First date

'Man, I can't believe you two have both got kids now. Didn't expect this shit for, like, another 10 years. Yet here's me, still single!'

'You don't even want 'em, do you?'

'Nah. Too much responsibility. The possible damage to my undercarriage. And, y'know, it'd require a penis. I don't do penises.'

'Ah, to be bisexual and find all kinds of genitalia appealing.'

'Unless you've been cheating on Ellis, you're still only getting one type.'

'Well yeah, but that doesn't mean I've lost interest in women. I don't mind observing from a distance.'

'As long as that only applies to people on a screen and not in real life.'

'Hey, what kind of pervert do you think I am?'

'Don't make me answer that, Heath.'

'Oh, you suck. Anyway, kids aren't for everyone. You enjoy your freedom, Ive.'

'I plan to! Hey, did you know Topaz's sister is in Hell's Light?'

'Whoa, seriously?'

'Yeah! We got talking about them the other night. The red haired chick on keyboards.'

'That's awesome. We ought to get Topaz to bring her over sometime so we can meet her. Maybe she could give us some advice on how to hit it big.'

'Yeah, that'd be cool. From what Topaz was saying, it sounds like they hardly get to see her. She's based abroad a lot of the time. Still, you'd think she'd come to Sunset Valley at some point, right?'

'Remind me to check out their tour dates at some point. They've gotta come to our area eventually.'

'If you're not gonna be too busy being a daddy.'

'Hey, I've still got my ambition. Mattie comes first, obviously, but the dream isn't entirely dead. Besides, even if we don't get anywhere, it's still fun just getting to play locally.'

'I started being much happier once I kept my expectations in check, at least. Even so, I'm with Logan. Life is good the way it is.'

'Of course you fuckers would say that. Neither of you are fat and single.'

'Aww, Ivy, there's a girl out there for you somewhere!'

'And you're still sexy. I'm a fucking twig and I still managed to find someone! All bodies are beautiful.'

'Aw, you guys. I appreciate that.'

'Even though you are the drummer.'

'What's that supposed to mean?'

'Who ever heard of a drummer picking up chicks?'

'Hey, Heath, did you ever hear this joke?'

'Which one?'

'You?'

'Hey!'

'No, amazingly, it's a different one. What's black and blue and lays in a ditch?'

'Dunno.'

'The singer who made too many drummer jokes.'

'Oh yeah. That one.'

'Hey, Charon!'

'Whoa, what happened? Are you okay, Jude?'

'Yeah, I'm fine. Took a bit of a hit during wrestling training. Nothing to worry about.'

'You sure? That's one hell of a shiner.'

'Occupational hazard. It happens. How're you?'

'Yeah, I'm good. Better for seeing you.'

'Aww, you too. Sorry I look rough. It looks stupid, but I tried to put makeup on the other eye. I thought I should still make an effort, with it being a date and all.'

'Bruise or no bruise, makeup or no makeup, you still look sexy. Guess I'll just have to kiss it better, huh?'

'I'd like that! I won't say no to more kisses. What do you wanna do tonight then?'

'See a film then grab something to eat? Maybe at Raya's place? If there's room left after popcorn.'

'Sure there will be! You underestimate my eating powers. Sounds great. Lead the way.'

'Are you really sure you're okay? How're things at home?'

'Oh, they're fine. Who cares about that now, anyway? I just wanna have a good night with my new boyfriend. We can get one of those double seats at the cinema and cuddle up like a couple of saps.'

'Sure. I'd love to.'
