[The device is sitting on the coffee table in Lucy's living room. She's got a buffet of 'tail gate' food laid out including hot wings, cheese fries, chips, salsa, chili cheese dogs and red velvet cupcakes. There's also a cooler full of beer and sodas sitting next to the coffee table. The TV is showing a football--It's a black market DVD of the 2011 University of Alabama Football Season. This is game one Bama vs Kent State.

Lucy is perched on the edge of the couch wearing a crimson tide football jersey, a pair of Tide sweats and a black and white houndstooth fedora. She's got a red A painted on her face.]

Oh come on! My mother holds more than that! You can't even call that holding!

[She glances at the device with a beaming smile.]

Tailgate party at my house to watch the Tide vs Kent State. We should slaughter the guys. It's like warm up. Anyway, everyone is invited. Come and enjoy food and beer and football. It's what Saturdays were made for.

Very much metaphorical. I mean...kind of. I expect us to win by a lot.

Are you getting tv from back home?

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

Not exactly. It's a black market DVD with the entire 2011-2012 season on it. I could watch it all in one go if I wanted but it's more fun to do it every week as the game is happening back home.

[dulcisnuntius.livejournal.com]

Where'd you get the DVD from?

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

The Black Market in the Underground. I had a friend a long time ago get me one and he's gone but he told me where to get them from. They're not cheap or easy to get but you can get dvds from your world. Anything televised.

[dulcisnuntius.livejournal.com]

It must be pretty important to you, then.

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

Yeah. It's always been...something my family and I did together and then it was something I did with my friends and...football is a religion in my home. Bear Bryant ranks right up there with God.

So would it be pathetically early of me to show up now, or do I have to wait 15 minutes so as to remain cool?

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

It would be wonderful for you to show up now and help me set out all this food. You'd be a saint or maybe an angel.

[dulcisnuntius.livejournal.com]

I deal with being one of those.

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it was sort of a joke. It sounded better in my head.

[dulcisnuntius.livejournal.com]

It was totally funny!

I'll be there in about five. I need to get an appropriate 'watching football' outfit together.

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

I'll see you in a few then!
