The one you like the most.

[curiouscat]

...well, I like different things about them.

Also it's really not two. It's more. I just wanted to simplify things.

[munkustrap]

So there's several girls you all like an equal amount for different reasons and you can't pick which one?

Your life annoys me sometimes.

[curiouscat]

Yeah, I don't know, they all have their fun moments.

How's that annoying to you?

[munkustrap]

Surely you like one more than the others.

Because that's the biggest issue in your life right now, which one of those many attractive and wonderful women do you want. You want to trade lives? I've been in a meeting for eight hours, someone stole my briefcase and my girlfriend is shacked up with my mortal enemy.

[curiouscat]

Eh, I don't know. Might just keep them all for a while longer.

Why didn't you just leave that meeting? Sounds boring. And you need a different girlfriend. Want one?

[munkustrap]

Of course you will, you can never make up your mind.

Because it's important and I had to, I'm an adult and I have a job so I have to attend meetings and give a shit. Unlike the rest of my colleagues. And no, I don't want one of your cast-offs.

[curiouscat]

We'll find you one that never wanted me! Somehow. I know some.

Well. We'll find a straight girl that never wanted me somewhere.

And aren't you the boss? Just leave, who's going to fire you?

[munkustrap]

I don't really want to date right now. Tends to end badly for me.

That's not the point, how to I turn a profit and motivate my team if I don't even turn up to my own meetings? And technically no, I don't so much own it as run it. I have a boss but my boss is very much a pointless figurehead. Just existing to get money.

Like a leech.

[curiouscat]

How about this time when she comes back to you, you tell her to get lost?

Do another job if this one's no fun for you!

Father called me a leech last week, then I told him how much I made in CD sales this month, that was fun.

[munkustrap]

I will. Maybe. Probably. Depends how desperate and pathetic I am and I am often very much both.

I like my job, I get to tell people what to do and they have to do it. If they ignore me or do it wrong, I can fire them. That's fun! Just meetings are dull.

You should consider getting a proper job but admittedly, that'll never happen.

[curiouscat]

She doesn't deserve you. You know that! What's so special about her?

Meetings are incredibly dull. My agent and I had one yesterday and before she started making out with me I was so bored.

Why would I consider that? Give me one good reason.

[munkustrap]

She was my first love and unlike you, I just don't get over stuff like that so fast. We were on and off for a long time, she's a big part of my life.

... That's not a meeting, that's just insanely unprofessional!

More stability. More money.

[curiouscat]

I'm not telling you to cut her out of your life, but maybe stop wanting to marry her.

Maybe. But it was very productive, I can tell you that much.

More money? Do I have to tell you how much I'm making too? I've more than I can spend by just buying whatever I want whenever I want it, so that seems amble.

[munkustrap]

I couldn't ever just be friend with her. She means too much to me.

Please don't tell me any more than that.

I know how much you have, I do your taxes for you. You have plenty but you could have your source of income cut, you have no savings so one day, you could still go bust. A lot of famous rockstars do, you know?

[curiouscat]

Then just stop seeing her, that'd be smarter anyway.

Then I can be a stripper. I did that once, made tons. Got laid. Pretty cool gig.

[munkustrap]

I know but I can't, how can I stop seeing her? She's a Jellicle. We see each other for the ball every year.

Please don't ever do that again, I'd rather pay you to do nothing than let you do that.

[curiouscat]

If you want me to keep you away from her during the ball, I can do that. No problem. I can snub her all day long if you need me to.

...why?

[munkustrap]

That won't achieve a thing and I very much doubt you could keep her away from me. She's the only one I care to dance with anyway.

Because you're my little brother and I don't want to think of you stripping for weird old perverts and horny barely-legal girls.

[curiouscat]

Really? Try dancing with Mistoffelees, you have similar styles.

Now you're complaining, but when I bought you a birthday present from the money you were happy. Anyway, they were all perfectly legal. I wasn't quite.

[munkustrap]

I'm not dancing with your maybe-boyfriend. All my money says you'll get jealous and butt in anyway.

No, if I recall correctly, I asked you if it was stripper money and told you to get a better job for my present instead. Which you did. Kind of.

You were a little kid still and you took off your clothes for money. It was horrifying. I called the cops like five times.

[curiouscat]

...that does sound like me. Well, dance with anyone but her, literally. Or dance with her, sleep with her, play with her, stop letting her play with you.

I don't actually remember, but I'm sure my gift was great!

Wasn't my fault, father cut off my allowance. I'm very expensive, I needed the money.

[munkustrap]

I don't play with people, I'm not that sort of person. I just don't know how to deal with her, doesn't mean I'll resort to petty tactics.

You did get me a rather nice watch, I still use it.

You could have just asked for my money, I had a lot of it, given I wisely chose to have a real job and study to get said job. I could have helped.

[curiouscat]

Tell her 'no'. That'd be a start. What does she do, hypnotize you?

I stripped for the greater good, see?

I was sixteen, Munkustrap, I needed money, I got it. Worked for me, don't know what the issue is. I didn't need help!

[munkustrap]

... Kind of. I don't know! I always think I'll be strong and totally dismiss her and then I see her and I just want her. Loves a cruel bitch sometimes.

No you didn't! I could have gotten myself a watch.

You did because you were a stripper at sixteen. That was awful! No kid should do that.
