Listen Curly Q, the less people know about the stupid sailor suit, the better, capiche?
Knowing you, you're gonna spill to someone, so just tell me what it'll cost to not go blabbering to all the hot chicks in the area? I have a reputation to maintain, MJ.
And have your ass coming to bother me all day? Well I guess that's not so bad, ice cream's on me. As long as you keep your trap shut about it and the suit
I wonder if they have anything on Scoops Ahoy, man if they knew half of what goes on here they'd have a whole exhibit on us.
[ He hits send before he really realizes that he's revealing that there's some weird ass stuff going on underneath this shop. Another text to throw her off a bit. ]
[ wow, steve. that is a damning thing to say about one's own workplace. how curious. mj almost wants to chalk it up to steve being a drama queen with his usual exaggerations buuut —
for now, she'll just lock away this little bit of info in the back of her mind. ]
there was a dippin' dots salesman whose mother died in his car cause he left the dry ice out in the backseat for too long. cause of death is asphyxiation from dry ice, but still somewhat ice cream related.
[ He probably won't say anything to bring it back up later. Or at least, he hopes. ]
Alright, alright, but still related though. So you're telling me if I wanna off a dude, all I have to do is head to the back and grab some of the dry ice we keep, and place it in his car?
Look I'm not saying we do it, but if anyone you hate deserves it, I got plenty of dry ice.
[ sometimes scary and other times a charmer, huh? ]
you're not too bad yourself
[ she almost unsends that but decides to let it be. whatever. ]
there's this lead i have about this guy (or girl, not ruling that out yet) that goes around at night, carrying a bat and taking care of bad guys downtown. think it's some new vigilante hero type. have you heard of them?
[ Huh, a bat? That's Steve's weapon of choice, even better if it has some nails hammered in to it. ]
Bad guys downtown? Haven't heard of them, but I have a bat, and they sound like they have faces. Maybe we can connect the two? Not that I'm a vigilante. What do you know about it?
[ After dealing with a Demogorgon, small time punks are no match for Steve, not that he's the vigilante. At least as far as Michelle knows. ]
Where'd you hear that? Our school seems pretty far fetched for some hero to come from.
[ Ok yeah, he can't let MJ get too close to this without keeping an eye on her. ]
Yeah, I'm in.
[ They'll just have to look out for the bad guys, and if or more likely when our bat wielding hero doesn't show, Steve will at least have his bat. Not that he's the hero in question... ]
yeah? you don't think jerome from science class can do some hero-type stuff if he wanted to?
he's pretty good with his chemicals
[ jerome from science class would probably wet his pants if he were in a situation where he had to face off a couple of bad guys. probably. he's not completely crossed off mj's list though. ]
i have my sources
but i can let you in on 'em for a box of pizza
[ if they were gonna be patrolling downtown, they should have something to eat. ]

[ ha ha ha ha ]
yeah yeah i won't say anything. i'll just hit up your little customers with some fun facts

i wanna go there someday

So, what's the weirdest death caused by it?

i'm not telling you that you should off someone by suffocating them with dry ice in their car. just saying that's what happens
[ gotta keep herself free from liability here. who knows what kind of crazy shit steve gets into when she's not looking? ]
i appreciate the intent, scoopy. you working a shift today?
no subject
[ He wonders about and prays for the people who aren't... ]
Headed there right now, coming to collect?
no subject
[ because that's what every girl wants to hear. ]
nah, just checking. wouldn't wanna get you in trouble for texting in between scoops
let me know when you're off
no subject
I said sometimes. Other times you can be a real charmer.
[ Could be sarcastic, could be genuine, it's Steve, so it's somehow both. ]
I've only got an hour left, what'd you have in mind?

don't have much on the bad guys. more curious about our bat wielding hero. i heard they could be from our school.
i don't plan on revealing who they are if we're able to figure it out but i am curious to see what they're really up to.
you in to help me find out?
