Contracted - Dead Hopes and Dreams

Parker continued to watch Petra until she spoke, expecting the negativity that did in fact come from her. He had known her long enough to interpret her body language, and something about this didn't make her happy. When she finally came out with it, After she finished, the light laugh he was so familiar with made the statement seem so much less serious. He looked between the two boys with a raised eyebrow as Petra proceeded into the kitchen for their opinions. He certainly see it as the train wreck it the guitarist saw it as. "As the opening band to the main act, I doubt too many people will be disappointed. Besides, these sorts of things happen all the time; a microphone-explanation by a stage host about the unavoidable absence of TNC and we're golden." Parker truly believed that he was right, but he also knew he had a knack for being wrong.

"'A lot' hardly covers it," he responded, referring to their workload to prepare for the show. Feeling the stress build up from all of the things waiting ahead, Parker's hands idly slipped into his pocket to three bottle-free orange pills which he quickly and discretely slipped into his mouth with his next bite of pizza. He wanted to feel all this would turn out alright, but he was never too invested in his intuitions.

Sorry that it took so long guys. I'm getting sick or something, and "sick" for me is a little worse than it is for people who AREN'T going through chemotherapy. xD

How is everyone? How's the job, Lee Lee?

I posted again after Lee Lee 'cause I was bored, guys. XD

Eying Petra's feet on Matt's lap, Parker took a drink. It was foolish for him to be bothered by something so innocent, especially considering there was nothing left between the guitarist and himself, but Parker had always been a slave to his emotions which caused many overreactions and inner wars between said emotions and his common sense. This would often lead to outbursts, as it would with anyone with such a short fuse, For a few years now, though, he had been able to keep it under control, around his friends especially.

Taking a sip of his Root Beer, he moved his hard stare elsewhere towards Søren and his dramatic act of faux betrayal, moving the cup away long enough for a small chuckle at his best friend's joking act. Shaking his head and continuing his drink, his eyes opened wide as they trained on Matt, the issue with Petra barely tugging at his mind now. As Matt spoke, Parker had to keep stifling his own interruptions from his excitement until finally he had his chance to speak. "Um, hell yes?!" He said excitedly, thankful that no pizza spewed from his mouth just as his words did. "This is a huge opportunity for us!" He was practically spilling his drink now. Looking over to Søren, he quickly agreed. "Yes, yes! Hopefully people will want to buy our CDs..." He paused for a moment. "Even if they don't exactly have proper covers." He laughed to himself, still entirely too excited. He looked to Petra with sparkling eyes, remembering all their talks about this exact kind of opportunity. He could only hoped she'd be excited as he was.

He doesn't need luck. If you're looking for his posts this weekend, I can tell you he doesn't have time, but what he does have is a very particular set of cards.... cards he's acquired over a (not so long) career. Cards that have made him a nightmare to people in his format.

That's as far as I can take the reference. XD

What kind of training? :o

This scene is just bringing weird responses out of all of you.. XD Matt's trying to blow a pepperoni from in his throat out of his nose, Søren's being overly dramatic and too jumpy, and Petra's using her feet to apparently half-ass flirt with Matt.

You're making Parker feel awfully normal, guys. XD
