if shrift could slounge in one of those costumes without needing a corset.
